by Not so long ago, we told you about Jeremy Clarkson’s car collection. Now let’s take a look at the cars of his colleague from the Top Gear and The Grand Tour show, Richard Hammond.
We all remember well that Hammond loves motorcycles, the Porsche 911, and American muscle cars. However, he hasn’t bought his dream car, the Pagani Zonda, yet. Even without it, his collection boasts quite a few spectacular cars.
Jaguar E-Type
Hammond has two E-Types – a 1962 roadster and a 1969 coupe. Incidentally, Richard himself was also born in 1969 and in 2009 decided to gift himself the coupe for his 40th birthday.
Ford Mustang GT390
This 1968 Ford Mustang was even featured in the show.
The car is equipped with a 6.4-liter 325 hp V8 and became famous thanks to the movie “Bullitt” starring Steve McQueen. By the way, Richard’s wife has a modern 2016 Mustang.
Dodge Charger
Another hero of “Bullitt” – the Dodge Charger coupe. Hammond also acquired one, specifically the 440 R/T version with a 7.2-liter 375 hp V8.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Of course, Richard Hammond has owned several Porsche 911s. The most extreme of them is the track-oriented 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS in a special gray color.
Bentley S1
The TV host also has a luxurious British sedan from the 1950s in his garage.
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
Hammond’s salary allows him to buy a Lamborghini. He chose the 560 hp Gallardo Spyder from 2010, though he sold the supercar in 2012.
Ferrari 550 Maranello
It’s known that the TV star owned a used Ferrari 550, but Richard also sold it, something he later regretted.
Aston Marin DBS Volante
However, Richard Hammond bought the Aston Martin convertible new for 200,000 euros.
Though he didn’t drive it for long.
Opel Kadett
Not exactly a cool ride, but during the filming of a show episode in Botswana, Hammond literally fell in love with it. He named the car Oliver and then bought it.
Dodge Challenger
Another star of Top Gear filming. For the US journey, Hammond decided not to take a test car but specifically purchased a 425 hp Dodge Challenger SRT.
Morgan AeroMax
Hammond owned an exclusive retro-styled Morgan coupe but later decided to sell it.
Lotus Esprit 350 Sport
The last series of the Lotus sports car is equipped with a 3.5-liter turbocharged V8 with 355 hp. Only 50 of the Sport series cars were produced.
