- Kicking off strong with Series 3 of Fifth Gear Produced in 2003, Quentin Willson and Tiff Needell stage a 60mph head-on collision with two remote-controlled cars, but which one survived the most BMW or Volvo? Tom Ford tries out the new Jaguar XJ while Quentin drives the luxury Rolls Royce Phantom and Vicki gives us a tour drive in Paul McCartney's 1966 Aston Martin!

20 years later The Phantom is a thing of beauty.
I would love to see this test repeated with two Tesla Model Ys hitting each other!
Big fire ball 😁 🔥
@vonsauerkraut Clearly you have been smart enough to write what you think is a clever reply.... Without actually looking at the battery chemistry OR the batteries used in the Tesla Model Y.... Same as your smart reply is OK for two Nissan Leafs or two E-Mustangs.... But since 2022 all major battery manufacturers have been changing to batteries that can be massively impacted with no effect. Try looking up the newest Gold 800v System, that goes from ICE to Furnace to impact & still works... You are out of date and eventually everyone will also learn of the new chemistries. Which of course had to happen as safety with the old batteries wasn't anywhere near good enough.
I'll believe it when they stop spontaneous combusting@@mikadavies660
At the moment minor fender benders are writing them off. Wasteful and unsustainable.
@@vonsauerkraut +💯!!!
@@mikadavies660and clearly you are too brainwashed to be objective about battery fires with teslas 😂
I survived a crash in my Volvo and another one in my SAAB. Both of them were tanks.
And a second big bang was formed😂
Real life safety. Euroncap only test one type of frontal collision, like they do here: Direct frontal 180 deg. with overlap. Volvo and Saab were known to analyze real life accidents, and use that knolege to make safer cars. Most other brands, including Renault, are only interested in the stars from tests like Euroncap.
I miss Saab - good Volvo is still arround, most of the design and development are still done in sweden, despite some chineese ownership.
@@runepedersenDKThe first genuinely safe Volvo was the 850, everything previously was tin. Sorry to burst your bubble
Would love to see modern cars at this
21:21 when crash starts
Thank you
Love this old episode of Fifth Gear too bad there is no new ones
Ok im never over taking again
Thank you for sharing these old episodes. This is the first Fifth Gear episode I watched all those years ago when I was 10 or 11. Haven't seen it since, I remember the XJ road test well and I've since owned an 4.2 XJ, only a dream back then to a 10 year old. Thank you again!
Why did they cut the crash part?
Please Maserati 5000GT vs Lamborghini Espada
Please Lexus LS400 VS Mercedes 500SE W126
Please BMW E9 3,0 CSi Vs Fiat Dino 2.4 Coupé
Please Jaguar XJS V12 vs Mercedes 560 SEC
I’d happily crash in that phantom which is older than the bmw was when this was filmed
Both drove 60mph in opposite direction, so it actually an 120mph collision
In a collision between two cars at 60 mph, the relative velocity is 120 mph. However, the kinetic energy in this scenario is not equivalent to a single car colliding with a stationary object at 120 mph. The dynamics of the collision, the distribution of forces, and other factors come into play.
Hitting a miror at 60mph doesn't double the collision speed.
If you hit a car with the same mass and the same velocity it equivalent to hit a wall.
@@adrienadrien5940 It is not a mirror, but another object with opposite momentum (m times v) which can be expressed with a vector (direction). It definitely has more impact
@@maus3454 nop, from a stand point, let say the point of contact between the two vehicles there is twice the cinetic energy but twice the crumple zone, in terms of acceleration that completely symmetrical therefore in term of force as well. You won't be able to differcenciate a crash between 2 identical vehicles from a crash with 1 vehicle in a mirror
@@maus3454relearn your physics
How wrong the old men of yesterday were ..
This older cars are never safe
The best car in the world because its German rubbish when british
Fifth gear were grown up acting as grown ups.
TogGear were men who looked like they are grown up but the are just grade 8 boys and they acted as grade 8 boys.
Because inside every man there is a grade 8 boy fascinated with cars and enjoys childish humour Tog Gear is still going on even when the name has just flipped from TG to GT it is still the same.
Hammond turned Top Gear into Twat Guy!!!!😊
