British law is fucking weird

Most of the fast driving of the Evo was done by Ben Collins.

Atleast she went out with pride, unlike what its fate was going to be planned for.

So clean

you're a bright one

Yes jeremy has always been a fan off the army he even did a documentary about a Commando Raid in WW2

SGT Norgan And about the PQ17 disaster.

Corey Whitt That's not a bad thing though....well the car getting destroyed is...

One of Jeremy’s relatives actually won a Victoria Cross in WW2

I drive an STi and feel bad about the Evo getting destroyed even if it was a crime car.

I like subies too but feel really bad for that evo

I just watched this episode and cried the whole time. =( What did the Evo do.... it was the drug dealers fault not the car lol.

Aaron Cordeiro I do hope you're talking about cars... :D

I'm a Subaru fanboy who drives a WRX--and I feel bad for that Evo too :(

😂😂😂

and almost ' WASTED '

boi this is 7 stars

I've like doing that while car chasing 😂

This is when you accidentally get too close to the airbase

Shuvam Chhetri yeah boy 700 hundredth like

Offroad armored ice cream truck with a gun on it

With a gun on top, that is.

mine too

+Usama Urfi I'm sad, Vtec Kicked Out

+Usama Urfi Mine is broken into pieces!

Noooo Rip rvo

Mine blew when that EVO got destroyed

@@straightbusta2609 Yes I would know I used to own that exact model car a few years ago, sold it last year for almost double for what I paid.

@@Tomoslb1 damn, I wish my country had lancer Evos, looks like by the time I'm able to leave my country they are all gonna be out of reach classics

@@straightbusta2609 I bought it in 2016 and sold it last year, it had underbody rust issues but the guy who I sold it to didn't care. He was looking for a track car and so he didn't worry since it'll prepped for racing. Kind of cool to see the car I spent a decent amount of money on to get it running perfect now surviving it's final days a race car.

@@Tomoslb1 Well if it's gonna be used as a race car does that mean it's gonna be driven hard? Good then, someone's using it properly then

It was a drug dealer car

Confiscated for dealing in cannabis..... most likely. :'(

*Condom man

@@carlsagan2371 which is a drug

Yes the Evo >:D

>:D

love to see this

I will buy this car soon lel 2fst4u

+MrSwordFish SourCandyIDK there's like 500 Millon more lancer evolutions out there

Source?

@@Donts_blackwell British law. Unlike US, when criminal assets are seized they are to be destroyed rather than sold.

@@System0Error0Message The idea behind this is there is less motivation for the police to seize assets through easily forged crimes for monetary gain.

​@@System0Error0Messagehere in the Philippines....we literally just crush cars with road rollers or excavators.....in cars I mean Porsche 911, Lamborghinis, everything

@@symphinitystugiii3476 waste of money.

nah bruh

rip evo will always be remembered as a hero

it's an illegally moded evo that was used to smuggle contraband. And cars like that are sent to be destroyed either way. They talked about it during the show.

oh, but why even take the evo that criminal way??? =((((

+Dovydas Daunoravicius I love how they destroy cars that have been involved in criminal activity it's like take it to court I sentence you to life hahaha

+HYITHOi know right, what a machine

MR-MONTY yeah! pretty cool stuff

HYITHO the army really does have everything coverd, EVERYTHING

+MR-MONTY there was even an experimental Russian tank that was supposed to be capable of surviving a nuclear blast and the following fallout to continue fighting

MrSwordFish SourCandyIDK why would you need that all your enemeys would be microwaved

Haha I feel you, but if you ever watch the whole full episode it actually belongs to a drug dealer who got arrested. The court wanted his car to be demolish however Top Gear decide to propose and use it in this event :)

but why does it need to be destroyed in the first place? its not like the evo did anything wrong

No. Killing a dog is worse.

AdventureMinerPro // MCPE no its just the same amount of disappointment

Hanif Purbaya but what was wrong with the evo in the first place

ur missin the point..??? for some1 out there to destroyed a or any beautiful piece of a performance machine just for the hell of it like that ......its very disrespectful to the eyes of a real car enthusiastic ......!!! but i dont expect a guy wit NAMEs like... smileyLEGO to understand......

VAS THUM Just take comfort in the fact that it was one of the proper WRC rally cars.

....???

VAS THUM It could've been one of the WRC Lancer rally cars. Luckily it was just one of those aftermarket jobs. BTW. It meant to say "Just take comfort in the fact that it wasn't one of the proper WRC rally cars."

VAS THUM If someone were to do the same thing with a Morris Marina it wouldn't be ok.

Agree mate! SCREW THOSE RICH ASSHOLES :(

Jared Moore y

Rip Evo :(

@@yapnop2 This car was supposed to be destroyed. It belonged to a drug dealer that illegally acquired the car. But it is painful to watch this anyway.

@@alpenstarss could'nt they had auctioned the car off then

says the black dude

Tyler McClain says the racist dude

That's not racist^

plysqwmack e GalacktGamer ^Stop using the politician's false claimed "racist" definition to win arguments

me too.

Interceptor810 top gear buys most the vehicles it destroys from police auctions of seized criminal assets just like the rest of the bbc.

yeah, the car is now going to waste, sell it and give the money to a childern hospital or something like that, i'dd 4000 pounds that car, but no, just scrap it

+Interceptor810 Yeh true it is very pointless and a waste of a good EVO. Suppose the Judge's argument is that the car was bought with drug money so it has to be destroyed.

oh noooooooo!!!! what did the car do??!!! why the car!!!!!! noooooo

I agree with you 100 %

Aphev It's not for sale, it's likely an impounded car that was used in evidence. Put it this way, it was sentenced to be crushed way before top gear got a hold of it, if anything they did it a favour by driving it for one last time.

It was a drug dealers car the police took it of them because they got it from the money they got from selling drugs

he did say earlier in when he found the condoms that the airbags were disconnected

Or a trojan..

I hope so

+Alex Verbov 2 questions!!! 1. Why? 2. How?

Yes

yuppp

Alex Verbov watch the whole video

Epic!

69th like

EnglandForEver ya to say the truth i didn't, but even though i could have chosen to wreck a normal lancer and keep this one.....

rami9941 just sayin breaks my heart to see cars like that getting smashed

@Ken Norcott he is lmao

Kristjan Hočevar so true 😪

It's not his fault though. The car was on death row, it's owner was an arrested drug dealer, and the thing wasn't street-legal.

Frikgeek Fine, Fine, you are right on that but still ... makes me cry to see such a car resigned to such a sad fate.

niceboy60 It is indeed.

niceboy60 Just watch the whole episode and I won't have to explain shit.

Frikgeek refresh my memory since I haven't seen it in a while, but does it's illegality have something to do with it's engine setup not being street legal? The pop-pop-pop-pop of exhaust is something only race-only Evos make I think ...

IPIZOR cause he opened them. Did u not see the packages in the beginning of the video?

Han Valencia Yes we are and we don't care ! :)

Should give it to me :(

Rule Britannia

Brits they are not scots

The car was owned by a drug dealer and had illegal modifications on it. It was going to be scrapped anyway.

I own a 2016 sti and that evo getting destroyed still made me cringe.

n d

j

I believe the war of the Subaru and Mitsubishi should come to an end! Team against Peugeot

Sweaty 14 year old weab trash saying "fanboy" for no reason in a pointless comment. Nothing but spam.

Sell cocaine like the drug dealer did. Youl be able too afford one in no time ! Just drive it better than whoever was driving this one when the police chase you 😂

Thats what im saying

Good catch !

A car getting destroyed.

Its not fake ITS TOP GEAR

pests like you call The Matrix a movie

poop fliss its not fake its just that everything was planned out beforehand, which is obvious

Yeah, a british clown showing us british army tecnology and a british car... I know mitsubishi is a japan but rally art is british...

How about the fact that the whole roof of that small car was crushed by a giant metal grabber... and Jeremy Clarkson is tall enough that his entire upper half would have been ripped off? And also, how about the common sense fact that the British military is not going to ACTUALLY shoot at a TV personality with live rounds. Even if the rounds were live, they were clearly in on the joke, and had no intention of actually shooting his car- because the obvious result of that is Clarkson (a beloved TV personality) dying in a fireball when those giant rounds hit his tiny Evo's 10 gallon gas tank. Nobody wants that on their hands- not the BBC, or the British military. Duh.

+haskha45 Wah wah. The car was going to be scrapped anyway.

+WhyDidIJustEatThat but why? It's a beautiful car. They could've sold it.

+haskha45 If you think that's heinous, think about all the pieces of confiscated art, priceless guns, literature, old antiques etc that have been sent to scrap because of laws and bureaucracy.

haskha45 the judge ordered the car be crushed.....

ほんとそれ

Funnily enough, the Evo was originally going to go into a trash compactor, but it was given to Top Gear instead.

really hurt

It's a car grow up

No, No , No. Tune it to 500+hp and give sand/gravel tyres. Add some armor and a 50cal Hellcat Tank Machine gun. Do not forget to lift the car

That JDM Logo signifies you're a noob. That's Grassroots. Yellow+ Orange is Experienced driver

A happy Bambi True, this is one of the cringiest videos I've ever watched.

Police were gonna destroy it because it belonged to a high-profile criminal who had nust been out in prison. They let Top Gear and the British Army take that job on.

Godofhel1 Clarkson never had what i would call a beautiful body in the first place 😂

Evo got destroyed? so what, its not a classic

+松浦 ... What?

+Sypadizre he said he likes the evos rear bumper

Kranku Thanks, what language is it, anyway?

+ Sypadizre　jap

whyyyyy

whyyyyyyyyy
