The Grand Tour Finale: Fitting Farewell Soundtracks Playlist

All you want to know about the Kia EV9

As The Grand Tour drew to a close, the final episode was a poignant send-off to one of the most iconic automotive shows in history. Clarkson, Hammond, and May took their last road trip together, delivering one final hurrah packed with humour, camaraderie, and breathtaking car stunts. But what made this farewell truly unforgettable was the carefully selected soundtrack that underscored the emotional highs and lows of the episode.

The songs chosen for this final journey weren’t just background music – they were the emotional backbone of the farewell, reflecting the bittersweet nature of saying goodbye to a beloved show. Three tracks in particular stood out, each marking a significant moment in the episode.

1. “Monte Carlo” – Struggle Jennings The road-trip anthem Monte Carlo by Struggle Jennings was the perfect choice to capture the adventurous spirit of The Grand Tour’s final episode. With its gritty, Southern rock vibe, the song reflected the rugged nature of the trio’s journey. As the hosts navigated through stunning landscapes and difficult terrains, Monte Carlo’s steady beat and raw energy added a sense of freedom and rebellion that fans have come to associate with the show.

2. “Brothers in Arms” – Dire Straits As the final road trip began to wind down, Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits filled the air, bringing with it a wave of nostalgia and reflection. The haunting guitar riffs and Mark Knopfler’s somber vocals echoed the bond between the three hosts, who have been through thick and thin, from the highest peaks of success to their fair share of controversies.

This iconic track set the tone for what was more than just the end of a show – it was the end of an era. The lyrics, steeped in themes of loyalty and camaraderie, made it clear that while the engines of The Grand Tour may have been turned off, the bond between the three hosts remained as strong as ever. The song captured the heart of the episode: these weren’t just presenters, they were brothers who had shared years of laughter, challenges, and unforgettable moments together.

3. “My Sweet Lord” – George Harrison The episode’s final moments were set to the ethereal and contemplative My Sweet Lord by George Harrison, a song that felt both melancholic and uplifting. As the camera panned over the last shots of Clarkson, Hammond, and May together, Harrison’s soulful vocals created a sense of peace, closure, and acceptance. My Sweet Lord was the perfect send-off, capturing the sentiment of moving on while cherishing the memories that had been made.

A Fitting Goodbye The final episode of The Grand Tour wasn’t just an end to the series – it was an emotional farewell to a trio that redefined the motoring genre. The music in the episode made the goodbye feel personal and heartfelt, transforming it from a standard TV finale into a genuine moment of reflection for fans and presenters alike.

In the end, it wasn’t just about the cars, the stunts, or the locations – it was about the journey, the friendship, and the memories. With this powerful soundtrack, The Grand Tour ensured that its final ride would be one to remember, long after the credits rolled. Lastly thank you for all the laughter and joy you’ve brought us over the past 25 years.

‘The Grand Tour: Eurocrash’ Takes Central Europe by Storm

Controversy be damned, Jeremy Clarkson remains on our screens whether you like it or not for the motoring reality TV series The Grand Tour , and this time, the special is dubbed “Eurocrash.” Current affairs aside (with Prime Video cutting ties with Jeremy Clarkson due to his comments about Meghan Markle), this is another highly entertaining yet standard offering from the Top Gear trio as they travel through Central Europe in weird, comical cars.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash is a lot of fun

The fifth season of The Grand Tour continues with its second stand-alone special after 2022’s A Scandi Flick . In the latest episode, Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson, and James May take part in a road trip that no one has ever thought of doing before.

They travel from Gdansk, Poland, through the countries of Slovakia and Hungary before ending in Slovenia, where they conclude at the scenic Lake Bled.

Adding these ‘weird’ cars makes this unconventional road trip hilarious. Richard Hammond is first on the scene, driving a yellow convertible pick-up truck for the entirety of the 1400-mile journey.

Jeremy Clarkson can be found in a hideous, limited-edition Japanese gangster car that looks like something Cruella de Vil would drive. James May is there, bringing up the rear in a 75-year-old micro mini that is four feet wide and struggles to reach its top speed of 40 mph. This, of course, becomes a clear hazard on European motorways.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash (Credit – Prime Video)

As they travel through Central Europe, the presenters enjoy some gorgeous sightseeing diversions. They take in the history and culture of each individual nation while, as you’d expect, performing elaborate practical jokes on one another.

Between all the pranks, there’s room for some car analysis, with the trio using their standard sarcastic wit to inform viewers of their peculiar cars and the many other vehicles specific to those four countries.

This is all topped off with action-packed races and a captivating grand finale.

Eurocrash is a lot of fun. The trio gets up to their usual scripted shenanigans, deploying their trademark irreverent humor wherever they go as they plow through Europe. It’s painfully staged sometimes, but the old formula still works an absolute treat anyway. This special is sure to put a smile on your face at some point during its feature-length run time.

This installment offers nothing new or original, yet the trio is comforting and consistent nonetheless. Fans of the series and the trio’s previous work will not be disappointed. This entertaining road trip includes rebellious, silly comedy, detailed car analysis, and a cracking soundtrack.

Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson, and James May have been performing these sorts of specials for nearly two decades now, and very little has changed in their style or delivery in that time.

Yet even with such an overwhelming history of content behind them, the tried and tested formula still succeeds. It just feels a little dated now, is all.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash — release date, first look, premise and everything we know

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash is the latest Prime Video motoring special.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash is the latest motoring special from James May, Jeremy Clarkson, and Richard Hammond, which will see them touring Central Europe.

The ex- Top Gear trio will take on a 1400-mile journey in the Prime Video special, where they'll see some Soviet-style Formula 1 and recruit a famous racing driver, as well as being attacked by deadly archers and taking part in a spectacular climax, so there's plenty to look forward to!

Specific details are under wraps, but we do have a small amount of information about the newest Grand Tour special, which was filmed in Poland and Slovenia.

According to  The Sun , a TV insider has claimed fans will be impressed by their latest outing, and said: "This will be a special like no other — and fans are going to lap it up. Nobody thought Central Europe would be an option for a road trip."

The insider added: "But the lads have well and truly proven it’s a great destination for petrolheads." 

Here's everything we know about The Grand Tour: Eurocrash so far...

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash release date

The new special will arrive on Prime Video on Friday, June 16, and will be available worldwide. 

We don't know how long the runtime is yet, but previous The Grand Tour specials have been around 90 minutes, so we're expecting another feature-length one.

The Grand Tour: Eurocrash premise

According to Amazon, the premise is: "Jeremy, Richard, and James head to Central Europe on a road trip nobody has ever thought of, in cars nobody would ever dream of."

It adds: "This epic 1400-mile journey takes them from Gdańsk in Poland, through Slovakia, Hungary, and Slovenia. They sample some Soviet-style Formula 1, are attacked by deadly archers, recruit a famous racing driver and take part in a spectacular Fast and Furious climax."

The special follows their most recent release, A Scandi Flick, and Amazon says it will launch ahead of their next adventure which has recently finished filming in Mauritania, although we don't have any details about this one yet.

Is there a trailer?

Prime Video has not released a trailer for the new special yet, but we'll let you know if that changes.

At the start of T he Grand Tour: Eurocrash , we encounter hosts hosts Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond on a ferry to Gdańsk, Poland, with maps on the table in front of them. Because many of the countries they’ve road tripped through either have a “terrorism problem” or has banned one of them from their roads, they’re going to do a road trip “that no one has ever thought of before.” It starts in Gdańsk, winds its way through Poland, Slovakia and Hungary, and ends at Lake Bled in Slovenia.

THE GRAND TOUR: EUROCRASH : STREAM IT OR SKIP IT?

The Gist: The cars the hosts have picked for this 1100-plus-mile road trip are completely “inappropriate”: Richard picks a mid’00s Chevrolet SSR, a convertible pickup truck (yes, you read that right), Jeremy drives off the ferry in something called a Mitsuoka Le-Seyede, which takes a common Nissan “saloon car,” as Clarkson puts it, and adds body panels and fake exhaust tubes to make it kinda-sorta look like a Mercedes SSK. James, ever quirky, putters out in a 1947 Crosley CC Convertible, a 4-foot wide car with a roof that snaps on and an engine that generates all of 26.5hp. “Mr. Wilman” (EP Andy Wilman) has provided a whopper of a backup car: A purple hot rod with the words “Titties ‘n’ Beer” on the doors.

The SSR and the Le-Seyede aren’t the greatest cars, but they handle themselves reasonably well. But James is struggling in the Crosley, almost getting knocked over on the highway by passing tractor trailers as he toddles along at a speedy 38 mph. The car stalls out repeatedly. So at the first stop, at a raceway near Gdańsk, James comes way late to do a qualifying lap in one of the Soviet-era Formula One-esque cars. Jeremy is too fat to fit in one, so Richard is the only one who gets to race.

Jeremy and Richard prank James by having people lift the Crosley and move it inside the hotel restaurant, but James gets back at the pair at the next stop by making “changes” to their cars. Either way, James keeps missing tourist stops, like a massive Jesus statue or the stalag depicted in The Great Escape because the Crosley is so slow and stall-prone. Eventually he gives up, gets in the “Titties ‘n’ Beer” backup car, and has the Crosley towed from stop to stop. But the hot rod is no prize, either.

What Movies Will It Remind You Of?: Clarkson, Hammond and May have been doing this for over 20 years, between the original incarnation of Top Gear or the seven years they’ve been doing The Grand Tour . Of course, Eurocrash is one of the feature-length GT episodes Prime has been producing over the past few years, like A Massive Hunt .

Performance Worth Watching: This time around, we’ll give this to a wax statue of Formula One legend Nigel Mansell that the guys steal from a bad wax museum in Kraków. Some of the funniest moments are when the statue takes the brunt of abuse, like when archers in Slovakia shoot at the cars, or when the sun coming in the window of Jeremy’s car melt his face. All the while Jeremy and Richard are doing Mansell’s Birmingham accent.

Memorable Dialogue: “I have produced larger and more attractive bogeys than this,” Jeremy says about the Crosley.

Sex and Skin: Oh, we wouldn’t want any of that, would we?

Our Take: Listen, we know that the shtick of the Grand Tour hosts is pretty well known by now, and it’s now been tainted a bit by the blowback created by Clarkson’s written remarks about Meghan Markle . But, dammit if there weren’t moments when we laughed out loud at the fellas’ antics, as well as just enjoyed the chemistry the three have together, whether they’re being goofy together or being competitive rivals.

Also, we know how much of The Grand Tour is more semi-scripted sitcom than actual reality show, with a team of mechanics doing the modifications to the cars that the hosts say they did themselves. But we come for the travel scenery, the goofy camaraderie between the hosts, and the shots of the ridiculous cars they drive being abused and pushed to their sometimes-low limits.

We even got excited during the final scene, where the guys have to drive their cars onto the cargo ramp of a taxiing jumbo jet, fighting jet wash the entire time. After taking this road trip with these three guys, we were rooting for the cars to make it to their destination, especially the Crosley, which usually can’t get out of its own way.

Our Call: STREAM IT. The Grand Tour: Eurocrash is a funny, scenery-filled road trip with everyone’s favorite group of British goofballs. What’s not to like?
