It doesn't matter if you're a TV presenter from London or a little kid from a Romanian village...we can always find some common ground through John Cena
This was genuinely my most favorite episode of Top Gear and still is. It just has everything going for it, and well...I'm a bit biased because I love my country of Romania and to see others love it a lot.
@@solidfuel0 It really depends of ths time of the particular day tbh. When I was there, early morning was fine, barely any people. By noon, it was like a flipping festival.
I watched this when I was in college and the iconic scene where a CD on Hammond’s face dropped along with the eerie sound while he is looking up. Kudos to the editors!
The fact that they drove through Syria problem free (minus James head gash) and Burma yet when they drove through the US they almost got stoned to death is hilarious @@chai1513
@@chai1513 This TG era was great because this stuff was fresh and new but the 'almost die' moment I assume from the petrol station 'red neck' incident was scripted just like the non-existent collision in this at 1:20
These blokes are already in their 60s now (Hammond is 54 but still quite old) Let them retire. We can still watch the old clips. May and Hammond are still active on their TH-cam channel though.
Come to Romania and you will see that is a very safe country. Unfortunately a lot of people from deferent countries think that Romania is not safe, but after you visit Romania i want to know if you think the same
I do indeed love some Jeremy metaphors but in this case he wasn't joking. roughly six million kilograms (5,900 long tons; 6,600 short tons) of dynamite
Seems funny to see a helicopter doing all the flybys. Now they'll just send up a drone for a tiny fraction of the price. _That aside. He was a pretty good chopper pilot!_ 👍

No.
Yet no one's been able to see him
Fun Fact: John Cena was featured in one of the shots!
Mr invisible 😂😂😂
Yeah too bad we can’t see him although can feel his force with us
0:55 Hammond could see into the future lol
Grand Tour!
Are you aware that these are called GT cars, and that GT stands for "Grand Tour"?

Producers: "We need closeup shots"
Chad Romanian Pilot: "Say no more" 8:41
Heli pilots are a different breed.
1:06 insurance: "YOU HIT A WHAT???"
Ahahaha like that Dacia had insurance. Cute 🤣
A car.
they were gypsies. there's no way the Dacia was insured
Been there this year because I saw this as a kid... it was truly special.
Same! It was breathtaking in person
Is crowded road or empty?

Top Gear Classic should upload the USA Special... No reason of course.
Everybody is really fat, everybody is really stupid and everybody is really rude... It is not a holiday programme it is the truth 😎📢
Which one though?

BBC giving the grand tour some free advertising lmao
Hats off to the editor's. 🙌 They did an AWESOME job in that Era. Incredibly well 🔥
I still find it funny that said "classic Dacia" was as new as the exotics they were driving
Didn’t you know? all Dacias are classics
@HG-wl2fm the cn4 Dacia 1310 was produced until 2006

Goddamn the dbs is one of the most beautiful cars evver built
All three were beautiful
That DBS is still one of the best looking of the 3 cars.
0:52 So that's where the name Grand Tour originated from!
We NEED THEM BACK!!!!!
Edit: never had this many likes ❤️
These blokes are already in their 60s now (Hammond is 54 but still quite old)

May and Hammond are still active on their TH-cam channel though.
Gotta be one of the best episodes
The thumbnail is amazing.
This by far my favourite episode from back in the day
You are the legend of car documentaries. None can top you
1080p feels wierd really wierd 😂😂😂
indeed so many years now i got used to 240p ahhahahahaha

Thank you guys for giving me so much happiness over the past few decades 💕
Great job top gear 👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 from tudora Botoșani Romania 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
Damn...this was the best show BBC have produced ever.
Last week I drove the transfagarasan because of this episode. It is indeed better then the stelvio!
Gold era
Now this is top gear classic lol. I remember watching this as a little kid. I loved the Lambo.
My first time enjoying these in 1080p
8:52 he said it HE SAID THE WORD
I can't choose which car is more beautiful they are all so pretty
I love the Ferrari Cali
I miss the aerial shots when they used helicopters instead of drones, looks so much better
Agree heli cam make more dramatic than drones
nah drone is better and cheaper too
Why are helicopter shots better?
@@tomkandy my guess is the tele lenses used and the movement feels more weighty
@@tomkandy and I get that just for the rent of the chopper for a day you can buy a decent drone.
Watching these 3 never gets old or boring 😂
Ferrari California, Lamborghini Gallardo, Aston Martin DBS Volante
Fun fact this was from the first HD Episode that wasn't a special (That was the Polar special if counting the special)
Surprised nothing was stolen

2:58 Chad James May as usual built different when it comes to enjoying life
The best driving road is the Forest road from the pub back home. We call it Bierstraße.
2:52 Hammond really needed that drink
Reposted. But who cares?! That's what we always likes about TG.
I want an episode where James is in the new Vanquish, Jeremy in the Revuelto and Richard in the 12 Cylindri

2:36 bruh back in the day, these Swiss cana teas never hit they just tasted like grass and that was that 😂
They're all so bloody young!
What car would you take on the Transfagarasan Highway?
mx-5, preferably the RF
Lexus LFA or porsche Carrera GT
Reliant robin
Aston Martin
@@HelloJamesBond You would die after the first corner lol
Just posted my video on that road. Cold means no traffic and that's what fun is
Sometimes it takes being battered across the head, scratched and slept on to reach the greatest heights!
Watching this after Chris Slix posted a video driving on this 🛣️
"Plum liqueur and cannabis" 😂
If you even remotely enjoy driving, you have to drive the Transfagarasan. Also, the Transalpina, the highest road in Europe.
Plum liqueur and cannabis. 🏆
U can't see me 0:39 ❤
2:57 why are they laughing? is it a reference to a previous special
no, he mixed the drinks.
Romania! The land of my ancestors
8:45 *Seascrest County PD enter chat*

I want one of those wool blankets
It’s rumored John Cena was actually in Hammond’s passenger seat…
That cannabis tea they drink is called Chillo now and it contains no THC. Has anyone here ever had it?
the guy who had the accident with lambo,,, his insurance company must be furious
Is that Borat's home town: Town of Kuzcek??
0:39 Several years later. We can see his name. John Cena
I think is where the word Grand Tour was invented
Can we have a road like that in the UK pls?
BBC milking the talented guys they fired. 😂
One thing I never understood in this episode, why were Hammond and May mad at Clarkson about them sleeping next to the dam?
0:54 Foreshadowing incoming
0:52 certainly a what?
I wonder how much they paid for TopGears’ premium back in those days considering the ease of destruction here 😂😂
Glad John Cena was at least mentioned.
what episode was this
Episode and series no.?
S14 E1
John Cena!! Worldwide love for the goat
Someday, i will make my channel as entertaining as this❤
I don't believe for a second that they slept in their cars..
Plum liqueur and cannabis 😂

That Ferrari hasn't aged well has it. It's a bit frumpy looking.
