This video is now 7 years old so I'm not expecting any response, but I just wanted to say that I've always had an interest in cars, but it was this channel and your wonderful enthusiasm and descriptive commentary that really turned my interest into a passion!
@petermgruhn5 жыл бұрын
What I like about this is Harry makes the car normal. Most Bugatti videos are all "OMG, I hope I wreck the car and kill a thousand people in this unmanageable monster!!!" Harry just drives it around, pokes it through villages, zooms some twisties like he was... driving a car. Good on y', Harry.
@cristtclaros7 жыл бұрын
Bugatti must really like Harry to let him drive a Vitesse for 1000 miles like a regular car! Thats certainly why i like his videos, always using amazing cars and putting then to the test in great adventures!
@bradcarroll37194 жыл бұрын
The M. M. is just the place to show off that car. Almost everyone who is participating is the exact demographic that they want to market to. In my opinion the Vitesse being the mechanical marvel that it is, ends up almost dead last in style, and spirit of the Mille Miglia.

Well, Cristian; this is what it looks like to see a man that put in his time in the trenches and is now reaping the benefits of having well-connected and wealthy friends who want to have ‘the most interesting man in Britain’ show off their cars.

Harry and Tiff, my two favorite presenters. They're the best at describing the actual qualities of a car, instead of rambling on about flappy paddles and boot-space. Harry, if you read this, please invite Tiff on a drive and post it up asap. I'd enjoy it if you both just romped around in a Honda S2000.

An amazing combination of speed, more of that than any other production-car! Ever! And comfort, heaps of that too. And, and a service-interval of 10,000mls!!! Like any ordinary car! Making it utterly fuss-free, unheard of even for a car with half this amount of power. Bauhaus 1930`s design outside, and retro "steam-punk" luxury perfection inside. Quite incredible that those qualities are combined in one car. A phenomenal combination. I very much doubt that any manufacturer will ever do anything like approach that.
