The Grand Tour
5 Times Richard Hammond’s Car Builds Have Failed Throughout Top Gear And The Grand Tour
Porsche 924 (Top Gear Series 5 Episode 6)
Richard bought the Porsche 924 for the £1,500 Top Gear Porsche Challenge but its actual price was around £750. Unfortunately, when he used the remaining money he didn’t spend on the car, but the modifications didn’t do the car justice. May explained to him that he gave it “sporting credentials it didn’t deserve”.
The car was not well-represented with the black bonnet. The “creative” livery featuring flames and the number 54 also wasn’t very appealing.
This Hammond-owned Porsche 924 was offered for auction in the year 2017. It was sold at a reasonable €8,000 (£6,800).
