The designer is hilarious... I love her. When she's trying to give ideas for the doors, Jezza makes a face, and she goes into her disappointed tone. Perfect.
I know the seats would be terrible, but I would absolutely love a motorcar like that. A car with a fireplace, could it get any better? What a wonderful car-Hood ornament, fireplace, parlor chairs, wood, and plaster.
+Jacob Woods If you had sort of quilted wingbacks but on rollers like normal car seats, it could work. But I think the fireplace would be a bit hazardous, as demonstrated here, the chimney mightn't work and the smoke could be a problem too.
+Jacob Woods I think you could get away with it much easier in a Ford Transit of even an old VW Campervan - combine the looks and feel of a wingback chair with a modern car seat (I suppose you're not far off studded leather racing seats with extra cushioning!).
This "designer" bugs the hell out of me. Speaking from personal experience as a designer... a designer should either a) fulfil the brief to the best of their ability - while adding their own hallmark and removing that hallmark when it isnt necessary, or b) consult with the client several times, convey ideas and offer suggestions that might better the project while keeping the clients interests in mind or... c) (and this applies to a lot of us)... create something unique, explore the world and create truly unique concepts, illustrations, designs and art (which doesn't apply here as she is hired by a client) This woman is no designer, she is a self titled "artiste", a true hipster that has no understanding of the concept of design as she illustrates at 2:59 when she says "it doesn't work"... ... If employed by a client, its her job to make it work... if she's not employed by a client... well... I've never met a designer who has ever said that.

Cup yes? You said my nickname.
I never knew that the French were jerks.
They're pretty high and tight for surrender jockeys.
Chicken Pickin' Bastard hahahahaha
The designer is hilarious... I love her. When she's trying to give ideas for the doors, Jezza makes a face, and she goes into her disappointed tone. Perfect.
I actually like that car he made could use a few adjustments like bolted down seats a stronger chimney and such but I really do like it.
how much would a well executed version of this be worth to you?
illdeletethis I'm willing to give you exactly half of my monies to make it happen

I’d say this would be much better if it could be done in a station wagon.
One of their very silliest, and a good example of why old Top Gear was so damn popular!
Recommended this to my teacher for a demonstration of inertia, best physics lesson ever when we watched it
I know the seats would be terrible, but I would absolutely love a motorcar like that. A car with a fireplace, could it get any better? What a wonderful car-Hood ornament, fireplace, parlor chairs, wood, and plaster.
+Jacob Woods If you had sort of quilted wingbacks but on rollers like normal car seats, it could work.
But I think the fireplace would be a bit hazardous, as demonstrated here, the chimney mightn't work and the smoke could be a problem too.
+Jacob Woods Do it! Im building a pimp mobile (on a budget) and I already have plans for a fountain in the back!
The problem is your are going to die when the damn car catches fire.
+Jacob Woods I think you could get away with it much easier in a Ford Transit of even an old VW Campervan - combine the looks and feel of a wingback chair with a modern car seat (I suppose you're not far off studded leather racing seats with extra cushioning!).
+Jacob Woods Use a Citroen Berlingo, TONS OF SPACE. trust.
This "designer" bugs the hell out of me.
Speaking from personal experience as a designer... a designer should either
a) fulfil the brief to the best of their ability - while adding their own hallmark and removing that hallmark when it isnt necessary, or
b) consult with the client several times, convey ideas and offer suggestions that might better the project while keeping the clients interests in mind or...
c) (and this applies to a lot of us)... create something unique, explore the world and create truly unique concepts, illustrations, designs and art (which doesn't apply here as she is hired by a client)
This woman is no designer, she is a self titled "artiste", a true hipster that has no understanding of the concept of design as she illustrates at 2:59 when she says "it doesn't work"...
... If employed by a client, its her job to make it work... if she's not employed by a client... well... I've never met a designer who has ever said that.
Navazarian Yeah, as a french i'm quite pissed about this french "designer" who thinks she's an artist
+Navazarian Then again the (mild) conflicts and various reactions that follow are comedy gold. In that respect, she was a fine choice for this project. :)
I T S A C T I N G
IT IS A JOKE
Navazarian they're just joking around with the stereotype
French designer would think that you don't need to be able to see out of the passenger window ever because you're in an opaque box.
1:13 every youngest sibling in the world ever...
Designer: This is too difficult
Clarkson: This is why you gave up in the war
03:45 as a French that learned to love your bloody chips, this statement is one of the truest
Pimp my ride-British Style!
So it weighs as much as a Dodge Challenger
let's not get exaggerate too much
It probably weighs the same as a challenger tank
Nah, it handles about as well as a normal Mercedes.
The Truth *insert something bad about said car company*
No that benz weights less lol
Well she's no fun
(french)
Liam Casey the french are like the germans of the romance languages
But she is cute.
I agree I liked Clarkson idea
@@AntonioProla well said
I liked Marie's design... It would work very nicely in some funky limo.
But in a car made for Jezza? No... XD
Megadriver I thought that the law dosent let you drink and drive and shes made a vodka bar!
Cool guy Passengers
no way jose
"Vinegar on chips, is revolting, absolutely revolting."
Says the French that eats snails. SNAILS.
Snails ain't that bad m8
Best dialogues
"Oh jerkhemy please"
"I don't want to see his house"
I knew from the beginning this was a perfectly functional rubbish house-car 8:28 but watching these two putting it to the test really cracked me up... 😅😂😂😂👏👌
“He has no idea about design” erm you have no idea how to listen to customers requirements?
That's why she did a design on rotring in between completely adjusted to Clarkson's requirements, yeah.
An adult costumer with a mentality of a 9 year old.
Not my words, Jeremy's words.

It's taken me this long and this many re-watches to notice that she's stood behind him in the studio and is refusing to clap.
I never fail to crack up at, "This is what we do, we see a problem, and we figure out how to solve it--ask them, they're Polish, they know."
She clearly doesn’t know that these are the guys who drove cars across the Channel. If Jeremy says he wants a mobile English cottage he’s gonna get it and damn the consequences!
In the first aquatic car challenge, he didn't fully win the argument as he wanted two huge motors but only got one (the guy he was arguing with said 1 small motor)
The designer doesn't know the golden rule. "The customer is always right in matters of taste."
you're 100% right. if it was not on a tv show jezza would have just found someone else. simple as that.
@@tomjw7499 Just trying to spread the full quote. It's starting to bug me how people say only the first half expecting extra service.
Ha! Are you kidding me? Have you ever worked in design? Customers have no taste and they don’t know what they want.
@@adorabasilwinterpock6035 No taste is still the customer's right to have. The originator of that quote used it in context of clothing. If the customer wants red when it clashes with the green suit, let him.
Well usually yeah, but this is Jeremy Clarkson we're talking about.
Marie is a good laugh, because she's actually trying to take things seriously and Jeremy is just like "Nah! Wingback Chairs!".
There were more shots fired here between Jeremy and the French Designer than the French actually fired when they were being invaded
That creature isn't French.
@Mike Marlowe in the same way that a bucket of horse manure that you mix a scoop of ice cream into is "a little bit ice cream".
@@RabbiHerschel you're racist
8:31 « regain control of the cottage » 🤣🤣🤣
5:34 the way Hammond says 'Yes' always cracks me up xD
The designer was behind him cracking up too
6:54 love how they dont care about the chimney and quickly decide to keep going😂😂😂
“We’ll try it my way first then we’ll finish” essentialy he said your way is stupid my genius is superb especially 2:33
Did anybody else notice that the designer is in the studio when they unveil the car?
Chips with vinegar, vile?
American here. Chips with vinegar are AWESOME.
+thetravinator9 I know right? Same here. I'm American and Chips (or fries as we call them) with vinegar to dip them in are the shit! So delicious! Vinegar makes many things better.
I lived in the UK for a year, so I still have quite a few British-isms left as my go-to vocabulary. :D
jbmp1390 You don't dip in vinegar, you shake it over akin to salt in the UK.
thetravinator9 ikr im indian and i love what they taste like
one does not "dip"...vinegar...
