Two Men Battle Against All Odds To Cold Start A Mighty Mercedes-Benz 407D After 12 Years

There's little more satisfying in life than successfully starting a car after a long period of hibernation. These two men took that to the extreme after successfully reviving a mighty Mercedes-Benz 407D after 12 years out!

I just realised something. Only a car guy can sit and watch two blokes, who don’t even speak the same language as me, try to start an old diesel VAN for a full 17 minutes, without getting bored at the monotony of it.

Yet I can’t watch my mate play Fallout 4 for more than 5 minutes without asking him how he finds it interesting. Don’t get me wrong, the graphics are great, but as far as I can tell, Fallout 4 involves walking around and occasionally killing people. You can’t even drive the cars in it.
