@@fredericoespinoza I am aware of this - I am an avid listener to the podcast!😅 But in this video he stated Alfa Giulia QV, M3 Touring or GTC4 Lusso as well as the P8, as potential options! But I think he should go for the jag!
@meowzer60 Why would anyone need to wait for a P8? All available models were all made, maybe by 2019. I was close to buying a P8. Still think of that car nearly a year later. Quite special.
Would love a 'day in the life' of STG kinda video, would be cool to see everything that goes in to making the channel the success it is, the level of polish and finess you achieve in the content you produce.
Let’s be honest Sam the car you really want is the project 8. I think as much as the challenge stradale is your unicorn the memories with the 360 and the hours you’ve put into it mean letting it go will be too hard. So I think you should keep the 360, GT3 get a project 8 and then potentially do a deal on the F Pace with Jaguar to keep Viki happy. You obviously have an amazing relationship with Jaguar, so maybe the project 8 along with the F Pace isn’t an impossibility. I love your honesty (a lot of RUclipsrs may have suggested they had bought the F Pace SVR) you have always been very upfront about whether a car has been loaned to you or bought, it’s why yours is the channel to go to for good honest content. On a side note nice to meet you at the Podium for the Behind the Glass Podcast yesterday👍🇬🇧
Whatever you do. Keep the GT3. It is the best spec ever I would go for a 964, looks the bomb and drives amazing. I drove a RS replica and loved the fact feedback and rawness of it About the daily. I would go for a previous gen M3 comp, Gulia Quadrifoglio or a taycan
Hi Sam. In my opinion, I think it would be really cool to buy a 360CS (which is also kinda a classic), but then buy an actual classic (which is in good reliable order and has 4 seats), which would also tick that box too. I think your current 360 is awesome ( I would love to own it), but with most things in life, we sometimes need a change...
I have SVR. +2y Old kid. And oldest gt3 Honestly I would not want p400. It is great car but SVR feels special and on 21” is very capable as family car for my wife and kid. Honestly it handle it well a bit more than 2 years already. Wife just hate 22” so W drive only 3 months on summer tires. Kid love this car and acceleration already so without plan I rise petrolhead sadly.
GREAT CAR - well enjoy driving ours. And Sam I did offer you this as a Drive the World option when you were 'down under' 🙂 Hope you and Vicki enjoy the drive.
Sam, congratulations on the Jag. Buy the Alfa Guilia. You can develop it zo mindblowing performance and you will get all your money back. The motors are bulletproof if you upgrade the electrics.
Might be a cool project to convert the 360 Modena into a Challenge Stradale. You already have the classic car and this is a great project in my opinion.
I think we can all relate to the compromises of what to put in the garage! For me, the GT3 content is the least unique, but I get that you have done so much with the 360 already. It would be great to run the Guilia & the Project 8 at the same time as you would quickly know how they compare. If you want to understand the Capri, the Professionals is always on at some time on ITV4 in the UK.
There's only one classic car you need Sam.. a 65-73 Porsche 911. Infinitely beautiful, customisable, and a perfect soundtrack to match. Check out Bure Valley Classics in Norfolk, which is where I bought my 1984 911, a gorgeous and faultless car.
Get a Panamera Sport Turismo PHEV as a daily. The benefits of the massive backseat, massive boot and electric range for daily use, combined with the sportiness of a V6 or V8 in the front, make it the ultimate dad wagon. You’ll have no regrets. I have one & can’t think of anything else that practical, sporty and yet very efficient on the fuel for daily use.
Have a thing or two exotic, but that vintage Alfa would be hard to beat. You could upgrade with Alfaholics bits as time goes on. Having a small, relatively quick, car that looks really good and doesn't cost an arm and a leg to run would be a good thing. I currently run a '16 Mazda MX-5 and a new to me '16 F-Type 3.0S manual transmission coupe, but I've owned many Alfas starting in 1967, a 105 series GTV still tugs at the heartstrings.
See if Alfa will give you the facelift QV and give them a chance to prove their dealers aren’t as bad as I’ve experienced in the past. Main reason I haven’t gone for a QV
17:03 I reckon the Mini Cooper SE could be a pretty perfect electric run-around car. I tested one a few days ago and it is actually really brilliant. Especially in the "maximize" trim
I have driven one for a few days and the range is absolutely terrible. The driving experience is great but 150/160 km is barely enough if you're driving carefully around town. He does a lot of trips outside London for work meetings so it could get annoying as a daily. Other than that it's a lovely car
I have done the same change and don‘t miss my F-Type R 2016. I sell it to my brother and can it use, if we change our cars 😊 For me is the SVR more comfortable and useabel with more space for golf clubs and so one, near the same performance, sound is beautiful and newer interieur. You can drive it up to 8,5 Lit to 100 km on a open scale to 20 … Gratulations !!
Content idea! You haven't gone over what camera gear and editing software you use in a while. Im obsessed with the quality that you produce. Would live to know how you pull it off.
And it’s in the mind of all owners as they get their faulty JLR repaired. It’s the worst brand for build performance and quality. Just to say my cousin built and designed the JLR hill descent suspension. It’s still a rubbish brand IMO
You need a project 8. A day in the life video would be great. When you do the Australia BTG tour travel blogs would be amazing. Lastly, have another test drive of the mini electric, it’s a seriously good car, probably the best thing we’ve every bought, amazing to drive, cheap to run, ideal for a second car, 120-140 miles in summer, 110 in winter so for knocking around its ideal.
I think the 360 has been great but it doesn’t generate much content anymore. If you’re planning to keep it and never drive it anymore, why not trade it in for a CS. (Which, be honest, you’re not going to drive very often as well)
The suggestions of Italian classics are my two dream cars! I believe you can create a similar performance Alfa Romeo 105 series coupe by buying one and getting your mechanic to install choice Alfaholics onto it. For a small runabout you can go for a Peugeot 208 (or for more space) a 2008, this can be either electric or petrol, that's what one of your friends have done.
Hi Sam, for your classic and given you may need something more practical these days, have you considered a Ferrari 412i? awesome looking coupe, classic V12 and still reasonably attainable. Or maybe something potentially more reliable like a Mercedes 560SEC. Both understated baller coupes! DO IT!
Alphaholics GTA-R is one of my favorite cars. If you wouldn’t convert the Challenge to a manual I’d keep the car you have. The Scud with a manual is another one of my favorites
The key with classics Sam, is to buy them from the owner/restorer, who has spent huge amounts of cash restoring to a mint condition, only to lose his shirt when selling on. Doing it yourself, (unless you are supremely capable), is a non starter....look at the money TGE has had to spend on his 912 and Sport Targa. It can be a harsh lesson. I could see both the Capri's from the Professional's in the showroom (Silverstone Auctions sold them as a pair - Bodie and Doyles cars) I think this TV show was a good bit before your time Sam so we can forgive you your lack of knowledge! To my mind you already have a classic in the 360.....you seem to be duplicating....again.
Disagree with the comment that you will lose your shirt on renovation costs. Sam can trade the cost of improvements against free advertising & tax deductions. .
You can't offend anybody with regards to the Capri, the Capri is my kind of car. Ask me about the latest hypercar and you've completely lost me and yet we are both petrol heads Sam. What we can do is learn more about other types of cars which is such a fantastic experience!
Lusso for sure, if you already have a big spacious 5 door suv for vicky that you use on family trips etc, the Daily sports car will only occasionally take your family, so missing the rear doors will only be an inconvenience every so often, but will be great car for the 95% of time its just you and your camera gear
Get an Audi SQ8 £93K brand new with HD Matrix LED headlights; adaptive air suspension and anti roll with rear wheel steering and night vision for countryside night driving with the sports pack. It has the Lamborghini Urus engine like the model above it, RSQ8 which is an extra £30K £93K > £123K. It get a brand new RS7 for £130K - £135K. 5 seat and GT mike eater with the family with you in comfort and safety AWD and driving safety aids. £93K SQ8 brand new + £130K RS7 = £223K: 2-year warranty and 2-year roadside assistance with the AA and RAC. Bring cost down by swapping out SQ8 £93K for Q8 £73K brand new Total now £203K or SQ7 7-seater with Lamborghini Urus engine and non-sloping rear coupé style roof like SQ8 and RSQ8 are distinguished by. SQ7 about £77K brand new, new total £207K all brand new and not used Ferrari GTC-4 Lusso for £190K.
Tried to get a very small printer from PC world in my boot yesterday Didn’t fit in the tiny Ftype boot you get with the convertible 😂 I do sometimes think why do I own this car Then the exhaust crackles and I remember it’s not a family car 😂
A daily can be anything, including your GT3 & 360. The 360 'IS' your classic as also would be a Stradale so follow your heart. You don't need a daily you need a utility / family / back up car, skoda yeti or similar would do the job for £10k. Then buy an interesting 4th car every 3-4 months for fun, modern classic, e46M3, 987 boxster, golf GTi, whatever takes your fancy just spend up to £20k and keep till you fancy a change. These high value new SUV's are of little interest to your target audience but usable £20k sports cars are. And they don't have the same capitol outlay and depreciation.
4-door, 4-seat? Get a hellcat Charger, I know they sell them in the UK. You'll just have to keep an eye out. Can confirm that it's good for a family, although 3 car-seats across the back is a bit of a stretch.
992 gt3 and 360cs would be the ultimate garage line up. Who cars what your daily is when you have those two? Saying that, a project 8 or gtc4 lusso would be incredible to see.
Just knew the F-Type replacement was going to have that supercharged 5litre👍, hopefully a Project 8, Challenge Stradale and the GT3 over the next year will make your working garage even more watchable 😉
Straddle, fPqce SVR. Get rid of the GT3 then you can go for a good classic and an EV that Vicki can use when you aren’t in the FPace SVR. The FPace SVR is amazing value for money for what you get and slings absolutely amazing
Having watched for most of those ten years it would be a shame to see the 360 go however I completely get it and what a milestone! A difficult decision to know wether to convert the 360 and have a manual challenge stradale but it never feel truly authentic and selling the 360 for a challenge stradale that doesn’t have the connection you have with your current car. It’s a tough one!
Pretty amazing how successful you are with 1 video/week. With a new baby at home, I wouldn’t risk that for a 360 Strad. Quality of life is far more important. If you have passive income on the side to cover it, then absolutely go for it.
That V8 rumble is nice nice, almost as good as the ML 6.3 one, congratulations on update from another father who was "forced" to move to SUV daily due to family update lol.
There is something in installing the rear seats in the GT3. You don’t track it. So the extra weight probably doesn’t matter. Presumably there are companies that do it. Maybe you can borrow one and collab! Excellent video as usual.
Peter Drucker wrote “The best way to predict the future is to create it.” You began doing that nearly ten years ago… I’m thinking the Challenge Stradale is in your future.
Fantastic new daily Sam. A lot more practical than the F type even though it’s a great car. But you still get the v8. What about an Alfa Remeo Gulia Quadrifoglio or the new M3 wagon.
Great Video Sam 🎉 you could visit Harry in his garage for further, let’s say…, spiritual inspiration 😅 the UK doesn’t produce the best cars in the world but definitely has the greatest car channels for automotive enthusiasts ❤ 🇬🇧
Loved this update and think the CS for the 10 Year anniversary is a very interesting idea. My gut feel, you won’t miss the Modena as much as you think once you start new adventures in the CS
I have a basic F Pace for similar reasons and it fits my requirements, perfectly. Not sure why it wouldn't work as a daily user. Why not spend less money and buy a MG BGT? As for the 3.0S, part of my fantasy garage, back in the day (although in black). Alongside it, would have been a Yamaha RD350LC. As for the Professionals, I thought it was a 2.0S in silver.
Your Modena is going to feel like 95% of a CS.. I think it would be silly to sell your current 360 and add a sizable amount of cash to that for a CS. No doubt it would be amazing for a short time, but I believe the honeymoon phase would be shorter than you think. You’ve also completely gone through your current car from a maintenance standpoint-you know all of its dirty secrets. I would keep the 360 and dive into a project car for a while. People LOVE “project car” content (not to mention with your cinematography). You’ll probably grow the channel enough during that period to keep your 360 and also buy something else (430 Scud with a 6-speed..?, 458…?). We love you regardless mate, Cheers!
I have got a 992 GT3 I can’t imagine myself letting that one go. I would with my other cars including a 296 GTB on a waiting list. I would say keep the GT3 it really is a remarkable machine unless you upgrade to the new RS if Porsche is willing to offer you an allocation! Good luck mate.
Hope you finally get a classic. Ever thought about a Fiat Dino? Beautiful Bertone design and same V6 Ferrari engine as the 206/246 Ferrari. But I would love to see you in a Alfa GT as well. I love those cars. Nice video.
Try the ghibli trofeo in place of the giulia qaudrifoglio. You’ll be getting a Ferrari v8, old school chassis and steering set up and a wonderful ride.
Very much appreciate this more 'chill' atmosphere and the on-point cinematographics as always, thank you. May I suggest, asking Tony and possibly with JLR in conjunction, to get your wife and the baby a car they can absolutely depend on, no matter what kind of shuffle you have going on in your 'STG RUclips Garage'. So a Jaguar E-PACE for instance. As Tony frequently has said on the podcast, lady drivers often enjoy, sitting up high in the driving position. So the objective being, your three family members, including Twiggy of course, have a reliable car they can drive in and at a moments notice, the car sits in your drive so to speak, regardless of you travelling to Down Under or on another road tripping adventure with the Porsche. Or any other RUclips related duties you might have, your wife's car is always there and ready to go. Before anything gets all a bit too confusing and perhaps, not as interesting for a longer video series (at least for me as a viewer). Here some ideas aimed to help you out Sam✌
Gorgeous car! I think the four seat ‘daily’ needs to be a Project 8…
I second that motion. Bite the bullet, Sam.
If you guys watched his latest cast, this is why jag is giving him some loaner cars, because he's waiting to get a p8
@@fredericoespinoza I am aware of this - I am an avid listener to the podcast!😅 But in this video he stated Alfa Giulia QV, M3 Touring or GTC4 Lusso as well as the P8, as potential options! But I think he should go for the jag!
Of course it will be the P8. 6 mins in and that thought pervades all others
@meowzer60 Why would anyone need to wait for a P8? All available models were all made, maybe by 2019.
I was close to buying a P8. Still think of that car nearly a year later. Quite special.
Would love a 'day in the life' of STG kinda video, would be cool to see everything that goes in to making the channel the success it is, the level of polish and finess you achieve in the content you produce.
I was working at the Jag test track last month and the gent in charge took me for a hot lap in a F Pace SVR. 140mph in the rain up both straights👍.
Let’s be honest Sam the car you really want is the project 8. I think as much as the challenge stradale is your unicorn the memories with the 360 and the hours you’ve put into it mean letting it go will be too hard. So I think you should keep the 360, GT3 get a project 8 and then potentially do a deal on the F Pace with Jaguar to keep Viki happy.

I love your honesty (a lot of RUclipsrs may have suggested they had bought the F Pace SVR) you have always been very upfront about whether a car has been loaned to you or bought, it’s why yours is the channel to go to for good honest content. On a side note nice to meet you at the Podium for the Behind the Glass Podcast yesterday👍🇬🇧
I love how you went from an RS6 daily which was "too much of a car" for a daily to a SVR. Love it.
I actually said this long ago in one of you're videos when u were lookin for a Daily Driver SUV That this is the best SUV that suits U.
Whatever you do. Keep the GT3. It is the best spec ever
I would go for a 964, looks the bomb and drives amazing. I drove a RS replica and loved the fact feedback and rawness of it
About the daily. I would go for a previous gen M3 comp, Gulia Quadrifoglio or a taycan
That supercharged V8 is the best thing about this machine 🔥🔥
What a car 😍😍congratulations Sam
Hi Sam. In my opinion, I think it would be really cool to buy a 360CS (which is also kinda a classic), but then buy an actual classic (which is in good reliable order and has 4 seats), which would also tick that box too. I think your current 360 is awesome ( I would love to own it), but with most things in life, we sometimes need a change...
I really love these chilled out and about videos!!!! Probably my favourite!
I say bite the bullet and get your dream car next year. A GTC4 Lusso would be a great daily because another Ferrari to be added and it's a V12.
Maybe longer term the SVR isn't the solution, but P400e + P8 or Giulia QV does offer a very nice pair
I have SVR. +2y Old kid.
And oldest gt3
Honestly I would not want p400. It is great car but SVR feels special and on 21” is very capable as family car for my wife and kid. Honestly it handle it well a bit more than 2 years already.
Wife just hate 22” so
W drive only 3 months on summer tires.
Kid love this car and acceleration already so without plan I rise petrolhead sadly.
Sam if you start the ad with “just quickly” then I am more inclined to skip it 😆 Haha sorry just some feedback
F pace SVR is one of the best SUVs. Great choice.
A fabulous car and had the opportunity to test drive one a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it ❤
M3 Touring surely has to fit the bill if you can get one
I would LOVE a Giulia QV as daily! Live your best life😊
GREAT CAR - well enjoy driving ours.
And Sam I did offer you this as a Drive the World option when you were 'down under' 🙂
Hope you and Vicki enjoy the drive.
Would love to see a Giulia on the channel. Their such lovely vehicles.

How about going to a classic car auction? Always love when Harry goes ❤
You already know what your having,
You are in a lucky and hard worked position to be able to have these conundrums in your life!
Get a Panamera Sport Turismo PHEV as a daily. The benefits of the massive backseat, massive boot and electric range for daily use, combined with the sportiness of a V6 or V8 in the front, make it the ultimate dad wagon. You’ll have no regrets.

Content idea!
You haven't gone over what camera gear and editing software you use in a while. Im obsessed with the quality that you produce. Would live to know how you pull it off.
Insane that they give you a SVR for free, such a privilege
JLR is in your heart and soul! Love it!
And it’s in the mind of all owners as they get their faulty JLR repaired. It’s the worst brand for build performance and quality. Just to say my cousin built and designed the JLR hill descent suspension. It’s still a rubbish brand IMO
@@shelloilukso cringe, what is it with weirdos like you lurking on videos of any JLR car just to parrot this **** over and over?
Still one of the best, if not the best looking SUV on the market (ignore Lamborghini Urus as crazy expensive). Loved mine but moved to Rangie now
Kudos for being honest about whose car it actually is!
You need a project 8. A day in the life video would be great. When you do the Australia BTG tour travel blogs would be amazing. Lastly, have another test drive of the mini electric, it’s a seriously good car, probably the best thing we’ve every bought, amazing to drive, cheap to run, ideal for a second car, 120-140 miles in summer, 110 in winter so for knocking around its ideal.

I'd sell the 360 now and hope for the possible market crash whether that's later this year or next to get a CS. Just sit and watch the market
The suggestions of Italian classics are my two dream cars! I believe you can create a similar performance Alfa Romeo 105 series coupe by buying one and getting your mechanic to install choice Alfaholics onto it. For a small runabout you can go for a Peugeot 208 (or for more space) a 2008, this can be either electric or petrol, that's what one of your friends have done.
For the classic I think you need a hot hatch, could even turn into the daily
Based on your description, I’d really suggest looking at one of these:
1. Porsche Taycan
2. Porsche Panamera
3. Audi E-Tron GT
Daily: project 8 or gtc4lusso
Electric car: Volvo ex30
We need an update on the GT3 - last I heard it was broken in the Porsche repair shop!
The SVR is a nice car. They do a version called Lister Stealth. Basically a Urus killer.
What ever you look at, we are behind you 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Hi Sam, for your classic and given you may need something more practical these days, have you considered a Ferrari 412i? awesome looking coupe, classic V12 and still reasonably attainable. Or maybe something potentially more reliable like a Mercedes 560SEC. Both understated baller coupes! DO IT!
Alphaholics GTA-R is one of my favorite cars. If you wouldn’t convert the Challenge to a manual I’d keep the car you have. The Scud with a manual is another one of my favorites
With the GTA-R, another option is to buy an Alfa Romeo 105 series GTV, and get your own mechanic to fit choise Alfaholics components over time.
I think either a gulia or a project 8 would be a perfect car.
I think Sam has access to innumerable luxury cars. He needs a classic Alfa to get him connected to real driving.
Who would daily a P8 now that they’re getting older and out of warranty?
The key with classics Sam, is to buy them from the owner/restorer, who has spent huge amounts of cash restoring to a mint condition, only to lose his shirt when selling on.
Doing it yourself, (unless you are supremely capable), is a non starter....look at the money TGE has had to spend on his 912 and Sport Targa. It can be a harsh lesson.

I think this TV show was a good bit before your time Sam so we can forgive you your lack of knowledge!
To my mind you already have a classic in the 360.....you seem to be duplicating....again.
Agree with everything.
Agreed. Unless you can do the work yourself you’ll lose your shirt on resale
Disagree with the comment that you will lose your shirt on renovation costs. Sam can trade the cost of improvements against free advertising & tax deductions. .
Sam , why not get Ratarossa to convert your 360 into Straddle spec if possible and do a series on the conversion ?
You can't offend anybody with regards to the Capri, the Capri is my kind of car. Ask me about the latest hypercar and you've completely lost me and yet we are both petrol heads Sam. What we can do is learn more about other types of cars which is such a fantastic experience!

Looks exactly like mine, except I kept the black 22 wheels from my 2020 that i traded back in for the new one. I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy it.

Just knew the F-Type replacement was going to have that supercharged 5litre👍, hopefully a Project 8, Challenge Stradale and the GT3 over the next year will make your working garage even more watchable 😉
GT3, Challenge Stradale,Project 8??? Sounds like a nice garage!!!
Straddle, fPqce SVR. Get rid of the GT3 then you can go for a good classic and an EV that Vicki can use when you aren’t in the FPace SVR. The FPace SVR is amazing value for money for what you get and slings absolutely amazing
Having watched for most of those ten years it would be a shame to see the 360 go however I completely get it and what a milestone! A difficult decision to know wether to convert the 360 and have a manual challenge stradale but it never feel truly authentic and selling the 360 for a challenge stradale that doesn’t have the connection you have with your current car. It’s a tough one!
Pretty amazing how successful you are with 1 video/week. With a new baby at home, I wouldn’t risk that for a 360 Strad. Quality of life is far more important. If you have passive income on the side to cover it, then absolutely go for it.
Keep the 360, you'll drive it and enjoy it more. Stradale won't use as much for fear of breaking.
That V8 rumble is nice nice, almost as good as the ML 6.3 one, congratulations on update from another father who was "forced" to move to SUV daily due to family update lol.
Buy a jaguar xf sport break.
There is something in installing the rear seats in the GT3. You don’t track it. So the extra weight probably doesn’t matter. Presumably there are companies that do it. Maybe you can borrow one and collab! Excellent video as usual.
These are slept on . Love the 1988 edition

You began doing that nearly ten years ago… I’m thinking the Challenge Stradale is in your future.
Aston Martin Rapide S AMR for the daily 4 door sports car.
Lovely to look at, fun car to do content with and Tony will get a few laughs from it also.
Fantastic new daily Sam. A lot more practical than the F type even though it’s a great car. But you still get the v8. What about an Alfa Remeo Gulia Quadrifoglio or the new M3 wagon.
What about watching the video before commenting 😅
He is getting a Project 8 , there you go !
LHD daily?...meh fails the first practicality test!
Great Video Sam 🎉 you could visit Harry in his garage for further, let’s say…, spiritual inspiration 😅 the UK doesn’t produce the best cars in the world but definitely has the greatest car channels for automotive enthusiasts ❤ 🇬🇧
A Taycan would fit the bill nicely 👌🏻
FF or Lusso, GT3 and some ev if you must.
Get on with the Stadale all ready 😀
You love that car. We the viewers do love it. And it is still a 360 so yeah. Id love for you to have one !
Loved this update and think the CS for the 10 Year anniversary is a very interesting idea. My gut feel, you won’t miss the Modena as much as you think once you start new adventures in the CS
Been waiting so long for the follow-up video to this one, I already have my own one now :)
I have a basic F Pace for similar reasons and it fits my requirements, perfectly. Not sure why it wouldn't work as a daily user. Why not spend less money and buy a MG BGT? As for the 3.0S, part of my fantasy garage, back in the day (although in black). Alongside it, would have been a Yamaha RD350LC. As for the Professionals, I thought it was a 2.0S in silver.
Your Modena is going to feel like 95% of a CS.. I think it would be silly to sell your current 360 and add a sizable amount of cash to that for a CS. No doubt it would be amazing for a short time, but I believe the honeymoon phase would be shorter than you think. You’ve also completely gone through your current car from a maintenance standpoint-you know all of its dirty secrets. I would keep the 360 and dive into a project car for a while. People LOVE “project car” content (not to mention with your cinematography). You’ll probably grow the channel enough during that period to keep your 360 and also buy something else (430 Scud with a 6-speed..?, 458…?). We love you regardless mate, Cheers!
I have got a 992 GT3 I can’t imagine myself letting that one go. I would with my other cars including a 296 GTB on a waiting list. I would say keep the GT3 it really is a remarkable machine unless you upgrade to the new RS if Porsche is willing to offer you an allocation! Good luck mate.
Love that the pros and cons list started with Aldous, then Vicki.... ;) Do it Sam; Project 8, CS, and a 308 GT4 :D
Hope you finally get a classic.
Ever thought about a Fiat Dino?
Beautiful Bertone design and same V6 Ferrari engine as the 206/246 Ferrari.
But I would love to see you in a Alfa GT as well.
I love those cars.
Nice video.
Oh yeah what a recommendation! I recently had the chance to go in one and it surprised me how fun and quick it was. Good shot!
I can't help but picture Tony laughing when you talk about getting a classic. I think it would be a good idea though
Are the seats comfortable for everyday use and for distances of 100 to 150 km or ( sit for 2 hours ) per day?
Try the ghibli trofeo in place of the giulia qaudrifoglio. You’ll be getting a Ferrari v8, old school chassis and steering set up and a wonderful ride.
An E500 is my dream.
The Ford Capri you saw was one of the cars driven by Body and Doyle on the Professionals. Wow that is a cool car.
Very much appreciate this more 'chill' atmosphere and the on-point cinematographics as always, thank you. May I suggest, asking Tony and possibly with JLR in conjunction, to get your wife and the baby a car they can absolutely depend on, no matter what kind of shuffle you have going on in your 'STG RUclips Garage'. So a Jaguar E-PACE for instance.
As Tony frequently has said on the podcast, lady drivers often enjoy, sitting up high in the driving position. So the objective being, your three family members, including Twiggy of course, have a reliable car they can drive in and at a moments notice, the car sits in your drive so to speak, regardless of you travelling to Down Under or on another road tripping adventure with the Porsche. Or any other RUclips related duties you might have, your wife's car is always there and ready to go.
Before anything gets all a bit too confusing and perhaps, not as interesting for a longer video series (at least for me as a viewer). Here some ideas aimed to help you out Sam✌
Change the X3 to an IX3. Keep the familiarity but embracing the electric
Ever thought about stripping it right back and getting a 1970s VW Beetle ? Fabulous project cars
M3 estate is definitely going to happen
