The Chris Harris thread

One of my favourite bits of that. 19:00mins in, watch the rest of the world suddenly go into fast forward out of the window... LOL!

 

[Mr Burns]

I genuinely would rather have that £40k Abarth 500 than that 4C.

Really?

I actually quite like it. Granted there's some silly bits. But isn't it like 700kg or something? (not watched that video yet)

 

[Mr Burns]

Yeah I'm sure it's a good car and all that, but it just doesn't sell itself to me. The juvenile 500 appeals to me more.

 

[Ian_182]

Ill take the porsche please.

 

[Chapppers11]

Porsche every time. That steering wheel is atrocious!

Angel Eye-looking headlights as well.. Really don't get the Alfa appeal.

 

[Martin.]

Without a dought I'd take the Cayman every time though!

 

[Mr Burns]

Yeah definitely Cayman over the Alfa.

 

[jam.]

 

[ch!ppen]

Screw the Cayman on looks alone. I'd have to drive both but the Porsche is ugly imo....

 

[Gally]

Brilliant video from Geneva. I pissed myself when he couldn't actually speak about those Nimrod cars.

 

[aucky]

I sat in the new Cayman at Autostadt a few weeks ago, been a little bit in love with it ever since

 

[Ian_182]

He's right when he says about the Huracan,they wont be able to make enough of them...

Don't drive one, it'll only get worse. Epic car.

 

[...]

The harris video is funny , he made the same comments about the aweful stuff i did

 

[Sam@NP]

The Car of the Year comments were right on the mark. Brilliant

 

[Gally]

Am I missing something or is he not TV gold? Maybe it's old school now TV work. It used to be the big I am.

 

[ben_p]

I thinks it's about him not really working/not wanting to do a mainstream format.

 

[Gareth]

I've been to Geneva a few times and he's right, there really is some shocking stuff there.

 

[MarkCup]

Brilliant video. His comments about the sh*te were bang on LOL

 

[dajones]

It'll be interesting to see what renaultsport do with that new twingo

 

[Heez]

That video at Geneva was brilliant. Loved the "Ripspeed" comment.

 

[...]

He didnt show yoy half the aweful tat he could have , even kahn design had their own fairly large stand

 

[Munson]

Nothing, apparently.

 

[aucky]

Awaits low boost 1.4 turbo.

 

[Daz.]

I want blue carbon!!!

 

[scott.p]

Its not blue carbon, its a clear/blue lacquer.

 

[...]

Its not blue carbon, its a clear/blue lacquer.

Its blue polyester in the carbon weave.

 

[scott.p]

It's not your normal blue carbon cloth which you are right is polyester, the stuff on the zonda is just the normal carbon/ti hybrid just with a clear blue lacquer.

 

[Matt W]

Love his latest update on PH. £1500 a month for his Ferrari FF. Wish I had his job!

 

[matt91]

Sit back turn your sound right up, so much want for this car. Sounds and looks absolutely stunning.

 

[Daz.]

Yup - full of want!

 

[Sam@NP]

It does nothing for me I really wish it did but nothing. I dont think its particularly attractive either, its by no means ugly but I don't get the fuss.

 

[Mr Burns]

I don't think the colour does it much justice tbh, it does sound brilliant though.

 

[Matt Cup]

I'd rather have this one than the one Brewer sold. <3 Patina!

 

[George Welsh]

Nice video..
As much as I like 2cv the mini for me is the best car ever..its pure magic.

 

[Crybert]

That at was an awesome video! Love all of his stuff but that was hilarious!

I'm inclined to agree, it's just as 'cool' and far superior IMO.

I totally get where Chris is coming from, and after several years of driving new and nearly new cars around whilst working at a car sales I can completely understand the appeal of something old and slow. They're simply more entertaining.

Absolutely I can see his point and it doesnt matter if it is a mini, a 2cv or a 4TL..
There is no doubt that old cars have an aura that modern modular boxes with wheels can not even get close to..no matter bhp figures etc..
Things will only get worst I am afraid.. cars will only loose character with very very few exceptions
