Ariel Nomad vs Welsh Mud | Rory Reid's Road Trips | Top Gear

In the second of an online-only series Rory Reid takes the Ariel Nomad for a spin around the muddy roads of Wales. What better surroundings for the Nomad than miles of prime Welsh B-roads draped across mountains, valleys and dams...

Only watching TG today due to Rory, guy's the best, he's not trying to be other people or the old trios, but he is very good at expressing genuine emotion and being himself. Props up for Rory.

"Have you driven one of these before?"
"Yeah, about 2 seconds ago."
Hahaha

This is great. This is the kind of segment that can make the new Top Gear actually "new" and relevant. Doing it for free online is just the icing on the cake. Or a mud pie, in this case!

[TimLewallen]

Loving the new Top Gear. I hope this is an example of what we can expect next season.

New Top Gear is finding its legs. Rory, Chris and Matt are great. You can't replicate the chemistry of CHM (or the cast of Friends, or, for that matter, I Love Lucy). Those kinds of things are rare and unique. But Chris, Matt and Rory love what they are doing and are genuine and vocal about it, and we get to share in their joy. That's, ultimately, what these shows are about...

"Grip is overrated who needs grip" Then slides off the road, well that would've been worth seeing

[johnnyp]

Rory is actually a really good presenter

[andrewb.]

One of my favourite jobs was inspecting the aqueduct that led from Elan Valley. Riding around off-road in a 110 and getting paid

I love watching Rory Reid because his passion in his profession is so clear to see, it warms my heart. He really is living the true spirit of motor journalism.

[KangoV]

First time watching Rory. I'm hooked. This was a blast. That looked so much fun.

[YourMajestyTheKing]

Watching this again to prepare myself for my first CROSS TURISMO winter!!!

[ThinkingSpeck]

Brilliant video.

That bit with the rally driver gunning the Nomad - exhilarating stuff!

[TIMVIX]

I love this segment TopGear! ❤ Please make more of these and Rory Reid is amazing! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[RedEyeDefence]

why can't the hosts of the YouTube channel, host the actual show? they would be so much better

[WalterDrayton]

The Nomad rear gets wishy washy way to easily! It almost takes the fun out of driving it with any passion. You are constantly correcting the spin and drifting!

[pyroslev]

I got to rip a Nomad through the mountains in North Carolina a year back. Only a half hour but it was amazing. One of these, if you have the woodlands, desert and or mud, is biblical.

[DennisBerkhout]

I love these webseries. First Chris Harris who pretty much continued his Youtube channel through online Top Gear, although not on Youtube anymore, and now this. All good stuff. I can't wait to see the new series. And yes, I am saying that as a Clarkson fan.

[MetalMJ]

Brilliant :) Can't wait to see more of these and the new series
