nice presentation from Ollie!
Errrr back in season 5 of top gear you're forgetting the bowler.
"Its going to be road legal" Me: There are enough Land Rovers in London bought by idiots who will never use them for their intended purpose.....
and failed to finish dakar stage 8 and was out.
"Hunter" like Grandpa Joe's pervy son? Yikes!
we need jeremy , may and hammond back
speedlimiter!
69
Would a trophy truck stack up against a dakkar truck?
How did it go with Dakar .. top 10 ?
road legal production car of this thing = SUV, and those are the most boring thing since the invention of the wheel
Why is it 2 tonnes? Wouldn't a lightweight vehicle be an advantage offroad?
What is That ok sry i hate it.
That thing is a rollover waiting to happen
1:51 I say this Car looks more Lamborghini Urus than Jaguar F-Pace. F-Pace looks like a Volvo XC90 (not bad)
Honestly this guy kinda sucks
Powerful engine made to think it is a 4 cylinder NA engine. :(
ngl i love the look
that race isnt shit do the baja 1000 then talk
@cordel666 giglesworth hard to compare. Baja is a 20 hour sprint, with no need to worry about navigation. Whereas in Dakar you cover 130-250 miles everyday for 2 weeks. Plus, in Dakar there's more variety in the terrain
@Mudhaffar Adhwa the baja is one if not toughest races you could ever compete in
Different concepts of off road racing
Part TANK?!!!? Do YOU EVEN KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT TANKS?!!!!!!
Is it just me, or does it look like the one trophy truck from motorstorm
Bloody ugly
i am confused...lol
Never seen anything like this before.....Bowler?? Im useless at cars...but even i know the Bowler....
If a lawnmower was a car.
The first thing that comes in my mind when I see the front of the Rally Truck is Hot Rod from transformer
...disturbingly ugly.
Visibility...😳
so its a new model of the Rally fighter
That thing is literally a life-size remote RC toy
After singers offroad porsche im kinda not as impressed..porsche is king of dakar even before singer came around
Me looking at the thumbnail: "What the bloody..." *click*
This looks sooo Futuristic
This is the best show- no it's not, that's a lie.
I can already hear the driver screaming What a save! at me sarcastically
Bring back Clarkson
So he must have won the Dakar, right?
Nope
No hahaa he had some big problems! He did not complete the race
Do a VS with The new Singer Porsche ACS
We need the old team of the 3 legends even if it’s a limited edition
Hideous would be a compliment
I know these sort of cars are not about looks but damn that things ugly. I'm sure they could have made it look a bit more aesthetically pleasing
it would be interesting for stig to try it
Is it 200 kilos of torque? omg
😍💪🏼👊🏼
Looks like a Trophy Truck screwed a Prius..BWAHAHA
I thought the Cybertruck was ugly... This thing is hideous. 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮
He was doing fine until he cracked the lame joke about the rear wing. Can Top Gear not hire a secondary presenter who can just be himself.
50-ish lbs isn't at all an excessive weight for for your average offroad wheel/tire setup. Frankly, I'm impressed that all they weigh is ~50 lbs. The factory cast-aluminum rims and tires on my Dodge Caliber weigh at least 35 lbs apiece, so it's not a big stretch.
Well they retired and failed to finish stage 8
Yeah that was Seb's car, Nani Roma did decent
It's awesome. This isn't Top Gear though.
Jeremy Clarkson's mustache in the Citroën C3 is much better 🤣
Take my money though
That has to be the ugliest vehicle I've ever seen!
Omg , I have the exact same car in my garage .
So this is what it came out of Top Gear yeah so it's not the same quite boring actually
let there be light
Couldn't look uglier
Since when did walter white get on top gear
How is that guy... He realy has a radio face..
Everyone: Dakar requires a ground-up design from the information from the best in the world. Designers: Did you say Pontiac Aztec on steroids done! Smiles
That's one ugly car with shit visibility.
It has a Dodge grill, a Jaguar tail and hatch, Aston Martin door handles, a Hummer like engine hump inside the cockpit, and tiny Lego looking wheels. With all of these features, I still thought this was an electric car until the aforementioned engine hump was shown.
I thought this was electric lol
Basically the Octane from Rocket League
What do you mean: "haven't seen any like this before"... I see them 2 times a year in my home town... They are called Baja Trophy Trucks.... Made to take the Baja 1000... Not a rally, a race in one stint. Man and machinery versus anything that the Baja desert can throw their way.
Prodrive are serious tho tbf...
And if you want a production car the bowler wildcat would be my choice...
This looks like something out of beamng
I hate the look of it and I do understand now, why I would not on earth by a modern Jaguar
This is not a "truck" by definition. Just saying...
Dakar means burp in Hindi
Jag f type from the back
That's octane y'all
BOA NOITE ! É TUDO QUE SONHAMOS .UM CONJUNTO PERFEITO. (PODEM DIZER O VALOR ) PODE VIR PARA O BRASIL .OBRIGADO, FORTE ABRAÇO
Compared to the voice the "music" is way to loud!
Well, dont forget about the other driver Nani Roma with 2 dakar wins and who obtained a fith place with this new car, amazing!
the mic sounds awful. like over compressed 96kbit.... very exhausting to listen to
That's Moon Patrol
Looks like that 70's Dune buggy thing.
That Andy hamiltons looking rough these days.
Itwould have looked a bit better with a more aluminum nascar body like og dakar trucks
@Willem tires
Nothing from Nascar is related to the word "good"...
What the hell even happened to that Jag? Steroids haha
Apparently not tough enough.
My real name is Sebastien!
he looks so tiny 😂
Very ugly car. Terríble.
unfortunately Loeb retired from the 2021 Dakar.
Shit car... Shit tires... Could not make it to Finish..
If the intention is to finish the Dakar, why not put a Toyota engine on it? (ok...., after the bomb I'm out...)
looks cool but the space between the panels is terrible
I really dont think the seat is high enough for perfect visibility but perhaps from the video we cant really assess that ah ...
The solid sweatshirt previously fax because pine electrophoretically taste behind a sudden centimeter. volatile, ready riddle
Horribly ugly
@Nicolas Mora I guess, wish he could have explained why it even bothers with design elements like the fake rear air intake that just has a spare under it, like why not just have a smooter body line, i dk im just upset the vid wasnt in depth XD
but looks like it works xD
Good luck servicing that engine.
Atrocity
Put A BARRA IN THERE
oh, they can use the wing as a lever, oh or not , this is an idiocy way of presentation. just state the facts not buts and nots , such a crappy presenter
We want our legends back Clarckson, Hammond and May. It had been 4 years and still the new Top gear is shit. It should be called the Bottom gear. AND Clarckson has covid sadlly every one will miss him
I dont care still the old 3 r better
All i can say to you is bugger off. If you want the old 3 back that bad, shell out the £80 a year to watch them. If not then stop whinging.
He has recovered from what I've heard.
"I guarantee you've never seen anything quite like THIS before." >koff< Local Motors Rally Fighter >koff
I wonder if it will do a front flip and keep driving like the RF.
Hideous.....
****🚩🚩🚩**** *THE ONLY THING MISSING: FRONT AND REAR TRACKS* ****🚩🚩🚩**** *(RUPS-BANDEN) , WHICH ARE ADJUSTIBLE IN LENGTH, AND WIDTH.*
thats an really ugly car
