So here are a couple of clips from the Russian version of Top Gear, they have done a little piece on testing the so called toughest vehicle Russia has ever produced, yup that’s right , its the Gaz 66, our beloved Truck the World Gorki.

The Russian Top Gear Team, test the truck through a series of brutal processes, first they drop a mid size family car onto the Gaz from 12 metres, then knock it around with a wrecking ball, finishing it off by hitting it with a flame thrower and then submerging it in a cold Russian river. Will the mighty Gaz survive the tortuous tests? Will it still start and be able to be driven?

The clips are well worth a look, giving you a look at the Gaz in its native homeland, the clips have subtitles too, so you can enjoy the dry Russian humour while you watch.
