Rétromobile 2024 - 2 Hour Full Tour

[@shed_racing]

Am absolutely delighted to get a mention at 1.54.30. I'm glad the Salmson chat on my KZbin Shed Racing channel has an audience. Not only that but the car you feature, is the exact car that my Dad, Victor Dutton bought in 1952 and the first Salmson I ever worked on....Ivan

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Ivan, as I said on your other comment: you are living legend and it is an absolute honor to have you here.

[@cobra1010]

Dear Richard, thank you for letting us all participate in your visit at Rétromobile 2024! Well done! Wow, the Ferraris and Bugattis are amazing! But all those cars in this exhibition are! Thank you for your effort!

[@stevewager846]

Man you represent us so well at Retromobile. Glad to be a part of your viewership!

[@dougcargill6730]

This is automotive sensory overload. Absolutely amazing. Thank you Richard for bringing this extravaganza to KZbin. Absolutely superb.

[@maneki9neko]

Extraordinary isn't it? Lovely that RMO took the time to bring this to us all.

[@BOABModels]

I was working at the British Motor Museum stand from Friday to Sunday and I can see from my colleagues in shot that you came earlier. I'm glad you took the time to look around 33 EJB - we are very fond of it at BMM. Thanks for including us in your video!

[@shed_racing]

Also thanks for the mention of the Dutton Bugatti stand at 47 minutes. An eclectic mix for us this year. My son, Tim, took Suzie's Lusso Prototype and my Fantic 125cc chopper just to spice things up a bit. I stayed home and thanks to your video I could enjoy the 'car catwalk' from my sofa.

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Thanks Ivan you are a living legend. Featured a salmson at near the end because of your great exposure to the marque. Keep up the good work. love the '59 mini.

[@lewbarrett]

What a show! Excellent coverage again. Best channel to get the good stuff without the fluff! Thanks Richard.

[@SergioGarcia-ge8nf]

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

[@augustof.camargo6639]

[@BB1951]

OMG how did I miss this?! The rarest and most beautiful machines I've ever seen. Thanks for posting.

[@ronblau3289]

Thank you, Richard, for another wonderful video. Your enthusiasm for these cars is a welcome part of the videos.

[@dzefrejrulez]

Wow, it took me a week to watch whole of it, but i finally managed :) Thanks for the coverage Richard!

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Thanks for watching, great to have you along 🥂

[@michaelbalch9693]

I always enjoy your videos covering far-off vintage motoring events.

[@chalouisminouchon4487]

What a report Thank you

[@richardporter6201]

Went to Retromobile 4 years ago loved it. Thought would be by myself but wife who went to Paris in high school and said hated it surprised me and wanted to come with me. She loved Paris and now we go every year, sadly not again to Retro. I remember how nice everyone was and wanted to talk cars for ever!

[@phila3884]

We've all had the "bad " day in Paris, but she always woos you back.

[@paulcharlesworth319]

I'm exhausted after that. The insurance policy for this event must be enormous. Great coverage Richard.

[@BassicVIC]

Exhausted at the unremitting American accent for 2 hours? Yes. I had to turn the volume all the way down after the first 10 minutes.

[@HaHaThatIsFunny]

What a gorgeous collection of cars. I have never been a fan of the Ferrari 365 GTS/4, but that grey metallic one is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the great video

Another fantastic video Sir! That road legal 917🏁🏁

[@simongambold8098]

Great tour, thanks.

[@gregormager6697]

Hi Richard. Thank you for your pictures of all car. PS. I build the Renault Race car in Scale 1:87 all open and close. the original look like my tiny model car. Im happy. Best.

[@skdinterceptor2828]

Great video, privileged to see some great and rare cars, of the by gone era. Thank you.

[@luftclub]

Amazing show, amazing commentary, thank you Sir. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺

[@chrisrobertson9264]

I haven’t seen anything this caliber since I went to Harrah’s auto museum in Reno A big Thank You

[@SWright1978]

Thank you for this amazing video. It was like being with a good friend!

[@tuaregosss]

Superb vlog , !

[@filmsXGuy]

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing all the details! 🙌🔥

[@johndavey72]

Good evening Richard . Terrific coverage ! As you say, far too much to take in . I could have spent all day there. (Which you probably did !) At 1hr 49mins you mentioned the Leyland Thomas . This was self built by J.G.Parry -Thomas . He broke the Land speed record in this car in 1926 . 171. 02 mph . Sadly , he was killed attempting to retake the record from Colin Campbell at Pendine Sands on the South coast of Wales . The chain drive failed decapitating the poor soul . The mechanics decided to bury the car "babs" at the scene . It was controversially unearthed and restored in the late 1990 's (?) This is that car . How do you pick the best .....impossible ! But that 1959 Skoda 2 seater was very impressive ... and like yourself that twin engined 2 CV would have to in my dream collection . Thanks Richard . And say hi to Maikel .

[@drewgayle8325]

Wow did you do an excellent job . When it said 2 hr I almost didn't watch but that was 2hrs of excellence !!!!!!!!

[@charlvdmerwe1125]

Thank you so much for this walkthrough video.. Loved every second of it!!

[@iraeich]

Thanks for taking us to, the show. It was a fun 2 hours, that just flew by.

[@johngeorge6575]

Next best thing to going in person - thanks!

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Thanks John 🥂

[@shed_racing]

I think better than going in person - a lot more relaxing@@RichardMichaelOwen

[@RICKTUNE]

All I can say Richard is that you're amazing.

[@karlhurn]

Great video Richard. Thanks for taking the time to make this, much appreciated. Looks like a great show. Love the 030 917 and that grey 300 👍🙏🙏🙏

[@normandalgarno3242]

Thanks from the bottom of my heart. So much appreciate your efforts. Also your correct pronunciation .

[@JaguarEType]

Woowwwww Richard, what an impressive 2 hours video . This is so interesting, I can not take my eyes off. That explains where you have been all these days. I am learning so much about the non Jaguar cars. Thanks for all the work and knowledge.

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Thanks Maikel, what an awesome event.

[@JaguarEType]

@RichardMichaelOwen isn't that great transporter at 35:20 ?😃😃

[@jmsjms296]

Thanks for this competent guided tour. You could apply for that job 👌

[@kenvendley8904]

C'est Magnifique is Magnifique... your all (JAGED UP) great Job Ken Vendley

[@mikehatch2114]

Another great video , Richard. Perfect for a stormy day here in Northern California. I cant believe the Ferrari 250 has a Fram oil filter. Blasphemy...

[@dkauto-sport831]

Thank you once again for the spectacular coverage ! The enthusiasm in your voice is palatable bud ! You’re the best..! Thank you

[@ryanwarden9595]

Great video and coverage of the event. Thanks for giving us outside of Europe a look into the show. This is a trip I will now be planning. Thank you!

[@parkavenueco4268]

Tremendous show. Thanks for the superb quality video.

[@hankstrause9018]

Love this show! Next years goal 😊.

[@guybrown8971]

[@Freimopp777]

Amazing display of cars, incredible. You did a great job capturing it

[@fezziwig47]

Merci Richard! Thank you for bringing this show to us. What a week you must have had. I think you paced it very well. I felt like I went right along with you. Et maintenant, il faut regarder vos videos des reparations des Jaguars E type!💗

[@stephenhenion8304]

[@donreidy5422]

After watching the news today, I found this video. It cheered me up. Great job love it.❤

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Thanks Don great to have you along 🥂

[@darrtetzy]

Great video and in no way was it too long. Wonderful to be guided by someone who knows automobiles My only complaint? - I'd love to see everything, so I'd welcome a part 2, 3 and 4!

[@latitude9.5north54]

Whew! Whatta show. Thank you Richard.

[@GasAcad]

Yes Richard! You legend. Great video as always.

[@AP-oc2qw]

Great job as usual. Thank you for sharing.

[@malanne1]

Great coverage Richard, love your enthusiasm! I’m from Vancouver living now in France and I was at the show as well, but I missed 1/4 of the cars cause my daughter was tired and bored, haha so it was great I got to see the rest of them through your channel. It’s funny, so many old car that you never see on the streets of France. The average French aren’t into cars. Too bad for me being an avid car person like yourself. Keep the up the great work!

[@phila3884]

It took me a while to discover France's rich automotive heritage and that for many decades before WWII they were at the top of the automotive world.

[@LegendV12]

Wow wow wow. Thanks for making this video. Best auto video I seen in a long time.

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Glad you liked it!

[@noblenotes27]

Nice Coverage Richard.

[@richardfontenrose9854]

Thanks very much for the tour, Richard. Great job.

[@robertwells1650]

Thanks for sharing Richard! Some beautiful old cars mixed in with some newer ones. I could only wish that Victoria could have something like this. Looking forward to seeing some moe=re of your shops work. Cheers

[@billh2726]

Just a fabulous video. Bravo!

[@Senna-xi1gr]

Thanks Richard well done 👍🏆

[@pasha12343]

Your review and knowledge is excellent, thank you for the coverage of this show😎🙂👍🇬🇧

[@MsAston007]

Fantastic collection and coverage.

[@malcmo]

thank you so much for that amazing presentation I was glued to the television for the full 2+ hours 🚘

[@NewCastleIndiana]

Fabulous as always !!!!! Love your stuff. Surprised I haven’t bumped into you at Goodwood or Pebble.

[@RoyCousins]

It looks like you had a great (and very busy) time. Thanks for sharing! 😎

[@mrpinfold]

Great video enjoyed it

[@bigestudios3890]

[@lwoodt1]

Excellnet video ..thank you.

[@panupanprasertkaew4918]

Thank you sir for viewing the show I really enyoy it , ths presentation is wonderful l

[@johngreenwood1972]

Thanks for the feast.

[@alanbradford3130]

FYI....enjoyed watching all 2 hours.

[@n1352-m1i]

I'm glad you eventually found the Cercle Amilcar stand in the club section towards the end hosting a rare Amilcar MCO - a works car powered by a supercharged inline 6 , like the era competition client C6 you found nearby, which has been a dream of mine for quite a few decades now...

[@nfspeedy2]

Awesome content! Maybe you consider jump marks for the next year

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Good idea! Put them in.

[@hutch430]

i must attend this show

[@branislavtrninic4505]

Thank you, that was delicious

[@itsalwaysimportanttoplanahea]

Really appreciate your knowledge and loved the video

[@kennethhancock2433]

Paddy Hopkirk was a legend in that Mini. Great to see it.

[@kennethhancock2433]

I was going to scroll through quickly but this is such an intimate viewing I’m savoring every minute. Thanks for doing this.

[@BangerFleet]

Love the MG stand. The “Riviea Fletcher” looks more like Rivers Fletcher. He wrote a book on the Jaguar XJS, with lots of nice factory photos. Must have owned that MG or raced it?

[@stevepearce1913]

Lovely to see some Pegasos on show. When one of Spain's major truck manufacturers decided to venture into building supercars they really pushed the boat out. That gorgeous dohc V8 was developed into a twin supercharged monster that could have destroyed the opposition in racing if it wasn't for the factory owner's chronic lack of financial management that sadly saw the end of the Spanish equivalent to Ferrari Pegasos could have rivalled then and perhaps even have built cars to win at Le Man's.

[@EverythingAutomotive13]

Thank You for sharing.

[@sanderdegroot6628]

At 1:39 etc you're looking at one of the rarest 2 CV's ever produced; only about 700 (slightly less) were ever made, from which oly a few dozens still exist. The former Fench colonies were hardly to reach with a conventional car. So Citroën put one engine in the front, and one (reversed) in the back. And it became a 4 wheel-drive 2 CV! You'd be lucky if you could buy one for USD 80 - 100.000 nowadays. Fun-fact; in the Netherlands, the Citroën 2 CV is called "Lelijke Eend", which in English means "Ugly Duck"😃. Thx for posting btw👍!

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Interesting, thanks for sharing as I was slightly confused.

[@sanderdegroot6628]

@@RichardMichaelOwen 😉

[@phila3884]

Wrong timestamp. Need to add the seconds.

[@xqqqme]

That Lancia at 01:04:19 is a 1947 Lancia Aprilia bodied by Monviso. You called specific attention to the rear roof and glass...but didn't seem to find it familiar in any way. Look up the Studebaker Starlight Coupe from about 1948-1952...and you might be surprised! BTW, "coda tronca" at 01:09:00 does not mean "long tail." Quite the opposite, in fact. It means "cut-off tail" or "truncated tail"...what we also call a Kamm tail.

[@bobmillerick300]

Awesome video Richard, thanks for sharing. I keep expecting you to run into Wayne Carini

[@jimmydunham4013]

Love all your videos Richard. Thank you. Do you live in Europe?

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

We have a small repair restoration shop in Victoria BC, Canada. Thanks for watching.

[@michaelkither2620]

I am assuming you edited the commentary on later, unless you have a photographic memory of car specification. But your enthusiasm comes across well in time with the imagery...thanks for your efforts..

[@RichardMichaelOwen]

Hi Michael, live, unedited, sloppy narration thanks. Sometimes I'm reading from the info sheets real-time, but they were all 🍟

[@michaelkither2620]

Your doing a great job..thanks again Michael

[@julianv.5848]

Monsieur. Ricard Michael.... Marvellous Paris Expo P.Versallies that you have filmed. Just love the car turne out, and especially the Ferrari stand...? I saw the Ferrari 414p that competied against the ''Caroll Shellby'' Ford GT40's,? And the Ferarri 412p chassis is the only original remaing survivor left...? And It's the loosing Ferrari car two, the wone that nobody took eny notice of...? And now it is a thoroughbred Maranello Race classic, and the only original remeing car left, that has been forgotton by the wider audience, if you '''could manage to add''' a Ferrari 412p to your ''escuderia car collection'' it will turne your collection into a💰 ''Billion''💰 Dollar Collection.... It's a Mona Lisa in the car culture world... And the competitor to the origens of Caroll Shelby's Ford GT40's... I love the Ford GT40 MK1❤ and especially the Ford GT ''(MK2)'' ❤But wonce you have seen the Ferrari 412p chassi you get to understand ''where'' the ''Gorilla Powerd'' Ford GT40 expression came from...?😂😂😂 (I Just Love It 🤣 I jut love the West 😂) A -4.0L V12- versus -7.5L V8- And when you get see the ''Forgoton Ferrari'' 412p of the 60's you really apriciate the Racing designe peddigree they have 💯 Is the Ferrari 412p or '''P''' race cars classed as a Le mans Ferrari racing ''Dino''...? P.S. Llove the 1970's American Porsche 917 road legal version to Die for❤🧺🧹⚰🪦...?🎼🏁 going to whoch the rest of your Versallies Video 🖌
