It always surprises me that Mr Slowly is more in-touch with the internet than Jennifer or Hamster. Nevertheless, very good review on a car I'm personally quite a fan of though I think I prefer the new Focus ST
I've seen a few episodes, I'm not sure what you mean. Jeremy is actually pretty smart and can be clever. I just find people pretending to be stupid not funny.
@@peterhineinlegen4672 I like all three of the trio for different reasons but James has always been my favourite of them. I get what you mean though, Jeremy has always played an exaggerated version of himself, it's not the real him, which can be really funny but doesn't always work. James on the other hand is mostly just James. He has the odd bit of playing to the camera but it's still essentially him. I also think he has some of the best/funniest one liners and comebacks of the trio.
Tbh, I don't see the point of them blabbering on for 8-10 minutes when this 2.5-minute has already told me everything I needed to know. Please review your 458 Speciale next, James.
This must be the most comprehensive revue done of any car anywhere in the world at any time in the recent history of the automobile. Well done Sir, well done indeed.
He didn't even mention the red callipers! They make it very good for racing, because there you need powerful brakes aswell, and red means sporty and powerful.
@r h Yes... I am being a twat because this is a totally honest review and my mechanically incorrect comment ruins it. Also, that is absolutely what James meant (in the context of this particular, very serious review) when he said it's red, so it must be powerful. I absolutely agree.
To be honest is the worst review i have seen from James ever.... "how is to drive? its fast" . ok and thats it? its James.. he would be complaining about the harsh suspension wich theese usually do..and says nothing ..it can be fast and still be unhumanly unconfortable ..and the Civics are infamous for that..
@@Oelmotors I agree its funny but it's like when the new series of grand tour was being advertised with those short clips which were good but I couldnt wait for the new series
You can conform and have a GTI. But the civic type r is for people who want to be children again but children who hold a driving license. Just needed to be red and not grey.
Golf GTI is in a lower category in terms of speed and power, but it has a better interior, so its a choice between speed or quality. I'd honestly pick the type r, the GTI looks sort of... Passive to me, the type r instead has a lot of presence on the road. But the GTI is still an amazing choice ngl
I'm 76 and having an old age crisis, I need one to pull the birds, but first it needs finishing with Galaxy grey topcoat. Cant afford a DBS..... May James and red paint live long.
“It’s fast” *pulls away gently* probably the most James may thing I’ve ever witnessed
There's a video of him in this car blasting rap and spinning the wheels.

Dear god, James May has mastered the art of the Shitpost.
dear webster - please update your dictionaries to accurately define "troll: james may" - this was brilliant
God help us all lol
Mastered the art of efficiency.*
For the British, that's just an instinct.
That is definitely the official way to measure a spoiler versus wing......
I m going to use this method and this method only lol
What happens if people have different sized heads? Do we néed to take a head average?
Encalica the bigger your head, the bigger the wing has to be
@@encalica853 Obviously you can't use a Clarkson's gorilla type head or a Hammond hamster type head, you need a middle May!
@Joe H no, its actually functional. Same with all those vortex generators and stuff.
James May is the only older man to say “hi kids” on the internet and not make it sound creepy
There's also Sam O'Nella…
@@user-njyzcip well he isn't as old as James he's in his 20's I think
@@ComicalSatania oh i didn't see the older man part, yeah he's still in college
Also becuse the worst thing he can do is forcing you to do a 5 thousand km roadtrip going 30 kmh

"Hi kids"
This is definitely the accurate greeting
for this vehicle, absolutely. it looks like something an 8 year old would design. minus the laser cannons and missle launchers.
One *KID* to another
Yup. Anything with a wing can't be legally licensed to anyone over 35.
“Hi Kids” is what some old guy said to my friends and I while offering some candy which was in the back of his van...

It's Jezza!
Mr Slowly is not that slow actually. Remember he was the one who did the Veyron top speed trial.
I remember that episode where Clarkson said he'll change his name to jenifer
Don’t worry, some of us actually get your reference. Don’t mind the rubes...
Jezza always found something on the internet though

Doesnt he own it?
That's his normal attitude

gods all these years i thought that Jeremy was the funniest of the trio. JAMES I WAS WRONG
Jeremy was pretty funny, but the last few years of TG he just acted stupid, thinking that was funny.

I liked this before i even watched it. Because, captain slow is consistent and i liked his other RUclips's.
Pros: you don't need to spend 20 thousand quid to pimp it.
Cons: James can't umpimp it.
Quid is such a weird word
More like it pimped James so all good 👍👍
BRILLIANT! Just brilliant. Everything you want from a car review, here in 2 mins, and by May, what else can you ask for?
Infotainment:
Well, to be honest, this is a little *kak*
James May is like the high school English teacher we wish we all had.
Thank you, James. These videos made my night! Finally, someone has touched on the absurdity that has become RUclips car reviews!
Quality in depth journalism. Tells you everything you need to know.
But it is very casual, can you please unpimp it?
Standard
To much factory pimping to unpimp it
HE DID IT!

Maybe fifth gear Fanboys
somebody with brain? so definitely not us
and ricers with backward baseball hats...yawn, so 1993

Love the DBs in the background. Also can you do a video that shows all the different cars you own?
Isn’t that your civic James?
Numberplates match, so yes
Hahahahaha
he only has mid/rear engine cars
@R A yes it is
Actually isnt that the Press mule thats doing the rounds all over youtube in the UK. Supplied by Reading Honda. QueenB had it the other week.

hhaha best review ever. Mr May has nailed this RUclipsr game lol
This is genuinely the best review i have ever seen, also the most genuinw
We want more reviews like this from mr. slowly 😍✌🏼✌🏼

The nerve.

James knew that we all are far less superior than him
I love how James styles the vids like a kid would watch it. I have to say i agree James the civic is cool
Is james getting paid for saying nice things about the car?
I think so. He glossed over the hideous rear end design ;)
"Yes, he is." (thumbs up)
Its his car as well
This video is just all about James May giving thumbs-ups and a smile for this car.
