The Fastest Street-Legal Sofa In The World | Edd China's Crazy "Cars" | Going Into Overdrive Ep.1

In our series “Going Into Overdrive“, we introduce you to crazy petrol-heads and their mad machines. We start off with British engineer Edd China, who’s achieved a feat most inventors can only dream of: He regularly sets new Guinness World Records, by constructing roadsters that don’t really look like cars at all…. Believe it or not: all of these "objects" are street-legal!

Which of his many crazy "cars" do you think is the coolest?

[@AB-ii8st]

It were the bed if you could sleep in it while driving.

[@kbhasi]

The bed car he showed bears similarities to a childhood dream of mine…

[@Milutinovich]

Little Nemo: The Dream Master

[@kutter_ttl6786]

The man in the shed. Britain's secret weapon.

[@kayagorzan]

A moving shed at that

[@dude28405]

He was definitely the reason I watched wheeler-dealers he was the next level genius was an excellent teacher and could tell you why and how to do things

[@eliasdahlqvist7834]

This brings back so many memories. When i was around five i my grandpa built a small wooden car driven by a lawn mover. I remmember swooshing down the street at 25kmh

[@Lyndell-P]

🇭🇲🦘 Edd China is not only a great Mechanic and Engineer but a creative Inventor too. Always thinking 'outside the box' is the Genious behind this man. Oh, he has fun too, but that is the point - to love what you do. Great stuff Edd! 👍

[@moaningpheromones]

This is how you go to a drive-thru and get breakfast in bed.

[@jazminsanchez8046]

😭😭😭😭😭💀

[@JdogGames]

Full self-driving will eventually be a thing. Imagine making a bed car that can fully drive itself, letting you sleep while it is driving you

[@WarriorsFanSince-ur3zu]

Elon Musk and this guy working together and what u just said would come true in the next 50 years.. It is already close.

[@EASFromTheWest]

It’ll be like Wall-E

[@davegardner2258]

I've seen him driving the sofa on country lanes near where I live. Top man.

[@fayebradshaw4221]

Oh God this is AMAZING

[@sapede]

Good luck passing TÜV or EuroNCAP with that

[@ryadhasanahmed5443]

Well it's street legal so yeah, but he wouldn't be able to sell it on a global level tho 😂

[@Ag3nt0fCha0s]

I would not care about anything if I could drive those.

[@USMCCombatVet4TastyCrayons]

The irony behind your smartass stupidity is, these DID pass MOT and are street legal vehicles. The Casual Lofa has been legally street driven in Europe, the UK, and even on United States freeways. Comments clowns, thirsty for a little class clown attention - like you, will NEVER be on the same level as hard-working and intelligent professionals like Edd China. Loser 😂

[@charlesc.9012]

Neither would a nuova 500, BMC mini, Beetle or 2CV. But those are fun and interesting cars people still drive and buy. Not counting quad bikes and scooters that would kill just by driving in a wonky line He could just be like the coachbuilders selling new 2CV shells. It is a niche product anyway, without a roof in the UK, but he would then have to spend time building them when he could be earning more by being featured on shows

[@skeletonentertainment4201]

If there's one thing Penguinz0 has taught me, it's that anything can be street legal if you put your mind to it

[@chef7658]

and if the cops dont see it 😅

[@TheNumber146]

When I was 18, I bought my first hearse, a white 1979 Cadillac Fleetwood S&S Victoria, and I thought I had the most unique personal car in the world, but on my way home with my new to me car, I was PASSED BY A BATH TUB 😂

[@calsheridan8961]

"Get up. Time for work. Get out of bed." "No..." "... No? Are you not going to work?" "I didn't say that."

[@SaianaKrishnaMehrotra-fr4qt]

this man make the dreams come true

[@nonexistantman5797]

Would 100% buy bed car. Just needs a roof to prevent rain or snow from getting in.

[@chef7658]

yeah, these cars you drive outside in the timewindow where it doesnt rain in the UK. so i would say a 2 minute drive.

[@Victoria_Orlova]

"My parents aren't home" *arrives in bed*

Love Edd and his crazy machines 😁

[@user-us6ce7me8k]

Awesome 🧡🧡

[@SoyJayP]

Wow, so cool

[@mooneyes2k478]

Edd's orange isn't his creation. The Outspan Orange is a former advertising vehicle, made by a South African company to spread the word about their oranges. It's essentially a shell over a Mini.

[@djlondon7956]

Edd is SOOOOOO GREAT 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻😍😍😍

[@wedoalilaccident7489]

Now i can finally sleeping while studying in scool

[@LouiesLog]

Nicely done Ed

[@lS-qp6zq]

Citrus-inspired car is just fab!

[@NoName-hg6cc]

"Why aren't we funding this?"

[@themadscientest]

I swear that you can make almost anything street legal in the UK.

[@dweuromaxx]

What other crazy street-legal vehicles have you seen? 🙂

[@TheRetroShepherd]

This man is playing Gmod IRL

[@Guten_Morgan]

[@JourneycattYT]

this gave me the idea of making my own sofa car XD im not sure it would be legal though

[@tessalangfermann3766]

Pretty cool

[@timcrook2231]

Top man Ed 🖖😉👍😎

That would be totally illegal here in California 😔😒

Ist das überhaupt sicher 🙈

[@sweiland75]

Why are British roads only one lane wide? LOL

[@andreaskavak2364]

Because 2-1=1 and 1 is smaller than 2. If you have a 2x1 meter road the drag is higher than a 1x1 meter road. And if im correct the drag decreases with 50%

[@liamwilkinson9902]

@@andreaskavak2364 yea but its also called a one way road

[@eyesodd]

Because it's an old country, the roads in the countryside like these were originally dirt tracks used for horses and carts. No they aren't one way either.

[@mscir]

boring
