Karl: “Scheiße”

[@cmein54]

"Oh blast." I love the translation. Lol.

[@jaybury5760]

I know a bunch of us thought the rally was going to be proper dirt rally style, but I'm partially glad it's not. Heinrich is too classy for that.

[@KeopsTV]

Honestly a bit disappointed it wasn't a proper WRC-style rally... Would've been fun seeing the old merc' slide around on gravel!

[@Bularistan4o]

How is everyone expecting for the rally to be a WRC-style with dirt etc?! Did no one saw the restoration put into this car?

[@AW-Luke]

Who here expected it to be a proper rally, on dirt and gravel and stuff

[@michaeld.4948]

Hey Alex, du kannst echt gut Deutsch👍🇩🇪

[@SINIS0RSA]

Here in Finland even the historic rallies are driven on gravel stages flat out. Would be awesome to see this car going through real super stage.

[@mihailpetrovici5044]

Why would you need a roll cage and racing seats for a street ride

[@richardvaasone5658]

You could have just said this is a sort of mille miglia from the very beginning. A lot of people were expecting real rallying, at speed, trough special courses..

[@aliffitisham129]

I see a quattro s1 in the background, group B anyone ? 😏

[@RichardMajor86]

Good job you’ve got those harnesses for legal road speeds. And the bucket seats.

[@revans4257]

what is the point of all the race gear like a roll cage and harnesses if there is no racing?

[@kingkei639]

A rally that isn't about speed or getting the fastest time but rather patience and precision. I really like the concept.

[@71Corvette454]

Seeing lots of "I expected a REAL rally" comments I gotta say: this looks like so much fun! I haven't seen many of your vids lately and this made for an excellent come back - ain't nothing better than rallying on public roads with a classic car in such a scenery. I've once participated in sth like that with a couple friends in a '99 Cadillac and I tell you - while "real" rallying has got to be cool and exciting, long road trips like this are the ones you remember a lot if not the most :) Regardless of what you drive and how fast you actually go.

[@jarrodwest5733]

So amazing that Karl-Heinz's wife came out the front to support him :)

[@vitalino1981]

Of course You can!

[@ichdu4104]

Btw. Alex told you that it's going to be a historical rally... So i don't know why some people where expecting big jumps and dirt sliding. This is still a classic Mercedes not a WRC Focus.

This is my favourite Car Throttle video by a mile. Please make more like this! I'm also impressed with your fluent German...
