A trailer released today for the series sees the former Top Gear presenters get into strife on the ancient streets of Edinburgh, have a high octane showdown with Abbie on the racetrack and even having Richard's car go up in smokes.

"This promises to be the most beautiful drive we have ever done," the trailer starts, as Clarkson struggles around a corner in a blue Lincoln Continental

The trailer explains how the lads are confined to the UK by Covid and decided to tour Scotland in a 'Lochdown Special' to celebrate the great 70s American cars they saw in TV shows as kids.

James, Jeremy and Richard take to the highways of Scotland in a Cadillac Coupe De Ville as driven by Elvis, a Lincoln Continental as driven by Jock Ewing of Dallas fame, and a Buick Riviera as piloted by Clint Eastwood.

The trailer sees things get more complicated for the trio as they learn of the Covid threat and are forced to tether caravans to their American cars because staying in a hotel is ruled out due to Covid restrictions.

They then head out to the Outer Hebrides for one of their toughest challenges yet.

At the far reaches of Scotland, they must build a homemade floating bridge across the Hebridean sea, capable of supporting them and their massive cars on a perilous journey to their final destination.

It doesn't start well with Richard's boat failing to tether to the bridge properly.

Previously, The Sun Online reported how the Scotland special would span 60 minutes, and with some of it set in Edinburgh.

It is a follow up to The Grand Tour Madagascar's A Massive Hunt, complete with muscle cars and caravan tows.

The Grand Tour Presents: Lochdown is the first part of a UK double bill special and 90 minutes in total.

The Grand Tour Presents: Lochdown will launch Friday 30th July on Amazon Prime Video.
