This video is why KZbin exists. Men trying to fix a tank get distracted and have a tug-of-war between a Hilux and a Rover, then back to the task at hand. I learned nothing, and yet am fully entertained.

[@kerrydagge4397]

1 year later in Australia, i sit here, in my break at work. Nearly choking on my bangers and mash, oh, about 6 times. Love this so much. Keep up the great work and the amazing antics. Love it so much.

[@AdamBest1920]

Thank you all for your help, an impossible job on your own !

[@MrHewes]

Don’t mention it

[@chullychullster3077]

I think matts face while in deep thought is a new meme.

[@GB-jk4vt]

That was one of the best videos you've uploaded so far, I laughed probably too much but the banter is brilliant! The footage brilliant! Just a great video! Keep it up lads

[@MrHewes]

Ha we had a lot of fun doing the job!

[@user-uv7up4vg6i]

Dorchester near France! True, but Dover is even nearer!!

[@Madjock54]

Having fun and getting the job done great stuff

[@johndrew3202]

Really good to see all the lads working hard, enjoying it, and getting the job done to the customers satisfaction. Well done!! Good fun as well.

[@tripltred65]

Love the video. You guys are funny as hell and very knowledgeable. Looking forward to the next video.

[@oldmanwith]

In todays episode (at 7:53) the team learn the essential bushcraft and survival skill of how to build and start a fire using only basic items that are locally sourced in nature. Meanwhile at 10:29 fittermatt tries to reconcile what he’’s just learned with his own understanding of bushcraft. He wonders if he should call her…

[@mitchdaytonam3]

Love the casual, “Welcome to Port Royal Mr Smith.”

[@kenord3437]

Oh bloody hell, you bring back memories, I worked on Centurions and Ferret scout cars during my apprentiship. Changing a Cent clutch in the field using a M816 wrecker Crain.

[@legbreaker2762]

Looks like the team keeps growing

[@paulcurrah7385]

Great vid. It was so kin funny, Cody will be really pleased with the treatment you’re giving his Toymota. Clutch swap looked like bloody ard work, but really cool that everyone lent an and.

[@Powershift]

Awesome work!

[@philglover2973]

Awesome video thanks lads very informative 🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍

[@normplatt7549]

OUTSTANDIN !

[@reddo84]

very good :D Cheers lads Jim

[@kensherwood4866]

For most of us a day playing about with a Centurion would be a great day. But add in sausage rolls, beers hooning about with 4x4s, banter well a fine time. Thanks for sharing

[@raytheron]

What fun was had by all!

[@user-hq8vo4le7x]

Thanks again

[@doccops]

Great stuff - work hard play hard n all that ;)

[@solobushcraft1]

You make changing the clutch and dropping in the gearbox into a tank look easy

[@MrHewes]

We try 🤣

[@NUTTER8291]

Lovely to show the full Effectiveness of a 4 wheel drive system that don't bloody work lol

[@ianstarcroft]

Good to see Mat doing some hard work for once, that bag of sausage rolls looked heavy 😋

[@andyt3304]

Not as heavy as when he first collected it

[@1chish]

The sure and certain destruction of Cody's Hilux has already started .... "Children please!" "WUT?"

[@sampointau]

I travelled from France via the channel ferry to Folkestone then to Sherborne, overnight at Nether Compton with relative, then to Dorchester. Had a mate who used to run a camping/yomping store there where I picked up some great kit when he was having a clearout.

[@kevinwilliams4899]

That beats Ray Mears way of starting a fire. That was a good job done. With some cutting edge "cocking about a bit"

[@PartridgeExteriorCleaning]

great vid mate :D

[@MrHewes]

Cheers bud!

[@GTiR23]

Consumate professionalism in action, like a clinical F1 team!

[@benbowers8670]

Matt has a striking resemblance to Alan from the film Hangover.

[@annechristiansen941]

thank you very much for good entertainment. 👍🤗👍🇸🇯

[@bobbroadhurst1648]

This vid had it all, busted Hilux tail lights, Jack and his ball bag tickler, tug of wars ...... hahaha never stop making these videos Joe

A Tank Squadrons REME LAD Section at its best!... well done chaps

[@funkmobb9368]

This is great KZbin content

[@daeshbagcentral5298]

Only discovered Mr Hewes this week,now this is my kind of stuff.

[@Brigadier9]

Love to meet you guys. If you're ever down in Devon, we have the Cobbaton Combat Collection with a Centurion AVRE, Churchill, T-54, T-34 and Comet. There's also a Cromwell wreck (I think) which needs some Hewes love.

[@MrHewes]

I’m sure we will make a way down at some stage

[@Brigadier9]

@@MrHewes Awesome. I'm not yet in the position to have military vehicles, but I have traded my way into having my own little collection of 18th, 19th and early 20th century military swords! A lot of finicky restoration required, and I can't use a nailgun for it!

[@glynluff2595]

If I remember rightly I was told that the clutch had 700 lbs pressure. I certainly recall it was a big lean to hold it out especially as someone would always call a new boy about something just as clutch was out and he was in gear! It would be so embarrassing for REME to drive it into something so your leg shook and you smiled!

[@theflyingfool]

2 minutes of clutching and 12:11 of lunacy! Brilliant! I thought you might try the light-the-fire trick with the Centurion too...

[@clungepoker6749]

Nice one...

[@a9503128]

That disco has cooked all its clutches 😂

[@josepinto9416]

Vous aite une sacrée équipe de choc que ont adore quesque j'aimerais travailler avec une équipe comme la vôtre surtout pouvoir travailler avec le matériels que vous avais c'est juste génial

[@Jamiehello1]

Love this shit

[@Lyagushka]

You guys are great, a real hoot - fabulous stuff gentlemen - outstanding!

[@formhubfar]

10:28, I see Matt got a hit on Grinder.

[@MrHewes]

Wouldn’t be the first

[@djmidg]

Sounds like a bit of a misfire at high revs?? Brill vid. Keep em coming !

[@MrHewes]

Yeah the old girl has poor HT Leeds that’s the next job replace them

[@craigevans6156]

I see health and safety is to the fore as usual!

[@truckyluv7592]

Rude, crude n unattractive. Love it fellas. Keep em comin. The OLe Fella from Downunda.

[@bpenny4352]

So good to see Alan from the Hangover making an appearance

[@kenord3437]

What a team you have, what in me, watching you, call that driver “Smokey”.

[@wideyxyz2271]

This video was beep brilliant we need more beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep. Well done chaps!

[@ThreeFineWonders]

Enjoying the commentary. And the fancy dress. Perhaps you can do an episode where you all dress as characters from the A Team.

[@patchmack4469]

as a Land Rover owner (S3 army transportable) i appreciate the alternate use of a Landy, Make Fire !! is that concentration i see on Matts face, or is he ill ?? vary nice video and almost no swearing (industrial language)

[@philipspencer1834]

You blokes have mad skills 👍What is the 2250litre Tornado F3 fuel tank for (in the background at the start) 😎

[@deanedeane4318]

Friggin great job Lads !!! What energy drink do you guys use ??? 😉🙃😎

[@jamesocker5235]

You really got your own museum going

[@oskarbud525]

Always check your 2 step.

[@TheSkylaura]

With such a long drive and all the time spent, if this was not just a job for a friend then I hope you got paid.

[@rat_king-]

that last minute could be a video in of itself. especially the red lining.

[@mikeschillinger4427]

Nice to see captain pugwash again.

[@maurusluctum8886]

That was brilliant. A bunch of lovely slobs fixing mechanical stuff in the wilds being themselves xd Thanks for sharing

[@Ihasanart]

Joe you should have some Foden badge magnets/stickers made just so you can deputise worthy stand-ins when they rise to the occasion like the Hilux.

[@eprohoda]

amigo~ Like~amazing content.👋

[@MrHewes]

Thanks bud

[@alexangus9966]

Are you now the centurion AA ?

[@samleigh7817]

Who else remembers when Centurion was a rank and not a tank? Red line it mate I need a light for my smoke.

[@Brigadier9]

Ave Imperator.

[@philcrockford5534]

Did you climb over the fence down the road at Bovingdon to pick up some spares?

[@MrHewes]

No but I did go to Bov

[@andrewwilliams5929]

Have you got any rare footage of Matt doing some work 😆😆

[@MrHewes]

Nope

[@davids6557]

Bit dodgy with a 11 000 volt line over the tank and using a crane

[@MrHewes]

Wasn’t ideal

[@a53-platty78]

That strap's now LOLER'd.

[@LordInter]

Well that's an interesting tug of war that answers some questions 😂

[@MrHewes]

Real world testing

[@Dave.defender]

I see matt was instrumental in helping fit that 🤣🤣

[@MrHewes]

Absolutely

lovely and safe under 3phase power lines

[@AdamBest1920]

No where near as close as it looked

[@JAY61ish]

repairing a Tank whilst generally fucking about... Good work guys.. reminds me of my Army Days.. Much piss taking and much hilarity.. oh yeah and some actual graft was done..

[@Shatterfyst]

With the Pornhub hat on. 🤣

[@alanwwilkins7788]

Hmmmm crane work under power lines always fun

[@MrHewes]

Was mint

[@AscariGood]

Can't wait for the Hilux to be taken in to have some Warranty work done and they just look at the strain she's been put through 🤣🤣🤣

[@Brigadier9]

Film it as a Secret Shopper. But only after seeing if you can tow a tank with the Hilux.

[@AscariGood]

@@Brigadier9 They've already pulled a centurion with it 🤣

[@jamescharlesworth775]

The amount of middle fingers and insults is perfect

[@russellhenderson8941]

Legendary video this one with attempted wood pile hill climb. 😂

[@michaelreynolds1904]

So are there tanks just all across the countryside in England?

[@MrHewes]

Yup

[@michaelreynolds1904]

@@MrHewes jealous!

[@Spookyb329]

Great video but ffs drag the tank out from under the 11kV lines before you start using the boom next time!!!

I came to watch some larking about but some fool was trying to fix a centurion tank in the middel of it

[@chrisziemba3889]

sorry to say that the only reason to tie anything to a range rover is to drag it to the dump. in my opinion. as for the rest of the day very nice.

[@bilbp41]

How many people does it take to change a clutch?

[@MrHewes]

2 the rest are extras

[@rhydtuned]

Meanwhile, in an undisclosed location, deep in the Ukrainian countryside, Joe and his crack team of tank bodgers are hard at work keeping the war machine going 😂👍

landrover vs toyota the struggle is real
