Safari Cars are like rally cars but for travelling, having fun and everyday use instead of racing. They are modified for offroading but not as much as offoad cars and things like the engine stay stock in most cases. :D
That Safari Bentley is real, it was built for and used on the Amazon Prime show, The Grand Tour.
the call of duty lobby music gives my whole body a shiver
Why a safari car? Fun! It's all about the smiles per mile. I live in northern NV on a dirt road. There are thousands of miles of dirt roads in NV and bombing around them in a safari car is a blast. I have an old cheap C3 Corvette and plan to do the safari treatment to it. It's an L48 car so not a ton of HP (in stock form) but a lot of torque with an automatic transmission so great for kicking the back end loose around the corners. I'm also going to do rally cross events which is another thing safari cars can do.
Would have been nice to shine a light on the original “Safari” cars that competed in rally’s like the East Africa Safari and Dakar.
Great point! Perhaps if I do a review on one of these cars one day, I’ll have to make that reference to close the loop.
@@velocitycrew ye old rally raid cars really fit the definition of what a modern "safari car" build is but you can really see inspirations from many offroad racers in many builds
Thought you had 100x subscribers keep it up
I’ll never (maybe I’m lying) get a safari car, but man I do appreciate how badass and unique they are. Awesome video! This market has exploded. Especially on BaT. Lot of them go on there now
I don’t even wanna look! Also thanks for the feedback.
Nice Black Ops 2 background song!
Safari cars are cool af. Alter ego machines, just like mini trucks(also super cool)
I was considering doing this to my Acura RSX. I'm pretty sure I could use 2002-2006 CRV/Element struts to lift it as well as a few other things.
As a Rally Raid and Dakar fan, this has always spoken to me. That last purple Keen's truly embodies the No Fuchs Given attitude.
The halo soundtrack in the background is a fantastic touch
I have a 2002 BMW Z3 M roadster and I had it on jack stands doing some work on it and I got the Safari bug now and want to big tire lift to it.
id love a part 2 where you feature more awesome builds!
Now I really started considering giving my miata a safari treatment
I'm contemplating doing something like this to an Audi TT Mk 3 for my future car lol
The Bentley is Jeremy Clarkson's car from Grand Tour
The green Bentley is from the grand tour
been wanting to pick up a brz to lift an inch or 2 and throw a set of 16 inch wheels and a/t tires on
Bonus points should include after-market control arms to compensate for the taller lift.
I’m doing it to my old minivan for actually camping with my family and actually overland/ fire roads for hunting. 2012 grand caravan 230000 k miles so yeah junk yard parts
Was thinking of safari celica gt four
Isn't that Jeremy Clarkson's Bentley? The green one?
I disliked on accident and immediately liked to make up for it hopefully. Great video! I’d love to build a safari car out of a Porsche 944 or 924
so the term safari car as we are using it here is completely different and unrelated from the other kind of safari car. the safari car that we are thinking of is a very specific kind of rally car (at least to start) this stems from rally safari Kenya. the toughest event on the historical WRC calendar. for the event, the cars were given armour and lifts not present at any other event just to survive the race. over the years they have been cartoonized by the likes of kelly moss and others. for a "pure" safari car look at the Tuthill Porsche rally cars they take to the safari Kenya today. the biggest problem with most safari cars you will see that people have built is they have no roll cage or chassis stiffening, they have no underbody protection, and they have the wrong kind of tyres and wheels. now we are seeing people use K034's (don't get me wrong they're great tyres and I had them on my 911 too, they're just more oriented to slow speed and technical off-roading) instead of gravel racing tyres. the roof racks are also another modern addition, and again I did and occasionally do still have one on my road 911, but typically you do not want the weight up high, and you definitely do not want to put tyres on the roof as if you do roll over you will not only suffer the damage from the roll but you will also lose all your spares. by the way im not knocking your video, its great, i just happen to specialize in this and have a little extra context to add
Why wouldn't or shouldn't it work it's no different from lifting the suspension on any truck or SUV with the only real drawbacks being road noise ride quality and fuel mileage which is what sport coupes and sedans are really made for but if you buy or build a vehicle just for off road fun than those things really don't matter I really love the looks of these things and actual off road functionality is a great bonus I totally want one
Would the AMC EAGLE SX4 be a safari car ?
1.42 Flennnnnnnnnnn
I wish I didn’t trade in my dodge magnum it would be a fantastic safari car especially the all wheel drive v8
Does it not come from the Safari rally rather than land rovers?
1937 Fangio Coupe!
.16 Gambler 500!!
9:39 looks liek they were right and now we got the 911 Dakar
It seams more group b related than safari cars
Black ops 2 music? Lmao
It’s Halo music

its simple physics, a tall heavy suv chassis does many things worse than a car chassis does. fuel economy, handling, acceleration, braking, cog, aero etc. just because we want some ground clearance we have to deal with all those disadvantages?
no thanks.
Luxury cars becoming SUVs and Luxury SUVs becoming cars. What's the point?
