DB11 on Amazon Grand Tour
Discussion
Just watched episode 3 of the Grand Tour on Amazon prime.
So far it's the best episode I've watched, they do a road trip with an Aston Martin DB11, Clarkson is driving it, Hammond is driving an American muscle car and May is driving a new Rolls Royce.
The DB11 looks great but I'm not keen on the colour, Clarkson loves it but unsurprisingly doesn't like the interior.
Has anyone watched it??

It's a good episode. But would have been better without Hammond in his musclecar - while it was intended to be comedically annoying it was actually genuinely irritating as it stopped Clarkson and May talking about 2 great cars
Wasn't it a dig at the BBC ? Reference that episode of top gear that got slaughtered for MLB passengering that yank car doubting?There is a video on You Tube from Aston Martin Edinburgh (Leven Car Company) featuring the DB11 used in this episode.
Marmite colour I think, especially with a black roof

I thought the third episode was really funny, although very staged. GT is obviously more geared toward general entertainment than automotive compared to how the trio's TG was. I'd like to see it move back more toward automotive. And yeah, the second episode was terrible.

They've made snarky references to BBC and TG several times in the first three episodes.AdamV12V said:
Shame Clarkson keeps saying its Sunburst Orange, and not the correct colour, Madagascar Orange. Seems he's mixed up the colour with Sunburst Yellow.
I think it's actually Cinnabar Orange. I like it, but then again I lusted after the Madagascar V12V at Works some years ago......Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
