Electric vs V8 hill climb in a Land Rover 

That run in the electric Land Rover made him look like a proper old formula one race driver in the seat of a track race truck, with that giant steering wheel and spacious area.

Literally one second in it! Fabulous.

I've done some sprint hill climbing ... and there's no way I would go up without full belts! Mighty impressive though!

Britpart Land Rover my fav of the day, Eleccy Landy 2nd. The unofficial Times were as follows Britpart land Rover 8:53 - 9:33 = 40secs. The Electric Land Rover 10:31 - 11:11 = 42 secs. You can make up your own minds about the why there was an obvious 2 secs difference as explained at the end of the video 11:41. Great fun!

Damn, Paul looked like he was out on a leisurely sunday pootle - that man can drive - and what a car too. Great episode guys.

I can't choose. I just love that you all had a fabulous day out, enjoying your shared passion for motorsport. Cheers!

That Lagonda!! I want to see more ... Looks evil!.

Talk about fun! Hope the bar had enough for all! Fantastic

wow, imagine a combination of the race chassis and the electric drive train! Amazing video and so glad it popped up in my suggestions at the end of a Fully Charged vid. Great video and lovely cars.

Great video - looking forward to there being more electric cars on the hills.

Hmm, my favourite car of the day would have to be the Landstonmartinaguarhealy(thatwedidn'tsee)errari! I deffo need to attend one of these days.

That was mental 😮😮

No contest if got to take one home it would be your defender or that Michelin one for sure!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL vehicles!!! Thank you for sharing all of them!! Loved the whole episode

The fact that the electric was even put up against the full race LR speaks volumes. Interesting comparison. I’d love to have tried those myself. I’ve been a passenger in Gen2 Hemi Satellite, and a Model S. The S was so much faster since the drive train didn’t need to spool up. It just went.

This is the ultimate sleeper lovely truck 👍

i loved the fact that ritchards landrover made him smile all the way up the hill....😉

Hill climb? OK, I'm a Yank and hill climbing events mean something totally different over here. I would definitely not call any of that "off-road" as "off-road" makes me think of a snorkel for driving through water crossings up to your hood, crawling up rocky hills, etc. And the Rover is certainly capable of all of that. The Lotus and the Jaguars, not so much. With that said, it looked like a fun event to watch - or drive fast in. My first car was a 1963 MG Midget that I had to do an engine swap on which I paid for with my paper route money. I love those British cars, both on display and having a chance to let it rip even for a short bit. The sound of well built and balanced engines was music to my ears. It was audible poetry in motion. Fun. Thanks.

Great Video Richard, was great to meet you at the installer show and cells and systems expo last week, glad you managed to get entry to the battery show.

Can't beat an electric car. They are the best.

Great video, thanks Moggy. Best bit, the Landrover duel :-)

I think I remember seeing this track with an electric car, Lets just just that episode was FIRE

Wonderful - shame we didn't see the Lagonda going up the hill . . .

I was grinning all the way through that. Great stuff.

Of the two, your Land Rover provided the loudest, most sustained screams. And electrical power just has to be better than recycled dinosaur dinners! No racket, stink or pollution, apart from the tyre rubber, and it still looks like a standard Landy. Can you do the same run next year in the 'Lightning Bug', to show how it performs? Thanks Richard. 🙂👍

What an awesome event. Electric holds its own on the scream in fear factor too! Some amazing machines there, thanks for sharing.

You know what’s next, right? A Bowler with ECC high power conversion

Outstanding!!!😀

I've only just noticed there's no seatbelts in your defender? Surely they were standard fit when that left the factory? Edit: looked back at a previous video - lap belts only. Should be easy to upgrade to proper, safer 3 point belts?

Finally got to see your EV Landry go quick. Awesome

Got to be your land rover👍👍👍

If this is what it means _'having way too much fun'_ then we need to see more.

Great fun. Electric is best.

That was FUN !!

Awesome! Had me smiling from start to finish.

Brilliant content Moggie, I could see the terror in Tim’s face! ❤😂

This was a great video, more like this please 👍👍👍👍

Sports saloon is beautiful

Lucas Prince of darkness? Lucas! and you took an EV near it! Brave man! I'd be to scared to take my mobile phone, There! Lucas Prince of darkness!!😠

You need to get that Landy fitted with precautionary brown, wipe-down seats!

Looks like fun!

None of them could compete with the BYD U8 Yangwang , it’s amazing, floats on water and drives side ways 😉🤗😝

Never tire of seeing how quick your Land Rover is. You can actually see just what a blistering launch the thing has... Enjoyed the video and wasn't expecting it to end when it did. Was looking forward to seeing the Logonda and the Aston do you hill, but you must have forgotten you were going to show us those..!! Great videos anyway so we can forgive you I suppose lol Look forward to the next one mate 💯👍

I love this channel, you're so enthused with your craft it makes the channel really entertaining.

Now thats entertainment! Your Landrover was my favorite because I could see myself driving in one, not the racecar.

Fun one!

You do realize that the electric is at a disadvantage. We can hear Tim screaming. In the petrol, all you can see is Tim’s mouth up! I love most of the cars you show!

Imagine if the e power rover had the racing body chassis and suspension parts on it. Love ol gas powered performance vehicle. But e power is the future for customer cars n race cars.

This was a great fun video. Thanks. Looking for to the details of the build off the blue one.

Favorite car. The Lagonda. A thirties gangster car, the perfect vehicle for the film The Untouchables. And you guys are crazy. Can I replace Tim next year?

Great video! Also great chatting to a moggy at the installer show 👌

350hp doesn't sound like much, until one recalls that Land Rover bodies are Aluminium,... and light.

Hands down one of the best Car show out there =0) I always look forward to seeing new videos for you guys!

Hey Richard. Love your work 👍

I just like how slow gas cars seem going up the same hill as your land rover

That MG was beautiful and the E-Type I’ve always liked but for me, the Series 1 Landys get it. As the off-roader racing beast, that was something to watch. But the Landy that still looks like one but has Tesla under the bonnet gets my vote.

All lovely cars and Richards was best

Brilliant 👍😁

0:30....As a retired Bucklenuster I'm glad that Lucas has finally discovered electricity.😂😂

This was not enough video for me. I want to see more of this. I love old cars.

Great! Very ebjoyable video that looks as though you guys had a lot of fun. I think I live in the wrong country.

I would want at least a seat belt if not a complete racing harness in the electric beast.

A brilliant vid, wonderful cars. I have to say that your Tesla Defender was my favourite. But some seat belts would be a very good idea?

Unless there was some video editing the time taken up the hill in the landrover ev seemed to me way faster than the fossil powered race car.

I like a Martin owns an Aston Martin 😊

What a fun episode!! The Tesla Powered Land Rover wins IMHO.

Can't believe you were happy to go up at that speed in an open truck with no cage or belts...

As much as the sounds of a gas engine are bone rattling, I love the pure quiet power of an electric!

Being an old gear head I like the ICE engines, but yours is my favorite. A real sleeper-fast and quiet. Just imagine if you put some suspension and better tires on that thing and removed some of the unnecessary weight. thx Bill Compton

Favorite car of the day? YES!!!! 😁

Fab episode!!!!!

Great video, Brits having fun.

Fantastic fun! Will be interesting to see what you can do with the racing VW. Jim Bell (Australia)

What’s with the seats and no seat harness in the electric LR? Love this video

Definitely the land rover!

Very cool. But why are they driving on a bike path?

if put Paul behind the wheel of the defender would been cool test of defender

what times?

poor Tim ! LOL

Why does your LR lifts the left front and sinks the rear right on hard acceleration?

First res car I like sound really nice

Poor Tim, that’s all I can say 🤣

I’ll have one of each please.

I Bet Buffy would beat the V8 Landrover up that hill ...

Now combine the two and see how fast it is. Full blown electric race Land Rover.

The Britpart Landrover was best, sounded best also. I hate motor whine, don't tell my son who has a tesla Y model. p.s. What's Tim's job apart from filming?

I love that lightning power Landy, but I can’t believe you’re racing it with only lap belts. If it’s faster than a mid-mounted tubular chassis race car down the straight, you should really be running with at least a 5 point harness. You don’t want your/your passenger’s heads/arms/legs flailing out of the vehicle during a roll over accident. 😳

would love to have known the times .

Lucas, the prince of darkness

Great video lads how warm does the controller & Batteries get when you hammer it

Call the notes 😂

He needs to be sourcing front brake dust plates for my Freelander not out enjoying himself. Brit Parts needs to up it's game.

Now that was fun! But what happened to the Lagonda run?

ผมชอบรถอีวี100%คับแต่รถโบรานนะ

No seatbelts in the Watt Rover?

Seat belts feel safer 💪

Are the actual times published anywhere?

Hello mate

Why tf the sequential gearbox on the V8 is the other way round?

What were the times?
