tug of war with 2 tanks, try and pull it apart...

[@MrHewes]

Ohh I like the sound of this!

[@NUTTER8291]

Good idear BUT unless you do some " modifications " it probably won't split apart.... sadly .. but DEFINITELY worth a try ! Even more so if you use long ish chains and give each tank a bit of speed ( bit like snatch recovery "

[@woooster17]

Would remind me of that scene with the 2 T-Rex in one of the JP films.. the human chew toy..rip! 😄

"The French don't have diesel" 🤣🤣🤣

[@Rover200Power]

The French love their diesel. I think they practically invented the small diesel hatchback.

[@cogboy302]

I've seen folk towed around the campsite at Santa Pod on doors or in inflatable dingys, but never a small French hatchback on its lid. Quality.

[@cogboy302]

I did go car surfing on top of an early '80s Toyota Celica at the Pod once. I fell off at about 30mph. I wouldn't recommend doing it unless you have your big beer coat on.

[@mifunearrancar1053]

I finally found the tutorial on how to fix a french car. Thank you kindly

[@888johnmac]

lol , in the past i've gone sledging on a bonnet towed down a road by a Landie .. never thought of using the whole car

[@ForeverNeverwhere1]

The first and only jet I ever flew was a Prevost in the same livery as the one in your video. A sum total of 2 hours.

It didn’t start as it had seen the white… granted it was snow but not sure it can distinguish 🤣🤣. Least mine sized it’s self and I got the enjoyment of seeing it squashed on the scrap wagon 😁

[@woooster17]

Little French car is thinking.. “so this is Australia.. don’t rate it” 👎🏼🇦🇺

[@forte2523]

I mean, you have a baguette car, British tank. Obviously tank should be on top of car at a considerable speed. If the car did not want to be bottom it should just say stop, legally you have to stop at that point.

[@mitchdaytonam3]

Put various workshop or tank related fluids in the engine instead of oil and see what it’ll run on without blowing up… the catch is you only get one chance to get it wrong, good luck.

[@tripod6406]

Wo wo wo lads, you can't call that a clitterous, you can get a clitterous going, and a clitterous is useful, unlike most French cars.

[@Brigadier9]

Completely snowless down here on the Anglo-Cornish border. Also Jet Provost, couple of CVRTs and some yank truck? 3:07 - Engineer face. Next video you need to drive over the Renault with a tank.

[@landymarv6687]

Play tug of war with the two foden and the Clio in the middle to c if u can tear it apart

[@MrHewes]

Be rude not to!

[@LazurusEnterprises]

Gotta love the sound of those huge engine / turbo stack trucks. I cannot believe that cliotorus actually started after being used as a sled, & with little if any smoke after being upside down. Daniel.

Would love to see full nut and bolt resto of the Clio

[@MrHewes]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Brigadier9]

@@MrHewes Run over it with a tank. I know, not particularly imaginative, but could be fun. If you want imagination, what about hooking up each axle or some structural part to each of the Fodens and tear it in half. Or do the same with a tank. Ya know, actually, tear it in half, THEN drive over it with a tank.

[@neilthomas4407]

I was waiting for the nose of the car to dig in an act as a giant trebuchet!!

[@NUTTER8291]

AGREED !!

[@sirmalus5153]

Yeah, loads of laughs as they get thrown off and squashed flat by the car. Their not long for this world with antics like that.

[@paulcurrah7385]

So funny, that was the 2nd best use for a bland french shopping trolley - 2nd only to crushing it with a tank of course 👊. Maybe you should try your “will it start” technique on the Landy, not sure the roof is strong enough though 😱

[@sbateson67]

Drop it from a height simulate a head on collision

[@ChullsterOG]

5:46 Best scene in the video; one man and his doggy best mate.

[@eddielane9569]

Can't believe you took a nice vehicle and turned it on its head and seriously damaged it. All it needed was a little repair and then it would be back on the road and if you didn't want it you could sell it to somebody and make a little money.

[@ipanzerschrecku4732]

Like the TopGear Toyota that wouldn't die. The Renault that wouldn't surrender!

[@brucehewson5773]

I fully expected the front windscreen to collapse and have the car fill up with snow and dirt. And then the D...n things starts first attempt. wow

[@brddukaty7460]

Peretty sure you don’t pump 🥲 fuel injected vehicle

[@Marshal_6]

Maybe prepare it as a Summer vehicle, a convertible perhaps?

[@patchmack4469]

oh dear - snow start for the Renault, maybe put air in the tire before starting? maybe pour Petrol over the outside to pre warm car maybe use the Foden to drag start maybe give it a damn good John Cleese thrashing with a branch where is 'Flatter Matt' when you need him and some cold start cars never do what you want them to do with no-one inside them no dogs were harmed in the making of this film, but Joe's pride was severely bullied time to remove the car back to the public car park i was just thinking about all your hard work cleaning whistling diesels Chieftain, and all the road dirt getting on it, and now this snow stuff all full of dirt, bet it needs another wash before boarding its luxury yatcht

[@kevinwilliams4899]

Get an RAF Queen Mary Trailer with a suitable tractor unit and put a dismantled Provost on it make different but great display piece.

[@mightbejoshuaa9772]

When's your birthday ? I am sending you some new overalls haha, love the vids as always guys 👍

[@teamidris]

steps. Weld a set of steps onto the Clio for working on tank engines.

[@jamesmccann531]

"If you slam the drivers door really hard, it should start" Only the French would be able to make a vehicle that goes wrong in that way.

[@Hide.the.Salami]

rather disappointed to watch that entire thing just to see it was still french at the end :(

[@1chish]

One has flown a Jet Provost after many hours in a Chipmunk. Not bad for an ATC cadet. I recall flying the Chippie along the required railway line back to RAF Wittering when the pilot shouted 'I have control' threw it hard to Port while a Victor went past. I wouldn't say it was close but I counted rivets. The pilot muttered some words I had never heard before about 'paperwork! (innocent lad ....) But what better use for a piece of Frogness than this!

[@woooster17]

Same.. 3 flights in a Chipmunk as an ATC cadet many moons ago. First was AEF, the latter 2 specifically aerobatics. I’ll always remember the ground crew strapping me in and tucking a sick bag under the strap saying ‘good luck’ 😄 Never flew in a JP though..

[@1chish]

@@woooster17 Great times for me have to say. 150 City of Oxford Squadron. Actually got 3 stripes up!

[@rocksnot952]

Is that a Provost? Why don't you mend it?

its destined to be squashed by a tank i think, but now it starts again for sure you should have some fun first
