Jeremy Clarkson special Jeremy Grows a Car arrives in 2027
Prime Video has announced a Clarkson’s Farm special in which Jeremy Clarkson builds a car with Ian Callum CBE using a Jaguar F-Type V6S and farm materials.
- Jeremy Clarkson will build a car based on a Jaguar F-Type V6S using materials from his farm, Diddly Squat.
- Ian Callum CBE is listed as a co-builder, and the special is scheduled for 2027.
What happened
Prime Video has reportedly confirmed a new one-off special tied to Clarkson’s Farm. The project is called Jeremy Grows a Car: A Clarkson’s Farm Special and centers on a car build that taps into Jeremy Clarkson’s background on Top Gear and The Grand Tour. It is being described as a standalone project rather than a regular episode of an existing motoring show.
According to Prime’s description, Clarkson will try to “grow” and build a car using products from his Diddly Squat farm. The base vehicle is a Jaguar F-Type V6S, with details including a Diddly Squat leather interior and wool carpets as part of the finish. The report also says the project combines farm produce with an existing sports car, giving the special a different angle from a standard car show.
The special will also include an experiment with flax fibre. That material is set to be turned into a durable flax composite as an alternative to carbon fiber. Prime Video says this kind of composite is already on the radar of major car manufacturers, adding a technical layer to the more playful farm-based concept.
Ian Callum CBE is named as a co-builder. Callum previously designed the original Jaguar F-Type, Jaguar XK, C-X75, Aston Martin Vanquish, DB7, and DB9. The report also references his earlier involvement with the Ford RS200 and Nissan R390. Clarkson’s final The Grand Tour episode, One for the Road, aired in 2024.
Timeline
2024 — The final episode of The Grand Tour, One for the Road, airs.
2027 — Jeremy Grows a Car: A Clarkson’s Farm Special is scheduled to air.
2027 — Prime Video has not announced an exact release date, only the year.
Background
Jeremy Clarkson has long been associated with motoring shows through Top Gear and The Grand Tour. With this special, he is reportedly returning to that automotive theme, but within the context of Clarkson’s Farm and his Diddly Squat farm. The mix of a farm, a sports car, and a materials experiment makes the project stand apart from his earlier TV work.
The available information suggests the special is being treated as a one-off format. That matters because there is no exact release date yet, and it is still unclear whether Prime Video will position it as a standalone special or as part of a broader Clarkson’s Farm release. The report does confirm the year 2027, but not a month or day.
The practical build process also remains partly open. The description mentions a Jaguar F-Type V6S as the base, plus Diddly Squat leather and wool carpets, but it has not been confirmed how much of the build will be completed on camera. The same applies to the flax-fibre experiment: the special aims to turn that material into a flax composite as an alternative to carbon fiber, but the final result has not yet been shown.
The involvement of Ian Callum CBE gives the project extra weight. Callum is a well-known car designer with a long list of credits, including the Jaguar F-Type, Jaguar XK, C-X75, Aston Martin Vanquish, DB7, and DB9. His involvement suggests the special will lean not just on Clarkson’s fame, but also on a serious design element. Even so, his exact role in production is still unclear, since the available information only identifies him as a collaborator.
