We had an old 60s unimog we used for forestry. We had a shutdown in Devon one morning in the 90s and parked up near an isolated bungalow. This old guy comes flying out, shouting "Unimog! Unimog!". We got chatting and it turned out he was German and worked in the mercedes factory in the same year building that same model. He'd moved over in the 80s and retired. Weird coincidence, but it was great to see him so happy to see a mog.
1:18 That speedo says you were doing about 85 KM/H, not mile. The Mogs I've seen here are usually out of gears by 80-100kmh, 100kmh with a custom final drive swap.
It’s perfect for British roads-compact enough to navigate easily, with ride height and off-road-capable suspension that can handle the typical British potholes. Well, maybe not all of them, but most!
I busted out laughing out loud- when you chucked the bag in the back of the Mog, getting off your new Volvo - dang that - I really was laughing! Glad you did get hurt Scotty!
I SEEN ONE of the freeway here in Australia. A fertiliser spreading contractor. They always have the 4x4 version of trucks and this was a fairly new unimog.
Watched the vid now 5 or 10 times, still can't stop observing scotty trying not to laugh. I think I change my opinion from Hanomag Robust 900 to same Unimog. It's much faster (80mph) and more universal. And you can get your fam for picnic
i had a unimog U1500 for 20 years and transporting sugar beets, the trailor weighting 30tones and the unimog loaded 10-11tones 1000% bulletproof machine, but for daily shoping i dont now..
Please more longform content like this! Or even something like a monthly livestream here on YT. I dont care if you are just working on cars and smashing beers, im in! ❤
Id like to see a unimog vs volvo thingy vs land rover 101 to see what theyre all like as im really considering getting one to convert into a mobile home as ive already got a 200tdi defender with a roof tent
This is a U406 my Favorite is the U5023 with the 5.1 litre Inline-4 16 Valve Turbodiesel 17:1 compression ratio 100 x 135mm 231 PS and 900 NM Euro 6 it has variable valve timing too 225000 € with 1836 kilometers 😱

Whoever the owner is, those style of rear lights have 0 light output with a weak reflector behind it.(some models of this light have no reflector, only black plastic so you only have the light of the bulb itself), I wouldnt say its dangerous, i know its compliant but its shit. You can buy an actros rear light with 6 functions (6 slotted) which is period correct and oem+ and looks good. Imo
My dad has a 2004 defender. Its a good car, except wind noise and terrible gearing (max speed at 130kmh with 160hp). I think uts like 90-100db at 100kmh 😅
Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Yes it is.
bit longer answer: hell yeah brother

oil for nothin, fuel for free
That's the way you do it, drive the Unimog on the MTV
@@ProjectEurobeat i want my, i want my, i want my unimog
money for nothing, Unimog for free
Cuz chicks have cooties
Scotty is like Whistlindiesel 2 years ago, but in British
Underrated comment⬆️
Scott is authentic and more down to earth
@@Dmaoa W is destruction, this dude is him
also this guy is a massive pussy and only drives over stuff any normal small hyundai hatch could get over in a unimog and talks like its impressive
Came here for the unimog, subscribed for the haircut.. 😊
- What is the hardest terrain a Unimog can pass through?
- Yes!
the way it slid out and missed the blanket but you didnt refilm. Unmatched continuity. 100/10 And knowingly calling a Vectra an Astra. 1000/10
I have always wanted a unimog to kit out as a camper , what a beautiful diesel maxhine
The Mr Hewes colab goes hard
This is not a truck or a tractor it is both. Awesome!
"TRUCTOR"

Usually 90 km/h is the maximum speed on any Unimog
it was a joke dude
Literally the best "small" truck ever made
Not even an question, perfect grocery getter
Have to admit: I've taken my Mog to Tesco a few times. You never have any trouble finding it in the car park when you come back out.
"Didn't hurt"
Stands like a used stork 6:01
Got metal rods in my back, can’t bend it no matter what 😎

Jackets being released on my birthday, how convenient!
He's like the most East European british person
4:42 Isn't that a Vectra?
That’s bad ass love the pto and 3pt hitch
2 pto`s, rear and front... plus the potential hydraulics outlets...
it looks like that german shepard with no neck
...especially if your commute is across a mountain.
Such an honour going to Ted's house and meeting his human.
Starting up at 6.30 and waiting for the air brakes to get to pressure doesn’t go down too well with your neighbours. I know from experience.
Finally the perfect commuter vehicle for where I live
my god, I think I've found the most British channel on youtube. You must be the type of people the French hate the most, and I'm here for it.
Screw practicality. Pure awesomeness!!!
I love how he throws the carton of eggs into the back of the truck!
I also like my eggs runny
I've put a pair of u1700l axles on a u1300l, drove it around my city. Fun truck. Near Seattle washington. Usa West coast unimog dummy, right here.

In Germany Unimogs are expensive!
they're expensive in the UK too haha
Now i dont want to see how much they cost in poland
@@kinczus1 half price, po naprawy spierdalanego grata with best quality. Most reliable handcraft polish quality.

Please tell me a location where those are cheap.
I wish I ran on chip fat as well as you all do!
The answer is yes and will always be yes

"unimog is a practical daily car" you are crazy, I like You 😂😂😂😂😂❤
so practical
this is the video I've been waiting for haha :)

So in England eggs aren’t kept in the refrigerator?

SCOTTY UPLOADED A NEW VIDEO W
The collab I never knew I needed
I love this
It doesn't say but it looks like the U1600 and its 80km/hr..... but he had it up to 85. Very nice vehicle.
This made me want one
1:38 is the same place as that video of the guy with the motorcylcle
No that was Rufford Ford, it’s been permanently shut to motor vehicles after that incident
What lifted truck drivers think they’re driving
Why am i feeling i am watching Whistlin Diesel's british cousin.
scotty has a house now he has upgraded
How’s the Trabant doing?
I get confused by the license laws in the UK, some Unimogs can be driven on a car license, others can't?
If the pay load doesn't exceed 3500kg..I think its OK on a car license but maybe that's changed
omg that is my dream. I have only small nissan Terrano, but Unimog or maybe small V3S damn that would be amazing
Dude looks like he could be my brother. Mullet glasses and all
My ultimate dream is to drive a UNIMOG daily and go everywhere.
no wonder it sounds so sharp when the exhaust pipe is connected almost in front of the muffler xD
Scotty You Leg 🍗 End (Legend)
💪💪
Earned a bloody sub!
how much did u ppay for that one looks awsome
Is that MrHewes by any chance 😂
Wait. Springfields is still a thing?
3:45
Certified "Marcy! Make me another sandwich!" moment right there...
Id like to see a unimog vs volvo thingy vs land rover 101 to see what theyre all like as im really considering getting one to convert into a mobile home as ive already got a 200tdi defender with a roof tent
The volvo thingy that was in the video with the girl who owned it
Why are it light so low😅
Hey up mate you forgot to mention how good the working gears are in traffic jams apart from that i agree fully with Mog's as a daily
What year,model, and engine ?
Very practical
When is the rabat rally
yes
I love SWB Unimogs 👍😜
How are those tractor tires road legal though ?
There's also no way they're rated for over 60mph !
And no front number plate?

How are there no comments about what he did with those eggs! Is that normal outside the US?!
Yes, unwashed eggs don’t need to be refrigerated

I like your style you mad bastard 😂😂 I have a rb44 turned into a camper.new sub 👊 OUT
Standard truck size here in America
yes, and the people too. haha
"small practical city car"
Wish these were common in north america
The answer is obviously yes.
Can a literal tractor with a pto shaft and hydraulic hitch and everything be your daily? 😂
In 2006 I wanted to buy a deuce and a half for driving to school. Same same, daily the birxh.
Sits at 80mph 😂😂😂
They should make a mini unimog haha
Nice Picknick

Why’s it a q plate?
So that's what a carlsberg drinker looks like
yes, did for 2 years, perfect grocery getter
I used one of your short videos in my last video at the end, is that ok?
i once drove over a ditch so fast in a unimog that the fucking bonnet opened.
I’ve got one and I’m 16 use it as a daily drive
its the European mullet for me
The only thing I don't like about this video is the welding of the muffler.😂
Scotty, mr hewes colab! Well f*** me!
