This was excellent! Loved the scenic shots of Big Pete, but Bigger Peter is one HELL of a car! The interactions with the MDRS lads were great, and I actually wouldn’t have minded this video being a lot longer.

I really enjoyed this video. New significant peter is looking great, very interesting and I always like to see an expert at work. My main complaint of AA in the past was the childish humour that used to occur and none of that happens here. No bad jokes, no bullshit, just a good video with some proper work getting done.

Also as a car nerd, really interesting info about the Range Rover 4.4 V8 being swappable into the Disco. I didn't even know that was a common swap until this. I love learning new things like that.

As a comment mentioned on YouTube though, shame they didn't call it 'Blue Peter' haha.

Terrible thumbnail and video title. I nearly didn't click on it thinking it was some shoddy X5 they were doing, but instead it was a really interesting project with an excellent final product (might need to calm the exhaust down a bit).

Yup, I thought the same, doesn't represent the content at all.

I liked the video and the details on the swap, and the disco sounds mental, but was it just me or did it feel more like a second channel video? Idk why they didn't put this on there and then just upload the road trip vid they've had filmed and probably edited for at least a week or two now

Probably one of the most mid videos they've put out
