The song choice for this was perfect. Suits it so well.

[@ollymuirs]

Definitely, anything is improved if hothouse flowers are in it :)

[@stevencourville382]

One of the rare songs that are better than the original.

This opening always made me cry. The friendship between these three were so precious that they became the real reason why Top Gear was the best show .... in the world. When James and Hammond would left BBC to follow Clarkson, it was a beginning of the end for TG, nothing will ever be the same anymore. The three would go on a new adventure. They would call it......The Grand Tour!!!

[@tytuberoblox]

funnily enough, GT backwards is TG

[@chrissilvester5663]

When Hammond & May turn up behind Clarkson & Clarkson's face literally beams with happiness is one of the best moments ever seen on television. U just know that's true friendship right there

[@helivarpalac2956]

Came here after watching the trailer for "One for the Road"..... They restarted their trio dynamic like this with a huge bang then they're finally going to end it in the most solemn of notes. Truly wonderful...... The lunacy of these trio ever since Top Gear helped me go through the gritty reality, which I believe holds true for most viewers who had these shows way back in their childhood years. We'll miss you, fine gentlemen......

[@Sol1345l1]

Thanks for 22 years legends!

[@Starman_Talks]

Just finished watch ''One For The Road'' and now combing through youtube to just watch all their great episode moments. Thanks, Lads!!

Here in 2024 after One for the Road, and I'm all choked up. God I love this show... and I miss these gents so much it hurts

I must say the editing on this intro was spot-on. My favourite part of that is the line "Here is the rainbow I've been praying for", right over the top of the three presenters in the three different coloured cars.

[@t-minus-qj7sd]

Thank your for all the great memories Jeremy, At TG and GT.

[@TerrorMau5]

2:02 - 2:14 the only time we will see this three guys show their true friendship to us.

[@WobblinGoblin1]

The best cold opening of any television show...ever. Chills.

Who's here after watching the final episode?

[@wazzzombie05]

2:02 when your buddies got yo back

[@danielannett1019]

you can tell from this opening these three really do have a friendship and a bond that cannot be explained.

[@jonathanoxlade4252]

3 middle age old farts yet the were childhood old farts and will always make me laugh till the end of time. Peaple don't understand the bond as kids with Hammond running a science show along other show's aswel you just can't get the bond with 3 new guys it's just not the same but that's me I respect those who wana move on with latest top gear aka shit gear but that's personal preference because these 3 farts were our childhood

[@dashcamuk23]

7 years on... We were lucky and honoured to live in this era. Thank you for everything you did... And yes James, you brought us lots of happiness

[@AntJoseph_]

Still miss the moments that they went through on TG but they're still the best of the best! I'm so glad Amazon went on the right direction!!

[@Dave534]

Personally I think they are better on Amazon they have the freedom to make jokes they don’t have to censor themselves because the the BBC’s ridiculous political correctness

[@RedJLP]

@@Dave534 And on top of that, they were willing to give The Grand Tour as big of a budget as it needed to not only rope in the guys' loyal fans, but also rival the hust of what TG had become in their absence. I mean, look at this, how much do you think it cost to make?

[@caiwilkie6453]

Now it's over again Rip GRAND TOUR Rip the rent and the audience

[@Dave534]

CAI WILKIE hopefully it will just be for one season before they realise their mistake and bring back the tent

[@riidge4177]

Looking back from a nostalgic POV I wished the trio was still on BBC but I respect Amazon on the fact that they really appreciate the talent Clarkson Hammond and May bring to the table unlike BBC

[@thomaswp2706]

What an Adventure it has been. So Long Guys

[@xblade_assassin]

i'm not into comedy shows and i never laughed at any american late night joke i hear, but watching these 3 men joking around genuinely makes me smile and snicker at times, which i do hope says something. seeing the last scene of the final episode actually made me feel some genuine sadness i hadn't in quite sometime. the trio are like a lightning in a bottle as i remember some of their funny moments like jeremy saying jaggg, hammond's quick witty remarks, and james not believing in electricity. thank you to the 3 men who brought us top gear, the grand tour, and childish banters. cheers to the best comedy trio....in the world.

[@jackdaone6469]

Perfect beginning and it ended perfectly, as well. Thank you, Grand Tour.

[@Aj-894]

i am going to miss you guys, thank you for 20 years of pure british comedy and entertainment

[@The_Republic_of_Ireland]

Probably the greatest opening I've ever seen in my life

[@tombowman5281]

Fun fact when Clarkson was coming down the highway he didn’t actually know James and Richard would be there he knew they were doing a show but that is a genuine reaction from Clarkson as this was the first time he had seen them since he got fired

[@cd9759]

Where did you find this ouy

Not sure how that would be possible considering the months of planning before anything was ever filmed

@@voke4553 Rather unpossible, me thinks

[@moeyounes237]

The moment they pull next to him in the Mustangs makes my eyes tear up. It is like they are saying to him "Where ever you go we will follow, we are loyal friends, we are behind you and by your side" I love this trio

That is the greatest Opening Scene for a series every filmed. When Hammond and May pull up beside Clarkson brings a tear to your eye.

[@Megadriver]

Not only did James and Richard quit the BBC and follow Jeremy, but also most of the production team. I love that. This scene put tears in my eyes. I remember watching the first episode and I got emotional. My girlfriend at the time asked me why I was emotional and I told her I had watched these 3 men do their show(s) ever since I was a kid. I had grown up on Top Gear, Manlab, Brainiac, Engineering connections, James May's 20th century, Oz and James big wine adventure 1 & 2 and Jeremy Clarkson's Motorworld, Car years, Inventions that changed the world. Everything these 3 men touch, turns into gold.

[@craigturner8993]

The transition intro from BBC to Amazon productions, they absolutely nailed it, just epic.
