What a pleasure watching this episode of Auto Trader on familiar sights in my home country, South Africa. Thanks guys for choosing South Africa for this shoot ❤
That was amazing. This felt like a top gear special honestly, Love this. Makes me happy to see this channel become bigger & bigger & do more extravagant things, Super good job!
These are the next hosts of Top Gear. Assuming, of course, that the BBC gets their collective heads out of their collective 🐴and then gets up off of them.
That was the absolute best thing ive seen on RUclips ever... Were gonna need hour long AT specials now to fill the void in our hearts now the holy trinity is hanging it up. Please do more!
I was stupefied (in a good way) to see this filmed in South Africa just a couple of km's from where I live in Gauteng. And with regard to the content, firstly Alex, you're the GOAT - really rock for your intrepid taking on of Rory lying down ! The G Wagon surprised me with it's prowess. Next time, pit the G Wagon against a Land Cruiser and Defender.
Epic episode guys! Nice to see our beloved home, South Africa, Johannesburg 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 showcased on this channel, again. We have 99 problems, but my goodness, we live in a breathtakingly beautiful country. With the warmest, welcoming, most beautiful people in the world.
What an amazing teamwork and outstanding review taking us through the semi wilderness. The G-Klass is a beast. I enjoyed watching these two making this channel really funny to watch. I don’t know what crossed Rory’s mind to think that Alex is the one they needed. ❤
Amazing! Thank you AutoTrader for sharing this informative video. Now I need two of those vehicles right away! Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea.
I remember when Richard Hammond drove The Orange Marauder vs The Hummer [H3] haha and it is funny before you can get that MBOMBE they will thoroughly make sure to do a background check on you before you can purchase the Marauder haha
The reason why the G-wagen managed to pull the plane is that to overcome the friction and rolling coefficient the car need to pull a load of about 3 tonne which the G wagen is more then capable. So although it looks impressive, the situation would have changed if the plane would have the wheels locked. So hands up for who did the cals for this to work hence the choice of the plane to be towed.😊
A mix of car reviews and short review like films like this, yeah kinda what top gear did, is what not really anyone does. I think Rory and the 2 Alexes have a good chemistry and this format would work well and I’m sure it will bring many viewers to the Chanel.
Ah, my original home. Mbombe. The Casper has a contender. I think you guys gave it a good product test. Improvements needed: 1. Faster back door for those hostile situations. 2. Keep the darn doors closed! 14 tonnes! That's epic. Fuel guzzling? Yes.
Good day ! CONGRATULATIONS great video , HERE IS SOME INFORMATION : According to an announcement by the UAE government, the initial contract is for four of the Mbombe 4 vehicles, at a total cost of $2.7 million. SO $675,000 USD dollars each of this Mbombe 4 . Is it worth safety as life of 10 people ABSOLUTELY YES !!!!
Awesome episode and I feel like if the Mbombe had 360 cameras than it would be truely unstoppable. AS a fellow South African I say mi casa es su casa❤🌍
Dude goes "Don't try this at home" and I'm sitting in my pajamas in my house thinking "ok I won't pull my plane using my 14 ton military SUV at my home"
Dude..last i checked i don’t have a G 63 an MBOMBE and an abandoned plane at home to literally try this at home..😂😂 That was hilarious though 22.25 Loved the video mate❤❤
22:25 "Don't Ever Try This At Home!" How Can We? We Have Neither Of Them! 😂😂
In fairness, rich children of Russian oligarchs could probably set this up
bruh come to INDIA u will get the better one
It is a must for me to try it at home
Fr lol
How do you know we don’t own a g wagon?
What a pleasure watching this episode of Auto Trader on familiar sights in my home country, South Africa. Thanks guys for choosing South Africa for this shoot ❤
I looked at the other car and name and I was like this is definitely built in SA
I’ve been telling all my friends Rory waved back at me 🙋🏾♂️ while filming at Gerotek , I’m happy to finally see the this film.
Anyone notice Mbombe steering wheel looking like it’s loose
Looks like it’s about to fall off
I think the wheel isn't flat so it looks wobbly when it rotates
Yep.
I think it was bent by a previous journalist hitting a boulder. I don't think it is feature. Maybe a Tesla yoke 3.0 made where Elon was born?;)
Face not perpendicular to shaft resulting in tilting on rotation
Love to see this happening right on my home ground, South Africa 🇿🇦
Very top gear-y, can’t go wrong with these type of videos
If it's top geary, they are headed in the wrong direction. There's a reason top gear died.
@@Resist_Oppression the top gear was dead after the trio left the show
Yep
Hollywood and Disney make films so what’s your point?😂
At least its better than the current top gear
That steering wheel of the MBOMBE moves all over the place so much! Great video!
I thought it may just fall off.
@@ravim111I also thought that the steering wheel was not screwed on and would remain in my hands 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
❤❤😅
That's military grade for ya
That was amazing. This felt like a top gear special honestly, Love this. Makes me happy to see this channel become bigger & bigger & do more extravagant things, Super good job!
These are the next hosts of Top Gear.
Assuming, of course, that the BBC gets their collective heads out of their collective 🐴and then gets up off of them.
pretty sure they even borrowed a couple of the classic topgear lines for their script
😅Jaan ñc 🎉@@blairbrown4812
Gives me goosebumps to see one of the greatest episodes of Autotrader was shot in 🇿🇦 SA 🇿🇦
Please do more videos like this! This is reminding me of Top Gear specials, competitions and more.
Also, the two of you are a perfect couple of hosts
About an hour long episodes and hour n half specials with part 1 n part 2 would be sensational 👌🏾
There are surely hundreds of G-wagon’s in joburg alone yet I don’t think we knew it could tow a plane! Loved this episode😂🤞🏽✨🇿🇦
That was the absolute best thing ive seen on RUclips ever... Were gonna need hour long AT specials now to fill the void in our hearts now the holy trinity is hanging it up. Please do more!
As a South African I still want the Marauder
I have new found respect for what the G wagon can do, what a machine!
It's a shame that 99% of them will never do any of those things.
Yeah, was pretty amazing when he pulled the plain... and even pushed the Mbombe :D
@@RobertLeBlancPhoto good more good condition ones on the used market
Just watching whistlindiesels video on him tearing one apart by making it do dumb things you realize how bloody epic those cars actually are.
😂 Reminds me of Richard Hammond reviewing the "marauder "military vehicle in SA
I really, really miss that...
It's the same company that does the Marauder in fact!
Forget the tank, Rory's shirt is epic!!!
they have gone "above and beyond" for this 100%. By the way that's land rover's phrase lol. Absolutely love the video!!
The Kalyani M4, a licensed produced version of the Paramount Group's Mbombe 4 built for the Indian Army costs around $875,000/£670,000.
Buying a car worth 130K for 15K cuz it's used ain't making sense to me. Ngl, this 2:50 is crazy!
It's a pleasure to Rory in my home country South Africa 🇿🇦🎉❤❤
Hawaiian shirt and a tank truck, what more could a guy want?
I hope this channel grows to be the new Top Gear
The amount of hugging your partners will have questions. 😂
They're partners
Great to see an episode of one of my favorite car channels being filmed in our country. Good work guys
Auto Trader in my home country South Africa 🇿🇦. Great video as always.
Literally the best vid of auto trader🎉🎉
Felt like one of those old Top Gear episodes
This is one of the best videos this channel has ever made 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Dope video as a proud South African.✨

It's interesting to see Auto Trader UK 🇬🇧 visit our country to film this Interesting video, lorry and Alex. we love you guys
Reminds me of a top gear special, the nostalgia hit hard! This video was fantastic :)
This is one of the best videos I have watched in 2023. I really appreciate you guys. Happy New Year 2024 .
Awesome location and Top Gear inspired shenanigans make this a treat! More of this, RR and Lady Godriver!
Love this two together. They have a great chemistry. Love this type of videos. Keep them comming :-)
They are just perfect.. And their production team is also top tier 👌🏾
Nice to see Autotrader on home turf🇿🇦💪🏼
What an amazing teamwork and outstanding review taking us through the semi wilderness. The G-Klass is a beast. I enjoyed watching these two making this channel really funny to watch. I don’t know what crossed Rory’s mind to think that Alex is the one they needed. ❤
Please Autotrader we need more of these types of videos from alex and rory
Cheers Rory and Alex
Greetings and love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I'm late, but brilliant episode. I love these longer challenge films. Hands down my top 3 car review channel.
when he turns the wheel on the mbombe it looks like it's off axis or out of round
🤣🤣🤣, I agree. It's freaking me out
Just warped.
Amazing! Thank you AutoTrader for sharing this informative video. Now I need two of those vehicles right away! Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea.
Where have these guys been all along?? Just landed on the video while scrolling random yt content...now this is GOAT production bruv 💯
Subscribe 😃
I like Alex's driving skills.❤
I am impress on how Rory transform this channel.🎉
This was loads of fun to watch. Great work you two.
Auto Trader = Replacement Flop Gear :) I’m happy! 2 great presenters with genuine chemistry and enthusiasm! Can’t wait for the next video!
@Throttlehouse is the true Top Gear replacement
This is by far the best off road review episode I've seen this entire year 🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️🌹
I remember when Richard Hammond drove The Orange Marauder vs The Hummer [H3] haha and it is funny before you can get that MBOMBE they will thoroughly make sure to do a background check on you before you can purchase the Marauder haha
The fact that it takes so long to get in and out of the MBOMBE 4, is a major design flaw. You have to able to act quickly in critical situations.
Really awesome video done in South Africa. Love my country
4:25 Are we gonna talk about that steering wheel wobble? 🤣
Probably cause of the steering wheel not being flat
That was definitely a perfect advertisement for the G Wagon, having said that the Mbombe has a weird moving steering wheel.
You guys make a great team.. 👌🏾 Keep it up guys!!!
Funny enough I saw that plane in Lanseria on Sunday when I landed there, now I am watching it. 🕺🏽
This is just refreshing to watch. Thanks, Alex & Rory!
The best one yet 🙌🏿
Outclass production💯 Amazing work, need more videos like these
The reason why the G-wagen managed to pull the plane is that to overcome the friction and rolling coefficient the car need to pull a load of about 3 tonne which the G wagen is more then capable. So although it looks impressive, the situation would have changed if the plane would have the wheels locked. So hands up for who did the cals for this to work hence the choice of the plane to be towed.😊
Who needs The Grand Tour, when we've got Rory and Alex!
Fantastic episode! Great to see AT trying new things. Keep it up!
In the army we had similar vehicle like this one, and it's called Ratel 6X6, 6 cylinder in line.... Was a pleasure to drive off road.
A mix of car reviews and short review like films like this, yeah kinda what top gear did, is what not really anyone does.
I think Rory and the 2 Alexes have a good chemistry and this format would work well and I’m sure it will bring many viewers to the Chanel.
I can tell you guys had fun and Rory I have to say that I love your shirt 😂😂
This was sooooo epic, woooow...what a review🔥👌🇿🇦
This has to be my favourite video from this channel
Pulling a plane and a g- wagon is the craziest think done on the channel, plus in South Africa my home country 🇿🇦😅
Amazing Production quality on this channel.
Brilliant video.. loved it.. really done justice to G-wagon & MBOMBE ❤👍🏻
Ah, my original home.
Mbombe.
The Casper has a contender.
I think you guys gave it a good product test.
Improvements needed:
1. Faster back door for those hostile situations.
2. Keep the darn doors closed!
14 tonnes!
That's epic.
Fuel guzzling? Yes.
Content redefined.... Well done auto trader...
More of these please Autotrader 🙏 and Merry Christmas Rory & Alex 🥳🥳🥳
I love seeing y'all in my country (South Africa)
FYI the Engine actually fell off during a flight on that Nation Wide airline
Best episode ever.
Love this!!! Have always loved Rory’s work anyway. But this channel is just great content!
Wow, I enjoyed this episode. Great job, Autotrader👌. keep up the good work 👏👏👏.
Great review and welcome once again to SA
This is my very 1st time am coming across yours channel and this makes me a HUGE fun of your channel.
😂😂😂we can't try this at home we got no mbombe's and recked planes parked at our homes 😂😂😂😂😂 u just made my day with that statement
Good day ! CONGRATULATIONS great video , HERE IS SOME INFORMATION : According to an announcement by the UAE government, the initial contract is for four of the Mbombe 4 vehicles, at a total cost of $2.7 million. SO $675,000 USD dollars each of this Mbombe 4 . Is it worth safety as life of 10 people ABSOLUTELY YES !!!!
Happy to see onther episode from South Africa
That was absolutely ridiculous!
Thank you 😂 loved it 👌👍
I would like to see that machine go against Russian terrain against the gheo rescue or the sherpp or the aton Viking impulse
The R2000+ petrol bill made my heart cry abit 😭😭😂😂💔
Awesome episode and I feel like if the Mbombe had 360 cameras than it would be truely unstoppable. AS a fellow South African I say mi casa es su casa❤🌍
This was great fun, merry Christmas all.
By far the best video i have ever seen on the channel😅
I love the chemistry between you two
The production and direction took many pages from the classic Top Gear playbook with this video, and we're all happy for it.
Loving Rory and Alex content! Quality content.
Amazing episode! Thank you!
Please keep bringing more exciting content like this 👏🏻
very well done guys, enjoyed watching it. I just subscribed to your channel 😁
Great video ❤❤❤❤
The Mbombe 4 is around £500,000. It's also not a car Rory, it's a military truck.
A Happy Christmas to the Incredible Autotrader Team - thanks for a great year of content!
Dude goes "Don't try this at home" and I'm sitting in my pajamas in my house thinking "ok I won't pull my plane using my 14 ton military SUV at my home"
😂😂😂
@@legouixSecret channel found 🤫🤫🤫
(Why is it set to “Made for kids?”
Dude..last i checked i don’t have a G 63 an MBOMBE and an abandoned plane at home to literally try this at home..😂😂
That was hilarious though 22.25
Loved the video mate❤❤
