When you think of motoring shows like Top Gear and The Grand Tour, you probably have a picture of Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond in your mind, and indeed, the shows wouldn't have been half as popular today if the iconic trio didn't make them that way.

Clarkson got his television breakthrough when he was selected to host the early format of Top Gear from 1988 to late 2000. In 2005, when the show was brought back in a new format, he was joined by Richard Hammond and James May. Together, they turned Top Gear into the most-watched TV show on BBC Two.

Along with Jeremy Clarkson and James May, Richard Hammond was announced as one of the hosts for Amazon’s motoring show, The Grand Tour. Needless to say, they brought the same entertainment value that was on show during the airing of Top Gear. So, if you’ve ever wondered what cars these motoring experts drive, here it is. We bring you the coolest cars in Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond’s garages.
