I see Fredies bus has a front diff so must at one time have been a four wheel drive.

That Mustang is bouncing on tarmac roads like an Austin 1100 hydrolastic. Must have knackered shocks.

What the hell is this??

Faux male aggression while trashing a couple of classic cars. Embarrassing.
Where's the actual content.

Beefy skid plates on the 106. Although the front one managed to disappear between turning the car over and removing the roll bar. Rear ones still visible though.

Warning: As fake as Katie Price's knockers.

They would all have been ‘massaged’ for the conditions.

Reminds me of the test drive I had in a 106 Rallye when it was new.

What are the headlights on the big bus from? I recognise but can't place them.

90s Ford commercial something?

160K miles on the 106 and not a great history so not all bad

But £3.5k for the 106 seems strong money.

Aye this should be no surprise to anyone but I really think these specials miss a huge opportunity to spend 15-20mins of the show explaining how the vehicles are modified to survive these trips. Preferably without the stupid a-team montage.

Taking a 106 across Nepal could be genuinely interesting but this is just background noise at best.
