I unlocked it somewhere in Season 3. So I guess you just have to get more XP to unlock it.

Just unlocked for me. If you're getting certain missions glitch on you, try with a different car. It worked for me, although I did have to do the two drift ones noted above about 15 times each with my new car. :)

I found with the pipe and the boat drift in secton 3 you need to get your speed up. I must have tried 30 or more times and it would not pop up complete. I increased my speed and sure enough 2 tries and it was done. This seemed to work for me. I hope this helps.

I can confirm that for the boat & pipe drift you need speed.
Took me only 1 try for each mission using speed & small angled drifts.

+1 To TerrifiedToast!

I`m still stuck in "Big Cranes"... I was in "Boat Stands" either, but TerrifiedToast's tip worked like a charm. Perfect!
Still trying the last one... Let's see...

Yeah, I was stuck on 'Big Cranes' too. Ended up using the crane closer to the power station even though it doesn't show the red/green donut indicator while you're doing your double donut (took a few attempts going anti-clockwise around the red and white barriers). Thank you for posting these invaluable videos.

Great vids. Some off the missions are definately glitched though. The last one I did was "Stairs". The easiest of the lot. I drove up and down and up and down about 30 times. WTF. Quit out, restarted and popped first time. :-) Thanks for posting. Would have struggled without them.

"Warehouse Spin" - ensure you do this -exactly- as he does in the video i.e. quick spin in centre, smashing through boxes and exiting warehouse. Simply spinning in the centre will get you nothing, you must do the smash also. It took me a long time to figure this out.

yeah its weird...i did some trick maybe 20 times and 20 times the same and suddenly it popped. They are not very clear in the discription. Same with a drift. I did lots of very nice drifts, sometimes close to 90 degrees on the direction of movement. And some other times I just made a corner like you normally would and the tires would screetch a little and it counted as a drift.

The best tip I can give for the Barrel Roll which was pretty simple for me was to get a lot of speed. I started from the far back and went as fast as possible reaching the ramp. It seems you must land on the dirt jump for it to count. You have unlimited flashbacks so use them and go back to the jump. (Not all the way back) What ended up getting me the challenge was to let off the gas right before the jump and hit the middle. This way my car didn't go too far and begin doing a double barrel roll and landing upside down. Hope this helps :)

Thanks for the videos, some of the missions were sometimes a bit buggy (the one under the brick stands under the boat) and some were just funky to find. I find the only really difficult one was the donuts around the crane in the corner. Spent quite a bit of time trying out, and even tried the one near the outside corner of the power station. What I ended up doing is try another one of the cars available for the drifting/gymkhana. Different reactions. Straight away I could feel that there was potential for a relative quick "victory". Was right, took me less than 5 minutes after having changed car.

The Battersea Compound consists of three free roam zones you unlock after completing Seasons 1, 2 and 3. In each of these areas you’re given various tasks to complete (the game calls them missions). There are 80 missions in total. You can check your progress at any time by pressing Start and selecting Missions.

Some drifts are very finicky and you have to hit them at just the right angle and with the right amount of speed. Also, you have to make sure to start all drifts before passing or going under the area it wants you to drift. I’d suggest using the Ford Fiesta Gymkhana 3. Below is a detailed guide on all missions and how to complete them.

Zone 1: Parking Lot
23 Missions

Zone 2: Depot
19 Missions

Zone 3: Power Station
30 Missions

Any Zone
8 Missions

There are 80 total missions to be done within the Battersea. There are a total of 3 zones that you unlock with completion of the seasons in the Dirt Tour. 8 missions are universal and span across all zones, while the others are zone specific. To start a Battersea session, select the pyramid to the left at the dirt tour menu, and you can select the zones that you have unlocked. To unlock zones, complete seasons in the tour. To view the current mission you have available press and select the missions you want to look at.

The Battersea compound is unlocked after you complete season 1. The 2nd and 3rd areas are unlocked when you complete season 2 and 3 respectively. There are 4 groups of missions in the compound, a set for each area and a group of cumulative challenges across all of them. At any time you can pause any time to look through a list of all the challenges.

Battersea Area 1 - Parking Lot:

Area 1 is fairly straightforward. The collectible logos are at the very start of the video so grab those first. The rest should be pretty easy to work out but watch through the video if there are any that you are unsure of. The hardest one for me was the 180 spin. It took quite a few tries to get that one right. Use the big ramp in the middle of the area, build up as much speed as you can and do a handbrake turn just before you launch off the ramp. For a full list of the missions in the order that they appear in the video, refer to the video description.

Battersea Area 2 - The Depot:

Again the collectibles are at the start of the video so go grab those. From the rest of the challenges the only difficult stuff really comes from understanding what a few of them mean. The thread the needle mission for example, the crate you're looking for it in the large wall of crates between the parking lot and depot. The container slide one is a bit misleading, the location is near the parking lot and requires you to drift around a container in that area, near an opening into the main power station building. All of these are in the video. For a full list of the missions in the order that they appear in the video, refer to the video description.

Battersea Area 3 - Power Station:

The third area is the most difficult but again it's mostly just knowing what certain mission are actually asking you to do and then finding out where to do them. Again, the collectibles are right at the start of the video. The Table topper jump is easy to miss, it doesn't look like much of a jump but is up one floor in the middle area, you can see the arrows on the ground showing where it starts and finishes. The stairs are located next to the river over in the depot area, near one of the forklifts. Again, all these are in the video. For a full list of the missions in the order that they appear in the video, refer to the video description.

Battersea All Areas:

There are 8 mission in this category, leave these until the end since you should be close to them after doing everything else, they are fairly straightforward. The parking lot is best for smashing objects as there are a lot of them around, anything like boxes, bits of wood & barrels count and they re-position themselves after you smash them so you can drive round and smash them again.
