- This week, Ethan is tasked with modifying his SC500 Ford Focus Micro Camper and building it out to be the ultimate camping car. Meanwhile Jack has his own take on what camping with your car should be like, by bringing an old V8 BMW coupe with a roof tent. Which one will prove to be the more comfortable DIY camping car as well as for a little road trip?

These three are absolutely fantastic. This is what car shows should be like - just a bunch of mates having a great time and making memories. Honestly finish every video wishing they were longer.
Car throttle, autoalex and overdrive fill the top gear shaped hole in my heart
Throttle House and Gears and Gasoline are good as well. Especially when they're doing road trips.
Agree 100%, these latest videos are the best content Car Throttle has ever put out. Top job guys!
The Focus with the roof tent would be the perfect combo
amen bruv
totally. cozy sleep, all the amenities, economical little car as well.
Doesn't overheat too, winner all around
No the 8 series is better, because the Focus doesn't look like the 8 series. And looks are important somehow.
@@ThaMythbusteryeah focus looks Better in that stunning yellow color
Ethan was on point for this video, except the sleeping arrangements. If i slept in there my morning wood would keep me wedged in for an hour. I would have to think of baseball just to get out.
thats the most hilarious thing i've read all week. lmao
To be fair, Ethan said he felt like he was sliding out. If anything that maybe would’ve helped anchor you in the focus 😂
No way 💀💀 😂
I’ve not laugh out loud at a youtube comment in time man, that’s cracked me hahaha
Doesn't the Focus have a sunroof for your morning wood?
This is the most enthusiastic Ethan has ever been about a car. Love ittttt!
Edwin’s collection of cars is just astoundingly good.
What are all the cars he has?
@@Mandarin9900850 and 840i, couple 3 series e36 i think and an m3 e46, eunos roadster limited edition model thingy im not sure what one
@@Mandarin9900 I don’t know but he does have an 8 series
@@Mandarin9900probably about 7 e36s
This channel has never been better imo. Feels like it’s thriving, and these 3 really bounce off each other well. Really enjoying this channel lately more than ever.
Same! No disrespect to their former colleague who now has his own channel but now he’s gone these guys personalities can truly shine
@@downwarddonk Completely agree.
Everybody gangsta until a roof tent on the 8 Series 🫡
Fair play though Ethan, Focus did good. We'll order the steak 🧑🍳
The way Ethan kept saying "you'll see why the bed is high" made me think he was going to do some sort of grand reveal where the whole thing compacted, or the roof would lift up to give more space.
But no, he really was just sleeping on half-an-inch of foam and pressed up against the ceiling!
Tell corporate to let Edwin become the third presenter already
Ethan did crazy good with that Focus! I do think he should have sacrificed some of the storage for a better sleep though
Wait a second , that place at the beginning of the video , was the place where the leaning citroen tower (from top gear) fall into the ocean while Clarkson was licking ice cream xD
Nope that's beachy head in sussex TG were in the west country
Beachy head that is and top gear was there 👍👍👍
@@cozmogaming1528cornwall
The scene in Top Gear was filmed at Hartland Quay, North Devon.
@@xxnormskixx oh i no there was a scene they did there tho
I genuinely lost it at the toilet. Ethan is a treasure who must be protected at all costs
Ethan's car was actually brilliant. Apart from the bed, he should have chucked the toilet because, let's face it, you can hardly sit on it, never mind wipe 👀😂 People have no idea how happy I would be to just drive into the middle of nowhere, sit down and play GTA Vice City all night. Amazing.
Comfy👌🏻
This episode was goddamn brilliant. I absolutely lost it when he pulled the TV out of the back and when they started sanding the car. Great work team
Really enjoyed watching this; great chemistry from the lads, now I just wanna go camping xD
CT is on a roll lately. So entertaining.
The vibe on these videos is so nice, it’s everything I want from a car channel, keep it up boyz
Been carcamping for years, and that Focus is legit bloody impressive! Expected chaos, got absolut genius level of ingenuity.
A roof tent, an EcoFlow and Ethan's Focus, minus the bed ofc + A lovely campsite = perfection.
let the challenge begin 😮🔥
Yo CZcams 🎉
AINT NO WAY 💀
Yo nice that youtube likes this kind of stuff
@@hugovelluet If it is 100% advertiser friendly, they do interact with it.
I thought when Alex left CT it would go downhill but these kind of videos are really good!
I just want to take a moment to love and respect Edwins jacket
Perfect timing, lads! Just sat down to chill at home after finishing work. Now I get to enjoy some quality Car Throttle content 👌👍
The videos in recent months have been just epic. Some of the best content the channel has ever produced. Well done chaps
No shade on auto Alex loving his stuff with Taylor but this trio works better in my opinion.
Yeah agreed. Last few vids have been some of the more entertaining on the channel.
I've watched countless of car channels on CZcams and TV but none compare to car throttle 😂
The stress of sitting in traffic in an overheating car is like nothing else. You are also baking hot because you have the heater on full blast to try to save the engine.
I wasn’t expecting much from this video but it delivered so many laughs! I love the dynamic between you guys
I might be biased as an E46 owner but with this 8 series and the green M3 goddamn Edwin has some great taste in cars.
I have the delta max I love it it runs my Citroen berlingo I have turned into a micro camper loving the focus camping set up
I'm dying watching this episode in the middle of the night. Love this guys 😂
What country are you watching from? It's 7pm here haha
Ngl i new that the focus would be returning to the channel cuz I looked up the plate and it said it was back on the road wondering though if the golf and the saxo are still around
The curtains are also here. Lovely. Also respect for the Renault Jacket
Love the varied content coming from you guys. I find autoalex buying yet another BMW and messing around has already become so stale. Please keep up the good work, and random cars!
Love the banter and the direction you've taken car throttle 👍👏👏
When i think about it, it's hard to imagine something more well suited for this kind of thing than that 8 series (Provided that it is actually working). The tent might not exactly match the luxurious feel of a good GT, but can you imagine that for taking a trip up to explore the scottish highlands
Genius episode. Ethan rolling out of the bed had me crying of laughter.
That focus will never die
Banging back a steak sandwich served from the back of a Focus is actually a preferable idea to some of the take away options in my area
any car that edwin seems to daily is a lovely motor. mans got taste.
Edwin and his cars!! Wow 🤩 proper car guy props to him
Great video lads...great consumer advice, Ethan's multi purpose focus is brilliant it does everything lol..but I'd still have the BM!
Been watching CT for many years, still fantastic watching, and still love Jack's laugh!
Brilliant viewing boys 😎 had me laughing at your antics. The focus had all the mod cons 👌🏻 but the bmw stole the show. Well done on another great video
NC500 FOCUS BAAACCKKK!!!
That Green Paint on the milennium edition focus is nostalgia, straight up nostalgia
This is brilliant 😂 Top gear campervan challenge part 2
Gutted you filmed up beachy head and I missed you chaps! The roads I learnt to drive on and there absolutely fantastic! My home town glad to see it getting some great press 😊
Wow...I have a Focus SW from that era... Already has the roof bars... Would be the perfect mix of both this campers
'You can recline' at which point I lost my .... Great vid lads.
other than the bed, Ethan just knocked it out of the park this time. [invisible hat tilt to Ethan]
Ethan's effort to this video made me so happy
Yes Charlie! Levelling up with this one! Fantastic endorsement. Great product and the ideal camping accessory. Much love brother 👊🏼
Got to love a Focus, the Mk1 having owned three of these, brilliant cars, super reliable and drives great. The Mk2 Focus is similar to it. Great to see the MK1 back on the channel, on the other hand, not quite liking seeing it in this condition as it’s a rare millennium edition as well.
That Ecoflow system seems to be the difference between carry on camping and glamping, super idea, another enjoyable vide gents, thank you.
Amazing video lads. Brilliant stuff. Ethan you are a genius
Definitely inspiring. Like that Ecoflow. The Focus was great. Just needed that rooftop tent. ❤
steak out the back of a focus has to be better than out the back of an escort XD
Edwin is a legend the combo of him, Jack and Ethan is the best era of CT
That kept me glued to your content from start to finish keep up the good work guys 😅
When I finally sell my bimmer and get a 240 estate, i'm definitely putting one of those roof tents on it.
I had a 240 wagon, and you don’t even need a rooftent. I could sleep flatout in the back of it with the rear seats folded down. Amazing car, I still kinda miss it.
Quality job on the passenger throne😂 I’ve got one of the latitude pioneer tents actually and I can’t recommend them enough!! He wasn’t lying about the good nights sleep in the tent as I’ve said before I prefer sleeping in the latitude tent than I do at home😂😂
Ethan, we salute you sir. Great job. That 850i is stunning. Especially with the roof tent.
nah.. he had the poor mans 840 lol
Tool box filled with fairy lights 😂😂😂never change Ethan
Ethan's work with the Focus is simply amazing! Happy to see him so excited about a car project too!
Good topical sponsor! Ethan gave everything for this one, even his sleep quality
marvelous timing lads, got snacks and all for a movie then i saw this pop up, great work
Tent on focus, boom 💥. Brilliant work on that focus, thought out brilliantly 😎
I power my Defender camper with an Ecoflow, great bits of kit.
You guys are just such a perfect team, so funny and maybe even the new top gear team! More please
Totally lost it when Ethan showed that screen. What an episode chaps!
love ethan his absolutely amazing and is doing so well with Jack n Edwin his ideas with TV n deck chair amazing
The focus is genuinely ingenious but the compromises required are hilarious 😅😆 Amazing job though, absolutely love how many amenities are stuffed in there
The whole point of the Switch is that it is supposed to be portable as it has it's own screen. So Jack's BMW could easily have had it own Switch with minimal effort.
Yeah but how would he power it when the Battery Dies and to actually use it like Ethan Did he would need a TV. He didn't have an Ecoflow and I highly doubt He could charge it using a Cigarette Lighter
@@lorddarlo6194 you can absolutely charge a switch from a cigarette lighter port. it draws 39 watts max. just get a 60W USB PD car charger and you're golden. charge it while you're on the road and if your battery isn't completely fucked you can charge it 10 times easily while stationary.
The focus is SICK now !! 😂
14:45 please tell me that's a vine reference from back in the day from Edwin 😂
Fantastic video lads. Would love to see a focus camper mk2. And what about Jack and Edwin doing converting their own budget cars. Make for a good challenge video
Please do an update on the 924, you need to restore a car like that
Loving these ct vids guys more then ever keep it up
BBC should have hired you three to host Top Gear instead of cancelling it!
You should do a music festival shitbox challenge next summer. Ticket, camping gear, food, beer and vehicle all from a fixed budget.
cheap car, ticket, mattress in the boot and all the beer you can fit in there. food optional.
I would join your new channel on a heart beat.
Thats a great video guys , loved it well done 😊
Another great video, thanks for sharing!
The new trio works brill, more of the mad lads pls
this focus made me buy a yellow focus mk1 and save it from scrap and its fantastic thanks you guys your focus is so rare because is a X reg they were all W //// nice vid guys your vids are always good
I think Ethan takes the (yellow) cake but I wouldn't mind a roof tent. It's been a thing for us east germans for ages and I love em.
1:42 pretty sure thats beachy head road up from birling gap.
excellent hooning road that one
You three are killing it, well done!
Great video lads 😂 now top gear is gone, you are it lol
So glad to see the Focus back!!!
e31 camper goes hard
Ethan is Inspector Gadget. Utter genius 👍
Really like the 8 series, but I'm biased because I own one, Rj in Oz
Well done Nathan your camper Focus had evertthing except a decent bed needs some fine tuning
Ethan, you truly surpassed yourself there buddy. Good effort. 🎉
I never wanna hear Ethan slander of any kind again, apart from the high up bed, he absolutely smashed it out the park here, well and truly 👏
I'm from South Africa where we have constant load shedding due to government corruption and lack of infrastructure maintenance thanks to the corrupt ANC and sometimes days on end without electricity due to stolen cables. Got my Ecoflow a couple of months back and cannot live without it! This was very entertaining, thanks guys!
Such a good episode! I want that Focus!
That 8-series looks amazing!!!
