"Richard really did have a size problem..... and his van was pretty small as well"
This cracked me up so much
U Wot M8? LMAO
Dw
U Wot M8? Ö
Lol
U Wot M8? P
Imagine driving down the motorway when a Transit van comes up behind with the driver halfway out the window trying to get as close as possible
I would think I am in a Bond, Bourne or Mission Impossible film. xD
That’s not happened to you?
Trainwreck727 quite nearly, but it doesnt have to be a van it’s everyone crammed up your ass in Florida
Lol when I saw that part i laughed at ur comment hahah
I will never have a van
"James was having problems with his illegal immigrant .. so he decided to employ him" Subtle social commentary there haha
James really is a practical man.
wouldnt get away with that joke in todays media. SJW's would be crying red murder about how racist it is.
Silent Gamer2015 They did cry murder about it. That’s why it was funny.
Odin Satanas Obesity changes the brain’s inherent chemistry, making it very hard to stop eating
So it is that hard to “just eat a little less”
"get in the back, you owe me 20 grand"
Clarkson: "I don't like manual labor"
2020: *Becomes a farmer*
Rich people farming is different from regular farming
@@sayno2lolzisback Matt Baker as a perfect example.....
@@smoketinytom Most of my family are farmers and it's not this romantic, idyllic life of looking after pigs and selling mustard. Its bloody, tough, and never ending with little reward. I was rubbish at it lol
@@sayno2lolzisback the farm show showed this pritty well
tbf his "farming" is far from actual farming. its so modern and the labor side comes from extremely massive area with very few worker tending it
"Even the cameraman was used to things much quicker than this" XD
Neato i
Toxfrot خ٠ت
Cameraman: shoots the camera forward to fast
funnier than the new top gear
they filmed me while eff ing your mum, i finished way early
I laughed when the camera man overshot the start lol.
me to
+jumbodrawn A bit of a derp moment that.
Funniest part
Same
jumbodrawn yeah
the cameraman was funnier than the new top gear
LOL
Haha, shit you're right
Wind Rift
To me the new top gear racing is like watching snails race around the Nurburgring, it's boring
Wind Rift I know XD
“Get in the back, hide under the mattress, and you owe me 20 grand.” These guys r just too funny
this episode is filled with awesome one liners, too many too mention!
No worries, we all just watched and heard it.
@Dan da man still got it wrong even though you watched it 🤣
"i wasn't expecting much...unlike our cameraman who used to filming much faster stuff than this." ahahahaa :D so good!!!
Je 54t4 5yyy
what about the illegal immigrants ?
+rhetorical ABM Sprint The illegal immigrants are probably getting buttfucked in Belmarsh Prison, while our taxes pay for their stay in there. >:(
2:09 'Richard really did have a size problem, and his van was pretty smal too' IM DYING HAHAHA
*small aswell
@@Zak-ob5ze Don't be that guy...
@@jeek3452 ok
i feel like these guys could make a snail race exciting
they would probably put engines in em with aerodynamics in the back and maybe a parachute in the back for breaks aswell
Sean Brennan Jeremy would probably mount a XJ2 or a W16 engine onto a snail just like what he did on the transit xD
Has Communism Ever Produced A Good Car? proved they did.
That honestly should have been a challenge at one point.
Jeremy would put a v8 and yell powaaaa
one thing I dislike when top gear upload vids, they remove the bit when they introduce what they've bought
And change all the music
Music changes are for licensing reasons. And they cut stuff out because they want you to pay to watch it all.
"James, are you filiming with us today or are you moving house?"
What's impressive is how Jeremy got a perfect plate in the Van without shattering it. 2:49
0:58 “Goodbye, May!”
*Sound of Hell Opening*
he actually said goodbye mate
is James driving a chevy LMAO
@@GuninGames no. Its an LDV convoy
Day 16 into Quarantine: I’m crying over how funny it was when the camera man shot ahead of the cars.
Ive watched this too much in quarantine
Paul Mummery Ive watched this way too much in general.
Yeah same
the cameraman was funnier than the new top gear
Luckily it’s still funny watching it every day into almost day 356 into Quarantine
"Richard really did have a size problem! And his van was small as well."
hahahah
Sahil Bhatia *Lightweight eh.*
richard pp small
this is Jeffery, this is Ian, this is Steven.. hahahahahaha hilarious
Hehe
Oops I'm 7 years late
The way that May starts walking at 6:37 is absolutely hilarious 🚶🏼♂️
@SuperCarGaming150 LMAO - literally
Watching these in 2024 and seeing the trio in their prime and so young is strangely emotional. It’s a sad reality that we aren’t ever going to get a show quite like this. These three are the most unique and amazing TV presenters in history.
0:39 This has got to be one of my favorite moments in all of Top Gear and Grand Tour. It's just so good.
That tailgating challenge is pure genius in so many levels
I feel like it actually has inspired Transit van drivers to do that on non dual carriageways when people are already at the speed limit. It’s happened to me serval times to and from work and though I didn’t have that laser for exact gap, if I had to brake suddenly because of a sudden traffic light change etc they’d hit which is part of why I have a dash cam
@@filledwithvariousknowledge2747 Van drivers were already known for doing it before the challenge.
James naming his spanners: "this is Jeff, this is steven...." hahahaha!!!
"I'll tell you what though. We're no worse than the last removal people I used."
"So, the next challenge then."
I assume that they just disappeared with all of James's stuff, that's the only thing worse than what those 3 did.
"James was having problems with his illegal immigrant."
"So he decided to employ him."
That drag race seems unrealistic. Vans are the fastest vehicles on British roads!
Nah, the fastest vehicles on British roads are those little black taxis.
Uh, yeah. But acceleration doesn't count - it's the way they're driven.
+puskascat Did you misspell Veyron?
It's the speed at which they're driven rather than the speed of which they are capable that makes them the fastest.
veyron is ugly old and slow lol
5:50 I like how James admits he’s already lost that challenge😂
6:15 Captain Slow living up to his name there 😂😂😂
It cracks me when the camera man moves faster than the vans. Not used to slow moving vehicles.
0:58 James is enjoying his roaring 2.5L Engine XD
Loved it when Richard won: "WANKERS!!!... oh, where did that come from?!?"
:D
1:26
"@#$%&! Where did THAT come from?!"
LOL, Hammond.
@Game on Wankers I believe haha
Haha I was just about to say the same thing! :D
WANKERS! Where did THAT come from?! :D
I laughed so hard when Jeremy stuck his head outside his van during the tailgating challenge! 😂
"we're going to run out of runway before james gets anywhere near us"
LMAO!
Is it just me, or was James carrying a lot of mattresses on the back?
@@llody7777 Yes. But even without the mattresses he would’ve not been able to catch up due to how much heavier the van was than the Transit
4:36 "It's like being followed by a small insect!" I lost it so accurate xd
1:54 there's an opened red bull can 😂😂
And ??
The cameraman part hahaha
'That didn't break, that's didn't break, yes it did, that did' :D
"Does it measure in miles?" LMAO
"While the others set to work with spanners, I broke out my ingenuity"
I honestly thought, here comes the hammer😂 but it turns out to be a van😂😂
I always enjoy Jeremy's impression of James
"This is Geoffrey, this is Ian, this is Stephen..." lol
A little van fon a little man 😂😂
Top gear should really do a mystery challenge, give the guys £2000 each and tell them to get any car that they think will be able to stand up to everything the TG team throw at them and then give them random challenges that will test the guys vehicle choice
ellieisfit15 a Mazda Miata
Offroad Audi station wagon
Id try to get my hands on a Toyota Hilux unless I was in the states (which I am) then I'd get a second gen s10 with a 4.3 and a five speed
Volvo station wagon
They KIND of did that in the ‘unscripted’ Grand Tour episode
7:32 LOL the way James said "oh for Pete's sake" sounded amusing
1:46
Clarkson: “I don’t like manual labor”
Also Clarkson in 2020: “I bought a farm!”
“This is Geoffrey, this is Ian, this is Steven..”
😂😂😂
Loved how expecting the camera man was lol
And how excited he got winning the worlds slowest drag race was amazing
How do you say get in the front in Albanian? hahaha
+iCONICAACINOCi I am Albanian man!
+iCONICAACINOCi dil perpara :p
+iCONICAACINOCi Get në frontin
+Kabuli Arapi hahhahah,na permenden prap
Henri Cela na kan fiksim :p
"Richard really did have a size problem and his van was pretty small as we'll" 😂😂😂
4:55 “You can park a bus in that gap”😂😂😂😂 Imagine a bus actually that short you could park it in that🤣🤣
1:04 looks like Jeremy is riding on a million bumpers!🤣
“I’m no match for hamster look at his postage stamp GO” 😭😭😭
At 6:16 james is holding a cup and the is a hand on the window.. If you put it at x0.5 you'll see it
5:18 “You CANNOT see where the front is”
Clarkson, this is why modern cars of 2018+ have cameras on their front grilles. Take my 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SEL for example, we have 7 cameras on that car, all for parking and reversing it.
This was filmed during the 2000's. Are you saying that people during the 2000's should've predicted what cars would have in 2018+?
5:12 I love how Hammond says "Now thats a familiar sight" about Transit drivers.
2:07 Probably the funniest Top Gear joke... in the world!
Looking it for the third time I discovered that your selection on this Van's is in what you want.
1. If you want something fast but without many space buy hammond van
2. If you want to balance speed and space go with Jeremy's van
3. If you want to carry an entire house at the cost of speed go with May's van
6:30
"That's more manual labor"
I JUST CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!!!!!!!!!
Cap Slow is the best... They're ALL THE BEST !!! The Grand Tour FTW !
Odd observation I know but this is the only one of these track tests where they are just chilling out on the grass between challenges. Must have just been a very nice day. 😅
why are there 10 mattresses in may's truck during the tailgating challenge?
I think they loaded all the mattresses in his van after the loading challenge
Ddhfacetyy Nahh a few mattresses wouldn’t slow a van down
Ddhfacetyy Wouldn’t slow a 2.5 van like that
@Ddhfacetyy Your math isn't lining up, it would be somewhere around 50 pounds.
1:00 good memories of that sound as an early 00s child
6:53 Clarkson's genious, it's almost frightening
lol at the start.... the camera man took off... then went back hahaha
I just love the way James laughs before saying "I can't catch up"
Same
“Can I be excused this?” 🤣
1:04 when it been 3 months since she got to ride lmao😂😂
The tailgating challenge was too good😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really miss top gear
Bobby Ray Parris Scroll to the top of the page! your find your long lost Top Gear!
+Bobby Ray Parris Me too. However, Clarkson was a ticking time bomb waiting to get fired. Previous remarks and actions on camera leading up to him getting fired showed us that he was on borrowed time with the BBC. The end was near, even though it was hilarious at the time.
Cant watch it with those new protagonists, they dont bring the good content and the good jokes
Same here Bobby
MrSupercar55 come back
This is Geoffrey, this is Ian, this is Steven
James: Get on with it
2:04 onwards - what most couriers do with their parcels at depots or when loading their vehicles - why you get so many damages!
Jeremy had the best choice of van. The Ford Transit was part of my early childhood. Going to school, I had the Ford Transit as the school bus a few times-the mk3, the facelift and the mk4. We even had the LDV convoy as the school bus at one point.
dam bbc back at it again with the white vans
Omg.
+Dami Nooki Cringe.
Dami Nooki I cringe because bronies.
Dami Nooki im afraid of furries. they make me cringe. one kid cringed so hard he died. of cancer. so furies cause cancer. KILL FURIES KILL CANCER
+Martynas Augustinas Gecas They travel everywhere. They've even made it to TopGear. Rip
Died when Hammond swore, his reaction though!
2:10
“Richard really did have a size problem, and his van was pretty small as well”
Such an underrated comment lol
Hahahaha just love Hammonds reaction at 1:26
2:50 That didn't break, that didn't brea....yes it did, that did!
No wonder James couldn't keep up, he had half a dozen double mattresses in the back! 😁
"Second, average" always gets me
Anyone rewatching this because they have nothing better to do in quarantine? Nope just me.
Clarkson not wearing his seat belt in that drag race 🤣🤣🤣🤣
5:59 camera shutter speed perfectly matched tire spin speed
no, its smn else but i forgot cuz i have the brain capacity of a toddler
I found it hilarious when they were doing the drag race and James was absolutely deafened by the van.
omg that cameraman joke at the beggining was too funny
The camera when the van was trying to catch up 😂
Jeremy: “I don’t like manual labour”
Me neither Jezza… me neither
"Richard really had a size problem, and his van was pretty small as well."
Best line by far...
1:13 do you hear "SECOND!" or "was that good"
Second
0:01 just chilling in the middle of a runway or road
Track
Adoro i vostri bellissimi video perché da voi c'è da aspettarsi di tutto! Complimenti e congratulazioni per i bellissimi video 🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍😃😃😃😁😁😁
Richard really did have a size problem, and his van was pretty small as well.
Years ago, an ex mate of mine had a white Transit and went to get an LDV he was looking at purchasing, so I drove the Transit back. When we got to dual carriageway we had a stop start race like this one from the roundabout and the Transit walked it. My mirrors were full of LDV. Both just panel vans we used, not one a Luton like in the video.
"Second!! Average!!"
Made me lol hard!! :D
Richard really did have a size problem, and his van was pretty small too. Pure gold!
5:32
A crime was commited!
How dare he bump in to a mondeo and dent the back bumper
5:38 i like how he just looked at the camera like " yeah I just did that"
"31 mm -- You could park a bus in that gap! Hammond!" HAHAHAH
Haha
Imagine a bus that long😂
I DIED when Jeremy was saying how James named the tools at the end of the video
Love that camera man
It would be very hard for any company to make a car show better then this. THIS IS THE BEST
