Your best ever work! I remember it from when I first saw it on telly; what an intro. I've also got your book as a birthday present and am really looking forward the section on the David Brown cars.
Great video , thank you. I love your books from your first to todays Aston Martin book. You seem more comfortable in front of the camera now. I could watch you all day.
Tough you were silent as The Stig, you surely have a lot to tell, and know how to do it. Quality videos and great production, subscribed and waiting for the next ones :) .
Been searching around quite a bit and here you are. I was wondering before how come a person with a VIP racing background like you doesn't have a RUclips channel. Subscribed!
Loving the content and it's so cool to see you interacting in the comments. I just had to chuckle about 0MPH at 4:30 :) If it's not a broken speedo, I'm betting you're 'keeping the miles off"
Great video. If you get to the eastern US, I would love to have you drive my mother's 1934 Packard Super Eight Coupe Roadster and compare it to her brother's 1936 4 1/2 litre Bentley Drop Head Coupe. Might be a fun video. American vs British 'sports cars'.
We have been starting to film more and build up some content to come very soon. We will be pushing the channel on some other channels soon and appreciate our subscribers spreading the word in the meantime! 🙂
Ben…….. do some more 🇬🇧🙂 My dream team to watch would be yourself, Alain de Cadenet and Jodie Kidd…….. sadly, following the demise of the wonderful Alain……. you’re going to have to up your game……. I will still watch Last of the Summer Tour, but they have descended into full farce…….. Harris is the only good thing attached to TopGear……. The best of the net is Harry Metcalfe, Car Pervert and JayEmm…… Tim and his Shmuseum drives me potty……… multiple financed hyperbole 😳………… duplication of types and constant chopping and changing, unlike Harry with his harem of old school sluts….. ❤ Just do more……… helmets, you’re better out than in 🏁🇬🇧
Ben would make an excellent James Bond. He has the looks, the charm, and he could do all his own driving stunts. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that he is also a crack shot with a Walther PPK. Well as much as anyone could be a crack shot with a tiny gun like that beyond ten meters. I'm trying to correlate the last four Bond movies with Ben outing himself as the Stig when he released his book. OK, I just took a moment to read Ben's Wikipedia page, and can now see he didn't need his reputation as the Stig to get an in with the movie people. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Collins_(racing_driver)
Ben, this is great. Similar vibe to Top Gear back around when you started. Feels comfy like an old pair of shoes. More please. 😊

Thank you - the DB years are great and his life journey was incredible, saving the country twice .>!!
Great video , thank you. I love your books from your first to todays Aston Martin book. You seem more comfortable in front of the camera now. I could watch you all day.
Getting there...! Thank you
As Commander Bond's stunt driver, Ben is technically James Bond...awesome.
Beautiful cars both of them. Aston's are simply sublime to look at and pretty good to drive and own.
Tough you were silent as The Stig, you surely have a lot to tell, and know how to do it. Quality videos and great production, subscribed and waiting for the next ones :) .
Jolly Good! Thank you for an enjoyable video. Aston Martin and James Bond are our heritage...
Nice one Ben, really enjoyed that. Loved the book as a kid, thanks for the history lesson 😍
Glad you enjoyed it! some funny stories in there had me LOL-ing during the interviews!
Wonderful. Quality
Well shot - that's what you get with the old dream team from Top Gear with Jim Wiseman & Co.
@@BenCollinsDrives Thanks for the additional information
ah so cool to know! thanks! another great video!
Thank you :)
When I watch, I feel like I’m watching Top Gear, but Ben Collins is the ONLY presenter haha

thank you! the more the merrier!!
Fantastic video! Would have sworn it was filmed in Florida :)
Beautiful car. Beautiful video.
we want more content Ben!

You get an American hell yeah! For this vid. Great content
Really great video, thanks!
I like that Vanquish a lot
My new favourite channel
This is pretty much old Top Gear but it’s manned by a mix of Jeremy, Richard, James and The Stig
Why is this channel not advertised enough? 😐
We have been starting to film more and build up some content to come very soon. We will be pushing the channel on some other channels soon and appreciate our subscribers spreading the word in the meantime! 🙂
Ben Collins should be the next James Bond.
Doing a great job ben good videos think you had a lot more knowledge than he did
Where was this filmed, this looks like Florida?
Nearly.. it was RAF Bentwaters in. Suffolk !! But agree it looks almost tropical
@@BenCollinsDrives oh wow!
What is your daily?
Land Rover Wolf defender (with some Arkonik TLC) - keeps it real
currently a dirty 997 Turbo - manual gen2 - keeps the cobwebs at bay!
So bizarre that these don’t have more views. The algorithm is screwing you somehow
💯 agreed!
So, why were the other 3 idiots centre stage then? 😂 Great motor jouranalistic segment 👌
❤❤❤
Aston Martins look and sound awesome. I'm not sure as to owning them, though.
The modern machines are pretty bomb proof - with the occasional savage which is essential ;)
@@BenCollinsDrives If the Stig says it, I'll take it as motor-gospel. Thanks for the reply.
Does anyone know the piece of music at the beginning?
got me there.. not a clue - will ask Wiseman but he'll probably say something unhelpful like "oh its from a library" - will ask
That Aston was also seen with Drake..... John Drake behind the wheel.
Bond drove a DB Mark III not a DB2/4 in Goldfinger.
Ben…….. do some more 🇬🇧🙂
