This video is now 7 years old so I'm not expecting any response, but I just wanted to say that I've always had an interest in cars, but it was this channel and your wonderful enthusiasm and descriptive commentary that really turned my interest into a passion!
What I like about this is Harry makes the car normal. Most Bugatti videos are all "OMG, I hope I wreck the car and kill a thousand people in this unmanageable monster!!!" Harry just drives it around, pokes it through villages, zooms some twisties like he was... driving a car. Good on y', Harry.
Bugatti must really like Harry to let him drive a Vitesse for 1000 miles like a regular car! Thats certainly why i like his videos, always using amazing cars and putting then to the test in great adventures!
The M. M. is just the place to show off that car. Almost everyone who is participating is the exact demographic that they want to market to. In my opinion the Vitesse being the mechanical marvel that it is, ends up almost dead last in style, and spirit of the Mille Miglia.
Well, Cristian; this is what it looks like to see a man that put in his time in the trenches and is now reaping the benefits of having well-connected and wealthy friends who want to have ‘the most interesting man in Britain’ show off their cars.
Harry and Tiff, my two favorite presenters. They're the best at describing the actual qualities of a car, instead of rambling on about flappy paddles and boot-space. Harry, if you read this, please invite Tiff on a drive and post it up asap. I'd enjoy it if you both just romped around in a Honda S2000.
I believe this is my favorite video yet from your channel. The hand held camera and brutal noises from the Veyron make for a visceral experience!! Thanks Harry!
Remember driving around Tuscany - this very area in fact - in a Volvo V40 Turbo about two decades ago (around the time of the earthquake in Assisi). Would highly recommend it - the drive not the car!!
Sensational video Harry. Reminds me of the segment on Top Gear with the Bugatti. This had 1/1000 the budget, but was 1000x better. It put you there in the car, and that’s what a car video should do.
@@Chuck-gd9rr naaah. almost every brit ive ever talked to had some sort of british accent. taken from my experience (young) germans are the best at speaking english without any accent at all.
An amazing combination of speed, more of that than any other production-car! Ever! And comfort, heaps of that too. And, and a service-interval of 10,000mls!!! Like any ordinary car! Making it utterly fuss-free, unheard of even for a car with half this amount of power. Bauhaus 1930`s design outside, and retro "steam-punk" luxury perfection inside. Quite incredible that those qualities are combined in one car. A phenomenal combination. I very much doubt that any manufacturer will ever do anything like approach that.
Prowlin' through the Mille Miglia field in a Veyron Vitesse. Who could resist? I know you know it does not really fit, but you sir, did that just for us. It must have felt like having gone through a Time Tunnel. All those classic old cars.
9:58 the lightning quick 58-94 in just 4s with I'm guessing a high gear too. If the gear was lower, I can only imagine how many laws you would've broken haha! Stupidly crazy Bugatti are.
one of my first cars was a fifties VW in Munich with the small rear window. You learned to drive by leaning slightly forward for better visibility.Harry does the same here. The A posts on this car are not my cup of tea. (Porsche 914 removable roof is still the best).
what a fantastic video, I didnt know i could feel this jealous before. Doing the mile Miglia in a car that isn't even yours is way better than owning it. 14:11 holy shit the sound is glorious, plane like
back in the day when people actually drove long distances in the hypercars, don't see very many laF, p1, Chiron doing whole gumball 3000 like Enzo, CGT, SLR use to do... just ambling around Monaco & London high streets
Watching the Harry Mille videos in order, very cool. Not sure a Veyron is the best support vehicle. No Ferrari factory drive through for the Veyron! Love to see the Elan do the Mille Miglia though not sure if it qualifies.
For such an incredible machine you'd think they'd at least make the engine sound half decent. Compared to awesome sound of that BMW toward the end, no comparison.
Harry how have you managed to get younger with age? Are you sponsored by Clinique for men.... going back 5 years and you look older! Content is still just as good!
3:56 For all of you wonderful poor people who were appalled by the sinister and cynical way Bugatti chooses their customers, will be happy to know that Dr.Stefan Brungs, who our lovely host is referring to, has been fired from the position of Bugatti Marketing Director and currently serves in the position of General Manager for the Swiss division of Hilding Anders company, the mattresses and beds manufacturer.
It's no different to how Ferrari chose the owners of a limited edition Ferrari is it, Ferrari want you to have owned (or still own) a variety of there halo cars Bugatti want a certain net worth.
@@Bryan-fg3ey Ferrari wants costumers that are loyal to the brand, regardless of quantities and owning every model, there are quite a few stories of Ferrari declining cars to vary important/rich/relevant (ex Ferrari drivers, etc) in favour or true Ferrari enthusiasts that might had to scrap some coins to get that halo, but they always were not only faithful but fairly good costumers or friends.

I can honestly say that after watching this video a would never want a Veyron, the noise levels in that cabin are just ridiculous, what enjoyment can there be in that, none for me I'm afraid. I will now look down on those in a Veyron and think you're ego has ruined your decision making skills. Not for me. Great video as usual and a real insite into a car I will never be able to afford, but now I know if I could I wouldn't 😭

Tiff & Harry are my kind of people.
Hate Tiff.
tiff is god.
Dr Chunky Biscuit What possible reason could you have for hating Tiff? I know you are probably some bs troll, but just in case not I really wonder.
true
Tiff is a great racing driver, not a car expert. Harry isn't a racing driver but definitely a car expert.
Every time I watch one of Harry's video's, I have another item to add to my bucket list
Gonna need a big bucket.
Remember driving around Tuscany - this very area in fact - in a Volvo V40 Turbo about two decades ago (around the time of the earthquake in Assisi). Would highly recommend it - the drive not the car!!
Harry is fabulous - his boyish enthusiasm is addictive...
I like these cars. Indeed, I'm giving serious consideration to part exing my Peugeot 106d for one....
Bib The Boulder dont think youll get that far
Bib The Boulder Don’t let them low ball you on the trade in.
Feeling you Bib... ✊🏻
What colour will you have ? 😂
@@paulhiggins4007 Sadly the dealers valuation was a few million lower than I expected.....
Beautiful scenery...thanks Harry.

Absolute dream this Bugatti Veyron Grand Vitesse in kind of blue black. Very lucky Harry..Like this a lot! Impressive drive!
why so little views for an excellent vid
Only so many people can withstand the British accent.
Ironically, Brits are the only people that (usually) don’t have an accent when speaking English.
@@Chuck-gd9rr
naaah. almost every brit ive ever talked to had some sort of british accent.
taken from my experience (young) germans are the best at speaking english without any accent at all.
Not even Harry's brilliance is immune from the Tiff Needell effect.
Billionaire problems
I love the idea you can have the ownership experience, without the grief and expense of actually owning one.
13:25 it sounds amazing

To combine all this together means it weighs two tons of course, but I think that makes it all the better. "Planted" it certainly is!
Harry must be a super high profile man, to have access to such cars.. Very nice of you to show us them!
Love revisiting old Harry's Garage
Love this content so much, surprised I have not seen this before!
No matter how quickly an electric car can go, it will never arouse the passions like a performance petrol does.
What a lovely car and really enjoyed the video thanks.
Prowlin' through the Mille Miglia field in a Veyron Vitesse. Who could resist? I know you know it does not really fit,
but you sir, did that just for us. It must have felt like having gone through a Time Tunnel. All those classic old cars.
Sounds like darth vader scuba diving! Did like the comment about best steering for a VW group product...
Wow Tiff Needell!! I can tell from his voice, he is my one of my favourites. Wow he is a friend of Harry!!
I was in Pisa the day the MM rolled through in 2014. What a spectacle!
I like you're video's Harry, keep it up 👍
What an exciting video, a really good one Harry.
Beautiful car and beautiful scenery would love to drive around there
Gosh that engine sounds like a living breathing thing under heavy load. what a wonderful car
that unknown model BMW towards the end does make a nice sound.
9:58 the lightning quick 58-94 in just 4s with I'm guessing a high gear too. If the gear was lower, I can only imagine how many laws you would've broken haha! Stupidly crazy Bugatti are.
really nice glimpse into the race and the car
Harry, as you wrapped up the video in the dark, you looked really tired. Thanks for going through all of that for us. We appreciate it.
Fantastic ! Thank You !
And so what everytime when you want to put out the roof you have to call to the Buggati's headquarter for a personell to do that?
Very cool video thanks for sharing
I can't believe snobs hate on the Bugatti's engine note. It sounds like a crazy professor's evil machine! A symphony of awesome.
How Moss (and others) managed to average such a high speed over those roads in 1960s is incredible!
"Well that is odd if we're in the lead, how have we managed that?" - It's clearly down to the extra 200bhp from the high octane fuel Harry!
Really made me laugh when Tiff ran up to your Vitesse just as you were talking about him.
one of my first cars was a fifties VW in Munich with the small rear window. You learned to drive by leaning slightly forward for better visibility.Harry does the same here. The A posts on this car are not my cup of tea. (Porsche 914 removable roof is still the best).

id love to take my car down there ;-) great video harry, keep um coming
I would say the same thing but both my sports cars (Toyota MR2 and Porsche 911) have been sold :(
More power to you Harry!
Jeezus, all I can hear is just an orchestra of turbocompresser whine from that thing. Sounds like KITT from Knightrider. Very unique sound.
it sounds like a train, so smooth
Great video!
Hehe, filling up with 98 “otherwise we’ll lose two hundred horsepower”. Oh my, then it’s down to a mere thousand hp? Can’t have that!
i'll be sure to remember!
Great vid. Veyron sounds swishy
RIP Stirling Moss
I've always had fun with small cars...this looks like fun
All 'FINE & DANDY' it seems, apart from the noise.
The fiat 500 had 500 , 600 and 750 cc motors :) S'Marino is an independent State, a financial Paradise
with low tax. :)
Veyron is like Hulk dressed in a suit
One of the nice things about Harry is that he does not have an ego
There he is! Tiff ya legend. (its like being around the best of old friends, and iv never even met these people lol)
Loved it harry
back in the day when people actually drove long distances in the hypercars, don't see very many laF, p1, Chiron doing whole gumball 3000 like Enzo, CGT, SLR use to do... just ambling around Monaco & London high streets
Love your videos. You should invest in a wireless microphone to pin to your collar and ditch the camera mics.
tiff, harry and vic for top gear what a show that would be.
Ian Miller 2 of them have already done top gear. 2 of them are the reason we got new top gear.
Watching the Harry Mille videos in order, very cool. Not sure a Veyron is the best support vehicle. No Ferrari factory drive through for the Veyron! Love to see the Elan do the Mille Miglia though not sure if it qualifies.
UUUUUUUhhhg!!!!!!!! I LOVE your videos :D

Very nice channel Harry,keep it up :o)
You and Tiff should do a tv show together !
1.7 mill and you get an umbrella for a roof .If MG or any other lesser car mark come out with that they would have the s#it ripped out of them
Was I the only one who was holding his breath when he drove through that arch at 12:37? Must've been quite narrow.
I wish Tiff would present Top Gear again.
LOL, Ferrari is intimidated by the Bugatti.
13:22 wow that's awesome
If you get a gimbal for your mobile/camera it'll look so much greater for your driving shots to avoid so much shake
When they started screaming i was like o shyt 😭😭
14:05 the fun begins...
What a car!

On his CV it says - You make your bed and you gotta lie on it.
Media Veyron > News Chopper. :D
I love your volkswagen Harry
I know this was uploaded almost 2 years ago & I don't think anyone will be responding to this but I have to ask.
What have been the 4 cars that Mr.Metcalfe has gone to the Mille Miglia with?
2010-????
2011-Ferrari 550 Barchetta
2012-Alfa Romeo
2013-Bugatti Veyron Vitesse
Thank you to anyone who can answer this.
I did 2010 Mille Miglia in a Jaguar C-Type but this was before we did videos. Story appeared in evo Magazine. Thanks for watching..
Holy shit, 2 years old and he responded. That is dedication Harry.
Thank you so much for the response. Yeah Jaguar designs are great. Shame about the C-X75 not going into production.
Ah well Harry it looks as if i'm not going to get an invitation into the Bugatti customers club then ?
That sounds like a fire breathing dragon. A real animal, and you wonder why your always the first car. 🤣
that whiny noise in the Veyron would drive me nuts! Dont care how good it was ...
Sounds great!
What fun!
The scream
Some of the drivers don't seem to worry much about crossing the centreline.
I guess the van and man is included in the purchase price to carry the roof when you buy one.
If my Veyron didn't come with at least two slaves, I would be pretty disgusted.
What is a 1970's MGB doing in the Mille Miglia?
Did u check the ztls
I can honestly say that after watching this video a would never want a Veyron, the noise levels in that cabin are just ridiculous, what enjoyment can there be in that, none for me I'm afraid.
I will now look down on those in a Veyron and think you're ego has ruined your decision making skills.
Not for me.
Great video as usual and a real insite into a car I will never be able to afford, but now I know if I could I wouldn't 😭
They had the roof off for half the video....
It sounds like, what I imagine sitting inside of a jet engine sounds like
More like working in a steel factory.
what's this "EVO TV" of which Mr. Metcalfe speaks?
Evo magazine
@@barrybritcher right. But Evo >>TV
How outrageous is that Veyron !
When you hit the like button before you have even watched it 😂👍🏻
Love the two of these guys, both Harry and Tiff.
11:23 Laurel & Hardy.
Used to lust after a triumph vitesse...
OOH LOVELY!
TIFF Needell! Fantastic. I guess HARRY being the kind of Aristo that he is, is likely to be pals with some legends!
must be difficult to follow behind this FIAT 1100 Coupe from 1947 with 40 something hp when the Bugatti has over thousand of them .
Bugattis are like boats: It's best when driving someone else's.
TIFF!
I suspect more people have reviewed the Bugattis then actually own one.
