Bowler Wildcat / Nemesis

[EJ25RUN]

The Bowler Wildcat is an off-road vehicle originally made by Bowler Off Road, based on the Land Rover Defender. The Wildcat has been entered in various off-road races, most notably the Dakar Rally.

Like the Bowler Wildcat that preceded it, the Nemesis has a tubular steel spaceframe construction that incorporates a roll cage as an integral part of the frame structure. The spaceframe and roll cage are approved by the Motor Sports Association for racing. Unlike the Wildcat, the Nemesis features a fully independent suspension design.

Bowler will offer the Nemesis with 4.4 or 4.0 liter displacement naturally aspirated V-8 or a 4.2 liter displacement supercharged V-8. A six speed manual transmission is fitted as standard with the option of a dog engagement racing transmission. The vehicle features a 60/40 [torque split]] limited slip center differential with over-lock and limited slip front and rear differentials.

Body panels are made of a composite material called Twin-tex with some carbon fiber pieces in areas where higher strength is required.

The Nemesis has a 415 litre capacity racing fuel cell to allow the vehicle to run the longest Dakar Rally stages

Some really good ones ~ not all are on youtube right now cause of the bbc but they'll make the rounds

1. boys take trip to America
~ buy $1000 to prove you can do better than doing a rental car cause you can sell the car afterwerds ~ this episode won them an award for "best non scripted show"

2. boys take trip to africa to prove you dont need awd to cross country

3. race: ferrari 612 vs plane to the alps

theres hundreds, season 11 starts during the spring and the best time to catch each episode is two days after cause thats when youtube gets full of them!
