    No power steering, no electric boot, no bonnet, this car makes me think of 1950s italian racing cars. Absolutely fantastic!

    Great video Sam. Loving the camera quality man, makes you different from all the others

    The fake bonnet is designed for cheaper fixing. If you dent your front bumper or your wheel arch, then you don't need to change tge whole front of the car, only the damaged part.

    I've got to stop and say, Sam. Your channel has flourished over the last 6 months. The camera quality is astonishing, the content is mind blowing, your knowledge is deep and your personality suits this type of content so well. Thank you for producing some of the best free content on RUclips; you will go far on this website.

      +Jack Shepherdson Thanks so much mate, really appreciate it! Glad you are enjoying the content - i enjoy making it!

    • @jackshepherdson
      @jackshepherdson 9 лет назад

      +Seen Through Glass good to know. While I'm here, do you know why alfa decided to weld the bonnet shut? Is there something under it that stopped them putting the boot in?

      +Seen Through Glass there´s a nice remap by pogea racing, i think it`s up to 320hp or something like that and a guy here in germany runs with it. 3.9sec 0-60mph that`s so sick!But stock is enough i think!
      Between, loving your golden rims..reminds me to scuderia and speciale!

  • @Sameer15557
    @Sameer15557 9 лет назад +4

    The gold colour rims seem to be pretty cool, but in my opinion if you could get them to be grey, black, some where in between there it'd suit the car more. Otherwise great videos and I hope your channel grows real big!

    • @seenthroughglass

    I'm an Alfa 4c owner, and the front bonnet is not fake. It has wiring in the front. The mechanics take that off and put it on the wall when they work on the car. Also the trunk is not bad at all, I have put over $100 worth of groceries in the back. It's more spacious than it looks.

  • @jarremenzies

    The bonnet is not fake. Only it contains non user serviceable parts of the car (radiator, suspension etc), except the windscreen washer that is. If you must, there is a video by Book Autowerks on RUclips (Alfa 4C Hood Removal).
    Don’t, however, do this!
    That’s for everyone else, as I know you sold yours! Why........???

    @fkporsche1 9 лет назад

    Are you talking about film on your body paint? I saw scuff marks on your door interior panel. It looks like your shoe marks. As I am being very careful t time, I still can't avoid not kicking my door interior door panel(where usually a little behind the door speakers location. And I used the GT3RS only in some occasion. I know you live in a big city and a busy guy. Keep a few nice micro fiber towels and a bottle spot clean spray and a bottle interior dressing would help.

    • @seenthroughglass
      @seenthroughglass  9 лет назад

      +Frank Kwok The marks come straight out with a wash...the car was just dirty - i think you were seeing dirt rather than scuffs

    • @fkporsche1
      @fkporsche1 9 лет назад

      +Seen Through Glass haha.. I hope so.. It would be heart broken for you. Tip note: use a gentle approach, You could avoid dirt and scuff if you ask your guest enter your 4c with bare foot.

    @MrJochemJochem 9 лет назад +1

    What bothers me a lot in these kind of video's. Is that you're 'complaining' about stuff that makes it a true drivers cars.
    No powersteering? Exactly, that's so you have way more feeling of what the car is doing.
    No pop up cilinders for the bonnet? Alfa's breaking down is something of the past. Nowadays the engine does vroom and that is it.
    And no room for shopping? Wait, was that you saying that or your girlfriend.
    But I am done bitching about this video. You have some great content. And actually... I'm kind of loving the 4c more than a lotus elise (which is my true dreamcar...)

    • @seenthroughglass
      @seenthroughglass  9 лет назад +2

      +Jochem Kanters Haha please always remember that my videos are mainly based on sarcasm or a bit of tongue and cheek humour. To come back to you on some points, I love the power steering - if you watch my review of the car you will hear me talk about how amazing the feeling and precise steering it gives you. I just know a lot of people are surprised when a modern car has no power steering. With the boot, i was just pointing out that it has a latch rather than pneumatic system like most modern cars and regarding the shopping, people for some reason always ask how big the boot is. As you can see, i hardly ever but anything in it haha. I use it as more of a rubbish bin than a boot. And I wish I had a girlfriend who could complain about the car! haha. Anyway, appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!! I just didn't want you to think I was hating on my own car!!

    • @MrJochemJochem

      Take care, everything is going to be allright.
