Longer travel and more clearance?

Im looking at that and thinking "Where's the big deal?" My mother was 60 when she bought her last car, a 1990 Volvo 240 estate. She put about 200,000 miles on it. During those 25 years she used it as a 1 ton truck, it went off roading and soft roading with zero prep and zero mods. After she had to stop driving I took it over and added another 200,000+ miles in 8 years. That car often went through mud, snow, and whatever in the course of my work. It went places 4 wheel drives were having touble with. That looks like fun to me!

This is a fantastic project, but come on, Jonny, this isn't the first new car to compete on the Lands End. First of all it's two years old, and for most of the Lands End's first twenty years all the cars were two years old or newer! Secondly, there was a brand new Ford Escort on a Lands End in the 1990s.

Lands end will be a hoot. Lookin good so far.

Bring on Video 3 😁

love this

I hope Kia release a special edition Picanto in recognition of your adventures

I think this series is my favorite on the channel so far, I love it. Can't wait to see how the Cant does in the event!

The car weighs nothing, bump it over, two burly guys could move it easy. Brilliant video.

Wached you coming up the hill @ Crackington, you had your focused face on 😆

Remember the Cant! 😁👍

This is just nuts!

You could lighten the skid by drilling holes in it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Brilliant stuff! Nice to notice that the background Renault has come a long way between parts as well.

Driven how every rental car gets driven. It'll do just fine. 👌

Great video idea. More stuff like this please.

The text on the video is incorrecto mundo S500 was there first production whip foo 🤓

Oh, how I laughed 😂

such a shame it has to be scrapped :(

Gents, i think you should come and so some Historic Sporting Trials with the HSTA. You would be welcome to double drive my old special. Next event is the 2 day Crewkerne Trial May 11/12

you should try to tether the go pros to the car so in the event that they fall of they won't go to far

I think the front springs are struggling with the added weight up front by the way it keeps bouncing as you drive. Good luck guys. I'll be fun to see how it goes. Cheers 🇨🇦

Have your raised the suspention i didnt see anything about it mentioned? Or blacked out when you did appologies

😊This has got the makings of one of the best things you have done on this channel . I can hardly wait for the actual event. Best of luck🤞

Brilliant 👏👏👏definitely won’t need your Coffee Cup impossible to drink😂

Which tyres are you allowed to use?

I enjoyed every second of this. And that Renault 11, oh la la!!! Sian is a man of exquisite taste.

This is awesome Jonny!!

Where can you watch the lands end trial?

Well it's a cheap car so at least if you wreck it it's another Korean pile of poop off the road, literally off road.

Love it

If you pull the electric motor out and hook it to a garage door, it can be the worlds quickest garage door... just because you can, doesn't mean you should....

Got me looking at used Picantos now 😂

pls do a video with the charger out for a drive

that Renault 11😍

The 'bodgery' of the build is exactly in keeping with the event, as long as it works it's good! Really looking forward to the next episode.

Childlike !!!!

Believe it or not, I had never heard of the Lands End Trial until this series. But I'm very tempted to participate now!

“NO ALLAN YOU CANT” “Well there’s no need for THAT!”

Brian, the Cant that Can! (You may need to swap Pastrama for "Straddle" though, Jonny!)

Welcome the new pa-CAN-o!!!!

Why do you keep calling this a "brand new car"? The 71 plate means it was registered in late 2021, and there is also a newer Picanto available which looks different.

Nice car, glad it is on the channel, G wagons are unique though, better than the ICE version i would think. Price will be eye watering. but 3 tonnes is like other big EVs a bit lazy in the design. For Evs to really work we need loads of 7 KW destination chargers that mean batteries can be smaller to get lighter more efficient EVs.

Brilliant! Combo steels a rare thing now more or less sri cav steels been after a set last 3 years 😂

what's the craic on the tyres?

That big steel plate underneath might well save some components but will also lead to a lot of beaching like you experienced there. A series of smaller plates might have been better.

Good luck

There are so many cant puns I could use that would probably be deleted. But I'll play it safe by saying: Cant, can!

Would the regs have allowed you'll to at least weld the diff so that you'd have had traction on both front wheels ?

28:41 Thrusting the Cant like a good un 😂
