Driving To The UK's HIGHEST Road!
Рет қаралды 96,164
3 жыл бұрынI take the Jaguar F-Type R to the UK's Highest Road, Cairnwell Pass in Scotland. It was a 4am start, but well worth it, as this was also where Top Gear filmed the original F-Type review with Jeremy Clarkson.
The Cairnwell Pass (Scottish Gaelic: Càrn a' Bhailg) is a mountain pass on the A93 road between Glen Shee, Perthshire, and Braemar, Aberdeenshire, in the Scottish Highlands. The border between the two counties crosses the summit of the pass. With a summit altitude of 670 m (2199 ft), the Cairnwell Pass is the highest main road in the United Kingdom, and at the summit is the Glenshee Ski Centre, Scotland's largest and oldest ski centre. Historically, the pass was a drover's route from the Lowlands to the Highlands. The road is often blocked by snow in the winter, with snow gates at Braemar, at the summit (south of the Ski Centre), and at the Spittal of Glenshee.
Check out the original Top Gear review on this road:

I live in that area and drive that road regularly. About 20 years ago I was driving home from Edinburgh in my Fiat Coupe 20 Valve Turbo, enjoying a test of speed with a motorbike. I crested the peak of the hill in front, and as we passed the ski centre had to slow down for several vehicles that pulled out from the left. The bike cheekily scooted past and I went to follow, only to have the rearmost of the other vehicles swerve into my path as I tried to overtake. The air turned sprint blue to match the car as I lay on the brakes. I then noticed the passenger of that car, a black Discovery, looking directly at me while talking on a handset, the array of non standard aerials and the cars in front of it. That black Discovery, a black Range Rover, a little green Series 1 Landrover , a black Range Rover and a black Discovery in the lead. They drove at 35 - 40 for the next 30 miles , not letting anyone overtake, until they turned into the right, where the driver of the Series 1 , a little old lady in a headscarf, has a wee holiday home.

@alexanderbaylis716 3 жыл бұрын
I don’t often post comments on videos, however, I felt compelled to this time. I have been a fan of Sam’s vlog since he collected his first Jaguar F-Type R (about 5 years now), it’s how I learnt that KZfaq was more than videos of ‘funny animals’ and ‘how to guides’. Since then I’ve followed Sam’s journey in different cars, countries and adventures. From the 540c, to taking a Carrera T around the work. I don’t think I’ve missed much. Sam always produces great content, his production is fantastic. However, this video is one of his best. Sam is always engaging but the footage and passion in this video was another level. One for the greatest hits. Thank you. I also want to talk about the Jaguar, a car I wanted and lusted for, for years and it’s why I started watching Sam in the first place, I wanted to see his adventures and how he got on with the car. I would go to Goodwood and find the Jaguar stand just talk about the R and SVR, I gave my details and after a number of attempts at trying to get a test drive of an SVR or an R, it wasn’t to be. Sadly my local Jaguar dealers never come back to me. Eventually I decided to speak with a dealer who was further away and I drove a Jaguar E-Pace 240 and an F-F-Type 300. Knowing that if I liked them both of them I could take my money and buy a used SVR (I had a pretty reasonable budget of 80k). I loved the F-Type, it is British, it sounds bonkers and it looks cool. I drove both cars and the gear change was awful, it lacked urgency, it was soft and delayed. No kick in the back, it seemed that the fly by wire delayed or held the gear change. After an hours drive car didn’t give me the fizz I wanted, which was a shame as everything else was amazing. I asked if the gear box was the same in the V8’s, hoping that it was different, I was told it was the same. It wasn’t meant to be. I love seeing Sam enjoy the F-Type and it makes me think what could have been. It is still a car I love but the one that got away. Finally, to say, great content Sam and the production was amazing. I can’t wait to see what you do next. Thank you.

Being inspired by Top Gear's F-Type video too and to have done this road on a V6 F-Type few summers ago I can only confirm how great this road is. Thanks a lot for this kind of content Sam. Such a special place for drivers and your F-Type fits so well in that special place. Can't wait to come back to Scotland with a proper british car too. Hope to see more content like this one with your F-Type Sam - a french fan.

Sam, I've been following your channel for around 6 years now, and this was one of my favourite videos yet! The amount of effort put into the B roll is incredible, great drone shots, the driving shots with no music were just perfection, the way you conveyed the story was superb, you really make us feel like we're in the car with you. What a stunning place and definitely worth the early start!
