Jeremy Clarkson Will Return to His Automotive Roots for One-Off Special ‘Jeremy Grows a Car’

Prime Video has announced an exclusive one-off episode of Clarkson’s Farm series, titled Jeremy Grows a Car: A Clarkson’s Farm Special. In this unique installment, host Jeremy Clarkson will temporarily shift back to his automotive roots, inspired by his past roles on Top Gear and The Grand Tour. The special, set to debut in 2027, will feature Clarkson attempting a world-first challenge: growing and building a car entirely from materials sourced from his personal farm, Diddly Squat.

Using a Jaguar F-Type V6S as the foundation for his automotive masterpiece, Clarkson plans to employ his family leather interior and wool carpets, sourced from Diddly Squat. Additionally, he aims to cultivate a crop of flax fibers, which he intends to transform into a sustainable flax-composite material. Clarkson claims this alternative to carbon fiber is already being explored by major car manufacturers.

To aid him in his ambitious endeavor, Clarkson will be assisted by the renowned car designer Ian Callum CBE. Callum boasts an impressive resume, having designed iconic models such as the original Jaguar F-Type, the Jaguar XK, the C-X75, the Aston Martin Vanquish, the DB7, the DB9, the Ford RS200, and the Nissan R390. Jeremy Grows a Car: A Clarkson’s Farm Special will air in 2027, promising a groundbreaking fusion of farming and automotive innovation.
