Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile di Torino, a British perspective. It's quite odd...

- Look out for the odd bits during this enjoyable visit to the Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile di Torino, or National Motor Museum of Turin. We follow the history of powered vehicles right back to the theories of Leonardo da Vinci to the future of Lancia. Typewriters worryingly lacking but there is a frankly unnecessary fairground ride, a sad robot and a Fiat Doblo fridge.

Trust the Italians to display their automotive history so well. Even the construction workers wear loafers. Thanks for the tour Mr HubNut.
I love how Italian museums allow you to get up close with the displayed objects. No barriers, great!
Disco Volante /Flying Saucer ,thanks Ian enjoyed that look around.
Seeing the Volkswagen "it's nice to see a Beetle that hasn't been slammed yo!" 100% wholeheartedly agree.
Absolutely fabulous video Ian ❤👍 what a fantastic museum I have never heard of half those vintage cars brilliant
Love your little Italian tour series of videos. Most excellent content!!
A great walkaround Ian, definitely some weird stuff though. I had to smile at the "watch out for the bed bugs", Th Abath (play on Abarth) and " a door, so you can open a window if it gets too cold", possibly meant too hot. 🙃. Many thanks for sharing.
Loudest museum ever....
It was a bit...
29:40 - that jeep is definitely Soviet GAZ-69, probably from Egypt.
My Great Grandfather Bought an Oldsmobile Curved Dash around 1903 in Melbourne Australia. As shown in Newspaper Advertisements of the Day you had to do a two week Course before taking delivery. He then drove it on mostly Dirt Roads to Buffalo Creek to pick up his wife but she stayed to have their first baby. Then went onto Wagga Wagga NSW. A trip well over 300 miles or 500 klms. So days were involved. He did No damage throughout the entire trip until he drove it through the open gate on his Farm and just caught the Fence Post denting one side of the curve. After the baby was born he drove back to Buffalo Creek picked up his wife and New Child and the last of their possessions to settle on their new farm in near Wagga Wagga.
A great video, what a fascinating place. Maybe you should try and find a car, and take part in the London to Brighton Veteran car run? It's an amazing event, and you will appreciate these veteran cars in a whole new light.
That looks like my perfect kitchen. Sadly I don't think my partner would agree!
Same same. Those Renault 4 doors are epic.
Lancia are my very favourite Italian car maker, their 60's and 70's vehicles were very beautiful. Owned a few but sadly sold the same few, wish I still had them.
Great video HubNut, very entertaining. Super !
What a cracking museum, if you stopped and looked everything you'd be in their for hours
Another incredible museum. That bathtub would be an Ar-Bath surely. 😃
I went here maybe 7 yrs ago. It appears to be mostly the same. I thought it was a great museum for non- car fans due to the interestingly designed displays and themes. It was all a bit dark , but it was fun and the car access was superb. The Alfa Romeo museum in Milan would be right to your street. I hope to get to the FCA collection in Turin at some point.
There's going to be a a very stylish typewriter in there somewhere.
What a great museum ❤
Thanks for taking us to this wonderful , weird and noisy museum Ian! I also prefer the steel wheel , beautiful in it’s simplicity!
Magnificent! Thanks for the pictures of the Innocenti Primula - an absolutely beautiful car (also seen in the movie “The Pink Panther”). Till then //\\ Martin 🚗💨🇮🇹
Some real rarities there, fascinating!
Excellent tour Sir.
12:44 As Charlie Croker would say "get in the Dormobil".
(I'm one of those sad people who knows every line of The Italian Job. I'm hoping for an opportunity to use "somebody has broken into my toilet".)
another great video has always Ian and Carly miss/mrs hubnut and hublets and hubmutt 👍
Bed bugs - LOL. Well done :)
Enjoying the content on the channel well done 👍👍
Fantastic Ian😀
Very Enjoyable Video
Thanks for showing it 🙂
Been trying to get there for a while, thanks for the look
Thanks for sharing Ian, some awesome displays 😊👍
Enjoyed this.
One of the most interesting and entertaining videos I’ve ever seen on YT. Thoroughly enjoyed that! Thanks Hubnut. 👌🏼
Nice! Cheers!
I've been there. It's great. They seem to have jazzed it up a bit since I visited.
Oh wow - yet another must-visit car museum! Very interesting stuff! (BTW, the Pagani Utopia is their latest model, replacement for the Huayra or how the hell it is spelled...) I do have to go to Turin, I realise...
It all might look and sound weird to us Brits but I must say its Very cleverly planned and executed in a way you wouldn't expect to work but it does
You could spend a lot of time in their if you wanted to Very addictive and pleased you are mixing up your content very pleasing
You really need a van to convert to camper…LDV 400 is great
If you can find them now. Very rare to find now.
AY UP MR HUBNUT
This is absolutely fascinating. We've some excellent motor museums in the UK but possibly lack a little imagination in comparison
Fantastic tour. The variety of content on the channel is amazing. And I love it all! ❤
Very interesting, Thanks for the tour.
Great to see this, a fabulous museum. I went there about four years ago and can strongly recommend.
Loving the beautiful cars. Not so much, the subdued lighting, casting its dark shadow.
Excellent mini series Ian. What a trip!
What a fascinating place. Turin is now firmly on the list to visit.
That was really interesting, thanks. I guess they were trying to keep the history stimulating with a bit of silliness mixed with the serious exhibits. Seeing the Autobianchi Primula was fascinating - I thought I was looking at something made by BL for a moment! In the 1965 European Car of the Year award, the front-wheel drive Austin 1800 won, with the front-wheel drive Primula coming second.
I liked how you called them out for their wiper misappropriations, And I proper laughed when you said Fridge Magnate lol just tickled me.
I remember going on a school holiday to Italy in April 1981 and the roads were still full of Fiat 500's and their derivatives but the mororways to and from the airport were full of Cortina mk3's with odd rear lights obviously the taunas version.
I love it. for me its the best from this years' Italian videos so far
For two years the Curved Dash Olds was the best selling car in the Colonies selling around 700 each year
The 365 in it's 2+2 form is one of my favourite Ferraris.
A fascinating place to say the least. An excellent video as always Ian.
Looks like a excellent museum to visit.
I also found out that one of the great Italian car designers Marcello Gandini, who designed some of the most memorable Lamborghini's (the Miura, Countach and Diablo) and the Renault 5 turbo. Recently passed away in March.
Sadly so. Also did the BX.
Mr Cord also owned Duesenberg, Auburn and Lycoming (aircraft and auto engines). And later Checker Automobiles (US Cabs, big) was his...
The fridge magnet at 13.53 looks nothing like mine!
I really enjoy the very early cars. Everything was new, and no manufacturer really knew what would work and what wouldn't. It must have quite amazing, possibly slightly terrifying, the first time someone encountered a vehicle that wasn't attached to a horse.
Olivetti make some really nice typewriters. They could have sneaked one of those in somewhere.
24:52 The quote is from a Surrealist "work of art" (ahem) by Rene Magritte.
Wasn't he a fictional detective?
@@johnsuffill6520 That was Maigret.
De Dion-Bouton reminds me of when Rowan Atkinson was "Star in a reasonably priced car"
Wow Ian what a collection
You can walk around there for a few days to see everything well.
25:50 A bath or Abarth? 😋👍
Yo Ian that museum is awesome sauce 👍 weirdOoooo car stuff is what I dig 😂
Imagine - a major long standing European car maker and in the case of one model you have now laid eves on 75% of them
So they naned a Museum after the American Ford Torino..... makes ya proud 🥲😂😅😜.
An Italian queen in 1961?
No, our Queen!
Didn't Fiat know that you could do 100km on 3 litres of fuel in a diesel AX?
Really enjoyed seeing all these unusual cars.
9:07 😂
The 400 was the first Ferrari to have an automatic gearbox on the options list. The three speed GM Turbo Hydramatic
The ISO-Marlboro was the first proper Williams race car…..
that Autobianchi Primula is really interesting. So they built that before the ADO16? Why then did they licence the British version?
It came after the 1100, but with what we now consider the standard layout for a transverse engine. Italian 1100 was the Innocenti.
Love a Pagani but did you know the Zonda as glamorous as it looks uses the heater controls from a Rover 45 😂😂😂
Was the duck egg blue and black Lancia Florida there? I thought it was magnificent.
Didn't see the Florida sadly.
What an awesome museum, as is your knowledge of all things cars. Do you reckon this is the best museum you've seen?
It was good but not my favourite. Too bloody noisy for one!
They missed the Nissan Mica Wave out of the kitchen. (Short lived special edition.)
Primula! Which came first, the car or the spreadable cheese?
Original Bond Minicar?!! Hah!!
The fiat parked in the wall is just too demonstrate how to park in Italy 😂
Talking of Fiat 500s not made in Italy (tenuous link), I see Alfa Romeo have had to rename the recently launched Milano. Understandably, the Italian government were a bit miffed that it wasn't actually made in Milan, but in Poland. They are going to rename it the Junior, but for my money, the Alfa Romeo Tichy would be a great name for a small (in 2020s terms) car.
The one thing that Italians can't be faulted for is design whether automobile design or fashion design.
Yellow front end on the wall Studebaker Champion the brown one is 59 Cadillac red one is a 57 Chevrolet blue one I think is a Oldsmobile or dodge
Talking of unfortunate names didn't Rolls Royce originally plan to use "Silver Mist" as a model name but quickly dropped the idea on finding "mist" is German slang for crap/dung.
Yep. Absolutely true.
No typewriter?
Did look, could not find.
Three litres per 100 kilometers would be easy nowadays if the development of small diesel engines would've not been killed by regulations. Imagine a 1 litre turbo diesel hooked up to a modern hybrid system.
But... Poor Panda mk1...
It's all gone strange again.... #BecauseItalian
And not an Olivetti in site.
That sardine can key could actually be a good idea to roll up the top of a 2CV. Maybe a bit smaller and detachable to avoid smacking cyclists with it while driving. 😛
Kitch a casa......
We actually have a Cord L-29 @work. Owned by the Boss/Owner. Unrestored. Filthy and basically unloved. In Philadelphia the original E.G.Budd Factory still exists. It was built in 1911-12. It's owned now by Donald Trump😮😋😉! A dangerous place to work at the time.... lots of people loosing limbs in the various pressings. Lots of friends and such worked there. It shut down in 1998.
1/10th ???
No typewriters, 3/10... :P
Try Ivrea, home of Olivetti….
@@johnmoruzzi7236 In full meme style, "We have Olivetti at home!"... :P
(But really, I do! A Lettra 22 typewriter that needs work, and an M4 P75-S PC!)
That was NOT a proper car museum, there were no typewriters on display! Typical Italians *facepalms*
Great looking place though, would love to spend a few days wandering around.
Steam car dating back to the American civil war is pretty surprising! I'd expect them to be at least a century younger!
Actually a century older than the American Civil War. 1769 vs the war in 1861-65.
@@jamesengland7461 I must have mistaken i with their independence war haha, I've always thought the civil war was sometime in 1770s
