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.
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
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.
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
This is my eternal struggle. Bought a Land Cruiser, told myself I was going to daily drive it for a bit...modded it into a rock crawler. Then I was like "I'll get a Subaru as a daily, that's practical"....rally car now. I need help
@@E_tiBEAMERBOY both are ongoing projects, but there's about $15k in the Land Cruiser and about $7k into the WRX. The LC will probably get another $5-7k before I'm satisfied for a while and the WRX probably needs another $5k. It's slow going, but worth it here in Utah. Some of the best off roading in the world and some of the best dirt roads in the middle of nowhere.
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!!
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
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.
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 had a Suzuki vitara fat boy - 22 inch wheels, soft top, all electronics....looked a million dollars.....everyone commented on it.....but it drove rubbish. Owned it 2 years and was reliable.
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'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.
It's body on frame, if the frame is solid and there are no sharp rusty bits showing with all the doors closed then it will pass. On a thing like this none of the rust we've seen is structural.
@@ChuckFickens1972 It's also amazing how quickly rust can pop up between tickets. I've been under my 4x4 while it has been MOT'd and the tester goes through it with me. Every year something different rust wise 😢 . Ahh well, joys of owning Landies 😅
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).
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 think he might have been in 4WD at 9:13 you can see the splash from the passenger side front wheel. The drivers side one might not have been because it doesn't have a locked front diff. It looks like the rear axle does the same when he tried doing doughnuts at 3:15. Although that might have been because he was pulling the handbrake(?) although it does look like the drivers side was spinning while the passengers wasn't.
I have 2nd Gen 2000 Vitara here in Canada and the thing is a lil' beastie! I've since put a 2.5" suspension lift and 29" tires on it and it goes any where I want it to!
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.
My brother and I once took a grand vitara , slapped an old man emu suspension , some risers, under carriage protection, bigger tires and just went on a 4000km off-roading road trip, we beat that poor thing around and it took it like a champ. One thing is that because the vitara is so light it’s a lot easier to get stuck in certain places than on heavier and more powerful vehicles, specially when you don’t know what you are doing
Friend bought a new Vitara Commercial 1.9 diesel, put some all terrain tires on , rear difflock and lower transfer gears and it was superb in the rough stuff.
The top gear formula is tried and true; but its key to have good chemistry and authenticity. That is something that the Grand Tour has lost. Really loving this content and hoping it keeps going! Im sure its a good thing so many compare you to Top Gear, and its fantastic entertainment!
Had a £700ish Opel Frontera a few years back, and that thing was super fun to drive off road! And I made some cash with it during winter when I got to pull people out the ditch!

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.
I saw the insta post about this the other day lol, early btw
Andy what a legend, that's what being part of the car community is all about
"one hand on top of the steering wheel"
didn't you go on a 5 minute rant about how unsafe that it in one of your podcasts?
and how people who do that look like.... wasn't it something like low life's?
Hope Andy has seen the comments section here, the appreciation is awesome. Legend.
