Sean from TopGearbox here with an exclusive preview of The Grand Tour Series 3’s twelfth episode – titled “Legends and luggage”.
In this episode, Jeremy Clarkson tests two modernised versions of classic Lancias, one a thorough update of the Delta Integrale, the other a completely new take on the legendary Stratos.
Meanwhile, James May looks back at the incredible story of the Porsche 917, from its early days as an unpromising widow maker to its evolution into one of the most successful racing cars of all time.
Also in this show, Richard Hammond joins Clarkson at Stansted airport as the pair attempt to speed up the journey from check-in to security to the actual aeroplane by devising two radical takes on the idea of motorised hand luggage.
The twelfth episode of The Grand Tour Series 3 will stream on Amazon Prime Video on March 29th 2019, so if you haven’t got an active Prime Video account yet make sure you sign up here.

A little info on this exact 917K
1970 Gulf Porsche 917K #21 SN 917-024,the same one Steve McQueen used in legendary racing film Le Mans 1971
I guess next episode will be the S03 Finale.Ford saloon funeral（which the proto Sierra Cossie in the OP will show）
Definitely not the last episode! I think you may have forgotten about one very important Grand Tour Special!
Right,the custom made car episode,I forgot about that
917 is the start of Porsche’s LeMans legend,and both Lancia are sort of restomod,a buffed Delta and a rebody tuned 430 Scuderia.It’s great to see so many legend on the show
Do you think his tribute will be similar to his take on the GT40. That also started as a Widowmaker and ended up crushing Ferrari a bit like the 917. JOOC, 917 or GT40?
An episode of classics, finally a true return for Lancia with their two greatest cars. Andy Chen what’s ur thoughts on the 917?
