"it's the car for this trip" I hear you Tim and fully agree, Ben must be burning the midnight oil if he is editing,because it's gone up a step and makes the videos better than ever.
You're right. This is the perfect car for grand touring. I've been a fan of Aston Martin since I saw Goldfinger when I was 10 years old. (I bet everyone loves AM because of Bond.)
THIS is great editing! The best I've seen since last year's Fuel Faction on this channel. The music transitions perfectly from montage to dialogue and vice versa. Beautiful drone shots too.
There are cars that have better stats, that are faster. There are cars that people might consider better even for this drive, but nothing quite approaches the passion that is Aston Martin. And, that sound.
ngtflyer In my opinion Ferrari tops Aston Martin in speed, stats, sounds and even in passion. But you might be right about the seats. I also have never driven neither of the cars so I really cant tell you about the driving.
Yep. Starting at Marmorera Dam, then Julierpass where he stopped shortly before Silvaplana. Then heading SW towards Italy down Malojapass (not really covered in the video but an even more amazing road IMHO the road winding almost vertically). The road along Lake Como is beautiful but goes through many long, dark and dirty tunnels without proper ventilation (driving along Lake Lugano or Lake Maggiore is nicer). Not sure about the place where they stopped.
Shmee150, Awsome videos and a really genuine, nice way of presenting. To drop the rear quarter windows you pull back the roof switch and hold until its movement is complete, then release and pull back and release one more time and the rear quarters will drop. toggle again and they will go up.
Oh Ben you drone flying and editing hero! Loving what you guys are doing with video now....amazing! Content was already good, but this is exactly what the channel needed. What a breath of fresh air
I know this isn't a travel channel, but I always enjoy the sites you visit in the EU... regardless of the car being driven. Excellent work w exposures in this vid... I haven't seen a trip to wales or Scotland, though. I bet there are some glorious roads there as well. Thanks for sharing.
Great video, IMO your best in a while! You nailed the audio, the sound of that exhaust is wonderful, I'm not a huge fan of Aston's but I agree with your on the sound of their V12.
Those roads look great ! And the drone shots of the car are brilliant , so nice lovely colour. Keep up the great work shmee thanks for posting such great content
Hi Tim, I'm delighted that you are enjoying your Vanquish. I have recently had to sell my coupe due to business reasons and (for now) replaced it with a C63s Coupe, which is very nice, but, its not an Aston! The speakers on the dash which rise are actually microphones and not tweeters. They "assess" the interior environment for the Beo Sound System's surround sound and work out where to send what to which part of the cabin at any given time. Oh, and the B&O system is standard on the Vanquish, and optional on other models. With regards to your rear side windows, as I said I had a Coupe, but I've also owned an SL with a similar set up. To make them go down whilst the roof is up, try pressing the down button again, when the door window is already down, and to close them, pull the window button again when the door window is closed. I hope that makes sense! Have a safe trip sir, enjoy the Vanquish, and keep up the great content, your vids are my saviour of the dreaded Soaps!
Can't wait to drive these roads later in the year. Won't be driving anything as exotic as a Vanquish convertible but it'll still be fun and breathtaking by the look of things.
Wow! Quality of your videos has really improved recently (great that you added some drone shots)! Please keep up the great work! To those of you, who don't like his videos and dislike them for no reason: 1. Are you really complaining about FREE content? 2. Achieve what he has achieved and make it better. 3. Stop bitching around and just don't watch his videos.
I saw Lugano pass by on the signs, did you also go through there? I've been there in the summer and the city, the lake and the surroundings are absolutely beautiful. If you get the chance, you should certainly check it out.
I really love your video's, so keep going! Car is just aewsome, if i would buy some day a perfect road trip GT car, i would by same too... and the blue wrap is fantastic!
Hey! I'm from Cincinnati, Ohio, and honestly when I get off work I look forward to seeing your videos on your trip, or videos period. I've been following u since u took a ride in the Ferrari 599XX Evolution(which is my favorite car of all-time) so yeah we go way back! lol. This is the first time I've commented ever, dnt knw why, but I felt it was finally decided to say something. I also love Austin Martins as well. can wait till u get your Mercedes coupe .. that car is sick! well keep filming and enjoy the rest of your trip!
carbon badge does look quite smart. only one Ming blue w ivory interior in north America for sale.. now that DBS is taking orders that's a collectors classic.
If you were wondering why I added the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante Carbon Edition to the fleet, here's your answer!
Shmee150 #shmeefleet
Shmee150 are you going to test drive the vanquish s ?
I've not driven one yet but now I've done a few thousand in the 'regular' Vanquish it would be very interesting to compare
Shmee150 are you going to take the gt8 in Monaco ?
No plans for it to come to Monaco
"it's the car for this trip" I hear you Tim and fully agree,
Ben must be burning the midnight oil if he is editing,because it's gone up a step and makes the videos better than ever.
He's working so hard but I really appreciate it and glad you guys do too
You're right. This is the perfect car for grand touring. I've been a fan of Aston Martin since I saw Goldfinger when I was 10 years old. (I bet everyone loves AM because of Bond.)
What a delight Tim the sound of the Vanquish is utterly utterly amazing, thanks for sharing Shmee !
The way it looks and the way it sounds are what make that car so emotional.
THIS is great editing! The best I've seen since last year's Fuel Faction on this channel. The music transitions perfectly from montage to dialogue and vice versa. Beautiful drone shots too.
F...n beautiful !!! Impossible to explain how beautifully this car looks. A Gem!
There are cars that have better stats, that are faster. There are cars that people might consider better even for this drive, but nothing quite approaches the passion that is Aston Martin.
And, that sound.
You nailed it!
ngtflyer In my opinion Ferrari tops Aston Martin in speed, stats, sounds and even in passion. But you might be right about the seats. I also have never driven neither of the cars so I really cant tell you about the driving.
ngtflyer And Im not trying to start any bullshit here
Your videos are getting better and better. Pure, simple, artistic and beautiful. Good job with this new video style, Shmee :)
I'm a fairly new subscriber to your channel. But FYI your content seems really well made and proffessional so thumbs up for you dude.
Can I just say that intro montage was simply amazing, keep up the good content! :D
This is why the Aston Martin Vanquish is my favourite car ever!!!
The Julierpass and Malojapass are incredible! And even better in an Aston!
Beautiful car and beautiful video. Just waiting for this car nd the LT to hit monaco. 👍
You should tell us what all the roads you are driving on are called. This looks like a beatilful one
I think it was the "Julier Pass" near St. Moritz. But you're right, it should have been mentioned at least.
Yep. Starting at Marmorera Dam, then Julierpass where he stopped shortly before Silvaplana.
Then heading SW towards Italy down Malojapass (not really covered in the video but an even more amazing road IMHO the road winding almost vertically). The road along Lake Como is beautiful but goes through many long, dark and dirty tunnels without proper ventilation (driving along Lake Lugano or Lake Maggiore is nicer). Not sure about the place where they stopped.
I'm so glad you bought it!
You sneaky geeky bugger with the 13:37 once more. 😄
Stunning visuals, mate, really upping your game here! And what a car, wow, just love it! 😎👌
Amazing footage Schmee. You've stepped up your game since your earlier videos.
Wow Shmee, you stepped up the game with Filming and editing !
Love the new Style
Keep up the vids Shmee so glad I subscribed to one of the best channels. 1M subscribers imminent
I noticed that your not far off a million subscribers, congratulations Tim!
Also your vanquish is so cool.
Great video Shmee...really liking them latelyl
Awesome! The POWER of British Sporty Luxury Engineering!
Shmee150, Awsome videos and a really genuine, nice way of presenting.

shmee thank you for the consistent and awesome uploads.
My pleasure, thanks for watching them! Daily videos isn't easy so we appreciate the support
Oh Ben you drone flying and editing hero! Loving what you guys are doing with video now....amazing! Content was already good, but this is exactly what the channel needed. What a breath of fresh air
Amazing drone shot again! And I love the car.
Awesome content schmee!
Looks like your having a great time!
Loved the video. Really love these tours. Roads are awesome and the sound this car makes is just amazing
Great car, great video! Fantastic filming and editing! thanks for the content
I know this isn't a travel channel, but I always enjoy the sites you visit in the EU... regardless of the car being driven. Excellent work w exposures in this vid... I haven't seen a trip to wales or Scotland, though. I bet there are some glorious roads there as well. Thanks for sharing.

Great video, IMO your best in a while! You nailed the audio, the sound of that exhaust is wonderful, I'm not a huge fan of Aston's but I agree with your on the sound of their V12.

Lovely car! Awesome place you got there kind Sir! Thanks for shareing!
Insane sound! That V12 sound is Beautiful!

Nice drone shots....thx shmee!
nice drone shots too =) those roads are nice but also tricky in winter conditions =)
Nailed that drone footage guys!
Just loving these videos thanks Shmee
The overhead fly-by drone shots are awesome!
Aston Martin and McLaren are my two favourite car manufacturers so different yet strangely similar, quite envious, hope you have a good trip.

Wow, great info, thank you very much!
The speakers are in fact acoustic lenses, not microphones, and will ensure that the sound is spreaded evenly around the cabin.
This is the kind of videos i enjoy watching, Just love the drone work you guys are doing. Keep up the good work.
And keep enjoying your roadtrips!
THIS is Why I am subscribed to your channel!
Can't wait to drive these roads later in the year. Won't be driving anything as exotic as a Vanquish convertible but it'll still be fun and breathtaking by the look of things.
Keep the Aston and great editing coming!
The views from the drone look wonderful, just a great video I love it :)
Great video, Shmee :-) as always! Greetings from Italy :-) - R
Production values and filming 👍
Tim was that the Stelvio Pass ?
Lake Como is stunning! spent a very hot July afternoon on its shores and then stayed in Bormio.
I absolutley love your Aston Martins Tim!
Hey shmee thanks for the Videos every day is One coming very good keep up the very good Content
great video shmee.. keep up the good work..
Never put the roof up unless the storm has a name.(Turn up the heater). Nice drone work. Need more of it.
Tim, I compliment you on reducing the number of Americanisms and substituting more imaginative adjectives. It's a delight.
hey shmee, you are pulling off nice camera tricks from your sleeves.What is it VODKA?:P
Wow! Quality of your videos has really improved recently (great that you added some drone shots)! Please keep up the great work!
To those of you, who don't like his videos and dislike them for no reason:
1. Are you really complaining about FREE content?

Nicely made video. The Volante is ok too. Haha. Ben's editing to really great.
The editing is insane!!
What a stunning looking car! Love it!
love the camera work man.
You should add a Volvo V40 T5 CARBON EDITION!
That could be a pretty sweet addition
I like it Shmee but I wanted to ask you which are its running costs if you want to use it daily?
I haven't sat down to work it out of course but it's definitely a lot more fuel efficient than my other cars of this nature
The V12 is just music into my ears, really starting to love this car
Beautiful work!
Nice video.....but.... the vids from James, Sam, Paul and Seb in Monaco are amazing at the minute.
Yes and they are all uploading the same thing whereas I prefer to create more unique content.
Thats true but the Super car spotter thing from all the different angles was really good. Shame you weren't in the mix there too!
It's been done before though, I was involved instead of JWW but to be honest making duplicated content isn't my thing so over to them if they so wish.
Shmee150 I see your point on the duplicate content thing as their journey down was a bit samey.
Shmee150 oooooohhhhhh
I saw Lugano pass by on the signs, did you also go through there? I've been there in the summer and the city, the lake and the surroundings are absolutely beautiful. If you get the chance, you should certainly check it out.
It's a stunning place, but I prefer not to spend too much time driving in Switzerland because of how strict the rules are
very well done! I thought it can't do anything! proud of it choice!
I really love your video's, so keep going! Car is just aewsome, if i would buy some day a perfect road trip GT car, i would by same too... and the blue wrap is fantastic!
Despite the fact that I love the other vloggers Monaco videos, your videos are a fresh air breath.

The Vanquish looks and sounds amazing but all the features you showed made me a lot more impressed with it
I'm lucky to live next to the Aston Workshop and I get to see a few nice cars regularly, but combine that with your videos and damn I NEED one!
Because it's absolutely beautiful!
THIS is Why I subscribed to your channel! :-)
Thanks!!
Nice Aston S, I really enjoy these video's of your euro-trip. Cheer's
the editing is soooo good
in love with the speakers
Back to Black! Back to Black! Back to Black!
BenzeneBen is dropping fire this week!!

THANKS , TIM AND CREW
Can you make a video giving a full tour of the Aston Martin Vanquish
Love the vanquish! Such a perfect GT car
It really is an amazing car!!
wooow totally love this video!
Tim, do you think lake Como and the driving roads surrounding it would be fun to drive in something a lot less exotic like my MK4 golf for instance?
Yup definitely, but make sure to find some time to drive them, because it can be busy over there.
I think you realy becomeing a top gear presenter in good way. Hope for the best for you
carbon badge does look quite smart. only one Ming blue w ivory interior in north America for sale.. now that DBS is taking orders that's a collectors classic.
Drift the Vanquish 6:14 😂
It seems very safe to do so there 😉
The Vanquish with black badges is beautiful
hate the badges not elegent like the car is
Love the vanquish, stunning car
the drone shots are a massive upgrade for your content!
By far the vanquish volante it's my favorite car of your flet Tim amazing cheers
awesome vid as always! i just want to ask where do you get the background music?
Great video quality
At 3:41 look at the. view..This is why we call Benzene the best...for his innovative skills in video shooting.!

Amazing car! We have the Vanquish Volante Q edition which is insane!
