THE ITALIAN JOB titles tribute JUST FOR FUN - 718 Porsche Cayman GT4

This is just a bit of fun and a preview of what to expect from the 'GT4 1500 mile review' video that drops on 6/10 at 5pm
I've done a few of these Italian Job tributes in the past but never before have I replicated every edit and nearly every camera angle so it's a more comprehensive tribute than usual. Towards the end the edits slow down just like the original and I stole the ending wholesale because it's somewhat harder to replicate!
Because I've used the original music I don't get any revenue from this video but I've trying for years to make a convincing tribute and I just wanted to share it with you guys.
I can only imagine how much of an impact the Italian Job film had when it was released in 1969, it's still quite brilliant today over 50 years later!

Andrew, it is a long walk back to England, and it's that way. Good day.

[@volkswizard]

😂👍👍

[@GRfourfun]

Perfectly done Andrew and now I want to watch the Italian Job! Can’t wait to see your review and adventures in the GT4.

[@volkswizard]

Thanks so much. Tomorrow’s video is a simple likes and dislikes with amazing scenery. I’m looking forward to reliving it all with the road trip vlog which will follow next week 👍

[@Trophy_R]

@@volkswizardI’ll be making notes of where to stay and the route I’m wanting to do this next year in my MK4. Megane Trophy R, keep the road trips coming mate 👌🏼

[@danielrussell446]

Fabulous not just the scenery but that engine sound too! Must have been a great experience

[@BM-235]

Spectacular scenery ... and almost no traffic.

[@volkswizard]

San Bernadino was the brighter footage, middle of the day and pretty quiet as it has a tunnel option, the dusk footage was Susten Pass at around 1830 I think so quiet there too then. So beautiful at that time of day

[@jimrooney9926]

Brilliantly put together - so cool and very entertaining! Love the sound of the car and scenery.

[@volkswizard]

Thanks Jim, I ran the original side by side with the editing software to get the cuts in the same place, never noticed before how second half is just one long bit of footage with no edits. Also the film version of the song is markedly different to the normal version which presented a few difficulties, hence the change of tone half way.

[@jimrooney9926]

You did a great job Andrew👍

[@oomstu]

Andrew checking his tempreture while driving his new wheels, lol.

[@keithgreen9009]

What a driver

[@Steve-jl8pq]

Superb work you really outdid yourself here, saw the short on instagram and I am glad you have Matt monroe on it

[@volkswizard]

Thanks Steve! This full version is a lot more authentic as it has the exterior footage of the car which is crucial to match the film. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kriskalpa]

very cool! great video.

[@volkswizard]

Thank you very much!

[@philipguacci6452]

Thanks for the video. Great memories. And the nostalgic music. Took me way back. Tears in my eyes. Cheers Andrew.

[@jonathonbrett-qn1ic]

Just brilliant

[@volkswizard]

Thanks JB!

[@chrismarsh3933]

Super cool film - On Days Like These I wish I had a Porsche in the mountains! Top work. Watch out for those bulldozers though!

[@volkswizard]

Always Chris!

[@prakashnarismulu3332]

Very stylish 😅

[@RickGTI2019]

Funny video, thanks. Unfortunately, we don’t have roads like that in South Florida 🌴 ! But getting my GTI up to 80 on I95 is a thrill. Thanks, RickGTI….. 🇺🇸

[@volkswizard]

We are lucky to have roads like that here but then you have the weather ☀

[@RickGTI2019]

@@volkswizard yes we do. Like I said before, if y’all ever come to Florida, let me know. I have a bottle of single malt waiting to be cracked open. 🥃

[@andyohara1393]

Brilliantly done…I couldn't stop laughing at first

[@volkswizard]

Great! Was it the mascara cigarette? 🤣

[@andyohara1393]

@@volkswizard I think it was 🤣

[@p.a7775]

This is going to be epic and I can't wait! Will be interesting to hear your thoughts on if anything is sacrificed by not having a convertible for this kind of trip with such beautiful scenery.

[@volkswizard]

Thanks! Working on Part 2 now which is Germany to Italy in one day via Lichtenstein. Didn't miss the convertible to be perfectly honest, it always bloody cold up the mountains. Cars with Luke was up in the Susten pass a few weeks after I was in an RS Spyder and nearly got pneumonia!

[@alistairblane9458]

Great fun! 😂

[@volkswizard]

Excellent, that’s the idea FUN - no sponsorship, Car Vertical this and that, just fun.

[@Tracertme]

Cut, cut, cut we can’t not have our volkswizrd… get the script writers back in and do something else with it, or maybe use a stunt double like Michael Cane.❤ Actually if you like this Iain Tyrell did a very good version of this re take but he had a few advantages over you, he can sing for real and has a few Miura’s

[@volkswizard]

I saw Iain's tribute after I made this, very good

[@themafree1105]

hahaha j'adore !

[@focus3303]

Im sure you should be driving an Italian car with that music 😁

[@volkswizard]

I wish, I love the Miura! At least ze German ist the right colour jah?

[@focus3303]

@volkswizard very good 🤣. The Muira is gorgeous

[@jackcordery4775]

That's brilliant Andrew!

[@johnmorrison27]

That was brilliantly done 👍👍

[@volkswizard]

Thanks so much John 👍

[@sailingman71]

That's brilliant Andrew, you need a Miura on your fleet now!

[@real2gone]

Il lavoro italiano. Ha, ha. Great fun Andrew. Looking forward to the drop (pun intended). 🙂

[@GMExiled]

Such a good video man. I just bought a Guards Red gt4 with Satin Aurum Wheels as well. What a car ! Did you PPF it ?

[@volkswizard]

Thanks man! It came with PPF which was lucky. I fancy Aurum when I get bored of black, the dream is a GT Porsche with gold wheels!

[@chrishowarth9605]

I'd still rather do it in a GTI clubsport ❤

[@chrishowarth9605]

But lovely nether the less

[@volkswizard]

Thanks. GTI was standing in as backup but Porsche Solihull got it serviced so we were good to go

[@German-Whip-V8]

Just in time for pasta and a glass of wine😂

[@volkswizard]

Buon appetito 👌

[@markoliver1758]

Living the dream Andrew

[@TheRealSteveEllis]

Beautiful!

[@pablorjimenezjr]

Well so much for getting a road trip video tomorrow. Arrivederci Volkswizard 💐 😂 Both of you enjoy the trip and have many safe Kilometers but please for god sakes avoid any tunnels where possible.

[@s10lucky]

Brilliant 😂. Makes me want to watch it now.

[@TobiasSwede]

You hade me at "Italian Job" god I love that movie and every bloody car that is init..

[@davidstewart343]

That was a shame, how unfortunate that Andrew should happen to run into the same yellow digger in the film

[@johncamplin3557]

Now that’s what I call a road trip. 👍

[@terminatedphil]

That was more like the Switzerland Job 😊 The Susten Pass is a lovely piece of road, especially with a GT4.

[@Zero_Ninety]

Seeing that Miura get smashed up never stops being painful, no matter how many times I see it.

[@malcolmscott4150]

Time for an Italian to join the fleet? Certainly would provide regular maintenance content. GT4 does look great in this setting and your cinematic skills should see you at Cannes sometime soon! Enjoy 🎯👏🏎🏆

[@melthomas4651]

Brilliant! 👍

[@ravenmaster6364]

brilliant andrew ❤ "pritteeeee caaarr!!!! 😂😂😂

[@volkswizard]

🤣👍

[@jrushen4235]

Very nice. Would still rather have the option of having the roof down.

[@volkswizard]

I did miss it once when you could see the mountains more with no roof but aside from that not really. Just revelled in that chassis instead

[@davidhaygarth648]

Thats worse than getting stuck behind a camper van for sure.

[@andrewf7822]

Cool.

[@TheGaryhanson]

COOL THAT

[@mda5003]

Brilliant edit. I've got the film on DVD - one of the best films ever and the opening sequence with the guy putting on his sunglasses, fag in his mouth (like the pen by the way) and of course Matt Monro singing 'On Days Like These' can be seen on KZbin. Anyway, you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!

[@cfbm125]

Buono! Buono!👌

[@paullangley1332]

Please share the location for my trip next year 🙏🏼

[@volkswizard]

Susten pass and San Bernardino pass both in Switzerland

[@TDS981]

Lol

See what can happen when you have a dirty windscreen. 🫵😁
