I'm not impressed until I see the 747 on full thrust pulling the other way.
Hehehhehe
Reverse throttle or pushback on a 747 is not very fast
cavan miller It's not about speed but about torque...
Thom Valk Glad GE and Rolls Royce know speed is important! :)
Thom Valk , How much torque do you think a boeing 747 has? Alot more then a Touareg I presume
I think a lot of people are missing the point.. This is a 2004 Touareg, this thing was an absolute beast. Essentially it was a 150K SUV that VW sold for 70K. It's suspension was and still is unmatched by any other SUV, it was simply so ahead of it's time that the average person neglected to see what it really was. VW used to make amazing cars, like the Phaeton, but the US market just wouldn't accept them as what they were, Now they have plants in Mexico and Tennessee, and they make them just the way Americans want them, cheap.
I planning to buy a 2006 Touareg or a Phaeton V10 of course I know there is phaeton V12 but that's not in my price range what's your advice?
Both cars are amazing. They are both big cars with big engines, so in reality the only thing you should look at when deciding between the two is what you plan on doing with the car. If you get a lot of snow or ever plan on taking the car off road then I'd go with the Touareg, it is available with AWD so it can take you anywhere without you having to worry about the weather or terrain. The Phaeton is great and could still handle snow, but not as well. The Phaeton is basically a Bentley with a different badge, it is far more luxurious than the Touareg.. Another thing to look at would be replacement parts should you ever need them. Parts for the Phaeton would be hard to come by and therefore more expensive. I'd go with the Touareg simply because of those two reasons. But if you like the more luxurious features that the Phaeton offers then go with that. You can't go wrong either way, both cars are amazing.
They are great cars. But you better have really deep pockets if you want to keep them running.
In 2003 while spending some time in Germany we ended up with a new rental Toureg diesel V10. I thought it was a just normal big SUV so I let my wife drive it on the autobahn. I was napping, but when my wife said it was faster than the Mercedes we rented some weeks before, I woke up. I saw that she was going over 200 kmh. So I told her to pull over, so I could drive it. It had a factory stick and I think it was the fastest R50 model. Boy, that was one fast and comfy SUV.
Fast forward to 2016 and we're back in the US and we needed to find a good RV tow vehicle for long trips. So the wife says why not get a used Toureg V10 diesel? I could find just a few for sale in the US. I almost bought one, but after asking around, I heard that at around 100K miles, you might need to replace the turbos and/or other parts. But in a Toureg V10, it turns out that the cost of the part is a small fraction of the real cost: Since that V10 is such a huge hunk of aluminum, in order to swap in the new parts, you need to drop the whole engine, transmission, and the front axle. And you need a special hydraulic table to do this work. US VW dealers can't or don't want to do this. The Toureg V10 also has all kinds of other complications, like two independent 12 volt batteries and other Veyron design experiments. So maintaining a V10 Toureg is either incredibly expensive or just not possible, unless you are related to what's left of VW management.
The US market doesn’t accept them because why would you pay over 50 grand for a VW when you could get an Audi or Porsche instead? No one needs the torque of these large engine diesels in America. American roads are appropriate for cars with power not torque
This is not 2004 touareg . Its 2006 or 07
Im honestly more impressed by the 4.3 tons ballast
thats
kind of insane
like, thats one relatively big car per suspension-corner

Claudiu Ioncea the plane is fake
Just look at the engines , a 747 doesnt have engines put together when on a real 747 the engines are separate on the wing and if you compare more you will see more evidence that the plane is fake
The plane was real and worked for British Airways, and in the film "007-Casino Royale" it played the experimental plane. That's why the engines look so weird.
@@Valaki415
Boeing 747 G-BDXJ, "City of Birmingham," is absolutely a real 747.
It flew for British Airways for 22 years before selling it to
European Aviation Air Charter for holiday and ad-hoc flights. They used it for a year and then sold it to
Air Atlanta Europe, who used it for a year of charter flights. Air Atlanta Europe then ceased 747 operations and retired it.
Last flight: 25 may 2005, from London Gatwick to Dunsfold Aerodrome, Surrey, England.
Aces High Limited bought it for use as a film prop.
The "engines," and "drop tanks," seen on the wings are hollow plywood mock-ups put in place for the james bond movie, Casino Royale. The removal of the engines and other components brought the weight down significantly, but it is still, in fact, a used and abused 747-200.
It has also been featured in the background of Top Gear, and in the forefront when being pulled By a JCB tractor by James May.

Like he said it's not so much about engine power. When I worked for Delta our tugs at work would move fully loaded CRJ 900's and MD88's with ford 300 inline six engines. It's all about grip and the transmissions were geared for max torque.

That's the 747 used in Casino Royale, made obvious by the fact that the engines are together on this model and on other models, they are seperated. Also, this was filmed at the Top Gear test track as that is where the plane is now.
VW Touareg Towing a 747 Jumbo Jet flying the other way
Amazing comment.
If it pulls? And succed? Everyone AND I MEAN EVERY ONE WOULD BUY IT AND FUCK ME VW WILL NEED ANOTHER PRODUCTION RUN BY 100 YEARS IF THEY UPGRADE IT
This is not about overcoming 150 tons, it’s about overcoming the amount of friction the wheels on the 747 have.
So the Touareg pulled this with 700 foot pounds of torque? By that logic, a Bugatti Veyron, with 1,100 foot pounds of torque, should be able to pull Jupiter out of orbit . . .
Considering the most powerful production truck has 2618 foot pounds of torque, by your logic it should be able to speed up the sun's rotation.

From wikipedia:

Among the modifications were the fitting of twin mock-up "B-52 style" engines on each of the inner engine pylons, with the outer ones instead holding mock-up external fuel tanks.

Anyone had this pop as a recommendation after 5 years?
2:32 that's what i was kind of wondering though the fact that a 3500 lb car pulling something that weighs 155 tons would have to have be heavier, after all airport tugs weighs about 50-55 tons and produces 200 hp with massive amounts of torque
8 years old, still very cool.
It will be a new world record if you pulled the antove 225
gfd
+bell teh yes.....
LOYal keyboardcoolkid-co-leader that is true
You mean Antonov AN225, not antove.
I know this comment is a year old, but I got this video in my recommended and need to explain this:
This 747 was not a standard one, it was modified heavily to remove about about 35 metric tons. Since there is so many 747’s in the air (with some being retired today), a 747 can be easily ordered and modified for movies and such. The Antonov AN225 is a plane that requires an insane amount of force, greater than the one that the AN225 is making to pull it. Even then, there is only 1 AN225 in the air today, with another being half-built, than scrapped. Also, the Antonov weighs much more than a Boeing 747, due to sextuple engines, multiple landing gear wheels, a large fuselage, etc,.
TL:DR
It would be really hard and pretty insane to do, with many factors. Maybe in the future.
He's like an alternate universe James May.
for anyone who is wondering this is why the engines are mounted in pods on this particular 747 model.
"After retirement, it was modified to be used as a prop in the James Bond movie Casino Royale[2] and was painted with a fictional Hollywood registration, N88892, used also on a Boeing 727 in the movie Hero.[3] In the movie, it appears as the "Skyfleet S570" a fictional prototype aeroplane which terrorists attempt to destroy. Among the modifications were the fitting of twin mock-up "B-52 style" engines on each of the inner engine pylons, with the outer ones instead holding mock-up external fuel tanks.
After Casino Royale, G-BDXJ appeared in aVolkswagen commercial that shows it being towed by a Volkswagen Touareg.[4] This stunt was also featured on the television programme Fifth Gear with presenter Tom Ford driving the Touareg."
-wikipedia
the actual mass you're towing is not an issue, as long as the friction between the mass and the ground is low enough. it is the friction that the torque of the engine is working against. if there was zero friction, you'd be able to pull the plane with one arm.
for example, a tugboat can pull or push a container ship weighing 100,000 tons.
also there are dozens of airplane tugs at any large airport, there's nothing special about it.
guguigugu that is completely inaccurate. The torque is not fighting the friction alone. It is also having to contend with inertia. Friction adds to the problem and reducing the coefficient of friction to zero would help quite a bit but you are still having to get 155 tonnes to start moving. Anyone that could start a 747 moving with one arm would have superhuman strength, friction or no friction.
Without friction you'd just need enough time. Then you could pull it with a single hair

If I see that on a highway at the speed limit, then I will be impressed.
thats the old top gear place. thats at dunsford aerodrome. in the background there is a aircraft hanger next to a small building which is were the main studio is or was.
That Boeing 747 is a special because it has the two engines on either side next to each outher. For say the Boeing 747-400 the later series has Engine no 1 on the outside of the wing but this one has them together so this version is much lighter
I was wondering about this. This is the only time I've seen this engine configuration on a 747. 155 tons is nothing to scoff at, but considering the size of the aircraft, it's amazing. Question, though - why would this version be much lighter? Same number of engines, seems like the only difference would be the extra pylons for the nacelle placement. Shouldn't be much heavier, right? Weight distribution might be different, but I wouldn't imagine that much else would change?
To be fair (albeit very late here & you probably know by know), this was the 747-200 modified for Casino Royale. Very weird plame IMO

Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear used a JCB Fasttrack Tractor to pull their own Jet
It's great, at least they tried and succeed and I can not recall that they say only a VW can do that, it was a test for the VW, sure any similar 4x4 will do this. A good test will be to keep on towing until the clutch start slip or something break and see which 4x4 last the longest
Is it use me or does that look like the 747 from the Top Gear test track, as well as the background.
Whith the right transmission you can do this whith a Fiat Panda

Fun fact: that same B747 (registered G-BDXJ) was featured in the bong movie Casino Royale as the Skyfleet S570. Originally the incoming airbus a380 was supposed to be used, but they resorted to this modified B747-200 due to production delays.

This may seem amazing until you find out what the engines are in the airport tugs that move these aircraft at airports. The ones made by Douglas had the Ford 1.8 Mondeo Turbo Diesel engine. It's all about the gearing.
To be fair though, most of those tugs actually have 2 engines and yea, they have massive torque because they sacrifice high speed. They probably have a top speed of 40-50 km/h or something.
@@manu144x The ones I saw in production only had a single engine and no they don't do 40-50km/h more like 20km/h. Except for the special one they built for a James Bond film, but then that one would not pull a 747

LCdrDerrick Jeremy doesn’t know how to drive a tractor either. I’d like to give it a go in my own tractor
Because he put it in low range.

I can see why i would give a shit... Oh yeah missiles!
It was originally a 747-200 but it was then modified for the James Bond casino royale movie. Look up G-BDXJ
+Blake Wilson Is she airworthy with these engine pods?
+Michael Flatman Wikipedia says the engines and fuel tanks (missiles) are mock-ups. No reason it couldn't work that way. 747s are often used to test new jet engines because they fly very well on 3 engines and the new engine can replace one of the 2 inner normal engines.
It is a concept airplane and used to be a 200 series but now the are using it to test out new engines btw the supposed "engines" had no engine inside it was just the shell and also the plane was completely empty it was just the shell. A normal 747 is 180 tonnes not 155 all of this information is coming from a 747 pilots son and I was informed of this information by my father
Because it has wheels, it will move... Like when you can pull or push a heavy suv...it has wheels but weight still slows it down quite a lot
That is the exact same 747 Clarkson pulled in the top gear tractor challenge as this was filmed at the TG test track
PLOT TWIST: 747 WAS PUSHING THE TOUAREG
The Touareg Engine is quite low in torque compared to the Audi Q7 V12 Diesel
you have to love the tow rag
This is where porsche said hold my beer............ lmaooo
any truck could do this even a F150
Tipical american
Boris Racer Typical, not "tipical". Typical American pickup truck can do this.
No an F-150 can't.
The thing that Germans do when they make a diesel, they add loads of torque. The High torque count is what is pulling the plan.
innFahr Two I facepalmed. It's not "The Germans" who add "loads of torrque", it's the principle of Diesel engines, to have amazing torque. You can check any diesel engine, no matter if German, American, Japanese, French or even Chinese, they will have a good torque figure by default. You're the typical "German engineering is best" guy who doesn't actually know much about cars. This hasn't got to do with torque as much as it has to do with appropriate gearing.
Armin K
Should I face palm as well? No I can never do something so childish as that.
Armin sir, you have jumped the gun.
Yes, the principle of diesel is that it does have more torque than a petrol engine. However if you were to closely examine the foot pound ratings, you will see that comparatively, the Germans tend to have higher ratings, not only in diesel engines put in petrol engines as well.
Moreover Mr. Armin K, I am not even German.
With the wheels there is very little friction. So if you apply a force, it will accelerate the plane. What you need is a very low gear box so it all acts gently.
On the extreme, you can try in a port. If there is no wind or cross-current, and you push with your own weight a boat, even a very large one, it will move in the end.
So here, it's fun, but it doesn't show much.

this video actualy costed more than the vw toareg itself :-))))))
Wot
and this looks like the top gear test track you trying to burn the studio down again naughty naughty
You don’t need too much power to tow. You need weight and a shorter gearbox. Except when you need to go fast. If you tow fast the power required increases but it depends on the rolling resistance of the towed vehicle.
747 say is loaded and is 400t (in the test it was empty 155t)
Rolling resistance is like 0.005*400=2tons.
For the 155t the Rolling resistance is 780kg only.
The touareg weights 2.5 so it is close to the limit (tire coef. 0.6-0.8) for the maximum weight of the 787. But I see there is more weight on the rear axle of the touareg so it probably has enough grip for more than 2 tons of pulling force (kgForce or tForce can be used instead of Newtons)
At 60mph power required is 520kW
40mph needs 340kW
20mph needs 180kW
10mph needs 88kW
So for a 10mph towing speed a 150Hp engine should be able to do it
5kph is pathetic any car can do that, but it needs a very short gearbox
This Touareg is powerful no doubt but it doesn’t demonstrate anything here honestly
arent they more than 155 ton? that doesnt seem like very much for the size of it
+A Cat the plane you see is just a shell and has no inside and the engine pods have no engine inside just the pod p.s. Love the name LoL
+TheHitchslap That's the 747 in the background at the Top Gear test track. It was an old 74 that was then stripped and used for a prop in a james bond movie.

U know,I think this is nothing special for one good reason : airplanes has been tow all around airfeilds that all around the world EVERY SINGLE DAY by tugs.

wait, I've got to ask, and you'd probably might not know this, but....

Any modern diesel truck could absolutely pull this if it had traction.
What about a 747 with at maximum takeoff weight? A standard 747 doesn't have extra fuel tanks at the end of it's wing so maybe you could make use of that?

@@Nikola_W211 Lmao grow up and educate yourself about cars
@@Nikola_W211 Says someone who doesn't know anything about me except my statement about VW, which is an overpriced and unreliable car... You are probably 14 years old... So when you grow up and step into adult world, you are not going to buy German junk because you will appreciate your hard earned money. I'm also a professional mechanic, guess which cars break down most of the time? German ones... Son, you've got a lot of growing up to do.
@@Nikola_W211 Lot of growing up you have to do, little man...
Sponsored by VW with a "wrong" 747
Fabianwrc proof ?
What would be the smallest car that is possible to pull a Boeing 747? An old Fiat 500, Mini, Hillman Imp, Morris Minor, Renault 4, Reliant Robin, Citroen 2CV?
Can someone explain to me why this 747 has the engines merged into that one thing there intead of them being seperate, like i thought they always were?
If don't find that impressive, because if a man can pull a heavier plane, probably even a smart could pull that 747 with ease... This is just some stupid pub
well to be honest this is nothing special.. commercial planes are disigned to be pulled easily and also, google Kevin Fast, he pulled CC-177 Globemaster III which is 35 tonnes heavier then 747
Odd fact - the Wright Brothers' first powered flight was only just over half the length of this 747!
“Mom can we have a Boeing 747?”
“No we have a Boeing 747 at home”
747 at home:
