Once part of BBC\u2019s Top Gear and now the host of the legendary Amazon Prime show The Grand Tour alongside May and Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson naturally owns quite a sizable car collection, along with a few surprises. Jeremy Clarkson will go down in history as one of the biggest personalities that any car-based TV show will ever be linked to. Naturally, his years at the helm of various car shows, along with his history in journalism, has led him to owning an impressive collection of cars. It\u2019s not just cars in Jeremy\u2019s garage, though. Having taken on his farm during 2019, he also owns a number of unusual machines, including a rather strange Lamborghini. Here are our highlights from Clarkson\u2019s incredible collection. Jeremy Clarkson\u2019s supercars Of course, Clarkson has a number of performance cars and supercars in his car collection. One of the most famous cars in his collection was the Ford GT, which he actually sent back to Ford after a well-documented issue with the alarm. He also has a well-known love affair with AMG\u2019s products. His first was an SL55 AMG roadster, though it wasn\u2019t to be his last. Clarkson has also owned a number of other AMG-badged cars, including a CLK63 Black Series. Given his history around supercars, Clarkson has owned more than most people would ever dream of having. These include, but are not limited to: Ferrari 355 GTS &#8211; Mercedes-Benz AMG SL55 AMG Roadster &#8211; Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK63 Black Series &#8211; Aston Martin Virage &#8211; Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder &#8211; McLaren 675LT &#8211; Ford GT &#8211; Lotus Elise 111S &#8211; Classic Cars in Jeremy Clarkson\u2019s collection It\u2019s not just the latest-and-greatest cars that are in Jeremy\u2019s collection. There are also a number of classic cars in his fleet, including one of the most iconic BMWs ever made, as well as some vehicles from his time on Top Gear and The Grand Tour. The most unusual car in Clarkson\u2019s collection is undoubtedly \u2018The Excellent.\u2019 Created as part of a challenge on The Grand Tour, it is a lifted Mercedes SL convertible mated to a Land Rover chassis. Alongside \u2018The Excellent\u2019 he also owns the gorgeous Alfa Romeo GTV6 that featured on the Scottish special episode during Season 2. He even knew that he\u2019d own it after filming, saying during the show \u201cgenerally when we finish these jobs these cars end up, I don\u2019t know where. But I know where this will end up; At my house.\u201d Finally, the standout car from the collection is one of the most iconic BMW\u2019s ever designed \u2013 the 3.0l CSL. Nicknamed \u2018the Batmobile\u2019 due to its massive rear wing, the CSL is the first true performance BMW, and is an appreciating classic. While he doesn\u2019t own all of them anymore, the full list of classics that Jeremy is known to own is impressive: BMW 3.0l CSL &#8211; Alfa Romeo GTV6 &#8211; Mercedes SL \u2018The Excellent\u2019 &#8211; Ford Escort Cosworth RS &#8211; Mercedes-Benz 600 Grosser Limousine &#8211; VW Golf GTI &#8211; VW Scirocco &#8211; The weirdest car in Clarkson\u2019s collection While his crazy Grand Tour creations are certainly odd, most people wouldn\u2019t expect Clarkson to own a certain Lamborghini. In this case, it\u2019s a tractor for use on his farm \u2013 how very un-clarkson!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeremy Clarkson\u2019s impressive car collection is a petrolhead\u2019s dream YouTube: Jeremy Clarkson Fan ChannelPetrolheads around the world will recognize the name Jeremy Clarkson.
