I like how Alex is 36 and still has to call his friend’s dad for help

Andy is a legend. And the phrase "most fun I had in months" is so relatable.

Jack doesn’t get enough credit for the cinematography on this channel, this is beautiful

Yep, the content I subscribed for. Amazing stuff guys!

We need more people like Andy

Jeeeeesus Andy is a beast, driving like a maniac with his disco over that trail! What a legend! Please try to find him and make a video pitching the Vitara vs the Disco

Alex's girlfriend: "I like how it doesn't smell" Alex: "...and I took that personally"

Andy hell yeah!!

Fun fact: Andy is a god and must be protected. Absolute mad lad powering down the muddy Lane

You should name the Vitara "Andy" 😂

Andy's been waiting for this exact moment since he bought that car.

Andy be like - "You see love? Thats why I spent that money on the Disco"

*Ngl, that was wholesome af when Andy said he hadn't had that much fun in months. What an awesome guy.*

Ethan’s dad is still there looking for them.

Good dogging spot that car park. I mean dog walking.

"I haven't had so much fun in months" Andy's a lad, be like Andy

It’s rusty, has holes, lets take it somewhere where the water can go through the holes and create more rust😂

There goes the "Neutral" car smell, now its going to smell like BOG.

That was great. Love how Andy said it was the most fun he'd had in months. That wouldn't have happened to that man if three guys hadn't got a hair-brained scheme to go off road that day. lol... It actually appears he would have made it had he used a more steady approach while entering the "pond", using a bow wave to keep the water ahead. Oh well. Made for great TV.

Andy is a legend. Love his motor. Smiled all the way through this one. 😁

I´m actually surprised he was able to get in, it's quite a step from the floor.

There's nothing like watching experienced off-roaders, and this is nothing like watching experienced off-roaders.

List of mods: - Lift kit; - Limit slip lockers, front and rear; - More aggressive pattern tires; - Winch. Enjoy the car

Andy : I haven’t had so much fun in months ! His wife : 😔

9:56 when you're mums gone to Tesco and left you in the car so you jump in the driver's seat and pretend to drive

So you bought a daily, to not daily it. That's the most Alex thing. Aside from his gym which if you didn't know he has one and its the best gym around. XD

It’s just nice to relax chillout open you tube and see this in the recomedation and watch top class entertainment. There is nothing like it. TOP CLASS ENTERTAINMENT

Love what your gonna do with the Vitara, I really didn't want you to scrap it :)

Legend has it Ethan's parents are still driving a Range Rover through the snowy forest at night looking for their son's 36 year old friend.

Andy you the man if you ever read this! Came through when the CT boys needed you and you didn't disappoint!

"I'm happiest when I'm in a shit-box" - Aren't we all Alex, aren't we all...

I bought a 2002 Vitara for £650 4 years ago as a winter car as I live in the middle of nowhere and a 4x4 is handy. I changed the radiator which was cheap and easy to do myself, changed the oil and put some mud tyres on it and it's been indestructible. Probably the best value car I've ever had. Goes anywhere with the mud tyres and as mentioned in this video I don't care if it gets scratched or dinged, I don't lock it or worry about it. It starts and goes every time, even when I don't use it for weeks, stress free motoring, I love it.

WHAT A LEGEND ANDY IS

Alex : "I am 36 and I don't want this in my life." Clarkson, May and Hammond : "Are we a joke to you?"

The moment I heared " Power will be our Friend" I just heared one thing: SPEEED AND POWAAAAA

Very well done! I especially love the idea of building it up a bit and attempting this muddy pit again. Slap some aggressive tires (and perhaps trim the fenders to fit something larger?) and then comeback - the humble Vitara might just surprise everybody!!

Alex: I need a new daily Also Alex: *shoves new daily in a lake*

You know that you need good tires to go off road especially in the mud in my country (Bulgaria) the vitara is one of the best off roaders money can buy because the vitara is unbreakable and unstoppable big hills big mud holes rocks it just goes nothing stops it but you need to put on good off road tires a snorkel a lift kit a winch and remove a bit of weight and you’re pretty much set

Andy is an absolute legend.

Wee Andy what an absolute gentleman! The world needs a billion more Andys 👏👏👏

Saw this on Instagram. Been waiting for almost a week. I'm taking a shit rn and once I saw the notification my finger couldn't click it fast enough 🙌😂

There’s a word in german “EHRENMANN” it basically means honorary man , and that’s Andy

Hope Andy has seen the comments section here, the appreciation is awesome. Legend.

I can't believe how excited I got when they decided to make a proper off roader out of Rusty.

"that has not gone well" giving me jezza flashbacks

We need a off-road series !!!!!!

Andy in his disco with road tires = Legend

This vitara is actually really good offroad, but the driver is shit, sorry Alex

“To get rid of the carbon build up in this engine you need a chisel” 🤣🤣🤣

Alex just sending it into that bog hole reminds me of the time my friend bought a Suzuki sidekick. Doors were ratchet strapped closed, and whoever did that also tied the seat belts to the b pillars. After jumping it once or twice we snapped the unibody right at the bottom of the windshield so the whole thing flopped around while driving it. It was mid January (eastern Ontario) so it was about -20c easy. Patrick, who was driving spotted a big pond formed from melted snow that had re frozen. Without ever checking what it was like he pinned it and we hit the hole doing about 60km, (with no seatbelts). Boy do I wish we checked it out because while the ice around the edge was maybe a inch thick, it got thicker towards the middle. (About 1ft thick) and it stopped the poor sidekick in its tracks. I was in the passenger seat, Patrick was driving. We both hit the windshield face first while our friend in the back got lucky and bounced off our seats. The car immediately started filling with water as it was well above the doors, and all sorts of gross shit started floating around, used condoms, chewed gum and dead mice. We climbed up out the sunroof and jumped to dry land. Lesson learned, check the fucking ice.

9:53 me and the boys vibing after lockdown

Andy has done you a solid there and proved why the offroading community are a great bunch of guys/girls.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the quality of the shots?

I'm amazed it's even survived On road for as long as it has... never mind off road! As I said on the last video. Whoever gave that thing a valid MOT is a criminal.

13:00 There's alot to be said for this particular bit of Audio, combined with the video imagery here LMAOO 😂😂😂😂

Andy is a true gentleman. It was priceless when you opened the door and released the deluge.

Be sure and change Rusty's fluids. Diff, Transfer case, transmission, and engine oil being the big ones. lol

My cat wanted me to say he really enjoyed the bird-shots. Finally something we can enjoy together ;D

This content is soooo goood! It's like old Top Gear, only more relatable and genuine. Cheers lads!

Dudes crazy that Vitara is mint. Some new plugs, fluids, shocks, springs, tires, and you're good to go.

I love Vitara's. So regret selling mine.

Putting it in 4WD might have helped!

Hell yes, build that little thing into the off road rig it's always dreamed of being! And get someone to weld in some patches in the rear quarters, if that's the only major issue I think it would be well worth doing.

This was more of positive advertisement for Andy’s and Land Rover discoverys

Alex: Let's upgrade the vitara! The Pinin:🥺

Andys the hero we needed but didn’t deserve

YESSS. OFF ROAD VITARA. that's what we all wanted

Give these guys a tv-show, It's the carshow we all deserve.

"I don't want to get wet", keeps the window open

7:58 thats someones 'Stick Of Truth'....if u know u know

I bought my 2nd running car, A 2000 Impreza 2.2L 4 speed auto for $50. Sold my Protege5 for $500, put a timing belt kit on the EJ22. Then it ran great. I had this car for about one and a half years until my dad bought it off me for $1500. I beat the absolute piss out of that car for 1.5 years straight and it never skipped a beat. Granted since I and my dad owned it we fixed some visible rust, repainted it, replaced the coil overs and brakes, last but not least made a custom exhaust. Now that car is still my dad's daily and it is so very close to hitting 500,000 kilometers, and because of this I really want to buy another cheap GC8 Impreza to beat on.

Andy what a legend, that's what being part of the car community is all about

Drinking game: Take a shot every time Alex says shit box

I love how the comments is just full of love for Andy, no one even cares about the vitara now 😂😂

Andy has been waiting for this day 63 years, 11 months and 5 days. Andy will fall asleep happy and with a smile on his face.

What a guy Andy is. Big up the car community. Brings a tear to my eye.

That B-roll at the beginning is actually really good

I've seen the results on Alex's IG stories. Has not gone well.

2:38 *That handbrake and gear selection was slick*

Best episode in ages. Not that others were lacking but this one was hilarious

When you're going through water you go slow and pick a line .

Start the weekend right ✅

I borrowed a 2000 Gran Vitara regularly from a family member a few years ago to get to uni. The short wheelbase offset the long steering ratio for me (or maybe that's one of the ~0.5 things they changed over the years), but even that one in good shape was wobbly at or above 100kph. It was happiest when there was no pavement in sight. Even a mint one is still a death trap with roughly 1.7 stars from the IIHS.

I bought the same landrover as Andy for £400 with 1 month mot and it was a manual I used it for a few weeks and then sold it for £600 the guy who bought it has put a new mot on it and is still using it today. It was a beast being the td5

I bet Andy was back down there the next day in the disco having a mess about..

"top gear top tip, get yourself a rifle..."

9:50 that bloody steering wheel and it's 1480 turns hahahaha

Bought one of these at 17 for $700 as my first car. In the US, it's called the Sidekick, and mine was literally a barn find, with only 5,000 original miles. So many memories. In deep water, they're trash as you discovered. But they'll go pretty much everywhere else. I had mine for 7 years, eventually sold it for parts after a double T bone accident left the frame bent, damn I miss that thing.

I've owned 4 since new. The Vitara's are just like tough little dogs that just keep on going.

Imagine bumping into this lot out in the woods having no idea who they are!

Never thought this day would come but I'm excited about the Vitara off-road build!

I remember we had one of these as a family car when I was younger, I thought it was decent but I was a kid and only cared about comfy-ish seats and the fact the boot opened the "wrong way"

I think alex should have just bought one of the cars he looked at himself.

had one of these with 33's, 3'' lift and front locker. was an absolute monster off road. did many a recoveries with it.

What a guy Andy is! Should do something nice for him and show him the car community love! Was great hearing how much fun he had

12:33 you will not find a non bastardised disco for less than £3000. I know because I want one ☹️😩

Petition to save and fix the rust 👇

fellow offroader here. i suggest drilling a hole in the lowest part of your floor board and putting a rubber plug in it. when you decide to go through a lake pull that plug and it will drain after you get out/ but if you sit in the lake it will fill quicker jsut a downfall of doing this

I had one of these when I lived in Cyprus, it was freaking amazing, nothing stopped it, mountain tracks, sandy beaches, salt flats, river beds, streams, all were beaten by the mighty Vitara (or my ninja driving skills).

Fun fact: This is the same Barbie car Hammond used on Top Gear for the police episode.
