Less evocative of Top Gear tomfoolery, more of James mildly complaining about things in his old age:

Would love to see Richard Hammond's counterpoint!
Added: James would also probably have a different opinion about the 4-door.
Good thing the Stroppe doesn't have a MIC top! The car wash would be the end of it.

He’d need a stepladder to get in…

Who the eff is "David Crockett"? 
I've never seen this guy before, but he's pretty entertaining... and I quite like the British accent, e.g. "saw-squaatch" version and "poz-airs" (posers).
And my wife commented that "he's almost a crotchety as [me]".

The dude is definitely a trip.
You’ll be happy to know the tv series involved 3 similar dudes… and each had a spinoff or two
Lots to watch if you are into cars, travels and their humor

A car forum with members that haven’t heard of Clarkson, May, and Hammond? Inconceivable!
Regarding his pronunciation of “poseur”, it’s correct for the original French term that the American “poser” is derived from.

The never ending battle between technology and Captain Slow. I half expected the other two to be in the carwash. Sadly no.
When you think about it, Top Gear and The Grand Tour with C, M, and H was perfect.
May LOVES European super cars to the extent that everything else pretty much sucks a$$ (as his Bronco clip is titled). So not surprised he didn't like the Bronco. Too American, not at all European.
Hammond, on the other hand, is a lover of American muscle cars. He would LOVE the Bronco.
And Clarkson (Clarkson's Farm is FANTASTIC, btw), well, he occupies the middle ground and can see the beauty in automobiles across the spectrum (so long as they're not EVs!). I think he would appreciate the Bronco, but he loves his Land Rovers.
Not hard and fast true, but in general, though I think this holds true.
Btw, The Grand Tour episode that took place in Detroit was fantastic (Motown Funk, S3E1). Clarkson drives a (top-end) Mustang, May a (top-end) Camaro, and Hammond drives, of course, a Challenger Hellcat.
