A British Champ amphibious utility vehicle is driven in challenging conditions at Farnborough Testing Grounds, in England

A British Austin Champ amphibious four-wheel-drive vehicle (inspired by the American Jeep) is driven over rough terrain and in water at the Farnborough testing grounds in England. The Chanp is seen driving parallel to deep ditches. It is made submersible by connecting a vertical exhaust extension to its water proof engine. A driver, dressed in a waterproof outfit, takes the vehicle down a concrete ramp into a deep trough of water where it is completely submerged. He successfully travels through and up the other side of the trough.
