There\u2019s are a couple of small disasters and there\u2019s one quite dramatic one but I shouldn\u2019t tell you what it is yet.\u201d<\/p> <p>We can, however, make an educated guess. When asked on whether their car choices were interesting this time around, May revealed he may not have made the best choice of vehicle for the latest adventure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt particularly wasn\u2019t the case for me, to be honest, but it was sort of my own fault because I bought that car so I had to stick with it,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt\u2019s a bit like getting a dog from the rescue centre, once you\u2019ve committed you\u2019ve got to stick with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also added that there would be a couple of breakdowns for the seasoned drivers: \u201cYes, somebody\u2019s car, well, actually two of the cars break down, but one of them breaks down more than the other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s be honest, my car was very old and wasn\u2019t a particularly good idea when it was new. It\u2019s a very bad one now because that was 70 years ago, 80 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul><li><a class=\"&quot;standard-card-new__article-title&quot;\" href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/james-may-the-grand-tour-cancellation-rumours-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">James May shuts down The Grand Tour cancellation rumours<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"&quot;standard-card-new__article-title&quot;\" href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/jeremy-clarkson-grand-tour-next-seasons-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Jeremy Clarkson says next seasons of The Grand Tour are \u201cslightly scary\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With so many challenges to contend with, does May have any highlights?
