Here’s Your Chance to be on The Grand Tour

You have the chance to attend filming for an episode of The Grand Tour – but you will have to be in the U.K.

Unlike last season when The Grand Tour‘s tent traveled around the world, this year’s studio tent will reside in one spot. “Given the show’s presenters sore joints, struggling lungs and combined age of 158, the studio tent has been given a new home in a charming location in the Cotswold, UK,” said Amazon in a press release. So if you’re interested in joining the studio audience, the company is allowing people to apply to be on the guest list for one week, starting today.

We’ve seen plenty of headlines for the second season of The Grand Tour, including Richard Hammond’s Rimac Concept One crash in Switzerland. The upcoming season will see the trio traveling across five continents, making stops in Croatia, Mozambique, Dubai, Spain, Switzerland, Colorado, New York, and more.

Applicants for tickets must be 18 years or over and there are a limited number of spots available. Applying also doesn’t guarantee you tickets. No word yet on when The Grand Tour‘s second season will arrive.

“The Grand Tour is our most popular show around the world having been watched in over 240 countries and territories,” said Jay Marine, VP of Amazon Video Europe. “Customers continually tell us that their favorite segments of The Grand Tour are the traveling adventures of Jeremy, Richard and James, so despite the various calamities and injuries along the way, the guys have spent this year exploring more incredible and stunning locations than ever before…and getting into more trouble of course. We can’t wait for our Prime members to see season two later this year.”

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
