Why is The Punisher a car mechanic who maintains old race cars?

Matt, you need to drive Alfaholics GTA-R 240. Carbon bonnet, doors, boot lid, titanium suspension components, 240bhp 2 litre N/A 4 pot running motec engine management etc and a kerb weight of 830kg. Chris Harris loves it, Dickie Meaden wants to have it's children, and i'm obsessed with it.

Beautiful! I wish car companies these days would build more small rwd cars like the giulia or escort or even the 510.

Hi Matt my mum had the 1300 junior GT and then a 1600 junior GT in the 70’s both new. The red 1600 we had a great road trip from Nottingham to Antibes, on the way back my dad had it well over 100 fully laden down following a bmw motorbike. We spoke to the motor cyclist at the port and he was impressed it kept with him. So wish mum had put them in a garage and kept them. She replaced with a Renault 5! This one in the film seemed to be a bit gutless. Thank you for the films have thoroughly enjoyed watching them over the years . Best wishes mark

Gotta hand it to Mr John Campion. I love every single piece of art in your colection. And you drive them!

Utter perfection. As an Alfisti, this is pure sex. The Alfa Twinspark is hands down one of the best sounding 4cyl ever made. Almost nobody can inspire passion for driving like an Alfa. Unless you own one...you just don' t know. They will infuriate you, but they are never boring. Also, the "Italian Tune Up" really works - for my 155 V6 it re-aligns the tappets and makes the engine sing better. Seems this little Giulia was in bad need of one, that idle sounded bad and the engine obviously was not running at 100%.

I’m really going to miss these one takes, can’t help but get sad each one I watch now 😔

I’ve got the 1967 MGbgt w/OD in 3rd & 4th that I bought in 1988. I had a spinal cord injury in a work-related accident & am now a C-5 Quad, and I have one of the most rare MGbgt examples made. It was just about 70% restored when I married, and now it’s been sitting for long enough to need new tires. This video inspires me to get it redone, last year of the steel dash, the electric overdrive in both 3rd & 4th, back the metal respray of the original British Racing Green, and somehow affiliated with Paddy Hopkirk…(aftermarket gas-pedal). Even the engine was rebuilt 50 miles ago before it sat for 15 years. It’s too hard to say goodbye to it while it’s in this knick. Wife will kill me, but I’ve got to get it done to a point where it’s looking like it did when it came home from Bristol Motors in Victoria, BC. It makes me sad to see it in this shape. Thanks for sharing this inspiring video, beautiful car.

The panic pass was the highlight of this video. A really needed one.

Car with personality and an honest engine sound.

At 3:25 the owner in the passenger seat rests his arm on the window sill, then , Matt also does this, and out of a typical guy reaction, they each recognize they don't want to be seen "mimicking" the other male and put their arms back in unison; creating some awkwardness, or slight "Cringe" if you will.

That sideways glance at Matt as he goes 3 for 3 in the passing area. Oh my... Cheers Matt. Even though Florida has the wrong roads for the Giulia, this was a good one

ohhh keep them coming mat that sure brings nostalgia back into mind

Car sounds great!! I’ve always loved this car❤️🚗🚘

Instant thumbs up because it's an Alfa Romeo.

Perfect timing with the new Giulia's Car of the Year award!

This got a like before starting the video. Stunning car.

It should be able to hit redline in 4th without that much trouble. Possibly something off with the carb setup or ignition timing.

I have a little rwd 1.6 car kinda like this, though just a 4 speed. Figuring out how to get the most from its small weight and power is half the fun. That was rad.

Love this and the 2002 shaped cars.

Fawgeddabowdittt!! Loved the GTV since I first saw one in the driveway of a neighbor in the early 1970's!! Am I the only one who cringed a bit the way Matt was piloting this fresh rebuild??!! I think Andrew did...

A really beautiful looking car lovely wheels...... it must be a lot of fun.....

Those carbs sound so good

I love this body of the Guilia. Such a sexy car. I just wish that 4 bangers today sounded this good.

Beautiful car. Though is it just me, or does the "engineer" seem more like the garage muscle than an actual tech? IDK, something just doesn't feel...right.

Beautiful car:)!!

Laughed at both of them putting their arm on the windowsill and thinking better of it more than once.

What a great car !

Awwwwwwwww fuck yess. More Alfa’s m8

Love this car!

GTs are so beautiful! If I could have an Alfa it would be a GTV or a first generation Duetto.

Beautiful as are all Alfa’s!

Would've been nice to see an 037 before now. I'll miss these One Takes too.

Florida -- Why I stopped riding a sport bike!

What happened to the Delorean - last update was 4 years ago as far as I can see?

What a gift to wake up too!

Great looking car

Hey Matt, I don't think this guy could describe how an internal combustion engine works if you held a gun to his head! 😂

Matt is rockin the hell outta that Batman Rolex!

Che bellísima machina! I love it.... I'd almost be afraid to thrash it and pick up a rock chip lol

One of my dream cars, they're only getting more expensive by the day

Sick three car pass!

I love cars with haracter maybe you could do a monthly video on vehicles with character not just cars, but boats and anything else that strikes your fancy.

Finally a proper car

At least it's an honest review. The car was fun in it's time. The roll cage and harness belts crack me up.

the car might be ubdercarburated due to the low octane fuel in the us ( i might be wrong) , but this is coming from an alfa guy and dad, we have some experience with those and it seems a little sloweer than it should be

lol they're so sweaty at the end when they take their seatbelts off!

Beautiful

Was just tripping balls thinking i have seen this before then i remember its this dudes boss that own's a heap of cars.

A truly great car with the wrong guy looking after it!

such a *sexy* car, no other way to describe it

Beautiful car collection, but I would go insane going that slow on a straight road.

The Alfa Giulia is and always has been my choice as the most beautiful car ever made. Period.

it just needs Alpha C4 engine conversion. What a beauty

DANG that was out of its' element loll Matt could hardly deal with it

If you ever get the chance to re-do some of these cars on a better road, please do

I know where there is one in florida abandoned. I would love to see in good hands restored

My favorite car in the entire world ....ever

Sweet little canyon carver.

Matt, that 6400 sounded more like 7400... But that was fun to watch.

I want that Fulvia in the background.

If you're in Florida again, take a trip to Ozella Trail. There's a particular corner that is known for a sudden decrease in radius that is notorious for wiping out motorcyclists.

Does someone know the reference for the wheels?

Dude that thing was just like STOP SHORT SHIFTING ME!!

How reliable are the new Alfa Romeos?

Has this car got dragging brakes or something?

Make a review with the new giulia qv!!

anyone know the name of those wheels?

That "mechanic" doesn't seem to know much about cars. He does have a sniffing problem though.

Did Matt just do permanent damage to the transmission?

I like this guy's laugh

Oh yes ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Should`ve used a nicely modified 2.0 ltr. with 200bhp to 230bhp and regular gearbox ratios. This 1.6 with short gearing is just silly in Florida.

It`s a good day when you`re driving a Giulia GT wearing a Batman. Just for the hell of it couldn`t you do a "state of the collection"-thing on your watches Matt....

I feel like 170 rear wheel horsepower would be a great number for that car given the sub 2,000lbs curb weight. Of course no turbos allowed, those wheels may be too heavy if 110-120hp is winding out that slow, sounds like it could use some lighter components idk if it's the wheels themselves being slightly larger, or the flywheel, driveshaft who knows but 120 whp should be enough to atleast get bmw 320i-like acceleration out of this if certain components were made lighter.

What, noiceee

Beautiful ride! Should have gotten Alfaholics to do the motor.

still hopes it will continue with another host

Beautiful and slow - great fun car that won’t get you put in gaol.

Alfas have that rough idle because maybe they have hotter cams. I like the engine sound, see those Weber carburators

The best Alfa Romeo is the GTA where the A stands for Allegerita, translated means lightened, the entire body is build in aluminum.

Un'auto da corsa da usare su una strada con curve e tornanti (It is a racecar to use on a road with corners and bends).

I suspect that engine is in need of tuning, maybe. They never had problems with not starting or stalling on a hot day when I was a kid - in Australia where it's often in the mid-100s in summer - and it really seemed to be lacking power in the upper rev range, kinda running out of puff and straining to rev past 5500 rpm or so. And while it's about the same power as my brother's stock Fiat 124S BC (and the same size engine), the FIAT would pull almost to redline in 5th.

rippin!

Dream car

Welcome to flatlands Florida!.....home of the best driving roads in America!😞

That car looks like the sweetest cherry ever!

I wanna do something like this with my gtj

RIP

nice GMT

Is this the " It likes to rev, it'll take 12k" guy? X)

Ah, I was losing hope for America, but this vid‘ is putting it all back into good order.

FUCKING GORGEOUS!!!!

Bellissima

Man o man, I had a '67 Guilia Sprint Gt, 1600 cc, dual Webers, four wheel disc brakes, 5 speed, independent 4 she'll suspension. A much more tech advanced car than the iconic Porsche 356...

I've never seen anyone look so nervous when some one drove their car for a video review.

A boosted sr20 wud work wonderful in this car

Running max rpms while breaking-in the engine... well

That car is cool as fuck!

Check Chris Harris' vid on this car. Shit is badass. Carbon fiber resto mod version of this car available to the public for 200k .
