DRIVING My Zenvo on the NURBURGRING!?

[@Shmee150]

After return to the UK, on 13 and 14th of April, I will be at Wembley Park for Petrolheadonism Underground with the Zenvo and other Shmeemobiles. You can get tickets here: www.seetickets.com/event/petrolheadonism-underground/wembley-park/2791547

Crazy to think I have been friends with Misha now for around 10 years, amazing to see where he's gone from the Boosted Boris days

[@Greedybelly1]

I get the fact you don’t want to drive the zenvo on the ring, makes perfect sense. Dealing with loads of near misses with idiots in e36 m3s in your £1.5m + car would not be enjoyable. BUT please don’t put a video description making it seem like it has been round the ring…that’s a bit clickbait-y

[@ScotchEgg-]

You obviously don't watch Tims videos , he puts a question mark at the end on many of his videos. For normal people we understand he is asking us the viewer a question. So i'll say to you please read the video description before making a b/s statement

[@Greedybelly1]

@@ScotchEgg- bore off. 77 people so far at this minute agree with me so it’s not just me that has the same opinion. I do watch Tim’s videos, not absolutely all of them but nearly all of his recent uploads. Have been following his videos since 2014. Only recently these ‘clickbaity’ descriptions have been used

[@Shmee150]

I hear you! Looking back, every single 'lap' video ever on the channel has had a thumbnail showing the car on track, so I think it's quite obvious the thumbnail is not on track. Either way, let's hope an event lines up in future where we can give it a go! Thanks for your support

[@Greedybelly1]

@@Shmee150 I mean yeahhh…but I see the zenvo, I see the description and I’m like ‘ah he’s done a lap decent’ and after getting a few mins into the video I’m like ‘ah no he hasn’t’. I’m not going to scrutinise the thumbnail, I wouldn’t have a clue that all ring laps include a thumbnail photo of the car on track so I got clickbaited effectively which is a bit annoying. I enjoyed the video anyway and as I say it makes perfect sense why it wouldn’t go round the ring right now but yeah when i saw the video description I was like ‘yes finally see that thing in anger’🫤

[@meneertje25]

That's true but the title still very much suggests you driving your zenvo ON the nurburgring so perhaps change it to AT the nurburgring

[@user-w29vfwh59vd]

The reasons you gave for not taking the Zenvo around the ring this weekend definitely don't make you a wuss Tim, they make you a very smart guy! We all enjoy any Zenvo content you share with us. Just seeing it on screen is great, no need to take risks with it just for views. Keep it up, cheers

[@kimjongun2540]

So happy for Misha, love the guy. His personality and his passion are infectious

[@michaelsummerell8618]

I know I won't be popular for saying this, but IMO the Zenvo is the worst car Tim owns. Yes it looks crazy, sounds mental and goes stupidly quick. But that's all very well and good if you can use it. Given the rarity, and value of the thing I'm sure there are all sorts of insurance factors that dictate its usage not to mention Tim's own awareness of it value which brings limitations as to how much you want to use it, the mileage/depreciation factor etc etc. Cars like the Ford GT, SLS Black, Senna etc were very special cars, looked wild and because they came into a more supercar rather than hypercar price bracket, the liability comes down a long way. There's also the way it drives - the unhinged mentalness of all that power and not being able to use it for more than a second or two on the road. So it's a car that you can't use on a track as it's too valuable but can't use on the road because it's too fast, too crazy and too valuable. Other than it looking cool, what's the point?

[@twoeyedbob]

The point Is social media clout ,I’m not sure many other cars do it quite as well as the zenvo

[@Greedybelly1]

Could not agree more, fair play. The new sf90xx will be the same kinda thing and it is somewhat obvious that Tim’s buying a number of Ferraris to qualify for the xx car. Which is totally understandable as he wants an xx, can’t really blame him for buying Ferraris when the guy knows what he wants. BUT is the new vantage not a more tempting buy than the Roma? Is the 296 not just a trickled down version of the sf90? Is the puro not just an 812 with a bit higher suspension and more expensive and needless to say…uglier. Think there could have been more variety with car purchases for Tim’s content

[@jhonsok]

The Zenvo is the type of car you would bring to a place like Ascari. Pay a hefty membership fee to access an exclusive beautiful track with all the amenities you need.

[@christophernicol4762]

It also looks home-made.

[@123iniko]

Other than that the car constantly is in the shop at the manufacturer. So, besides the fact it looks mental, Tim is not actually able to look at it that often, because the car is being serviced in Denmark for the bigger part of the year.

[@rebelranter]

Looking forward to following @Misha’s new venture delivers. Best of luck to the two guys for the future.

[@tinyrodent2821]

You know the car is valuable when not one person you passed didn't stop and gawk at it, in a place like the Nürburgring where supercars are a daily occurrence

[@ghgnice9498]

No Tim you're not a woos you're a man using your brain ! We get it , there are too many heroes out there that'll be like ohh a Zenvo on the track I'll rev him up for a race ! You've come too far to lose one of your babies to someone else being careless ! Absolutely love your driving on the autobarn 257 ks and you turn to look at Puppy holding the camera lol most people are eyes glued to the road white knuckled hanging on for Grim death ! Not Shmee hahaha Wish we had some roads in OZ with a higher speed limit than 110ks anywhoo love the Zenvo but I think my favourite of your cars is the AMG GT Black series . Ohh yeah I think it's about time you added your first car (the cube) to the museum !

[@LarsAgerbk]

Thanks for the explanation on why you haven't done a lap with the Zenvo yet. Seems reasonable. Hope you will get the track for yourself one day. I'm sure everybody wants to know whether thatn hydraulic rear-spoiler is an advantage , or if it's just for show. Should you ever get the chance, please be careful.

[@harryj_cars]

Woah the flames are insane 😮🔥

[@fit_pharmd4830]

Your explanation is well understood about the Zenvo. Honestly, if you did take it out you would be crazy vs. being sane and holding off for a much better day.

[@szymon1045]

I love the start of the video. I watched it a couple of times. I got to love a sense of humour about that Auris Hybrid going a track. I had owned exactly the same Auris Hybrid e15 Gen 1 in Titannium Black for the past 3 years. I can't say that it isn't fast enough for a city car 😂 It is more than enough to overtake a Gen 3 Prius with the same engine of the traffic light. I would love to see how it perfoms on the ring. Hope to see you on Petrolheadism at Wembley. Great video, as usual. It is nice to see Misha on another YT channel.

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

As a Dane, formerly living my life very close to where the "Zenvo" is built in a small Factory (I sadly never met one!), I of course like the promotion of the car, unlike the British, Top Gear Show, which in spite of a Record Speed on their track, mostly used it to make fun of Danish built Sportscars! We also had the now late Ole Sommer, who made a serious version of an Ferrari/AC Cobra like car, built a many samples, as many other cars based from his Volvo Dealer Ship.

In my mind the Zenvo has a Cartman voice giving it the 'respect my author-itaey'. We don't take the thoroughbred out on a field with divots. Nice to see the restraint. Angry Zenvo is going to be an experience.

Ha! I knonw "Rent 4 Ring"! I went to the Ring on vacation and rented exotics from a few different companies and even paid for a driver to first show me the track and then do some ride-along laps with me. It was well worth the money. Plus, it's a rental car with insurance. If I plowed it into the guardrails, it wasn't mine! It seems backwards but I cared less about the rental cars than I'd have cared about my own cars. I drove the hell out of them.

[@strippins]

The zenvo is a white elephant - understandable not driving it on the ring, also understandable not driving it on the road much - but surely there must a SOME track day he could take for a spin and show what it can do.

[@2JZDestroyer]

its too bad about the ring , but it can always be done in sim(pretty sure AC has a TSR mod, not sure how accurate it is). TSR-S is quite literally a castle on wheels; so this kind of makes sense. Maybe a day at Silverstone or Brands hatch would be easier to organize? Again its always easier to race an expendable (can't believe I'm saying this about a Black series) car.
