thedownshiftchannel ive had a couple of Abarths, great fun car and the 65 plate I had was more refined and better ride than the 12 plate model. Much improved at speed also. Only downsides are they are a bit of a short car, and with the firmer ride they do feel a bit unsettled on anything but glass smooth roads, and at speed they feel twitchy on the steering because of the short wheelbase. Id go with the S1 for better all round use.
This is easily one of the most naturally funny videos i've watched. I thought Sams collabs with TGE were good, this is another level. Happy Christmas James.
Dream Team right there! More of these from time to time please fellas... laughs are for all year round - not just for Christmas! Have a good one..."one and all' !
ST is great. Biposto fights the same fight but is made to pound the pavement more laps per season than ST, service conditions typical for the weekday track-renting crowd with the mega-pricy big-fish cars that are really worth chasing in a pumped-up peoples' car.
No idea how you don't have more subs, your videos are always natural and professional. This was wicked, I own a 595 Competition so loved every minute of this. Sam nailed its character although I would say I find mine comfortable on long drives! Fuel and turning circle are to be ridiculed however....
So good to see you doing collabs with Sam. You've been doing such cool stuff even outdoing Tim and he doesn't seem to have the time or inclination for collabs. Merry Xmas from down under James.
You guys have great chemistry in these vids, especially the one briefly mentioned here where you couldn't start up the F12. Would love to see more collab videos in the future!
so joyfull to watch you two have a great chemistry and it's so funny to watch....the fifth gear at 70mph, and Sams face when Mr JWW describes the function of the volume button and especially abarth price scene... I laugh so hard :D You should collaborate more often
Riccardo Šipoš you're right, totally different to when Sam bumped into Shmee at the recent Lake event, Shmee looked really awkward and unsociable as usual...😁
"The global sign for fixed buckets" hahahaha :D and between 13:20 and 14:00 i completly gave up 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 james i love your carpark but i would definitely choose the abarth... just because of it's freakoutness :D great video... made my day ;)
You two guys are like Clarkson and Hammond (missing a third one to be May) : joking about each others, talking about life while doing fun things in cars. I really enjoy videos you do both together, hope tp see more soon !! :)
I have the standard abarth for a daily driver and it's awesome the 180 does 0-62 a bit faster but the top end speed is virtually the same but to be fair all abarth make you smile
Ross Pemberton Agreed. I plan to get a Tourismo 595 because the comp suspension is just a tad too firm for a runabout. However I find the facelift bumpers hideous so they will have to be swapped out.
Well I'd just go for the first generation like mine but I would recommend the sunroof it's a pretty cool feature and when it down you hear the exhaust more to 😄😄
Ross Pemberton I want the higher quality updated interior with the infotainment and all. But I agree that the first gen 500 essesse is the quintessential Abarth.
You two are my favourite youtubers and together you guys are so funny! I hope i can live like you and drive dream cars and just joking around with your mates
two of my favourite automotive personalities on RUclips, missing Chris Harris though, but you two have a great dynamic, Shmee and Paul Wallace blow chunks.
Wanted one of these two, went for the Abarth in the end and I'm very pleased I did. Really is a car that puts a smile on your face. Like the S1 but as they mentioned it a little more sensible and tame.
Great video as always JWW. You two have a nice, easy going rapport. Comes across well. Do think Abarth are having a lend with that list price though lol
I don't know if anyone's said this, but I admire James for making these films despite his slight stutter. He's so confident and it doesn't seem to faze him at all.
It's not often I believe people when they put 'Hilarious' in the title of a video, but I have no doubt this will be brilliant. Shame I have to wait till I finish work to watch it.
You make a very amusing double act. You should set up a review channel using the same formula as this video as I found it very funny and far better than the far too many stuffy car review channels out there.
"Little yellow cars" ~ yeah, what a cool video! 695 Biposto...you have GOT to be a fan to buy one. Daily driver? Gads. Audi Quattro at least has more rear end room. "You don't need a radio when you are driving a racing car" better words have never been said! I have an Abarth 500 and have turned on the radio about 3 times in the year I have owned it since brand new. No need...the exhaust is music!
Love you guys, great video. Is personally take a non-record 695 with the dog ring and stupid window, and get it wrapped a better colour than the grey then come in, and be cruel to it and trash it everywhere. At least with such light cars bumps don't do as much damage to the car itself, I'm never too bothered about my own comfort I just worry about the suspension breaking, and in a sub-1000kg car it's not going to be an issue
Two petrolheads having fun, talking laughing and driving. What a joy!
When these two are together shit goes down.
Tai Lopez "
The abarth certainly has the character but the Audi is likely much more useable. They are both cool little yellow cars though!
I see you commenting everywhere dawg. That's dedication :D
Squidward's House thanks dude! We try to support other channels with comments as much as possible it's always a good thing!
your notice is just banal

if you are a petrolhead and you pick a car because it is useable... well your just not a petrolhead

+Bluepipe 😂 Thanks buddy! Happy Christmas to you too!! 🚗💨💨💨
#YellowCrew
#GoUploadTheGT3VideoComeOn
Kalin Yorgov LOL
Yellow Claw :'D
Best collaborations are between James and Sam. you guys just seem to have so much fun no matter what you're talking about. As always a great video!!
Sam your car's top notch but I really wanna know is where that hoodie's from?
Haven't even seen the whole video yet, but just had to say I love it when these 2 vlog together!
+Tom Meeks 😂👍🏻 Was so much fun!
Agreed
It took them 30 days to realize they both have yellow mini cars. It took 18 months for us to realize that James doesn't watch STG's channel.
aabidam 😂😂😂
Awesome video. Always love the colabs between you and Sam!
Dream Team right there! More of these from time to time please fellas... laughs are for all year round - not just for Christmas! Have a good one..."one and all' !
+The Rockson Thanks buddy! Happy Christmas to you too!
This was awesome, seeing you guys having genuine fun in the cars and enjoying each other's company. Had a smile on my face the whole time.
+Low Panda Express Thanks buddy - I think we need to plan a few more of these!
No problem, been really enjoying your vids, actually inspired me a bit to start shooting more cars :) Yea you definitely should :)
I wanna see more of these two vlogging. Pure comedy! Like gogglebox for car youtubers
+Gwarni Ha ha great analogy - will see if we can arrange some more soon!
You two are awesome together, you should collab more often :D loved it :D
+Georg Blink Ha ha thanks - was hilarious to film!
And to watch haha :) looking forward to Sams impressions of you GT3 :)
ST is great. Biposto fights the same fight but is made to pound the pavement more laps per season than ST, service conditions typical for the weekday track-renting crowd with the mega-pricy big-fish cars that are really worth chasing in a pumped-up peoples' car.
Yeah, but it's a Ford...major yawn. I'm amazed that you're actually boasting about it!
Always a laugh with you two 😁
You two must do these reviews more often!!!
It was Hilarious. And very good chemistry between you guys!
You're on screen chemistry is hilarious. Great video.
The two best car RUclipsrs in one video. Brilliant. Do it more often please.
+Nelligan Nelligan There are plans!
The face when he hears the price lol
Team Shmo that was hilarious
Great video! Well done James and Sam!
You two need to start a car show, still better than Top Gear.
Gamefection tnbr idiir pik please thank
Fabulous!!!!!!!!!!! 2 friends out for a blast and taking us along. This should definitely happen more often!!!!!
You guys need to make more collabs.This one was brilliant
You won't find a more iconic duo. You two are just brilliant together!
No idea how you don't have more subs, your videos are always natural and professional. This was wicked, I own a 595 Competition so loved every minute of this. Sam nailed its character although I would say I find mine comfortable on long drives! Fuel and turning circle are to be ridiculed however....
My 2 go to youtuber's ! Great year you guys , thanks for consistently good content.
So good to see you doing collabs with Sam. You've been doing such cool stuff even outdoing Tim and he doesn't seem to have the time or inclination for collabs. Merry Xmas from down under James.
The two best car youtubers made an ever better video! 😄
You guys have great chemistry in these vids, especially the one briefly mentioned here where you couldn't start up the F12. Would love to see more collab videos in the future!
Brilliant! Such a fun video to watch. Cant wait to see Sam's video on the GT3!
James is so used to downshifting on the wheel he tapped it and realised stick shift.
happens to him, Shmee and i believe ive seen SOL do the same and STG probably has the same issue but i dont recall noticing in the past
You guys have great chemistry on camera haha, was great to watch!
Great video guys, Merry Christmas and another great year
Cheers buddy!
That was a fun video ! 👍 thank you James & Sam.
+Remi Put Pleasure as always - good to see you here again Remi! 👍🏻
so joyfull to watch you two have a great chemistry and it's so funny to watch....the fifth gear at 70mph, and Sams face when Mr JWW describes the function of the volume button and especially abarth price scene... I laugh so hard :D You should collaborate more often
Riccardo Šipoš you're right, totally different to when Sam bumped into Shmee at the recent Lake event, Shmee looked really awkward and unsociable as usual...😁
good times, good friends, good fun. Well done James and Sam. Keep laughing and keep kicking it down the road. thanks for the fun. (Mike in Ohio)
Can you make this like a weekly thing? Laughed the entire vid, awesome content James haha
Best collaboration videos come from these 2
+hbonilla89 Was a lot of fun to film! 😂👍🏻
You guys are hilarious together, please do more vids like this
We need some more of this content. I remember watching it back when it was released and it’s as good now as it was back then ✌️
"The global sign for fixed buckets" hahahaha :D and between 13:20 and 14:00 i completly gave up 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 james i love your carpark but i would definitely choose the abarth... just because of it's freakoutness :D great video... made my day ;)
Have to love this channel all other RUclipsrs are really careful about swearing and then there's MRJWW 😂😂
This was a great video and a great partnership. some good banter between you guys. Lets see more!
You two guys are like Clarkson and Hammond (missing a third one to be May) : joking about each others, talking about life while doing fun things in cars. I really enjoy videos you do both together, hope tp see more soon !! :)
Great video..the radio in the S1 made it even funnier LOL! You two should do even more videos together
This video is so good, watched it when it came out and ever since watched it about 4 times haha
You two need to make series.. it will be fun to watch :D
The best car video on RUclips, so funny please do more
These videos are so much better than your 212 sponsored ones. You need to do more of these James.
Hooray for the yellow crew! Haha
You guys should do more videos together! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Great video.. should do more videos together.. and with Paul as well.. the banter is on point 😂👌🏻
Brilliant video this. You two are great together. Have been looking forward to it since I saw the photo on Instagram.
+Peter Booker Thanks buddy will see if we can get a few more colabs out soon!
The abarth 180 is totally fine you don't need the biposta really
Ross Pemberton The competizione makes more sense. It has all of the expected features and only marginally less power.
I have the standard abarth for a daily driver and it's awesome the 180 does 0-62 a bit faster but the top end speed is virtually the same but to be fair all abarth make you smile
Ross Pemberton Agreed. I plan to get a Tourismo 595 because the comp suspension is just a tad too firm for a runabout. However I find the facelift bumpers hideous so they will have to be swapped out.

Ross Pemberton I want the higher quality updated interior with the infotainment and all. But I agree that the first gen 500 essesse is the quintessential Abarth.
You 2 should make more video's together, I was laughing my ass off while watching this! So much fun!!! Haha
The Quattro must be an amazing car!
You two have the magic to appear in the same video. I love both of your channels . please do more joint video
I loved the energy of you guys, made it hilarious!
Seeing Mr JWW driving the Abarth 695 made my 2016 !!
freeeka you had pretty shity year, right?
kimi88cz nope , im a fan of him and i also drive an Abarth.
Great to see both you guys. Love watching both your vids
You guys should do more videos together. I really enjoyed this one.
what a fantastic video. love the content as usual!
you guys should definitely do more videos together. This was great to watch
You two are my favourite youtubers and together you guys are so funny! I hope i can live like you and drive dream cars and just joking around with your mates
Saw your s1 on Saturday in stoke what a nice little pocket rocket great car
two of my favourite automotive personalities on RUclips, missing Chris Harris though, but you two have a great dynamic, Shmee and Paul Wallace blow chunks.
Wanted one of these two, went for the Abarth in the end and I'm very pleased I did. Really is a car that puts a smile on your face. Like the S1 but as they mentioned it a little more sensible and tame.
Paul has the best daily car out of the car youtubers
Already had good fun watching you both enjoying this, can't imagin how much fun this car is! Awesome! :)
Still reckon you need to take it to ABT & get it tuned to 330bhp!
+Adam Leask Could be a lot of fun
Adam Leask oh shut up
I am not going to mention the other youtubers but as Georg Blink mentioned you guys are great together. How about you two do the West Coast next year?
Easter arrived early haha, great video as always mate!
Great video as always JWW. You two have a nice, easy going rapport. Comes across well. Do think Abarth are having a lend with that list price though lol
hey MrJww, since it's winter, will we be seeing more videos with the RS6 ? thanks for the quality content as always :)
Amazing video James & Sam! 🙌🏽
James, you should put an exhaust system on the S1!!
you two are the most funny reviewers together do more reviews together peeps pls.
Get ur S1 remapped 315 bhp at least.
And have the CV joints and clutch fail no thanks these cars aren’t designed for remapping they’re a money pit once you start on that
I don't know if anyone's said this, but I admire James for making these films despite his slight stutter. He's so confident and it doesn't seem to faze him at all.
It's not often I believe people when they put 'Hilarious' in the title of a video, but I have no doubt this will be brilliant. Shame I have to wait till I finish work to watch it.
Always been a fan of the abarth, even though i'm 6' 3" :)
more videos with mr jww please! you guys are funny togheter
Really enjoyed this video! You two are so funny together
+Zion Geeratz This was a lot of fun!
I love videos with you two guys ; )
The Reaction of James is Priceless 😂
Hahahah JJW's reaction when he heard the price of the fiat 500
Entertainment at its best! Thumbs up for both of you guys, and for banana Fiat :D
Since when did he get a S1?
Electrical Tape isn't the S1 his girlfriends car that he showed in a video a while ago...
Electrical Tape I think he had the s1 before he even had a channel or at least since the beginning of the channel
Had it for 18 months - only featured it on the channel once before ; )
Electrical Tape longtime keep up
Porsche 911
Loved this video, when are you doing more RS6 videos?
Love seeing James and Sam collab. Two of the best automotive RUclipsrs.
Sam get the GT3!!
You make a very amusing double act. You should set up a review channel using the same formula as this video as I found it very funny and far better than the far too many stuffy car review channels out there.
Great video. James, is there a chance for you to drive and "review" Paul Wallaces AMG GT?
Would be very interesting to hear your opinion about it.
Nice vid as always. Did you go to the Fitzherbert Arms for one of their lovely steak pie and chips?
@18:50 £35k is the S3 list price, the S1 starts at £26,335
Whirlynerds James probably meant what his spec cost! :)
I specd a normal A1 for my wife and it came to 28k...slightly higher than the 15k start price..
Wow, you guys are insane, you were driving on the wrong side the whole time! :o
Greeting from Germany Tommys!
"Little yellow cars" ~ yeah, what a cool video! 695 Biposto...you have GOT to be a fan to buy one. Daily driver? Gads. Audi Quattro at least has more rear end room. "You don't need a radio when you are driving a racing car" better words have never been said! I have an Abarth 500 and have turned on the radio about 3 times in the year I have owned it since brand new. No need...the exhaust is music!
you two should film more videos together
Hahahaha. Finally somebody roasted that know-it-all Sam. James, I love you
hey nice one, what camera u use for vlog?
Fucks sake just sitting in a quiet library pissing myself to this video hahaha.
Love you guys, great video. Is personally take a non-record 695 with the dog ring and stupid window, and get it wrapped a better colour than the grey then come in, and be cruel to it and trash it everywhere. At least with such light cars bumps don't do as much damage to the car itself, I'm never too bothered about my own comfort I just worry about the suspension breaking, and in a sub-1000kg car it's not going to be an issue
I've owned and daily driver an Audi S1 for a year now, it consumes quite a lot but damn it is so fun ! I'm waiting for the warranty to mod it tho
