This is not top gear, it is Dmax motoring from germany. It pits a VW Kubelwagen against a land rover. Sabine Schmitz is driving the land rover, where some guy is driving this VW. They go back and forth trying to out do each other off road, personally I think the vw does well for it self being small, 2wd, tiny engine, not so much ground clearence... With more of them maybe Germany might have made it to Moscow on time.. But as it was, their heavy trucks and tanks got stuck in Russia's nasty muddy roads.Then winter hit and they all froze to death. They really did not learn much from Napolean.
