Thanks for visiting my RUclips channel. I'm a motoring journalist with over 35 years of road testing experience in multiple countries (too many to list here). I'm predominantly a writer -- rather than a video presenter -- but I'm having a go at this medium as it represents a fresh challenge. I'm an incorrigible petrolhead, and have a soft spot for quirky cars from the 1960s, '70s and '80s. Feel free to drop a like and subscribe if you enjoy my content. Thanks for your support
2025 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Pro at Circuito Ascari
Join me for a tour of the 5.425km Circuito Ascari in the new Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Pro, which is a track-focused derivative of the standard GT 63. The GT 63 Pro gets a raft of tweaks designed to improve cooling and aero, and an extra pair of radiators in the wheelarches. Meanwhile, the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 has been uprated to kick out 612hp and 850Nm (+27hp and +50Nm over the standard GT 63). The GT 63 Pro also gets 420mm carbon-ceramic discs and Michelin Pilot Cup 2R semi-slick tyres as a no-cost option. This lap was by no means a full-tilt run... It was more a sighter and settling in session as I was hoping to up the intensity in the following run. Unfortunately, it started bucketing do...

Join me for a detailed tour of BMW's new fourth-generation (G45) X3 from the international launch in Munich. The newcomer is marginally longer and wider than its predecessor and gains upgraded steering and suspension kinematics to deliver sharper dynamics. It's immediately distinguishable from the model it replaces, thanks to fresh "monolithic" design language #bmw #bmwx3 #suv #4x4 #4wd #munich

Classic Review: Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Join me for a tour and drive impressions of Ferrari's stunning 365 GTB/4, better known as the Daytona. Built from 1968 to 1973, it replaced the 275 GTB/4 and ushered in a new design direction for the Prancing Horse. Powered by a 4.4-litre V12 with six Weber dual-choke carburettors, the Daytona had a claimed top speed of 280kph and 0-60mph (0-96kph) split of 5.4sec. In reality, these numbers wer...
Classic Review: Ferrari 550 Maranello

Join me for a tour of the quarter-century-old ancestor to the recently released Ferrari 12 Cilindri. The 550 Maranello was built from 1996-2002 and marked a return of Ferrari's two-seater, 12-cylinder flagship to a front-engine format as it followed in the wheeltracks of the mid-engined Testarossa and Berlinetta Boxer. Having driven it, I can concur the 550 Maranello still stands up as a magnif...
Classic Review: Ferrari's timeless 308 GTB and GTS
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Join me for a tour of Ferrari's delectable 308 GTB and GTS, which deserve to go down among the prancing horse's all-time greats. Powered by a sweet singing 3.0-litre V8 (four Weber carbs in early cars, Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection in later models), the 308 still stands up as a rewarding driver's car, and it's respectably quick and taut for an almost 50-year-old vehicle. I should point out th...

Masterstroke or strategic blunder? 2024 Porsche Macan EV up close
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Join me for a detailed walkaround tour of the all-new, second-generation Porsche Macan, which is offered solely with electric powertrains. The range-topping Macan Turbo pushes out 639hp and 1,130Nm, while the Macan 4 cranks out 408hp and 650Nm. The Turbo is an absolute rocketship, but even the entry model is more than rapid enough for public roads. Air suspension is standard in the Turbo and op...
World's fastest EV: 1108hp Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Weissach Pack unleashed in the rain

How do you deploy an1,108hp/1,340Nm EV rocketship on a soaking wet track with almost zero visibility on the straights? With just a hint of respect. Looks and sounds pretty undramatic but it was a bit hectic in the car: lakes had formed all over the circuit and I couldn't see the car in front (at all) on the straights due to the spray. Even so, this little vid showcases how rapid and surefooted ...
2024 Porsche Panamera Turbo chasing 911 Turbo S

Join me for a brisk lap of Circuito Monteblanco in the 2024 Porsche Panamera Turbo E-Hybrid. Propulsion for the newbie comes from a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 paired with an electric motor housed in unison with the eight-speed PDK transmission. This combo kicks out 680hp and 930Nm, which adds up to a 3.2sec 0-100km/h split and v-max of 315km/h. Newly available for the 2024 E-Hybrid models is Porsc...

Lamborghini's epic sounding Huracan chalks up its 10th birthday this year, but the V10 supercar has aged with supreme grace (thanks to continuous evolution and a diversified model line-up).

@@francescogaleandro4641 🙏
The 550 is the last Ferrrari to ONLY be sold with a manual gearbox. F1 arrived on the 575
You would think they would’ve went more with the Revuelto headlight style not copy Tesla
The 'normalisation' of the GT makes me think that AMG is planning a model to sit above it. Perhaps a 'mid-engined' EV?
My review... www.carexpert.com.au/car-reviews/2025-mercedes-amg-gt-review
My on-track footage... ruclips.net/video/wheb-i1a8m4/видео.html
Looks a bit bmwish
Yes, I see where you're coming from. A few hints of BeeEm Z4 in the GT's styling
To me it looks like a Porsche 911 on steroids. It doesn´t look bad, but the previous generation had its own style and a true sports car concept.
The Unibrow looks old and simpel! The Black blob at the back is not nice! The exterior design is a 4,5/10, not a convincing design, even a bit weak! Tech and performance is spot on, 9/10 This 12 Cilindri will only look ok in black!
Performante is the best one for sure, it is the only one officially hold the Nurbu record.
That GTS was definitely a US spec car originally. The indicators are much bigger and the rear valance are giveaways, although the bumpers have been sort of changed to European spec
@@weallfollowmanutd Interesting observations. Thanks 🙌
Во истину прекрасный автомобиль. Жаль что именно эту модель не делоит производитель, Maisto и Welly, 1/24
You forgot to mention how disgusting the plastic inside this car is
@@karthikJ-99 Yes, I think I briefly commented on the hard plastic, but I could have emphasised this more
I just saw this car at Fields BMW in Orlando this afternoon, sooo much piano black plastic on the front outside and plastic in the interior. I'm looking for a 2024 X3 m40i instead.
shocking at the amount of plastic and looks of it on the doors by the handles when I saw one yesterday.
Ricordi stupendi 42anni trascorsi da sasn a Porsche ❤🎉
My review... www.carsales.com.au/editorial/details/zeekr-001-rwd-2025-review-147499/
One slight error: the new X3 is 34mm longer and 29mm wider than its predecessor, not the figures I quoted in the video
Beautiful., superb colour as well
Ive never looked closely at this car cause it was so ugly wat the fcuk has a delta wing or spaceship gotta do with a car ? Wat nonsense from 2 fools i predicted Ferrari will start to fail some yrs back due to the nonsense of their design philosophy They had that bmw arsehole who designed for bmw their cars that supposed to look like they were on fire wat i think that german fool designer meant was my cars that i design are so crap that the cars should be set on fire and then that fool Ferrari entertained him ha ha ha ha
Such crap talking lying non stop the problem is they are NOT CAR DESIGNERS they just use cCAD or other programs todays younger generation as in 20-35 genuinely are good for nothing due to the agenda of the evil forces no youngsters now no anything about being themselves they just look at tv or their phone and copy all their hairstyle s same trainers same ripoed trousers same tatoos same cocks up their arseholes etc etc
The car looks crap i am an expert in car design i can tell you 100% you car will be a FAILURE i have never been wrong
Spoiled by its too-stiff ride. Even a " Super Tourer " should have an " S-Class" ride setting and other settings for those with good teeth and who like to track their cars!
Are those scale models in the BG.
Rear can be any car brand. Looks nothing like ferrari
A quick correction: zeekr hasn't yet arrived to Norway, though it is expected to happen any day now, it's been on the roads in Sweden for some time already. I test sat the 001 top trim in Stockholm this summer and i must say i was seriously impressed. And with a ten year warranty, which is what they'll offer in Norway, this car is calling to me loudly, the feel of the top trim car was seriously luxurious and it will absolutely be a hefty competition for Merceds, Audi and bmw
@@propellhatt Great. Thanks for the info about the Norwegian market 🙌💯
@@GautamSharma99991 And it's not in Denmark either - but hopefully it will be soon.
Is the 3 pieces rear spoiler exclusive for the hybrid version?
Apologies for the weird flickering image at various points. The intense heat and humidity (44 degrees) must have bamboozled my phone cam.. 🥵
It should be called Centro No Stile or Centro ZERO Stile!!!! This car’s design is an abomination!!! Bring PINIFARINA BACK ASAP!
I think it's worrying that the head designer dresses so badly. A designer has to have a certain style, whatever it may be, but he has to know how to dress.
How can you mess up the main thing or difference you’re trying to show? So you found out both are steel after you made the video?
@@LLC4145 I'm not an expert on 308s. Also steel Vs fibreglass was one of the things I was trying to show, but certainly not the main thing. The aim was to provide an overall review of the car and what it's like to drive
Note to the producers of this video. When introducing a car, you are not the focus of the video. Show the car and stay out of the shots.
@@alpi57 Yes, fair comment. This is the exact brief I gave the videographer, but I think my instructions were lost in translation (he was Italian, and I don't speak Italian)
I really like the content underrated channel. I subscribed
@@OSL-16 Thank you for your support 🙏
I am 72 I got to drive a Daytona back in the late 70s. It was a wonderful car and deserves the homage this design gives it. 812 and F12 didn't appeal to me like the original GTO, 275 GTB and the 599.
The camera work could have focused on each discussed aspect to give us a more immersive experience.
@@AmukelaniHNkuna Yes, absolutely. This is what I had asked him to do (focus in on elements being referred to) but I think my brief got lost in translation to the Italian videographer
It's starting to grow on me, but still, i will always prefer the old ferrari designs, not that im financially capable of buying one 😅
btw, a caterham has the same whipers.. compared to a caterham a morgan is a comfy mercedes
Should compare this version of diablo to the first production year model (1990)
Looks good, but good isnt enough at this level.
Beautiful car but did he just say with a straight face that it wasn’t inspired by the 365 Daytona? Everything that came out of his mouth afterwards was an insult to everyone’s intelligence
He is correct that it isn't inspired by the Daytona. It is officially inspired by the Ferrari 365 GTB/4. The name Daytona was never applied to the vehicle by Ferrari. The Daytona name was created by the media. Till this day, Ferrari never called the 365 GTB/4 a Daytona. Even the official Ferrari website doesn't use the term Daytona.
@@zarbon700 That’s CLEARLY not what he was referring to.
Super functional, good looking practical-combination vehicle. As noted by many reviewers, best handling SUV out there, and with its noted super steering and seamless braking, going to a lot of fun to drive. Really nice, informative review.
@@johnelegant1727 Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
The design language is too similar to say that you didn't research Daytona.

Shitindri
I hit speed bumps in my Huracan Evo at like 30-40mph. No issues, no scraping. 😂
@@CrystalWolf4 you're a brave man 🙌
@@GautamSharma99991 There is some that I do go slow over. But that is only the really big bumps. The magnetic dampers really help. The faster you hit them, the more it works. 😅 I do the same in My Rs3 & Rs5 with the magnetic dampers. It's just tuned "better" in the Huracan.
The camera person is not doing a good job
@@mickfoluv Unfortunately, I have to agree. I had asked him to zoom in on whatever design element was being talked about. I think my brief was lost in translation
So many angry comments from people who do not know and understand Ferrari as a car manufacturer. If you don’t like it then don’t buy if you are able to afford one 😂.
Great Review keep the good work up
Do you like the tecnica or evo for daily.
@@JGcarclips Both are usable as daily drivers. But, in my opinion, the Sterrato tops them all in terms of day-to-day usability
I love the designer's vibe - he's like, "Lol, they keep making my drawings..Best Life!"
Mitja....what were you smoking when you designed it ? You've managed to piss off almost every Urus owner .....just take a look what people are saying on the Lambo forums
Un diseño absolutamente maravilloso,a la altura de los mejores modelos de Ferrari de los años 50, años 60 ó 70 del siglo pasado. En mi opinión muy superior a los actuales coches deportivos italianos de las marcas de la competencia. Bravo Ferrari!!!!
Reason why not successor to the ferrari 812? 12Cilindri = New Ferrari 365 GTB 2024 with 812 = New Lamborghini Countach 2022 with Aventador Attention, was and always will be V12 Engine and also V8 and V6.
Do you need to spam this fake theory everywhere?
@@ahimeirhadad4836 It's a completely new car, it's just taking inspiration for its front design from the 365 gtb/4. It's like saying the revuelto is a new countach because it has a wedge shaped design. Stop with your fakery!
