[@christophb2736]

That „glang“ gets me every time. It‘s not an explosion, not a dying battery, just a distinguished sound of a bell like last order in a pub. Very british way to end it.

[@TheChzoronzon]

In fact, it's quite the pretty sound. So musical.

[@edwardwalker7955]

Did you notice Clarkson trying his hardest to hide himself laughing at that point? That was, as they would say, brilliant!

[@RaggedyAtom]

That *glang* was most likely the sound of a piston breaking free of the crankshaft and getting smacked around in the crankcase and cylinder wall, and possibly smacking valves in the process, most likely due to the engine sustaining that landing and the timing chain/tensioner possibly snapping.

[@goldm81]

Gets me too...every time..HILLARIOUS!

[@km-ti8gc]

​@@RaggedyAtomnope, that's just the starter ring gear. I hear that sound every day.

[@milesmansfield]

What do you mean “destroys”??? The car was completely fine afterwards it still drove perfectly and it even grew some new badges and features!

It's not like you can plan to throw a rod either. Absolutely hilarious.

[@km-ti8gc]

​@@lb9355that's not a thrown rod. It's the starter ring gear that's all.

[@Sledgeh101]

As someone who has had a rod thrown in their engine twice (yes, I know), I can say it's not something you can drive away from (if anything, you are now the proud owner of a 2 ton paperweight).

[@B2Roland]

Lol no shit.

[@drone_tours]

I seen a conrod go on my tractor while It didn't go all the way through it created a bulging crack in the block Upon further investigation oil pressure was lost trough the balencer shafts and it went bang

Possibly the starter, old jag starters (specifically the coupler) can make weird noises like that when you stop cranking an engine that doesn't start.

That face and nod what Hammond do when he lies about the time is just perfect.

[@jarjeestariq8561]

Clarkson's reaction when he hear the Glang was priceless

[@faerieSAALE]

I had a 1984 Jaguar XJS V12 - what I learned was this - I was no racing car even though it had a 160 mph speedo, it handled pretty well on Perelli tires, it was a huge gas hog, needing 95 octane fuel, and it was terribly expensive to maintain and repair! It was smooth, silent, sexy, glamorous to drive, and also looked great in my driveway or at the beach. Ladies if you can afford a good one, it is a classic car to own and be proud of.

[@garyhewitt489]

I briefly had a V11 XJ-S. Watching the fuel gauge became an obsession Was going to service it, but buying twelve spark plugs is a painful prospect so I just changed the oil and got rid. Never did find the missing cylinder.

[@SuperSirbone]

[@SuperHeroStoriesUnlimited]

[@goodrobot1]

I'm sure you've seen it by now but a scandi flick is out! It's incredible! Easily one of my fav episodes and I've seen em all. TG + TGT

[@252Scooby]

That clang 😆 The best noise from the grand tour

[@dag_gamercave]

I love the fact that the guys are genuinely mad at Richard for wrecking the car. Like two older brothers scolding the youngest. And keep in mind, this is an old car and a Jag, but it's nowhere near being a unicorn. Still, the fact that it DID break their hearts a bit shows that they're the purest breed of car guys. Mad respect, we will never get a trio as legendary as these blokes.

[@04dram04]

Its criminal the way Richard treated that classic Jag. Shame. Imagine the previous owners that took care of it all these years, seeing this.

[@statu5987]

[@cellulanus]

I still want to know if they actually destroyed the car or if this was all a bit. My father used to own one just like it. Actually there's a realistic chance this was the one he owned.

[@iangraham6887]

Knowing hammond’s history of being a menace to machinery, I believe this was real. The set up for the bit might have been staged with Hammond driving the car far beyond its ability, but the result from the Jump I think is genuine. Any car not built for landing like that will break, not to mention the car is around 60+ years old.

Apparently there were 69 General Lees the one in the starting credits is clearly bent beyond repair when it lands. It was Brave of Jeremy to admit how much his sports car depreciated I lost about £2500 in 4 years but I built the engine after dad blew it. He was almost deaf from old age so he gave me it. It may look trashed but WILL repair. It's only the second close relative I have left the others all died of old age.

I was waiting for Jeremy Clarkson said: Hammond you bloody idiot. You destroyed the most beautiful masterpiece of this fine car.🤣🤣🤣
