      Tbh their dealer network clearly doesn t do a good job and seems very thin, asked twice for an appointment and test drive on site and got no answer, 2nd attempt by phone felt hurried, ended with the promise they ll give back to me...3 months later, I m still waiting. Meanwhile Audi spams me with promo material and I m sure I ll get a card for my bday and the usual Christmas package and Porsche tells me, "oh you re interested in the Cayman refresh, no problem, feel free to tell us when you d like to pick up the car for a few days"...so ahm yeah well....

    My hat's off to you, I live in the city shown in the video. Finally someone who appreciates the mountain roads of Serra da Estrela. One of the most sublime roads to drive that I have found, you have it all, from tight sections, hairpins, sweeping corners, long straights... And that A110S, I agree, it's almost a crime it doesn't sell more. Also, cinematography is on point, beautiful shots!

      Obrigado Bernardo! I was going to ask where this was, but you’ve told me already. I’d already spotted Serra da Estrela on the map as a great place to visit. I just moved to Cascais, and looking for places to drive my Nissan GTR on quiet roads. What is the actual number of this road? Is it usually this quiet too? I agree, beautiful video and excellent review. I’m already a fan from Evo magazine.

      @Galkhar 4 года назад +9

      chillyfly mainly n338 and n339. Early in the morning is the best time to escape traffic, specially on weekends! Though I advise to explore them after winter, snow is already falling strong, and most days , when it rains or snows, the roads are closed off, because of the heavy fog (very thick and actually dangerous, you can’t see your hands in front of your face ). Hope you have fun exploring them, I certainly do in my little mx-5!

A sportscar that actually looks like a little cute car, not a bathtube on wheels or like a kitcar... and with a comfy suspension unlike Lotus... This car proves, you don't need 500, 600 hp and a big V12...

    Are you joking? My soul is applauding you for this masterpiece of a review. You keep stepping it up, I’m mind blown. The story, the script, the narrator and driver, the music, the production, the car and the location. This can not be praised enough. I feel breathless after watching this. Bravo, bravo, bravo! (Edit) Is it even fair to call this a review anymore? It is a piece of collaborative art.

    5 seconds into the shot of the second day is BANG. Holy crap that's got to be some of the best scenery I've ever seen. As far as the car is concerned, imagine it with a manual from the Honda CTR.
