- Will Trialling Wreck our Modified New car? Lands End Trial Finale // Part 3. In this full length episode Jonny Smith and Sion Ellis from Auto Max www.automax-wales.com/ take their new Kia 'Cant' Picanto 1.0 turbo GT Line on the 100th Landsend Trial. This may be the most cost effective motorsport left, but it's definitely not the mildest.
Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
The trial was designed over 100 years ago to prove the robustness and reliability of new motorcycles. Then cars started entering. 2024 marked the 100th running event, so Jonny wanted to see if a new car could handle the punishment, but also the fact it requires staying up for over 24-hours...

Any other channel would've milked this fantastic idea over many more videos... this is why Jonny's the greatest!
best telly in ages
Ahahahah Jonny pinned this comment! Good for you, Jonny
I would’ve happily watched more episodes!
Would it, though? 3 episodes is already enough & all of it could be condensed into one episode like how Westen Champlin does it
1 episode per stage half hour each, edited to oblivion for additional padding 😂
This might be one of the best automotive videos to ever be put out on TH-cam. Hats off to everyone involved in the production on this.
Many thanks. We really appreciate the feedback.
To all the Marshalls and all the Volunteers can I say a BIG THANK YOU on behalf of all those taking part as an Armchair Spectator.
Kia, Jonny, Sion, Phil & Damo (getting wet and cold for Jonny) and all his helpers Cheers!
100%. It’s the 24 hour volunteers who make events like this possible.
You get A for effort Mate. The Kia gets an A, your co-pilot gets an A for prep and pushing you the old man!
And the club gets A+ for a fantastic event and the effort and commitment to put this trials on year after year. Cheers all. 🇨🇦
Thank you chap 💪🏽
Really enjoyed this.Thanks to all the camera crew for the footage.The Cant did you proud
Johnny has big balls. He could've failed in one of the early sections and.. flop, no video.
But he took the risk and we now get to enjoy this great experience with him.
Jonny is such a relatable and likable human.
Sleep deprived Jonny marvelling over hairy moss is hilarious
😳
I used to have one of their car stereos back in the 80s. No, wait....
The look on Sion’s face just added to it 😂
‘Bollock Porridge” was my favourite bit of the video
Also use on Jonny's VW eUP review 4 years ago. Still make s me chuckle though 😁
T-Shirt ideas No.2 & 3:
"Get The Weave On!"
"Weave, you Cant!" 😁
If Jonny had A Top Gear type studio the Cant would be up on the ramp on display. Top notch episode!
This series Definitely convinced me that the mighty cant should be a high contender for my first car
A proper trooper is the Cant.
I never liked Hyundai/KIA, but I've been doing quite a bit of research on their models lately and actually they aren't as bad as I thought.
@@N1ckZaren’t as bad? They are smashing the life out of it the i30N is not to be messed with and even for the EVangelists you have ionic5N now, I like you 5 years ago never would have bought one but now? Definitely will buy an N for a track car at some point when my next catastrophic failure happens
I always have lanyards on cameras just incase their primary fixing fails.
@@AI-Records24 the IONIQ 5 N is one of my favourite EVs. It has the fake simulated gearbox which feels like a real ICE car. If you are in a gear that's too high, the torque is low. It also has a fake rev limiter and fake sound. It's really cool. I am more into Audis and BMWs though.
Jonny, This was amazing . I gotta tell ya . Firstly A BIG UP to Phil .. what a creation he did .. and everyone involved ! That Kia CANT is awesome. Please Kia do not scrap the CANT 💯💯👍👍
Wow what an experience Jonny and Sion! The stamina needed for organising,competing and marshalling such an event is epic.
The sheer dedication of all the volunteers standing on the side of a wet cliff edge is on a par with 🇮🇲 TT marshalls 👏 and shows the dedication like minded people have to keep all forms of motorsport accessible to all.👌
As someone who organised events which required a large number of volunteers I’d just like to give a massive shout out to those legendary souls braving all the conditions and difficulties so that this event can happen. Our mantra to the competitors was always “don’t forget to thank the volunteers”. Well done to all involved.
Two great catchphrases - Sion's "don't stop" and Paul Whitehouse's "don't wind"
This series was awesome to watch, thank you!
In an era of motorsport led by Verstappen's predictable dominance, this is the marvelous stuff we need Jonny & Sion ( and Kia Cant, hero hatchback) 👍🙏 All great fun, great viewing, and an amazing guest appearance by Daft Punk as your co-driver at about 30mins in too...
Lovely that British politeness is sprinkled throughout the event at every opportunity too. In one word, hurrah!!
Hats off to Lando winning in Miami then haha
@@user-vk4vd7vr5tYeh, jinxed him! 🤣
Thankyou Jonny and your entire team, filming in rain and mud and the Motor Club for making this such a great experience for us to watch. ❤
Brilliant.
Well done gentlemen.
Well done Cant 🏁👍
Thanks Jonny from the Cradocks. Tim was Chief Marshall for the MCCTrials for many years after at least ten years of competing with Ken Green and Ron& Myrtle in their Beetle Team. Ben and Dan were also involved as Navigators and later as Marshall’s. Everything you have said is true. Well done!
That was bleddy brilliant. Thanks Jonny and Sion and crew. I would do this in my old Peugeot 305 estate if it was still around. Proper farm car it was.
Yes KIA have a change of heart ❤️ please don't crush the KIA Cant try to get a display area in your Head quarters for Kia prosperity that the old face lift picanto was a strong little car that was too good to crush. This comes from one of your loyal customers. ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️
This is absolutely brilliant Jonny, loved it. Get back there next year with another car! I vote the Smart Roadster!
I had a grin on my face for the whole video - this was absolutely fantastic, and big thanks to Sion for prepping the car and being an excellet co-driver. I did chuckle at 18:14 "extendable wand" because I'm really mature like that - it sounds like something Jonny would call someone who has annoyed him!
Excellent effort....!
Two mates just having a laugh...👌
Something else on my bucket list
This is joyous British eccentricity summed up in what has to be one of your best films so far Johnny. Chapeau to the cant as well. Dau ddyn mewn un cant 👌🚙
Epic Sunday entertainment!
🤘🏽
Excellent result. I bounced in Dellow MYP 916 @ 14:00 for years then we moved to a Troll. They are fantastic trials cars.
Loved the 3 CANT vids Jonny. The trial looked like so much fun. Well done and it was fascinating seeing the mods Sion did, Will be looking for his channel for sure
We CANT thank you enough for watching. Cheers v much.
Hopefully the Cant can go on some sort of museum display, really needs to be in a Picanto ad now
Suzuki X-90! Cometh the rally, cometh the ideal car. In all my years of being a petrolhead, I never saw the point of the X-90 monstrosity. Until now! What a car! Well done with the Cant, I imagine that you were beyond knackered at the end. Well done!
Amazing video series. Thank you, Jonny. As for my weapon of choice? One narrow RWD rear-engined car which no one likes (so is cheap!) is a mid-2010s Renault Twingo. The tricky bit might be removing modern safety kit/electronics but I wonder how one might do, given similar mods to the Cant.
What a brilliant video! My favourite from the channel so far. The sort of motorsport absolutely anyone can take part in with just a basic set of tools. Love it.
Brilliant stuff, thanks Jonny (and the whole team).
"Remember the Cant"
Was waiting for someone to make an Expanse reference :D
Great series Jonny. I enjoyed every bit of it. That little Kia is a star.
Was great to meet you at the start. Glad you had a good event. Our orange beetle got us a Silver award.
Dream car would probably be an Escort for it. Though I am very happy with the beetle.
Absolutely brilliant. Great format for the miniseries ending in a bumper episode on the event. I know there must have been a huge amount or effort to produce and edit this, but it was all worthwhile and something I'm sure we all want to see more of.
Jonny and The Late Brake Show at their best, a great mini-series 👍. Chapeau to Sion and the videographers as well.
As someone grom Cornwall, its great to see you documentaing this
🤘🏽
Crash. Bang. Wallop, what a video. Honestly one of the best things I've ever watched on TH-cam, Jonny has delivered (and keeps delivering) the motoring content we all want that TV dosent give us. Keep it up dude, amazing. I wanna do a trial now. And get a piCANTo too 😄
Thank you so much for taking time to watch it. 👌🏾
Rally drivers paraphrase Cyndi Lauper. "Guys just want to have fun!"
Just before Jonny asked what would you trial, I was thinking I would want to take a Citroen 2CV there. A small car that can!
2cvs are very popular.
Thanks for the best ever Late Brake Show ever! I love watching trials as the variety of cars and bikes makes it so interesting. My ideal trials car would be a Ford Model A roadster with a stonking great Ford V8 under the hood as brute horsepower is sometimes the only way to get up those hills. If you've got the trialling bug you should enter the Exeter trial and face the infamous Simms Hill which makes even the hills of The Lands End Trial pale into insignificance. Thanks again Jonny and I'll see you conquer the mighty Simms!
Those Marshalls are amazing. Great work in keeping this event going. Good work with the Cant.
This has to be one of the single greatest TH-cam endeavours I have ever seen. You guys are absolute rockstars and thank you for bringing this to our screens. As for what I would choose, I'd probably go for a Reliant Scimitar SE5: RWD, lightweight with big V6 power. Only issue is there aren't many bad ones left to do it to
Well done to everyone involved! Id be interested in a youtube short where you get the cant up on the ramp to see how well it held up.
Jonny, What can I say that has not already been said. How do you continue to make your content better and better each time. The production quality, commitment is second to none and makes me smile knowing you have not been swallowed by the dark side and made to conform to TV standards, that are no where near close to the quality and output you and your team deliver on this channel. Superb and onwards to 750k subscribers.
Well done,Jonny,Sion, and the Cant! At least you all survived. Nice to see David Richards too!
Really enjoyed this mini series. Top work car perv
Hi Johnny (and Team), another great video series. Just one thing, there's no 'e in Bridgwater 😂
Absolutely brilliant Jonny! It was so tense watching the Cant, willing it to get to the top.
No such word as Cant!
Eddie’s branch line was a pig, with the hairpin at the start and deep mud. That was my first foot fault (a fail for a bike) of the event. Was gutted at the time. Just need to go back next year and try again. 😂 That’s the beauty of these events. It is achievable, but it all needs to come together for the medal, and when it doesn’t, you just want to come back and have another go.
Agree. We queued for 1.5hrs for this one, and that meant Blue Hills was tackled after dark. Sub optimal. The mud here was horrendous.
@@TheLateBrakeShow The weather was horrendous at the end. Although by that stage I was tucked up in the bar at the hotel with friends enjoying a well deserved beer! 🥳 Superb series. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing it from a different perspective. Eager to get to the Peak District towards end of summer.
This looks like great fun.
Thank you Jonny and Sion this was an absolutely awesome video. It's great to see a race event that the competres don't have to be rich or have a stack of sponsors.
Thankyou Johnny for a superb odyssey.Was with you every step of the way willing the Cant up those brutal inclines while bouncing in my kitchen chair…!Best thing on Utube. Oh and my car of choice would be my first car, a 1971 Chrysler Simca 1100. Why?Apparently it’s new front wheel drive for a small hatchback convinced VW to rethink the rear wheel setup of the mighty Beetle and paved the way for the Polo and Golf.The grandaddy of the Cant?Would love to see it spinning up those Blue remembered hills.
Well done both fair play !
Really enjoyed that. If EVs are allowed, a jacked-up VW e-up would be my choice. Not too heavy, loads of torque and the essential heated seats.
Range..
Glad I finally found the time to watch this.
Another great video Jonny & co !
I'm about to move to Cornwall and this is going to be on my long list of new things to do and see👍.
Great series, please make it an annual video set with a new car each year.
Annual? That's a top idea. Different beast each time?
@@TheLateBrakeShowthe cant deserves a rematch at the least
Just to confuse people I'd like to track down a factory 4x2 Series 1 Land Rover for a trial. I imagine it would be hopeless as a rear wheel drive car with no weight over the rear.
I've absolutely loved this series and trialing is definitely a motorsport that doesn't get enough attention.
My first "trials" on similar trails in a pumpkin-orange Datsun B-210!.
What a car!
Only halfway through but cracking episode Jonny. Thanks for bringing us something different
Hats off to those volunteers out in all that dark stormy night stuff! Ithey are the backbone of that trial.well done Jonny I felt those nerves even from behind the screen … just realising the pressure. 👏👏👏👏👏 well done Sean too great copilot and car builder 👏👍
This is great! ❤
My choice Johnny, 1989 Skoda 136 Rapid Coupé Great cheap cars in their day and great off road.
Love them. Many still compete.
@@TheLateBrakeShow Gearbox is a weakness in the Skud for trialling.....think fitting a type 2 box is the answer
I have a Picanto GT Line S turbo for my 65 mile a day commute......brilliant cars! Really enjoyed this series, was on the edge of my seat the whole time!
Cheers v much. Why not make it all terrain?
Hey guys, this series was great. How much fun was that!!!! Maybe gambler 500 next over here in the states? Good times!!!! Thank you !!!! can't could
Ah, that AX brings back memories of my first car.
Same here, they are as tough as nails despite appearing to be incredibly flimsy.
I'd trial a Lada Riva (the Fiat 124 derivative). I once was a passenger in one high into the Kazakhstan mountains near Almati and it really was a mountain goat, driving past lots of 4x4s. Sadly I lost the photo evidence of this thing going over massive boulders. The driver's skill was off the chart, but the car was exceptional for something so basic.
Such a great series, thanks for bringing us along. Sion was the perfect teammate. Cracking efforts all around, not least the little Cant! Superb coverage and showing warts and all. This is why we love The Late Brake Show.
What an epic tale, wonderfully told. So much of the atmosphere brought to the viewer. Well done and thank you to the whole team involved 👌👏
The rules in a way have held back the Cant, a set of knobbly mud tyres and she’d be unstoppable! Still did very well and you should be proud. Great job
True. Tyre choice is absolutely key.
@@TheLateBrakeShow Black round Pirelli.
Same rules for everyone..
What a CANT!!! Great work Sion on preparing the care for the gruelling trial and you Jonny on your driving skills.
A big thank you to your video and editing team. Really showed what the poor little car went through. Well done another great video.
Great stuff guys, would like to see more of this in the future! I have a Picanto GTLine S, so made it extra special.
I absolutely flippin loved this Jonny! Superb. Absolutely superb. Sion was great throughout this trilogy too.
Great video. We were car 215 an orange beetle. We have some in car videos on our channel including us nearly rolling the car on Blue Hills.
I'm always tempted to try a class 1 for classic trials. Had a mg maestro for it. But someone wanted to buy it off me.
This is clearly a Spectator Sport for me 😅 but, crikey well done ALL of you. What a fantastic set of videos, they have held me from start to finish and Jonny, you drove quite well 🤣
Thank you Jonny.Probably the best thing I’ve seen you do.
In about 17 years watching TH-cam, this is one, if not the, best pair of films I've ever seen. I never did trials, but am a stage/road rally veteran....and this absolutely captures the excitement of a club motorsport event. Hopefully it'll entice some badly-needed young blood into a sport that gave me so much pleasure over the years. Well done, guys.....and thankyou.
Great video. The only car youtube channel that puts everything on the line in the name of variety. You shun the algorithm, you shun the classic youtuber personality and you follow your sense of taste. It's heartening to see that it's successful.
Fantastic video! Great event, great car, great people. Well don't to all.
Absolutely brilliant series. Loved every episode. More similar content please. And to answer your question, I'd love to take my Corsa turbo trailing. Maybe one day 👍
I really wasnt expecting to be on the edge of my seat, but holy wow, what an exciting run! The lil Cant really performed better than expected. Really lovely scenery, and great professional filming and editing. Just brilliant!
Didn't know this event existed. Definitely on my bucket list now. I'd love to do it in a proton jumbuck or a daihatsu copen
I've never sat on my seat and twitched my legs so much whilst watching the muddy hill climbs. Brilliant stuff Jonny.
Brilliant to watch, a great video, well done to everybody involved in getting the Cant to the finish
What a plucky little Cant! Jonny, you and Sion deserve medals - up for 37 hours, fighting through mud, rivers and vertical slopes, and as for the marshalls - total heroes. This episode has been EPIC and thank you for a fabulous series and for promoting such a great sport!
I think this may have been my favourite episode, loved every minute.
What a brilliant set of episodes. This deserves to get hundreds of thousands of views and is a great interesting journey. Well done to you Jonny and the crew to put together such a great story.
Many thanks. Let's hope it's a slow burner.
I don’t need one, but this makes me want a Picanto for scooching around town! This is such a fantastic video. The work that’s gone in is obvious and hugely appreciated. The pair of you did amazing work and the edit is on point!
Great series of videos, and thank you for using a prototype and not destroying a perfectly good car like other channels do, really enjoyed these videos👍
I thoroughly enjoyed this series! Thanks Jonny!
Thanks Jonny, great video.
Very well done for finishing the trial, it's a great challenge. I was there with an MG Midget.
Happy to subscribe.
This is television quality series. The best show I’ve seen on TH-cam
Really? Wow, praise indeed. Thanks!
Excellent show, good work everyone involved.
This, and the previous two videos were great fun. Love seeing people having a fun experience with their cars. Thanks for sharing, and we're happy the Kia "Cant" had a celebratory send-off.
One of your best EVER Jonny ...really great fun to watch
We were camped up at Perranporth petrol station watching the cars and bikes come through. Didn't see you but glad you made it through.
