Jeremy Clarkson Loves The New 200mph Lancia Stratos | The Grand Tour

[@martinmcdonald4207]

I got one of these in blue when it first came out in 1970. I was 8 and it was made by MatchBox !

[@claymore2k1T10]

No you didn't, you got a model of the original Stratos, not this one.

[@martinmcdonald4207]

​@@claymore2k1T10 Thats true! I parked it beside my yellow Stingray Corvette😅

[@giantpurplebrain]

Did Matchbox take a tiny Ferrari, strip it down and rebuild it?

[@Barock-mt8bc]

I am also a member of the club ! MatchBox Lancia ♥

[@AntonHoward-mx9sb]

Matchbox never did a Stratos, I collect them and if they did I'd have one. I've never seen one in 1/64 but I believe Tomica & Hotwheels make one. I did pick up a Polistil 1/24 Sando Munari Stratos at the car boot a week ago though.

[@Amm17ar]

Nobody.....and I mean nobody will ever match the feelings Jeremy Clarkson gives you talking about a car. I find myself often a bit depressed watching car reviews. It why I avoid them. Im fairly certain I wont ever get to drive any of these insanely amazing cars. I cant afford to.....But when I watch a Jeremy Clarkson car review.....he describes it in a way that I feel like I have driven the car. Like Im there sitting going around the track. I don't feel depressed watching Jeremy drive around cars only the ultra-rich get to.... I feel like Im that special person who gets to do it. Thank you Jeremy.

The trio have said that they are done with making this show and (probably) want to either make other shows (like Oh Cook, Clarkson's Farm, etc.) and/or (semi-)retire in a few years. And who can blame them, they're already at that age and have done TG and then TGT together for >20 years.

[@pierceklinke13]

Truly! I was just thinking the same thing. I also can't help but think this chapter may be coming to a close soon. Clarkson has the old school lamborghini vibe in a day tech riddled hybrid and electric cars. It would be a shame for him to review anything other than petrol-powered vehicles

[@jamiebrooks3864]

He made top gear about how cars make you feel, not bore you with stats. It's his legacy that most have followed but can't match as Clarkson is so entertaining he can make farming amazon number 1 show

Really? I've always thought the Stratos was bl**dy hideous! Badly proportioned and visually unbalanced, and this one is no better. I'm sure they were good at what they did, but I have heard the driving position was kind of strange. The only reason I would have one would be to sell it on to someone else.
