[@dash-ryan]

Maybe replace the X3 with a Cayenne GT, if you can swing it, and bring the family along! Tim already has a Ferrari Purosangue on the way and I can only imagine how his viewership will explode when that shows up. So how about something along the lines of the Lotus Eletre? It's something different and performance-oriented that might drive views. But being a petrol-head, not sure it will be your thing, although it would certainly be an adventure building content with an Eletre.

[@heshf]

Is that a Uniqlo gilet?

[@mattr8904]

The logical move would be a F-Pace SVR. 🤔 💯

[@maxreimann6734]

Still my favorite car channel. It feels really authentic, like I'm just out for a drive and some coffee with a friend. Thanks for all that you do, Sam.

[@sendivranasinghe2301]

Would agree with u

[@leotac5737]

Exactly!

[@Leo-ii6qm]

Agree

[@Oetti]

Without question!!!

[@luzkyhal]

Spot on! 🎉

[@jamiemcalonan3804]

How this channel doesn't have a million subscribers is beyond me. Great work Sam as alway

[@21sled]

Because his taste in cars is garbage and has old beat up shit boxes and even when he buys a new car he specs it like a 70 yr old man

[@ruyldev8556]

Sam's video style isn't as flashy as others. Also his taste in cars and what to do with them is rather different from the other big Automotive KZbinrs.. So many do mods, turbo this, wide body that or wrap this and that... Which he seems to generally not favor, are the more popular types of car videos that many people tend to gravitate to.

[@benjamin7114]

He talks too much. Still good though.

[@E92M3Guy]

Nobody does these euro roadtrip videos quite like you Sam, the vista's and the edits are just on point and stand re watching over and over just like Harrys Garage. You've done the RS6 how about the M3 touring Joe achilles spec. Would that fill the family criteria. 👍 👏

[@gordonsimpson3235]

....but the M3 Touring is such a obvious (default) choice....just following the herd.

[@lewisk112]

Should replace the F Type and go for an M8 GC or even an M5 Comp. Both would offer ultimate practicality and would easily fit into a European road trip. M3’s have been done on YT but who’s got an M8 Gran Coupe? Nobody!

[@SpontaneousEvolution]

Lotta respect for Tim for using his cars. Probably uses his best cars more than any other KZbinr.

[@cliffbarr1993]

Sunday morning and coffee with Sam.

[@timbonfield3589]

Shmee is an absolute machine, no idea how he manages the amount of content he does and still have time for a life, other business interests, even personal health. He is reaping the rewards and all the luck to him.

[@johnsim3722]

Shmee's SF90 with a roof box? He's just gone way up in my estimations! Seems far more natural on your videos too, relaxed even. The F-Type is a brilliant car, and given that Theirry Bollore has all but killed off the brand, might be one to pack away and keep as one of the last great Jaguars. That engine alone is a legend...

[@richardkennett4086]

Sam, love the content and the production and sincerity and is much admired. It's great to share all these trips and that is just what you guys do. Its a funny one when any of you guys starting talking about re-arranging your garage. You have to remember that most families have two cars. His and hers, and most work as hard as they can. Survival in tough times for many through these times for many is very tough. Your experiences and those of your peers like Tim are amazing for us all to share. I have been a Petrolhead since I was about 7. In those days (the 70's), my fix was going off on my bike to the local car dealers and picking up every new car information pack I could get my little hands on. The best one I had in those days was a Jaguar XJS it was beautiful, the car and the pack. Back to on-screen content, I was amazed when Top Gear first appeared on BBC2. Very different from the Clarkson and co era! It was a real consumer advice show about cars. Today, we almost don't need to drive or buy all these cars because we experience it here. I have been fortunate over the recent years to drive and own as everyday cars a 911 targa and a Taycan. But today I am nowhere near wanting to be a constant slave to the car makers. So I will save my next special car for some time in the future. You don't have to justify any of your choices of car and its great you share them as you do, but even your good ladies' X3 M40d is out of reach of so many. So it's good that people don't feel the pressure to try to keep up with you guys. I bought a 9 year 135i Convertable after driving a 1M recently. The 1M was £50K, the 135i with 50k on the clock with full-service history and immaculate was £7K. Both cars are amazing fun. The ironic thing in the 135i is almost as quick as the 911 and the sound is very similar. The point is you can enjoy driving amazing cars on any budget, and there are still a few bargains out there. I would love to see what the first EV you buy will be, especially living in London. Surely a Macan EV would be perfect. Performance and Practicality with the right image too. Looking forward to the coverage from the Ice meet in Switzerland (will there be any Ice?).

[@Abercon25]

Top comment sir 👐🏾

[@bernardoosorio9614]

Great video Sam! Taking the 360 to Iceland would be one of the craziest roadtrips ever!

[@xAdi420]

A GTC4Lusso would be an amazing replacement for the F-Type but it is considerably more expensive

[@Carreraboy911]

He can buy it from Shmee, I think Tim is done with it

[@julianadams2206]

Awesome video Sam. Love the content with the F Type. So refreshing as it is a car people can actually do out and buy without having to be in the dealers special customer book (unlike other brands). Love Tim’s roof box. It looks amazing on his SF90. F Type replacement has to be an F Pace SVR. 🙏

[@CAB_18]

Nothing better then when 2 of my favourite automotive youtubers meet up. Love these kind of videos! Great to see the Jag again, brilliant car! 😃

[@kayne8290]

Sam is killing these euro road trip videos, best in the business!Literally fells like I’m along for the ride and is just overall a good vibe 👏

[@capcohan931]

Tim and Sam one of the few KZbinrs that actually drive their cars and take them out on proper roadtrips frequently.

[@James_Farmer]

I think you should take the Modena to the Arctic Circle on the next big trip - specifically the Lofoten islands. Denmark, Sweden and Norway have some of the most incredible roads and untouched landscapes, and seeing the midnight sun in the middle of summer is amazing too!

[@capcohan931]

I love these kind of videos from you. A good road trip, updates on your cars, future plans, and catching up with fellow KZbinr friends. What a lovely video.

[@87plank]

Wooow Sam, this must be your greatest production up to date ! The opening, then your great monologue that screams the passion for this particular car. You top this all of with these fantastic old shots with your pre owned F-types. I loved this one !

[@markh6384]

Enjoyed the content as ever, perhaps the F-Type is to be replaced with an F-Pace (SVR?). Love the fact that Tim has put a roof box on the SF90, I'd love to do the same with a V12 Lusso if I could!

[@jamiegoddard1899]

I think it’s definitely time for Sam to trade up to an F-Pace SVR. It replaces both the F-Type and the X3 plus leaves some extra wedge to put towards a 360CS?

[@LiqdPT]

Funny thing is that Tim has a Lusso, but elected to do the trip in the SF90 and add the roof box for the hell of it.

[@mdrz]

Im actually wondering if a project 8 would be better

[@antonispapakonstantinou1018]

I don’t know how , but you always find a way to put a smile on my face when I see your videos. They have something so authentic. Have you considered a road trip to Nordkapp with the 360?

[@scottish2057]

1:20 shmee's SF90

[@LivetoDriveUK]

Sam is the Ferrari 360 and the Ferrari 360 is Sam. You and the 360 are simply destined to grow old together.

[@davidbillberg2203]

Good that you're driving your F-Type R!

[@strawdemindset]

Euro trip? Meet up with Shmee?? I’m getting nostalgic vybes

[@martinboulden4388]

I am not a fan of F Types but you bought this car with your heart and the colour is. incredible. The best looking F Type I have seen. This is also one of your best videos after your trip around the Globe ! ❤

Have you not seen it in French Racing Blue!!! Much more unique colour than boring brown! lol

Wow a rare Anna bird spotting! Fantastic surprise. New baby = more extended road trips. Perfectly understandable. Love the content as always

[@AdyWalter]

Norway in autumn for the 360 would be epic. All the bridges, the scenery, the colours 👌🏻

[@JellyLancelot]

Amazing video as always Sam, so genuine and well produced! Nice to see Shmee in a more relaxed setting too. Perhaps swap out the Beamer and the Jag for an F-Pace SVR? I do love the fact that you have teh ability to class cars as a necessary business expenditure, don't we all wish we could do the same! Hahah

[@jcorreiauk]

I used to take my car into mainland at least 3x a month for the weekend when I had the energy for it. Lots of memories were made with family and friends while doing so, nowadays I feel lazy and do that occasionally as I got older so if you have the chance to enjoy those road trips into Europe, go and seize the moment.

[@mentonish]

It’s nice to see all you guys have winter tyres, in France this is obligatoire when visiting winter resorts, even with the high temps

[@stephenlane9168]

Please keep your F type if you can Sam. I love it. Great spec. Very unique. 👌👏

[@ekrano]

Production quality always on point. Nice sequence @11:10.

You should bring the 360 to one of the contries you didnt get to fully explore on drive the world! Also the jag rumble over the music was amazing Good video Sam!

[@noahford5426]

your GT3 Spec has grown on me a lot. that green out in the daylight is beautiful!

[@Agi_.]

I think the new m3 touring would be a great addition to the channel. Not only does it tick every box for you, but it is also super sporty and quick. Would really love to see that on the channel.

[@ThisiscoolGAMES]

The only reason I look forward to Sunday right HERE (outside of F1 races) This is 🆒

[@BondTheOGYT]

Love these style of vids and with Tim in it as well is nostalgic to the vids years ago

Looking forward to the next vids :)

[@helmetculture]

Sam take the 360 to Tremblant in Canada. Do it when F1 is in Canada. Epic.

[@AmadeusPosavec0202]

Sam, you should send the 360 on a boat across the Atlantic. LA, Miami, NYC

[@jamespettitt9213]

Nice to see the jag!.., how about keep the 360, leave the mechanicals but do a full interior and exterior conversion to look like a stradale?. Could be a good series/project..

[@manel3663]

You have to come to Andorra to do some driving Sam!!! You will love the roads here!

[@user-wk6bb9lx2w]

You’ve said you’d have one as part of your five car garage. It is still not understood…an incredible feat of engineering and still the fastest four door production car around the ‘ring after four or five years (7m 18s)…incredibly capable on road and track…the answer is obvious…keep a Jaguar in your life…Project 8👍.

[@ryanhoffmann9341]

There is something very comforting about a video with STG and Shmee150. Can we fly Paul Wallace and Seb there and have a little reunion? Keep up the amazing videos!

[@AutomotiveAvocation]

Love your road-trip videos Sam!

[@henryhol8538]

Good to see the Jag again. I saw your Ferrari 360 Modena at the London Classic Car Show. It looks epic!

[@AutomotiveAvocation]

19:01 evidently the roads surrounding the Rimac factory in Croatia are beautiful… Mate says they are his favorite roads in the world and EVO just filmed a Bugatti / Rimac video there!

[@PEPlourde]

Thank you for still being yourself and doing videos that you really enjoy doing. You are authentic and we can feel it through the screen. I still enjoy some of Tim's videos but in the last two years maybe, I feel he kind of switched from video and ideas that were his roots to flamboyant videos and pleasing the public. I don't know what Paul is doing these days (probably turning a beautiful car into "nuke spec"). Who is Seb?

[@jcbonly]

Beutiful video as always, Sam. Even though there are strict driving rules in this country, but I would strongly suggest taking the 360 down to Norway for your next adventure. Imagine the manual V8 over the hills, tunnels and over that scenery (west/northwest).

[@svenojo5336]

Visiting Morocco with the 360 would be an insane Adventure Sam👍

[@pgeorgiou2012]

So cool to have cross-content with Shmee (et al) again! Feels like 2016-2017 STG.

[@fourlakes]

Lots of great car channels that are out there, and I am a huge fan of many of them, but STG is the only channel that makes me want to go out and buy a new car! No better enthusiast channel out there than STG. If only I had the $$$ to buy a 911. But an F-Type? Definitely on my list for when I seriously consider my next car in 2024. Not an R though, still out of my price range! lol!

[@scalecrawlnl]

Thank you Sam! Travelling back on the menu, very cool and a good change that you took Truffle. Since you asked, how about an Italian car themed trip to Scotland, later this year? With fellow enthusiasts, or some KZbin collegues, maybe add friend of the channel, Phil into the mix? I had a quick look on visit scotland and there are interesting alternative NC500 routes to explore, have yet to experience them myself to be honest, still as theys say, the roads look rather promosing on paper. The names to look for are as I understand it, for example: The Crieff Cloverleaf, Heart 200, The Kintyre 66 and South West Coastal 300. Perhaps the motorcycle riders from your subscriber base can 'chime in' and relay more of these routes. Thanks again, I hope this idea inspires the planning of an upcoming trip 👍

[@joseflarsen6437]

Sam this seems like a great opportunity to buy a Aston Martin rapide amr👍 You will fit the baby and your wife perfectly, it’s has a great GT ride but also can handle some corners, plus’s image the sound of that v12 echoing on the mountains of Italy. Another plus’s in my book, it will drive Tony crazy that you bought and Aston😂

[@jimmybroom]

Another great video Sam, thanks for bringing us on the journey.

[@jonathandemacedo158]

We want an FF. Amazing colour. Not grey or red, but blue or green with a fabulous interior. Something with soul.

[@Tristanbirdyt]

I love the Jag looks good. Sounds good and great to see it back on the channel I’ve missed it. Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you so much, Sam you could take the 360 up to the NC 500?

[@glebkaranz9320]

The Jag V8 is the most glorious sounding thing, beats the sf90 for pure sound - is a Project8 a consideration?

[@tomandtinamatthews6866]

You should do an episode celebrating your time with both of your Jags this year. Especially with this being the end of the F-Type production.

[@anthonybaker5896]

Brilliant as always Sam. Nearly fell off my chair when you revealed how much it cost to go through the Mont Blanc tunnel. I thought the M6 toll was expensive .

[@stevegreen1397]

I won’t tell you how much it costs in a truck then 🙈🙈

[@gordonsimpson3235]

Not at all surprised about the F-Type Sam. I think I said a while ago that I didn't get the duplication now that the GT3 was on the way....and now that you were a Dad! Finding a suitably interesting four seater sports car is more of a challenge though. I would say a Project8 would be the perfect compromise (like Harry's)....there is a beautiful Lime Green one for sale atm BUT, No rear seat....🤔

[@lovelehstuff]

Tim gives of relaxed vibes on other channels and the shmuseum videos that I honestly think I prefer

[@ahmed3la296]

I think the jaguar F-Pace svr would be a good option, Sam or a used gtc4 lusso

[@mitchellsteindler]

I think it's obvious what to replace the f type with...project 8. Let's gooooo

[@andrewTTSS]

Sounds like you need the F Pace SVR. Still a Jag & a good one

[@TeaVR]

Do something different. Replace the Jaaaaag with a Lexus LC500. Nipper will fit in the back

[@magnussvendsen4404]

Please bring the 360 to Norway. We have a day called Italiensk Dag (Italian day) at the race circuit called Vålerbanen in 12. august. Might be a nice destination 🏁

[@T.BartDesigns]

Sad thoughts on the beautiful F-type but it makes sense. My wife is pregnant with our 3rd and I’m having to rethink my garage a tad as well. Best of luck and I’m excited to see what you come up with. Maybe another Audi RS???

[@Shyted]

Of all the motoring KZbinrs, Sam is the one I’d want to do a trip with.

[@timothysmith2262]

A Macan, F Pace, Panamera would all be good choices. My curve ball choice would be an Aston Martin Rapide

For years, I thought STG was an homage to Stig, but just now realized it's the channel name 🤣🤣 I guess I'm getting slow.

F-Type to Giulia Quadrifoglio could be an exciting move with enough space for the family. I’d love more Alfa content!

Its got to be F pace SVR or M3 Touring or if you want content get an Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio and add the GTAm kit and a matching roof box like shmee and create a series of video on the build.

[@williamk1800]

M3 Touring for the growing family seems like the way to go, but I understand if it's too prevalent across youtube car channels already though.

[@marcusbalzer8393]

Almost forgot how great your B roll game is. Awesome video, Sam! 👍

[@LoudModeOn]

Love the content with the F-Type, not only because it's one of my favourite cars but also because you are one of the few KZbinrs along with Harry that makes Jaguar content. If it makes sense to let it go then so be it, but I hope you can hold onto it. Now, if you were to replace it with an F-Pace SVR...

Sam, how about swapping the Jaguar for a Ferrari FF or GTC4 Lusso? 4 seat sports-car. You can always ask Tim his thoughts as hes had both. If you love it maybe the 360 goes away but for something else. I could see you going for a Audi RS Q8 or a Lamborghini Urus as well.

[@Speednote10]

I think it would be a nightmare to lift a baby in and out of an FF/Lusso. Fantastic choice when the kid is old enough to get in and out of the car themselves though.

[@danielheathcote5625]

Nice video. The passion you have for all three sports cars shines through - but with your family situation, the logical one to go would be the f-type. It’d be interesting to see what the options are that are both sporty and practical. I’d say 911 carrera but would be boring with the gt3 in the fleet.

[@giorgostzavaras5686]

Why not replace the f-type with an f-pace SVR? That way you get the amazing traits of the f-type, but with the added practicality for those road-trips??

[@michae8jackson378]

Sam bring the 360 here to the States and drive "The Tail of the Dragon" in the Appalachians! That would be an awesome trip!

[@julian987r4]

messy fuel stop. That will have gone on the paint. As you pull the nozzle out, soon as it is clear, twist 90 degrees to avoid petrol landing on the bodywork.
