Richard Hammond Enjoys Testing the £208,000 McLaren 720S | The Grand Tour 

Who would you rather go on a test drive with: Jeremy, James, Richard or Abbie? 🤔

"James May applied for a job at McLaren but they turned him down for being too slapdash"🤣🤣🤣👌

With Hammond at the wheel ‘breathtaking’ is an understatement

There used to be a time when I thought super cars were stupid and just a show-off. But now I respect the engineering and technology that went into this.

You guys should do more of this, we kind of miss the show with reviews.

Let’s not forget Hammond’s ‘Lack of Continuity’ Award for filling the tank with water 😄

Thankfully I've been lucky enough to see a 720S in person. There are at least two white ones and a black one where I live. They are just as exquisite in person as they are in pictures. Thanks.

Cheers for the vid. Nice car Hamster !

That drift setting is incredible

*Bigger price bigger horse power bigger thrill what an incredible looking car* 👏

Always nice to see Richard going fast in a fast car, not too fast though 🙂

Fabulous driving Richard

Will look nice in the garage where it'll spend most of its time

Such a helpful video of information

Couple of years back, a guy bought one where I live...took delivery on a Friday, and wrapped it around a tree Saturday. He was ok, the car... totalled.

That car is a perfection

I missed these reviews!

Simply an amazing car.. choosing the drift percentage lol what else could you possibly ask for? It looks gorgeous as well

Yes, it's very important to know what your setting is for variable drift control on a McLaren.

My second all time favourite McLaren.

What a machine !

Amazing

Vientos 👍

Except the doors lines and body lines barely line up with the door rubbing when you open it

Top, Very Good my friend 🙏

i love watching ads for cars i'll never see.

Noway that was you ripping it up on the track lol

Awesome ☆☆☆☆☆

I see McLaren still have the Starfleet Command emblem. Not a complaint. Just an observation.

And Hammond did not even crash ... wow. 🤣🤣🤣

angle of dangle 🤣

I’m jealous oh so jealous

Really wish they get him to drive a 765LT soon.

which episode is this?

Miss these guys doing proper but silly reviews the big adventures are ok but a proper series is much better IMHO

just had to come and check see what matt Armstrong's got his self into

Yeah he's so much in love that he filled it with water instead of Petrol

Thesize of the breaks, 😮 I miss my ceramics

And you still have the steering wheel right in your line of sight, can’t it be lowered anymore?

I love the 720s, only down a notch from the 765LT. Good job not Hamstering the car and parking it on the roof. 🤣

UFO tecnologia aliena !!...MCLAREN TOP

Looks and drives great but ask Mac owners about the ownership!

Im not familiar, but how about *McLaren 720S* vs *Koenigsegg CC8S?* ⚡⚡⚡🔥🔥🔥

Hammond is sooo good 🙌🏻

Can’t believe Adept sold her Mclaren to Hammond…. Poor xqc

0:38 here's a more relevant test... Get 2 Ford Fiestas one petrol and one Diesel and see which is more economical considering diesel now costs 25p a litre on average more than petrol ⛽👍😐

I'm surprised that the "ultimate tech nerds from the Kingdom of Geeks" let Hammond drive their car after what he did to the $1 millions Rimac Concept One car back in April 2021.

Is it now trend to put price in the title?

I was making sure the interior didn't change again .

Where's the new special Grand tour ???

Definitely Hamster for the cheeky banter, but his crash record would be considered seriously prior to strapping in for a ride

Just don't crash it.

its a nice car but it will break , atleast it lasts a bit longer than focus st lol

Harder on a set of tires than anybody I know...GT is.

Always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾

Abbie eaton

Damn Imagine buying a McLaren for your own happiness just for it to be yoinked from you Aware

The only thing faster than a Mclaren is its depreciation .

Abbie

Never underestimate a McLaren.

Really not interested if there's no manual transmission.

They do better advertising than the Manufacturers. Dam is that McLaren sexy

Tire destroying mode...38.5%

Should be James "The Nerd" May, to drive this beautiful white beast McLaren 720S.

McLaren makes the most stunning cars in the world.

Comparing the power to a 'P1 but without the electric motors' really doesn't put anything into perspective though?

'Angle of Dangle' sounds like the name of a porn film 🤭

The paddleshifters are so puny in this spec.

I'm enjoying a rollup in bed

710 Horsepower, all of which drowned when the tea started tasting funny.

McLaren dakar

It's a video game, not a car.

AAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAARE

By today's standards 710 HP can no longer be considered ridiculous; it is obviously a lot, but it is fairly common and no where near the high end of what is available.

its always been a CLK GTR according to wiki. thats ok. we alll have inspiration uwu;

🤩

McLaren has turned into Ferrari, building better road cars and forgetting about f1 performance

4 000 views and about 1 will actually afford to buy one

did he enjoy crashing it?

Like

Lacks character.

Return to the old format please. Specials take too long

who gave you permission to test drive my ride... ;p

Well hopefully, May would cook me breakfast with some Clarkson eggs then Hammond wont get his trousers cut off, then i race Abby in a super-charged v8 mini hovercraft over the Sahara or something like that...

seat looks flimsy. cockpit looks like CGI this looks like a diecast

he said "everything's bigger in this car" not everything hammond, your still as short as always, how do you see over the dashboard? do they put a periscope on the dashboard, you know like the ones in tanks?

Why so much geekerey with the facts and figures but "I can fit my fingers in those" size panel gaps ??

I only watch Hammond and F1 for the crashes🤷‍♂️

V8 for the win... Turbo schurmbo

Amazing car ofcourse, but why didn't they just gave it 10hp more?!

If theyre such nerds why are mclarens always breaking

This car came out in 2017...

this car isnt reall XD

I must say, I really hope the show will last a bit longer than what we've had so far. Especially in these crazy woke times where we definitely need something normal, something we all know. Something like the 3 from the fuel station... Of course I mean May, Clarkson and Hammond. Actually I am writing this because I hope anyone from the team of TGT will read this because I have had an idea for a last hurra if you really going to cancel the show because of age as James May said in an interview I've read the last couple days. Not exactly said they will retire but he said they already though of stopping the show because of their age. Why not making a rather old school episode or show whatever you call it, but only in a upgraded version since you've got higher budgets. Why not making some sort of a triathlon but with cars or even with 3 different types of motorized vehicles. The first thing comes to my mind is of course normal roads, amphibious discipline and maybe off-road. You could make a car each for every discipline or one for all 3 disciplines?! You could also get together a motorbike and a train of some sort... I know it's a bit confusing but it might get a bit more clear when I tell you that you have, just like in the top gear days, build them yourselves. Well, as far built yourselves the amphibious cars were...or the camper train whatsoever... Thats what people are looking pretty much forward to, especially if you are really about to cancel for retirement. Give us that last hurra! I have to tell you I am somewhat over 30 years now and I never had the money to pay for a driving license, nor for a car or it's monthly or yearly insurance cost. But I always wanted to learn to drive, not necessarily on open roads but on a track or abandoned airfield like you drove on for so many times. So it was top gear UK, Top Gear US and of course The Grand Tour that made it possible for me to enjoy at least a bit of these things. Because a crazy trip through middle east, India or burma with cars or lorries that would absolutely be something I always wanted to do for at least one time. An own attempt for a an amphibious car I'd love as well. I'm telling you this because actually I am pretty sure I would absolutely show some talent with all that although I did only drive on time in my life, and it was for t minutes and a in Germany called "Feldweg" which somehow translates to "back road" or something? Literally it translates to "fieldway". And I absolutely adored it. But my chronic pain disorder makes me staying away from public road driving. But in a track where I could absolutely enjoy driving without worrying about people who are a bit...well people you can't trust basically, and I couldn't trust myself because of the painkillers. And don't get the wrong idea please I am still full of conscious, it's just that it's really hard painkillers that have been made to give their medicine slowly, so it's not making me stoned of some sort. It's just the rules in Germany and for a good reason, most painkillers are really making you unaware or unconsciously in a way that you have lowered attention etc. So if you ever again come across Germany and you're going to realise the idea of a triathlon special, where you for instance drive your own builds in different countries you could give me some opportunity to learn driving with the 3 of you and have a great day and fun on a track and I'll prove I'd be able to learn driving in a heartbeat and that I am really damn good at such things even that I've never done them before. It's simply because I do have an excellent (well, I don't know the right words for that so I am trying to describe it) feel for such things as cars, bikes or whatever could be used as a sort of extention to your body if you will. Like I'm having an excellent spatial perception (not sure if these are the words I've looked for). You have to excuse my english though, I've only learned it from translating song lyrics and watching Top gear UK and US. So it's a bit...daft, really. 😂 And forgive me the try to get a day with hammond may and Clarkson on a track. It's just always great fun to watch them do pointless stuff. Well, I wouldn't necessarily call "fun" pointless, but I think you'll get my point. Cheers and thanks for reading this...let's call it an attempting request or request with an attempt, whatever🤷🤣🤣

You have to translate your videos to Arabic language

After seeing what the Rimac Nevera did to the 1,000hp Ferrari SP90... idk man i'm just not impressed with any of these anymore. Just seem like desperate attempts to retain their former glory.

Tesla would smack that around

McLarens 🥱

Nothing to do with this video,but McLaren is famous for extremely poor built quality, literally loosing nut's and bolts as you driving along

Only the McLaren GT looks pretty. Its cousins don't.
