Harry, thank you for sharing these wonderful experiences. You are doing such a great job, showing a big heart for the beautiful cars!
Went to Brescia myself and did the MM. And I saw Harry Metcalfe with a camera dancing around the Alfas before the start - but I didn't suspect he would actually drive one. LOVE it - exquisite is the word I am looking for ;)
Another reason why I love Harry Metcalfe and his wonderfully insightful, laid-back EVO diaries. All power to you Harry for continuing to share your motoring enthusiasm with similar like-minded souls.
You're living the most amazing life Harry I hope you realize that. Good luck.
One of the best videos ever made by Evo/Metcalfe. Thanks!
Harry! Thank you so much for your videos. I love feeling like I'm there. You're doing a great job. Thank you!
U gotta love this life!
This is a fantastic video. Thank you so much Harry and Evo.
i definetely have to do this in my life!
Thumbs up for spending quality time with your daughter.Harry M.Great as always.
Harry, thank you. Fantastic entertainment as always.
beautiful event, great video
thx for sharing
the best car event i have ever seen.
Harry's EVO diaries just keep growing and growing on me... They're of a different sort than other reviews, but not in the least bit inferior.
A wonderful episode!
nice work, you started the magazine but you've found your niche in the evo diaries. love it.
Great video. I love driving in northern italy, switzerland and austria, you can drive flat out everywhere on awesome roads!
I don't think Mr Clarkson or Nedeell would have been humble enough to do this sort of reportage for us passionate viewers. So thank you. For this piece and for the whole "dairies" series.
You are a happy man! Very very happy!!!
Awesome video!
would love to do a event like that. thanks for sharing
Great video, I enjoyed those 30min. Thank you !
Great video as always Harry
Great little alfa
I really like the video and sound of the mountain driving. I like the fact there was no music spoiling the engine sound
Thanks Harry!
Good that Harry is doing this; great little car too
How I have missed your unique musings, Harry. Cheers, mate!
Awesome Video !
Excellent !!! thks Mr Metcalfe
a 30 min evo video!!! great stuff!
Anothe great, great video Harry. True petrolhead living the dream...
Thanks for sharing...
He mentions the beetle coming by him. It came by us at full speed too. Definitely NOT stock for the period (we were in a car that should have eaten it for lunch). Glad to see the video of it having blown a motor along the way. Just desserts!
Yeeeeap, thats a very fine piece of video there.
And yet again .................crackin' stuff from Harry ;o) I want to see the pedals/how the seat folds/ the boot interior...... No-one else does like you mate - a true Petrolhead.
It's a lot of fun keeping a slow car on the boil!
wow, this car sounds great.
Yeah DAMN !! What a beauty!!
love it
All time great
Any HD version coming along ? If so, I'm gonna wait to take this awesomeness full on.
from around the 13:00 mark the alfa just sounds magic
love the slr stirlikg moss that was infront, perfect car to do the mille miglia in :) wish i could go!!
early form of cylinder deactivation eh? haha great video. love it
LOL, I love how he doesn't give a shit and just filming himself and talking in the crowd while people stare at him :D
This is madness!!!!!!
When Im 50 I will be doing this :)
i spotted harry at goodwood the other week
one more great story,from the master Metcalfe.
What a nice alfa
i have never seen SO MANY GULLWINGS in one place
Trust me, here in Italy we are good in make these kind of stuff
Makes you want to do the Mille Miglia..
Better than Bull run .... realy enjoyed this vedio..
Thank you EVO...
harry is a celebrity
The sound of an Alfa.......
Is it only me but I love the 159 Ti support car
One word = Jealousy. They see people driving in these beautiful old cars which are worth thousands if not millions they get angry because they don't have that asset or the money just to enjoy life. What I said is not necessarily be considered the case but people can be jealous of anyone who drives a brand new Lamborghini or these beautiful "well aged" cars like this stunning and beautiful Alfa Romeo.
Total legend!......Harry wasn't bad either! ;)
Alfa had column shifters? Wow.
HARRY, I would like to work in EVO middle-east!
Jeez, what a lovely machine. They don't make them like they used too...
What 'no brakes' meant in this case? Was the braking hardware completely missing or it was "just" very worn out? It sounds incredibly dangerous anyway... I don't know how the factory team could let it go like that. Maybe that also shows how much care they give building cars...?
Figure of speech more likely. It is a 1950's car and very likely has drum brakes all around. Good for the day but nowhere near the performance of modern disk brakes. As a driver, Harry would have to be prepared for much longer braking distances than he might expect. So it might feel like he "has no brakes".
great way to make a living
Harry!
text me please the next time you come to Italy!
Harry, curious what you meant when you said you signed your life away.
Superleggera? wow, that's nice mr. Metcalfe
WHERE IS MAH HD!?!
5 minutes in, typical alfa romeo reliability =))
This is a great adventure, and that blonde beauty isn't so hard to look at either.
are you allowed to 'speed' during the event?
4:45 That's how you know it's a real Alfa lol. Still gorgeous cars though.
it was made by touring using supperlaggera construction which was famed before and after the war. they did a lot of cars in the past
NO seat belts?
I wouldn;t drive it around the block, let along take it Mille Miglia! Holy Deadly Impact Batman!
unlike most car brands, Alfa Romeo 'coz they've made awesome cars in the past and rubbish cars now days, that's why i love Alfa Romeo...
Welcome to Italy, the place where nothing goes as it should
If you wached the whole video, you would seen that the only problem alfa had, was a loose batery cable!
25:57 girl in yellow top is gorgeous
What was the protest about, i don't speak Italian
16:29 "cavello, Cavello, CAVELLO!!!"
No Tiff this time?!
didnt he just do the mille miglia in his barchetta?
is that harry's wife next to him?
11:22 damn
It's worth it just to get you annoyed.
If those protesters weren't there, the Aston wouldn't have overheated ._____.
Umm, I think that's his wife (the co-driver).
LOL, driving on the sidewalk
Why the hell would anyone protest a classic car rally?
Lol the Protest...XD
God, I wish I was a feemason aswell sometimes.
tell me that when you crash lol
might have been a joke lol :P
Luckiest guy in the planet
what? :o
Column mounted shifter, Yuck. :-/
WTF were they protesting about? They fucking green peace people or what? If they are they should be glad to come from an area that is so rich in automotive history! Hell, I'm from Ohio, I'm glad the whole gas and oil thing started here! and its starting again!
Protesters = fun stoppers. Why don't they protest their politicians instead of people having a nice time
only guys do this lol
Wow, he actually got the Lincoln right! Its a 54! Lol even I thought it was just like an old show car with a bunch of different parts, like maybe pontiac trim, 55 buick lower bumper with cadillac cones. Lol bleahk lincoln made ugly cars in the early 50's.
