This is exactly how automaker marketing budgets should be spent. Kudos to everyone involved, drivetribe and hamster included, of course.

I love that they didn’t restore it to show quality. They did just enough to bring it back to life but left all the imperfections that it had earned from its long hard life.

I love how they kept the car's original purpose: to go adventure. I'm really happy with that.

I have so much respect for reviving it the way it was and then going on such an adventure with it. I would gladly watch every second of a dry, boring, 24 1-hour episodes series detailing the restoration.

I love the fact that instead of a museum. It went on a real road trip. Too many of these are restored and hidden away.

Fair play to the guy who restored it but kept it as original as possible it's the way a car like this should be done. It keeps its story alive and as they proved if it's still a bit beaten up and tatty you're not afraid to use it the way it was meant to be used 😊

More tribute videos like this! This feels like an episode right out of the old top gear and grand tour format. Love it.
