@MrSteveo1144 жыл бұрын
Linkoas people often buy old rare Ferrari’s, Lamborghinis etc etc just to leave them sitting in a garage and never drive them in the hopes to sell them again at auction down the road for a tidy profit. They’re even doing this with brand new cars usually from a limited production run in the hopes that their value will skyrocket as they become future classics, you see this a lot with Porsche GT cars as of late so this is what I mean by buying cars purely as an investment and not for the car itself.

Watching this reminded me of being 10 years old and watching For Your Eyes Only for the first time. The sound of the Esprit's engine as it belts along mountain roads, the snow covered mountains, even the scene where Harry drove through that rather pretty little town. It was so much like the film. To these sentimental old eyes anyway. Definitely my favourite Harry's Garage video so far, which is fitting because the Esprit has always been my favourite Bond car of all time, and For Your Eyes Only one of my favourite Bond films. What a wonderful 30 minutes.

Love the road-trips! Also quite remarkable, even for a salubrious Austrian ski resort, just how much impact a visit from Mr Bond has on a place.

I love the fact that you use these cars and take them on road trips. I’d love to see a long road trip with the Xj c!

Harry, I love your road trips in special cars. You manage to capture the excitement I always feel before and during a trip but in a very humble way.

Great to see the Lotus Esprit getting a good run out. Couldn’t believe the way the Spectre Land-Rover was being treated. Absolutely mental it just sitting exposed to the elements & idiots climbing all over it causing damage. The next bond movie after “No Time To Die” should have Bond hunt down all those clowns destroying all their cars in whatever Aston Martin that Q delivers😂😂😂👌👍

I guess the Land Rover couldnt get plates anyhow so not legal to drive, ie an expensive ornament.

Owns a Spectre Defender and does not know what to do with it ! Awesome! Yes I loved this video very much, complete watch!!! Was good to see the Alps meanwhile enjoying the Lotus Esprit Turbo. Brings back good memories, thank you!
