Check out this line-up!
We’ve got our hands on a classic Toyota Land Cruiser from 2002, and it’s about to face off against a GSXR 1000 K2 in a series of off-road challenges!
On the face of it the Land Cruiser should walk it, right? Well, this is no ordinary super bike! It’s had a load of mods added to it so it can tackle this off-road course, including the addition of off-road tyres and armour plating underneath!
So let’s see how the two compare. Starting with the Land Cruiser, it’s powered by a 4.7-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can produce 235hp and 434Nm of torque. It’s equipped with four-wheel drive, and it also has low-range mode and a central locking diff.
As for the bike, it’s naturally a whole lot lighter than the Land Cruiser, weighing only 198kg. It’s still packing a bit of power, mind, being able to put down 140hp.
So can a super bike that was built for the road really compete on an off-road course? Stick around with Mat to see for yourself!

hi
This is not a good innovation content, try homewow or wristwatchwow or maybe jewelerywow
Classic stuff fella's. I think time was bit wrong on hill climb. Anyway Avagud1
Was this bike some kind of strangely horsepower limited example? Normally, they are 160hp...
Yes😊
Guy got some balls and a lot of skill to ride that contraption off-road.
His off road skills were pretty poor but that bike isn't ever going to be good at it
@@mediocreman2ehh? it litteraly just beat a land cruiser offroad. They are regarded as the king of offroad you flannel 😂
@@mediocreman2 Do batter
@@bigduphusaj162 - but if it were on a WR450 or YZ250 - it would also hose the LC.. (equivalents - Enduro or MX from any manufacture will do the same..)
@@bigduphusaj162 flannel 🤣
That land cruiser is never dying 🙏😭
The legacy from Land Cruiser probably gonna last forever.
i would like the money been spent on it in parts in its lifetime... peopel dont seem t orealise that owners arealways having new parts on these and say its still the same engine. yeah the block but it will of had mains and big ends ,possibly head gasket, new fuel pump and probaby a few exhaust systems.... oh and all the suspension rubbers rebuilt and new shockers... they only klast becaise people spend a ton on them.
@@philldownes8685nah bro you are totally wrong. People only do basic maintenance on these things. They sre indeed built like tank. The maintenance and parts on these LCs are way cheaper than a range rover. To drive the same amount of miles in range rover you would have spent 15x the amount you woulda spent on this land cruiser. Dont post these stupid comments unless you have owned the car
INSHALLAH 💘
Take your cringe tiktok emojis elsewhere
Thanks for another amazing day guys, looking forward to the challenge.
Bro you're the best morotbike guy and I like it bro.❤
Did the CBR1000RR can do Carwow Off Road drag race?
You are an amazing guest every time ❤️
This race was true fun to watch.
You are a crazy man! Never change, pls ;)
2 of the toughest Japanese engineering right there
BMW M1000RR to GSX-R 1000: Hold my beer.😅
@@purwantiallan5089The BMW doesn't last that long. It is faster, but 22 years of developement Do that for you. And still, the engine on the BMW blows up after 20000km. And if it's not the engine, it's the gearbox. BMW is overpriced crap.
@@CerberusTenshi BMW motors gives you more juice while it lasts lol
BMW wasn't competitive until a decade after this Gsxr.
@@purwantiallan5089 why are you mentioning bmw when I'm talking about the video 😂.....and since you are mentioning lets see what a 22 year old bmw can do, most of them already should be on the scraps begging for mercy
I am the previous owner😊!!! We got her around 2004 when she had done 30k miles - and we loved every 245k miles we drove in her. Can't say we tested her like you did though!!! She was spotted last week in Battersea just around the corner from where we used to live with 3 car seats in the back. Loved the video and watching her strut her stuff ❤️
Great to know that , really appreciate 💯
We need bikewow now
Bikewow? Well thats absolutely cool, man.😅
+1 YES WE NEED A BIKEWOW
Yes 100% Bikewow
It's called BikeWorld, buddy
I agree
That 2002 Land Cruiser is more reliable than a 2020 Land Rover.
You think 😅
a 2002 land rover is also way more reliable than a 2020 one.
not Land Rovers fault. its the BMW engine and crap on them . BMW is X5 is far worse
@@hassyg4083nah they decided to go to bmw for their V8 engine who are no more reliable than Renault or Peugeot
Facts
The conclusion is that Chris is one hell of a rider!
The 20 sec penalty for getting off the bike is bullshit, he's utilizing the tools available to him when riding a bike
Yeah I thought the same. And the challenge after. Mat did not do it in 4 seconds at all. And the guy timing says bet you won’t do it in that time again. Wonder why. 🤣🤣
@Omie01 yeah, unless they edited it weird it was more like 7 or 8 seconds?
@@Omie01you wouldn't get up there in under 4 seconds if it had been paved?
Completely agree with you. I'm more a car person than a bike one (even though I have both)..but the bike is a "1 wheel drive" and the car is a 4 wheels...20 second penalty is not fair at all!!
@@Omie01he did so cope
First of all the 20 second penalty was bs, second there’s 0 chance in hell that truck made it up the hill in 3.5 seconds. That dudes riding skills are top notch.
It was 3.98 sec almost 4
Graham was quite bias
@@_your_mum_4408 has to get paid
Great video. Shame about the stopwatch malfunction…..3.5 seconds 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤥
more like the Graeme malfunction😂 Dude was matchfixing coz a sportsbike tipped up on his wee wet hill and started dicking on the cars 😂 funny af
😂😂 he definitely did it on purpose
Graham was hating on the bike in the end he was match fixing lol 😆 😂 🤣
the 3 sec up that hill was diabolically wrong
@@bigduphusaj162 Absolutely was!
20 second penalty is crazy 😂
Im impressed how good Chris can handle that 200kg bike! Very impressive to watch!
this era gixxer 1 was 175kg wet mate
imagine if he had a light and nimble 450 dirtbike. i think the bikes faster because he can go around most of the obstacles that the Toyota has to go over.
3.58sec=7
😂
Looking for this comment :D
Loved this challenge but definitely not 3 secs up that hill so clear win for the bike, and huge respect for the riding!
I am thinking the same. That old man with a Timer ⏲️ definitely cheated.
Yea that was not 4 seconds 😂 the bike clearly won it's obvious even with all the editing
Yes. Timer error for sure. Not even remotely close to four seconds unless they edited it intentionally to make it look slower than it was.
Correct... I measured it 3x that at close to 9secs. ROBBED!
@LostDunny2023 likewise, I got 8.56 seconds. However, in the edit process they may have added extra overlapping footage to give the viewer more perspectives of the ascent. Regardless, I think Graham was napping at the start, then realised he needed to start the timer.
One of the most fun races in a long time. I love both the Land Cruiser and bikes. Chris is a legend! Well done!
As someone who has raced MX and done motorcycle trials, I am seriously impressed with Graham's performance on that big heavy road bike. He had narrow bars, a high CoG, and limited grip. I was certain he would fall on the rocks, and certain he would bog down in the deep water. so huge kudos for getting through. One big worry is if the engine had taken in significant water with the revs the engine was doing, there's a good chance it would have seriously damaged the engine. Could it have bent con-rods? Or would it have simply hydraulic'd and locked up? I am not sure, but it would not have been good.
I was worried about his off road credentials, but he smashed that.
@@Harry-TramAnhhe nailed it brilliantly bro.
kzhead.info/sun/eNqFZsN7qnpvY3k/bejne.htmlsi=hxwiIeqVGQn_wEHQ
Graham? You mean Chris?
I assumed they put a filtration sock over the air filter?
I feel like the second last race didn't get timed correctly...
watching the video, there was no way that landcruiser did 3 seconds
@@BajaWes toyota was quicker but not in 3 seconds.
@@worthyladnahh man the bike was quicker
@worthylad looks like 10s for the Toyota but would need a single take camera view to know for sure.
Two Japanese marvels in a single frame. 💪🏻
“If you hold the clutch” Matt: *Grabs Brake*
Chris was a great guest. More of that please 🇬🇧👍
Anyone remember Baron VonGrumble's green lane GSXR...?
Lol yes. He was crying like a little girl. Didn't have knobbies tho if I remember correctly
The green coloured GSX-R 1000 still looked cool tho.
I do remember.
What a genuine bloke Chris is. Should get him on the channel more Mat😂
This is way more entertaining than a full F1 weekend!!!
I have a green 1999 Land Cruiser VX that is almost identical. The differences are that mine is a manual 4.2 diesel and that it has a grey interior and factory chrome accents on the exterior. I bought it brand new in 1999 and I still have it until this present day. Even though I have other newer 4x4's, this is by far my favourite. They also hold their value pretty well. Amazing car overall.
Is it a 105 series with 1HZ engine or 1hd-fte engine?
@@ryannajam8757 100 series 1HD-T.
@@ryannajam8757 100 Series 1HD-T (direct fuel injection).
@@jad7786 oh never knew the 100 series was offered with 1hd-t. Thought it only came with 1hd-fte. Is it the same engine which was offered in the 80 series?
Out of all the supercars and exotics that Matt features, this is probably one of my favorite videos. the happiness is genuine and Chris has such a good composure for being on camera. definitely want to see him more!
With so much laughter, this was more enjoyment than competition. I was shouting at my laptop screen for the bike to make it through the last challenge.
Matt, not sure if you read the comments, but your laughter and true enthusiasm was just what was needed after a rather tiring day at work. Cheers!
Gotta love a mat watson video in the morning to wake up to!
Afternoon in mauritius 😂
On the loo with me coffee fucking spot on
Night in Indonesia
I prefer porn videos but that’s just me
Evening in India
The 2002 Land Cruiser is still a legendary car, 22 years on... We will never forget you, Land Cruiser. 😭
Matt didn't do it in 3 sec, it's 8 seconds too. I did a stop watch too, 3 seconds it's not correct
Old man Graham isn't the best with technology i'm afraid
its the editing
Até Least 7 Sec., never 3 Sec.!! 🤦
@@AsherReid Nah... Even editing, remember the cameras are recording simultaneously so that's out of the picture
@@franciscomiranda9561 exactly..
Do more land cruiser 2002 video drag race, rolling race, everything ❤
3:25 the clutch: Don't forget me.
There's a reason why cruisers a so popular here in australia. That cruiser is a weapon mate!
Chris has got balls of steel!,
These 2 have to be the best combinaation of vehicles one can have.
could we just take a moment to appreciate how skilful Christ was, that's just impressive
Just as impressive on a superbike on a track, phenomenal talent.
Yeah it’s pretty crazy how he turned water into wine 😂
Yes carwow getting better and better Can you guys do more video with motorcycles
"Am I allow to put a rock in that hole?"u sure bro?🤣🤣
I expected the landcruiser to do a lot better than that. And i expected the bike to do a lot worse
they both done amazing the LC litteraly managed not to blow one of its bumpers off when it was bouncing and R1 and Gixxer1 are notoriously good offroad sportsbikes. I remember a vid of Steve Hislop in the very late 90s he done a sketch where he took the salesman out on the back of an R1 at shocking speeds and he went offroad and down a set of stairs.... with a pillion!! I was like "ehhh" 😂
@@bigduphusaj162 i think the landcruiser should have done a bit better in the first test. I've seen old navaras that are falling apart do better than that. Not exaggerating I had no idea R1s and gixxers were good offroad. I'm gonna have to look up some videos. Do you have a link to steve hislop video?
Fair play to Chris, that was some decent riding!
Absolutely crazy! I loved it! I've never seen something like that before!! Great Chris!!! Thanks for the video!
ONE OF THE MOST FUN VIDEOS I HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE. THIS FELT LIKE VINTAGE CARWOW. PURE JOY AND FUN.
We need more of the off road races 🔥🔥
What an amazing show hahaha - bikes are so much fun and that Land Cruiser was such a though competition. Loved it hahah. Chris is legendary as well :D Hope for more from Matt and him!
More of these PLEASE!
Haven't laughed so much in ages! Great work Chris.
Surprisingly effective bike mod- love it!
That Land Cruiser is crazy. What.
The guy got off the bike, did full throttle to 1000cc bike, took it out of rock like cutting a butter. What a control. Cris is hell of a rider.
always great seeing Chris and Mat together - super vid guys!
oh wow he's an amazing rider, that bike is heavy and hard to handle even on a paved road, on that note that Land Cruiser riding like brand new is nothing short of amazing, wish Toyota kept making cars like that still
Props to Chris for risking his life for this great video 👍
Thanks for the New Offroad video i like it!
This was enjoyable.... max fun between the two guys....i enjoyed it!
incredible riding
We definitely need Chris on bikewow channel
really loved this video we need more of this car vs bike challenge off road
Love seeing you two together! So funny seeing Matt's excitement and admiration. Really dind myself laughing with you two. Please do more collabs! There is two much division between bikers and drivers
Carwow is doing side quests at this point
Totally, but side quests are fun!
That Toyota land cruiser is awesome. 🏁
Chris is a legend. I don't know how he did but he did it and in style. Plus his laughter made my day😂
more of these off road videos 👏🏻
The way that the (far from a pristine) LC100 went through all the rough stuff without even breaking a sweat, and with the interior quiet and solid throughout, is just unmatched. What a machine. Just the best in the biz. Even Graham could not resist immediately praising it. p.s. Combined with Mat's horrible offroad driving ability makes it even more impressive too.
250k miles thats unbelievable and if I combine all the 3 cars miles in my family thats sits around 80k 🙆♂️
275771 miles to be precise and yes these LCs are made to last that long
@@ryannajam8757 As long as you replace EVERYTHING at some point.
great content. The channel needs to do more things like this
That was one of the best off road comparos yet on carwow!
I used to and will always love this model of the land cruiser as im in the middle east for almost 15 years ❤❤❤ missing the V8's on the current landcruisers 😢 The bike was pretty neat as well
It's just so much fun to see a few people have such a good and wholesome time together. Oh yeah and the bike doing the last challenge was hilarious.
This was an amazing fun video! Missed the off road videos! 🥳
Theres no way that was 3.58s
Matt actually made the climb in excess of 8 seconds, not 3.58. Equipment malfunction.
I think Matt made the climb of about 10.92.
It's edited clips added together which makes it 8 sec
Yep, Graham really wanted the car to win 😂😂😂😂
Such a nice Video, thanks i always wait for Videos 🤣💪
This was one of the most entertaining episodes. Just so fun to watch!
275,000 miles and still reliable and strong as as bull
How Toyota can make such big engines with such little power is quite a technician marvel.
😂😂😂😂
Like 80s and 90s Americans.
They just don't rev high at all. The transmission shifts at 5000rpm. It barely puts any strain on the motor, that's why they last. They may not make much power, only 235HP, but loads of torque (320lb.ft).
They don't wanna overload the engine. This increases longevity.
Less stress on the engine, makes it last longer.
An off road drag day after a long time , good job Matt
this type of ep`s is soooo fun than the normal drag race glad it came back
BS. 3:58. Took that to get half way up
Should have fit proper mud tires to the Land Cruiser like you did the bike
The bike wouldn't have been anything without those tyres.
That Bridgestone AX41 rear is road legal though and isn't designed for mud or sand
@@RikkyTang not a bad 50/50 tyre though I thought they would have at least gone with a Dunlop D606 I'm currently deciding between a AX41 and the Trailmax mission Raid
Pretty stupid comment. If you were racing like for like as in vehicle type you'd be trying to get a lifted supra around that circuit.
I love this series in general, but this episode was a real masterpiece 😂
What a laugh. Chris has amazing skills, that is tricky on a enduro. Brilliant fun. Best video so far.
You can take 6 more people with you in this Landcruiser Matt along with all of the luggage
No doubt. Wish he should try one on Nissan Primera.
I'd like to see an attempt made off-road six up with a full compliment of luggage though...
Landcruser made to last
This is so far the most impressive I’ve seen from car wow and I’m very much impressed. I like to see another video like this but with the same bike against a Honda cbr 1000rr (any good fireblade bike before the 2018 or the 2021 redesigns or even these are ok). This should be a wicked test. All the best Carwow team.
Why not fit mud terrain tyres on the cruiser as they did on the bike with the off-road tyres then re-run the races. Seems pointless, considering one competitor is handicapped .
He was riding a superbike. If you want to put better tires on the car, then an OFFROAD bike should have been used too, but it would have been less entertaining, which really was the point.
4wd vs 1wd and you’re saying the bike has the advantage?😂
It was just a bit of fun. But if you want a serious comparison, don't cheat the stop watch by 3 or 4 seconds on the hill climb and let the bike go first so the track isn't dug up foe the bike, the bike going 1st would affect the car at all. Or if you want a real comparison, put Chris on a mx bike and Mat with your precious mud tyres.👍😂
@@gregm1460 you just know the 3 second stopwatch guy is the same steward that always says “no Matt you didn’t jump”, when questioned by Matt after jumping the start😂
@@ThatCarGuy1000 😉🤣🤣🤣
Tires make a big difference.
So does having a completely unsuitable chassis Vs one made for off road work...
Great content, as always
Great video, two awesome machines 👍
Have the 1994 Mitsubishi Pajero compete in these off-road challenges.
Why? No way near as good as a cruiser
In the UK a used 2002 Land Cruiser Amazon still sells for an average of 15K £ meanwhile a 2002 Range Rover can be had for as little as 2k £ 🤣🤣🤣🤣. This tells you everything you need to know.
Mr Northover is a legend on 2 wheels. Great vid.
Man I missed offroad challenge videos
The new challenges are superb❤️🔥
thanks so much for the off road video
Mad but entertaining, both were epic.❤
Chris is unbelievable! So funny, ordinary guy! The best youtuber of all areas and channels
Fantastic challenge! Great work.
