5 Times Richard Hammond’s Car Builds Have Failed Throughout Top Gear And The Grand Tour

Land Rover 110 (Top Gear Series 15 Episode 4)

In this brilliant episode, the trio built their own motorhomes and campervans to travel to Cornwall. Hammond bought an older Land Rover 110 from the ’80s. It was a reasonable purchase, however, Hammond was too literal in the “home” part of the word ‘motorhome’.

He built a complete house inside the vehicle. The house encased the bodywork of his 110 and could be constructed there and then. But, and there’s a big but, the walls were too brittle and could flake when the wind became more powerful and eventually caused the whole home to collapse. This design really could have been better.
