It's basically like a DIY Ariel nomad. Especially with the orange accents it looks great
Not as good as James May Caterham
Hard no on that one.
@@dancearoundtheworld5360 but for 500th of the price can you complain 🤷
Was literally typing that when I saw this comment 😂
Ha ha, I forgot about the nomad, loved that car when playing Forza 😎👍
The fact that Alex says "transition" but the editor doesn't transition really cracks me up.
At what time?
the editor is Jack Alex and Ethan they all do some of it
@@SL-ht1nu Yes!

There's a hill climb for 2wd cars every first Sunday in February, in Dursley, monster of a hill and always some mad cars. Very few make it up, this thing would be great at it.
Here it is czcams.com/video/fme1mnPuinM/video.html
That would be nice. Sadely, this channel mostly does TikTok-styled brain-dead videos for the masses. The days of old proper car enthusiast Car Throttle are gone. It is all about the views now, and you can only get millions of views with brain-dead videos.
@@DashCamSerbia Lol, calm the fuck down. Their content is entertaining for both car enthusiasts as well as modification enthusiasts.
@@DashCamSerbia imagine making content that earns them money the sheer audacity to try and make money in your job.
Great build, paint balling didn't make sense and the car looked under powered
I was gonna say this is one of the best builds you’ve done, but I think the credit should go to Bruno!
You mean the car or the mechanic? 🤪
@@mohamedabadila what?
@@j0wt0ng The car was named after the mechanic BRUNO
Wordplay at its best
I meant the Mechanic Bruno for fabricating that brilliant framework for BRUNO the MR2.
Alex: Bruno, can you guess what we've named our mr2?
Bruno: Mr2.
Bruno absolutely not giving a shit there 😂😭
Alex: Look how heavy these wheels and tyres are!!!
Also Alex: *Mounts a spare wheel to to the roof*
The Myogi Night Kids hoodie, what a legend ! Good man.
"Its probably worth a bit more now" , yep it's scrap weight has almost doubled 🤣
All that time and effort. What a waste. 😂
@@Retrobeemer They should try to get it street-legal again, then it would be worth quite a lot.
Lovely how good it sounds when you give it the beans
Ah, a fellow Donut Media fan? 😆
@@KadenBarriga LIGHTNING LIGHTNING LIGHTNING!!
Donut fan!!
@@kyleplatasilver A MO POWAH BAYBEH
Obnoxious just like half donut cast...
Bring back the trade up series!!
That only works if you con someone at every trade up!
No way Alex is selling his Porsche.
it was an autotrader series that's why it ended
@@chrishart8548 Not really. As long as both buyer and seller are happy and got what they wanted I wouldn't call it a con. Also there are cars that are cheaper in different regions, so you could let's say buy an SUV in London, fix it up, make it look great, then drive it up to Scotland and sell it there for a profit (if SUV are cheap in London and more expensive in Scotland, that is, both was just an example).
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo used to buy cheaper cars in Wales than in England.
When the paintball guns came out that’s the first time Bruno properly smiled, he’s been sick of Alex’s shit for the passed couple of weeks and now it’s payback 😂
Guy looks like he'd eat Alex and Jack for a light protein snack before a lift session.
I always felt the two first generations of the MR2 was cooler than the last one - untill now. It was just made to be an off road buggy! Looks amazing!
Same thoughts!
That’s actually a good looking car! Really shocked from the difference, from when you began pulling chunks off it. If only it had an engine twice as big...
Or an added supercharger.
Imagine a modified 2jz get or just stock it would have decent power I guess and a beefed up drive shaft and axle also imagine awd on it or 4wd if a 2jz actually fits in it and you can get one for not alot or you had a big budget because it must of cost abit to do this also add a working boost gauge
@@aaroncable4739 shut up.
@@scotthotchkiss7120 why I'm just saying what I'd do if I built this thats all what have I done wrong
2gr would do fine :)
I love how Ethan stayed far away from paintballs this time 😂
it's garret fault
Yeah tbf i was expecting someone to "accidentally but very accurately" wing him with a few paintballs
Now see how far you can get through that puddle that killed proton & Suzuki got stuck in
Killed the Suzuki too didn’t it?
@@theglowingnugget7999 It got stuck & pulled out I believe it worked after I think
Congratulations on making a modern, heavy, vw beach bug 😂
it's heavier the an old bug with a cast motor. All panels, roof and half the interior out, replaced by a 55kg frame and bigger wheels, I would guess 1080kg max but way more power than a carby bug
@@andy2906 and a vw beachbug /meyer manx is about 1200lbs/550kg. so even if it is twice the power of a 1.6 (60 vs 120).... :D
What a job you guys did on that MR2 well done Bruno 💪💪
It's just a mid engined Aries nomad and that's f-ing awesome
I think you forgot the Nomad is mid engined. So it's a budget Ariel Nomad
@birb i believe the engine is over the rear axle so i think technically it's considered rear engine
@@robinv2758 Nomad is rear engine
We had absolute BLAST gentlemen! Massive pun intended. And you know where we if you wanna shoot the crap out of each other again. 🤙
this thing looks amazing! My only issue with it is the yellow front bumper... Why doesn't it match the rest of the piping??
The sound of that exhaust sweet.... 👏👏
5 dislikes in 18 minutes .... obviously the mr2 owners club in a rage 😡😂
incorrect. I seem to be the only person on the planet to actually own and enjoy the mk3, but think this is pretty cool
@@projectiledysfunction2217 I've got one too and I love it. I also enjoyed the video
I own one love it and love this too. I want to see a turbo on this one though. Currently putting a 2zz in mine.
@@projectiledysfunction2217 I love MK3
Bruno is a legend must have worked so hard on this. Thanks for the laughs.
That’s my cousin putting in the seat 😀 so proud 💞
These 1.8vvti Toyota engines are fantastic! Powerful, revvy and endlessly reliable! It's a true jem of the early 2000s engines! Let's also not forget that this engine was not only used in purpose built sports cars like the MR2 and Celica but also in the big family cars like the Corolla verso and Avensis! It's a very versatile power unit!
Apart from the early 2000s models that burnt oil like crazy. Just pulled mine for doing that problem
@@jakeartis955 I’ve personally never heard of or (thankfully) experienced anything like that in my 2002 Corolla verso (same 1.8 engine) in fact it uses up very little oil. But I might be alone with that. Obviously if I had any mechanical problems with my car I wouldn’t go on about it’s reliability! In fact we’ve owned the car for 6 years now and put nearly 100,000 miles in it and it’s never gone wrong! Had the original clutch in it until recently! It’s a tank!
@@mr.carguy654 So my 01 Spyder was burning at least 5 liters of oil around every 11 days! They fixed the 1zz a little later on its life cycle
W video! Keep up the series boisss
this is one of the best and originals builds on recent youtube tbh
One of the first things I noticed going from an all terrain tyre to a mud tyre was that they somehow splashed water up on the windscreen.
Couldn't imagine that in an open top car with no doors....
This is just so epic, good work guys
If car throttle had to make a Ariel Atom Nomad ripoff...(that thing is awesome!!!)
Love the video keep the great work
When you're so confident in the outcome of the paintball match that you show up in a Myogi Night Kids sweatshirt... Epic! "Right in the armpit!" Lol.
This one of the best build you guys have ever done. Excellent
Do they still have the Mud Type? I'd love to see a contest between that and the MR2.
Think there's a video somewhere were you'll see that the mud type and the RX8 were sold, maybe the CT Extra channel
Edit: Its on Alex' IG
@@jarnovdh03 Ah, that's a shame. Maybe the new owner would be up for it. :D
@@funkymish Think that owner is the same guy who ownes/owned the Swagon, so I think its possible. Would be a fun video!
So I called and wasn't able to get a free exo-skeleton for an MR2. What gives??
Great vid guys❤️
You guys are nuts 😂 love it, great work 👍
Great work 👍🏽
This looks perfect, I hope you are going to keep it and having fun with it, I would wish so for you
It's a modern VW buggy! Really cool, congrats guys and specially to Bruno, showing how amazing are Portuguese
Have to appreciate the work BDS has put into this.. it's mental
Amazing, love how it sounds
Today I'm feeling sad and depressed, this is the only channel i was able to watch now...my energy is so low, but you guys make fun videos, you're like old friends of mine, no matter how i feel I'll be happy to see you :')
Hope you feel better soon!
@@Chateauneufdupape27 Thank you, appreciated :')
Thank you to whoever chooses the music. It is always so good.
Love that you sometimes provide subtitles for Bruno even though he’s speaking English 😂😂
Been waiting all week for this
Bruno did a brilliant job with lots of help from Jack. Short guy... not so much! 🤭 But seriously, awesome work lads. I certainly enjoyed this series and oh how I wish I was there with a paintball gun too! Proper fun!
Mate you guys are sick
I'm always astonished that 100 bucks can get you a (somewhat) drivable car in the UK, especially a MR2
Cage needs extending over the front wheels to the front "bumper" for more rigidity. You could always fit saddle bracket joints so this section can be removed if you need to gain access.
Awesome build, though. It's got me thinking that I need one of these in my life. I wonder if it would work on a Z3 ?? 😜👍
Glad my motors aren't parked in there with him spraying that stuff everywhere... Imagine the amount of over spray LOL !!!
I winced when I saw Bruno doing the painting
@@karlmiller3623 i can tell you guys never used raptor paint... paint is super heavy hence why you have to apply it so close, no cars were harmed :)
@@BDSMotorsport what about the orange for the roll cage 😬
@@richardw1992 That was the same paint only coloured orange..
@@richardw1992 its orange raptor paint not orange paint...look at gun being used... lol
Oh Joy! The weekend starts well :)
I got that same shirt alex, awesome taste mate
This is what we call a great off road car
Insane! I love it!
If anyone in the world enjoyed that paintball battle more than Bruno I suspect it's Ethan
I wish I could find one at that price... Sick build guys!
Amazing job
Crazy transformation
Absolute legends
Yes then lads !!! 💪💪💪
Petition for Alex to keep using it forevaa!!!
This is the one video in which I expected a car wash scene.
Great job, car looks fantastic.
That thing looks so freakin' cool!!!
Thank you Hot Wheels and Bruno for making Car Throttle, Car Throttle again.
Hello Alex, Jack and Ethan, and you can't forget Bruno
Love Bruno... both the car and the man
would love to see this bring to a rally stage
Looks sick!😍
Guy representing the NightKids like a boss. Is he downhill or uphill? :D
Either way, you know he'll be grip racing.
Looks awesome! I’d buy that in Hotwheels form, twice!! 👍
You made an MR2 look great love the look the stance the orange roll bar what a top car
One of the best builds you've done.
How has the BBC not asked you guys to take over the Top Gear, this was a class video!!
Natural Porsche Killer 💯
The new Ariel nomad looks pretty good, great review
Quite the adventure series
Lovely tunes
I have been waiting so long for this 😆
probably the manliest video ive seen on youtube in a while, guys build off-road car, proceed to thrash off-road car around off-road circuit, then shoot at each other from the off road car with paintball guns for apparently no reason whatsoever. Quality.
You know what would be really cool? To have a competition with multiple cars like this going in the mud, shooting paintballs at each other.
I like it the conversion. Should catch on. Smaller rear wheels. But for hot wheels, it's a nice.
What a beast!
Reminds me of James May in the Caterham on The Grand Tour Madagascar Special
Awesome build guys, when will the podcast be back?
This guy. Flexing on Every one whit his Night Kids hoodie
Huge spacers 👌
That's apsoloutly epic 👍👌
Living a dream you guys=)
THIS. WAS. AWESOME.
Alex: Helmets
Also Alex: *T SHIRT*
Alex: buys a cheap car.
Cheap car:sweating
Looks fun 👍
I could use that on the farm, looks like too much fun to not drive it hard over vales and glens.
now do detailing car series with that :)
I love the Night Kids jumper.
Alex (to Jack): "do you wanna have a go?"
_royal mail truck has entered the game_
Ganda Bruno 🇵🇹 nice work everyone!!
Is Bruno really just 20 years old? He looks like he's about to hit 40 lmao
this comment cracked me up
