Ford Ranger Raptor v Bowler Bulldog | 4x4s tested off-road and on track | Autocar

Published 20 November 2019. The Ford Ranger Raptor is one of our favourite off-roaders of the moment. We'd say pick-up, but it's not much of a double-cab pick-up these days, because the sturdy leaf springs have been chucked out at the back and the whole chassis redesigned, with coil springs and Fox Motorsport dampers, to create a Baja-style rally car. It's ace. Appropriately, then, we have a Bowler Bulldog, a real-life cross-country rally car to test alongside it. The Bulldog is the product of a small British company with a huge heart and a huge amount of off-road racing experience. This particular Bulldog packs a Range Rover V8 engine making in excess of 540bhp. And with a side-exit exhaust, it is well worth hearing. Join Matt Prior in Wales as we test the Raptor and the Bulldog in as close to their natural habitat as we can. Plus a bit of time in unnatural habitats, with the Bulldog on a race track. Can an off-roader also be a sports car? Stay tuned. New videos are uploaded to Autocar each week. Don't miss a single one. Subscribe now: http://smarturl.it/autocar

Check Out the NEW Aston Martin Valhalla! | FIRST LOOK
  • Published 15th July 2021. This is the new Aston Martin Valhalla, and a first look to check it out! Join me to take a full tour around the hybrid V8 supercar, fully updated from the original concept a few years prior, and now entering production in 2023. Let's go through all of the details! After launching as the AM-RB 003 concept, Valhalla sits in the line-up between the Valkyrie hypercar and future concept Vanquish sportscar, as part of a 3 tier mid-engine strategy. With Valkyrie on the bring of production commencing, Valhalla will start deliveries in Q4 2023 at a price of £600-700,000 with taxes. It's a series-production offering with no specific limited build number, and will be in production for two and a half years in total. For the production spec Valhalla, it mixes a flat plane crank 4.0l TT V8 with two electric motors for a total hybrid output of 950hp; with 750 coming from the combustion engine and 204hp from the electric motors. The numbers are impressive, as is the target Nurburgring Nordschleife lap time of 6:30. Although there's no interior to explore of this model, it will follow from the original concept with a seating position directly in the tub, with heels above hips to give a real racecar feeling. No doubt it will be a special car to drive! Thanks for watching, Tim

Chevron B8 sound on the track - full throttle acceleration
  • This video is about some Chevron B8s I saw at Monza Circuit. The white one I think it's a Chevron B8 Continuation: in fact Chevron offers all the specifications in order to built a "new" Chevron B8. I think that because all the components of the engine seemed to me a bit new and very clean. The others Chevrons you saw are for sure original ones, maybe they have been modified but the chassis is the original one made in the far 1968 -1970.
