1,000 MILES in My FORD GT! The Ultimate Bonkers Road Trip BEGINS

It's time for a truly bonkers road trip; taking my Ford GT all the way to Spain! We kick off from The Shmuseum with a massive first stretch all the way to Monaco via Lyon, and a drive through the Route Napoleon. Armed with roof box and crazy livery, let's get this underway!
Having literally only just arrived back from a few weeks travel, a mere 15 hours later, we are back on the road and this time in my Ford GT set up for the purpose. The biggest limitation of the GT is luggage space, hence we decked it with my roof box and matched that to the livery of the car, wearing Lhouette's HYPER POP artwork. The original art pieces that were scanned for this printed wrap are going to be auctioned next month with 50% of the proceeds going to support the charity, CALM, that supports mental health.
However, this is in many ways retracing the footsteps of my first ever vlog series; Adventures in the Shmeemobile, when I took my Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster to Monaco via the Route Napoleon back in 2011. Having not even been to Monte Carlo full stop since 2019, which coincidentally was also in the Ford GT, it's a welcome return to the ultimate land of supercars.
A journey like this certainly brings about complications like the GT's awful fuel tank capacity, the ski box on the roof held on with suction mounts, and the struggles with tiny French roads and parking garages. However, let's crack on and take it as it comes!

Can we have the shmuseum channel back? It was nice to see what tom and Brad do while you're off on your trips

[@Shmee150]

Unfortunately I have not yet been able to find a solution but maybe we do in future

[@amauri_dleon7726]

Oh

[@Mac19_72]

[@charliemacklin7017]

Has Tom left? Seen him in Paul’s video with dub customs

[@TheNemesisInc]

@shmee150 Maybe explain why?

[@siddharthl_12]

Massive respect for you to drive for so long and get these videos out for us! Love the content!!

[@Shmee150]

And I appreciate you guys checking out my videos! Always trying to bring you along for the ride.

[@filipb]

Yeah! Roadtrip, content I love the most! Haven't done the route nap for so many years, I know where my next road trip is going ... thanks!!

[@Shmee150]

Definitely worth revisiting

[@thomasthornton5125]

You don't ever stop! I love how much respect and love you get all over the world. Especially in the US. Thanks Tim

[@jonathanwileman6028]

Brilliant video Shmee, really enjoyed seeing you take the Ford GT on such a long journey. Fair play to you .

[@karbonfiba2044]

Pupp150 is such a trooper hanging with you....the support from her is wifey material...

[@carlg7535]

Seriously. This amount of travel and camera work has to be a grind!

[@Kronos0999]

With 10 years together she is but he is smart enough to not get the government involved.

[@mickaldinho]

The Ford GT has been my favourite shmeemobile from day 1, didnt think I could love it anymore but that exhaust system has improved it tenfold 🙌🏼

[@howardsherback9503]

I am amazed at your energy, you commentary while driving in tight spots is wonderful. Beautiful video.

[@anthimosmarinou6886]

@shmee150 you should create somehow digital maps with few of the must road trips that you drove all around the world for us!!! Stunning views!😍

[@Queleb1]

It's ridiculous how much France looks like Northern California. Specially where I grew up in Lake county, even the blue lake at 19:48 looks exactly like 'Blue Lakes' in the area. It's almost nostalgic watching this video even though they're two places on opposite sides of the earth 😅

[@wounddd]

Need the shmuseum channel back, miss brad and tom. to me much more fun to see the going-on’s at the garage rather than you driving a new car

[@thepurplesband]

Just got back today from doing pretty much the same trip in my 458 - but down to Monaco, then Como, the Monza F1 Did route napoleon but also the D900 which is a crazy road. Highly recommended!

[@utahknivesandgearnick7647]

Love this quick road trip video Tim!!!! Excited to see what you end up doing with your time in Monaco👊🏼

[@pip5461]

Totally amazing how quick you managed to do the edits and get the video out... beautiful scenery and the Bluewater looked so unreal...

[@jakkovaningen8350]

What an amazing video, best in a long time imo. So cool to ride with you and enjoy all of it. The stuff of dreams 😊 Thank you!

[@ricosuave4026]

I remember your video with you being in NY crazy to think people don’t believe a car like that exist absolutely insane shmee glad someone like you has the privilege to own one of these beautiful stunning cars!

[@heihei8394]

For a guy that full of passions and joys in his life, a decade didn't leave anything on your face, you looks the same. Stay young and keep joyful, cheers!

[@dono2116]

Tim and his bloody suction checks 😂😂 should make it a drinking game

[@Jefe86]

Love seeing the GT get its legs stretched. One of my favorites of the garage for sure. And the new exhaust sounds amazing!

[@6deste]

That was indeed epic Tim, great stuff, many thanks 👍🏻😎🌞

[@thulanimoagi8587]

Ford GT is hands down my favorite car in his collection

[@yellowduck8061]

It's so great to see you using the GT for what it was meant to do. Make noise &turn heads.👏👍

[@sputnikalgrim]

The exhaust really does sound brilliant

[@MEnglish404]

Tim, your living a dream! What a wonderful road trip to Monaco. I would love to drive the same path one day! Thanks for the fantastic video!

[@JD15_Josh]

Me and my family have driven the route du Noplien. It was stunning and you should have lots of fun!!

[@RogerBlair]

That quicksilver exhaust is incredible

[@shawnmcfarland4743]

Well deserved, you've earned it... Enjoy sharing the Venture with you. Epic is an Understatement

[@tonytutone2003]

Reminds me of older Shmee videos. Loving the scenery.

[@golden5522]

I will be tuning in for this road trip so keep them videos coming

[@jeffancelet7366]

Yes! My favorite type of Shmee video. I trip to continental Europe thru the eurotunnel...and in the Ford GT. Amazing!! Thanks Shmee!!

[@charliemacklin7017]

Has Tom left? Seen him In sol video with dub customs

[@JustinMcFly1980]

Should do hard braking test with roof box loaded to make sure it sticks from a hard stop with weight . Hopefully all goes well. Safe travels. 😊

[@YepYepYepYepYep]

I’m not usually a fan of that style wrap but this does look incredible 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@Fritz___]

Driving those roads in the GT looks like so much fun 😃

[@G4YG]

Thank you for such an extensive tour Shmee

[@RichardRatner.1972]

Loved the original trip you did in the GT a few years ago. Kindest regards, as ALWAYS Tim, Richard U.K

[@Mulligansmiles]

Keep being inspirational 🙏 💯 Would love to see this car one day !

[@MrEddie152]

Your ford GT is my favorite car you got, and that you take it on adventures is great

[@paulwalkert2915]

Thanks for sharing the videos. Really one of the best places to visit in the world.

[@koenigseggkid1678]

I'm 29 and have been watching Shmee since I was in High school. That's depressing. Lol. Shoutout to anyone else that has been with him since OG times.

[@edgargomes8003]

5years already!!how time flies.i remember that Christmas like yesterday.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

[@mpumeleloshabangu3980]

Living the supercar dream indeed, i watch every one of your videos, you an inspiration to me 👊 keep it up,

[@dr.go-fast]

These videos are the best, thnx Tim.

[@Samo_Wings]

You know that roof box is definitely going to screw up the MPG, on top of the car already has a small tank. Good luck on this trip Tim. Can’t wait for all the content to come from it!

[@dougsmith4678]

Car looks AMAZING! love it

[@davidkeenan5989]

Loving the sound of the GT.

[@johngilbert1520]

Looking back at that first trip with the Aston, even you must never have thought it would evolve into the Shmee150 we know today.

[@Azizur_93]

Tim you are loving the dream!!

[@timjones4594]

Its like your GT is wearing its pyjamas. Love it.

[@Crispy1434]

Great video as always Shmee!

The QuickSilver exhaust is great, it really woke up the sound!

Wow it's so cool to see "my" city ( Lyon ) in your video ! 👍

The livery is crazy 🔥🔥

[@mentallightspeed]

I have been admiring the life of Shmee150 everybody's favorite Car Enthusiast for years! His attention to detail..trip planning are superb! Him spending time with each one of his cars as he shares special moments with us is what makes the era of YT videos a great time to be alive! Thank you Shmee150 for the Epic Videos with you and Shmoo150!!💙🤍💙🚗💨🇬🇧🤍💙🤍

[@AutomotiveAvocation]

Baby Shmee! Amazing what all you’ve accomplished in 12 years!

[@AshMoone]

I like how even though he has crazy cars, he still really likes seeing nice cars.

[@dannycollins2651]

gotta love seeing this car being driven

[@dash-ryan]

"That guy didn't look happy at all." 😂 What a dude. Seeing a Ford GT, let alone one with that livery, would have made my morning! So awesome!

[@welcome1971]

That water looks amazing.

[@ojwhittle4960]

Good for you man! Just built the ford GT Lego set and it’s a beauty.

[@Taylor___]

All the way to Monaco in that Ford GT oh man, your spine would turn to mush after 100 miles. Bravo!

[@rteezy5683]

i love your roadtrip videos shmee 💪

[@eSysmanSuperYachts]

Tim you are the only KZbinr that makes me feel lazy! Haha I remember that watching that trip. I discovered Sam from STG. Been watching him since.

[@keshavagrawal9955]

Was waiting for this vlog.. after watching your stories 🎉

[@lloydbellis7360]

Great trip and scenic 😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@MostCedric]

Dear Shmee, when you travel with low profile tires, do you have any techniques to avoid flat tire?

[@mohammadalvee664]

We love see people reacting to this insane thing 😂❤

[@stephenlane9168]

Has Tom been let go?

[@19962264]

Safe travels 👍🏼

[@FFFAnorwichSPUR]

As always absolutely amazing content...always wondered do you share the driving on these mega roadtrips

[@Shmee150]

Yes this one had a bit of sharing, especially between all the fillups

[@benjio6874]

What a road trip, so cool to see someone do that in a ford gt. Just wanted also to thank you to take time for me in Monaco on Sunday when we met in front of your hotel

[@homerfeltheim12345]

It’s amazing how good that car sounds now

Love the Ford GT!!! Easily my favorite car in your fleet.

[@draknon6662]

What a fun video to watch.

[@mfundoh8148]

I love this wrap.

[@nickwilliams1108]

Did much of that in June. A fantastic drive. The Musee des Citroen at Castellane is full of original low mileage Post war Citroens and is definitely worth a visit.

[@ludda42]

The GT sounds amazing

[@robertthomas2665]

love your road trips Shmee, my Audi TT just turned 44,444 miles and I thought you would have like that too haha 👍🏼👍🏼

[@Remko_Gooijert]

Stunning scenery at "The Gorges du Verdon"

[@Shmee150]

It's beautiful up there

[@LuxuriousDeidesheim]

Oh i remember that vantage roadtrip :) good times

[@tbowden85]

Hey shmee, I’m guys as soon as he arrives in Monaco was hilarious. Great video Tim and team 🎉

[@micahsmith4149]

Love the wrap, keep it for a while!

[@jtwig9311]

Shmee...it's not crazy at all. You work your ass off. And hard work pays off. I hope to see more cars with that exact pic...in the future.

[@LeWacoKid]

The wrap on that ford gt is criminal.

[@mohammadalvee664]

32:03 minutes of happiness 😊

[@StrikkerEureka]

Amazing!

[@pw191164]

Where exactly will the Supercars owners circle weekend be in Spain? And is it somewhere the public can visit, because there are a lot of expats in Andalusia who would want to see all the exotica.

[@WO458]

Pure class

[@waters1801]

my favorite videos!
