LITERALLY people in Poland are writing articles about this challenge. It is great to see you keep going and being noticed by other nations. I’m keep showing your work to friends and family. just hoping that one day me or one of those people that know about you because of me will have a chance to support you while future challenges. All the best and thank you for the fun that I’m getting from watching your videos.
Ben is a legend. Many people don't realise the mental toll this kind of driving can have on a person. Driving from London to Amsterdam is challenging enough !
I was dead impressed at the amount of Liverpool fans who vlogged asking people questions in different languages and these were Brits,I can speak French and Italian only because part of my heritage is Italian and I studied French to a high standard so speak it fairly fluently but even I would find it hard to explain about my bank and then being charged 3 times etc, he made an effort at the hotel and spoke basic French, Most Brits do make an effort now, on the basic stuff, languages are taught at every school but lots of students are now opting to study Mandarin, which is very sensible given the size of their country and population, eventually Mandarin will be the most spoken language so it makes sense to teach our children that rather than European languages. I get why the stereotype exists due to British people in the 70's and 80's not learning any languages at school and they were arrogant to an extent and expected the word to speak English but that attitude is changing and the world has moved on since then and we are all much more connected.
@Maryam Sattar - these are some great comments that you are posting on this video. However, the content that you post is dreary and it’s not at all enjoyable to watch. For this reason I subscribed then unsubscribed and liked then disliked the video to show how disappointed and disheartened I’ve now become due to viewing your videos . Have a great one!
Ronaldo Is Father I will never understand why people go so out of their way to put others down, especially when it comes to strangers. Based off of what you have said, I’m guessing you did not read the description stating I made those videos for fun and for myself to watch in the future. But regardless, I’m sorry you felt that way and hope you have a good day
@maryam - well you know what? I’m going to stand up for myself as I can longer endure this abuse that you have laid upon me. I’m beyond frustrated at this moment in time and I believe that the only way to deal with this trust and mental issues (of which you have placed onto me) is to let my anger and distress have an outlet. Mark my words maryam you have not seen the last of me! DISS TRACK SOON I SAY. Farewell maryam, my newfound sworn enemy
It was spoiled to me that you made it to madrid in the old banger by none other than national ITV news hahaha, seen you on TV getting interviewed man!!
I’m so used to Simon travelling with no money that when he said ”let’s grab some food” I was like OMG, FOUR PEOPLE DOING THE MCD TRICK IS NEVER GONNA WORK! 😂😂😂
Go Guys....good luck ....were following you all the way.....you're bringing back our own journey's we have had leaving A'dam to Vienna in 1995....So cool....the trip....the game...the win but the real champ was our car....a Vauxall Viva from 1970.....Amazing and I can really feel how you guy are feeling right now....I'll hope you come back as Champions of Europe.
Reminds me off hiking to highbury when I was younger, picked up by the biggest wreck of a van I'd ever seen, 10 of us thinking " we ain't going to make it" incredibly we made it! City lost, I'd lost 2 days pay ( it was a Monday match) and when we got back to the "wreck" the guy said sorry lads she's given up! We all had to try to get a lift back to Manchester! It was a great night, the lads were well up for it! We lost but were expecting that anyway we used to celebrate when we won a throw in!..... Well done you scousers, it reminded me of the good old days......
Road trips abroad in crap cars are the best times of your life. Those utterly random, carefree days create a strong essence of being spontaneous and cool. Great vids.
All motorways in France are toll roads. But you can get a device for your car, that means you can drive straight through them, via the orange t lanes. Great series of videos, saw you on the news and in the paper.
Great vlog. I did the same trip from Birmingham to the Costa Del Sol in an ex British Gas Sherpa van many years ago with some speed as well. Great fun. Good luck with the rest of the trip. I hope you are there by now.
Alternative title: Simon gets all the credit and forces his brother to do ALL the driving to Madrid, whilst moaning about how tiring it is being a passenger. 😜🤔😃😂🤣😅 Only joking mate. Hope you get there in time to watch LFC lose. #COYS Medal for Ben please.🏅🏅🏅
Huge respect to the drive! We did Bristol to Marseille by motor for Euro 2016 & that was a trek split between 4! Your guy has achieved legend status here! Safe rest of the journey, hope you make it all in good time🤘🏼
Awesome.. the lad driving needs a champions league medal for that drive 👍
David Smith for sure
He totally does. I had to drive from Madrid to Bordeaux in a night once - though not in a £40 Skoda!
His arms almost snapped off there so thin on the steering wheel
David Smith Honestly!!! The concentration on the road, everything... not to talk of the bloody car not having a power steering lol
They should of all shared the driving
This is like watching old school Top Gear challenges... :D
Good comparison 🤔. MORE SIMON! MORE LIKE THIS! 👍💪
True so damn True
@Moab Mack Reacts Strangely enough I recalled in an very early TOP GEAR, Jeremy Clarkson said that the Skoda Favorit is a "bloody good fun car" .
Liked so I could be the 400 like
10 hours to go... "We're going to put a shift in now." ... Brother does all the driving.
What a leg end his brother is !!👌
Hahahahaha
Legend has it that he actually sleeps with his AirPods in

Genuinely love the mutual respect between spurs and Liverpool fans. Not just this clip but all over Madrid
VillaPrepared your goin down next season calm it
Yeah second that mate. Didn't see ant trouble, every bar was a mix of fans all singing and enjoying the time. Wish it was always that way.
This is what I’ve been waiting on all day
@Gerry Freeman hahahahaha
Literally just watched the first one and this came up.
@Gerry Freeman What else do you want to say?
You've conquered all of Europe

How much do you earn in a day?
Me: about 2 and half cars.
100th like
100 quid a day?
100 quid a day? £3000 a month. Not bad
@Bajoos damn still not bad. Maybe you earn $20k a month or whatever some people live in poverty with no money so 3k is still good
@Bajoos damn considering you play roblox and fortnite i wouldnt believe that you are above the age of 10, nevermind earning 10k a month

Been thinking of doing this drive - what are the biggest challenges?
Mate I’d pure buy that car it looks class for fourty quid
Guy speaking English into a French toll machine . Your in France . Classic brit

@@murdershe......7378 it is the most spoken language
What do you even expect? Him to learn a whole language in 2 seconds just so he can speak to a toll machine in French?
I saw on your Instagram that you reached Spain 🇪🇸 you are definitely going to make it you are so imaginative
Fair play to yer bro for being the designated driver
*designated survivor
The McDonald's cost more than the car. Epic! Great effort fellas 👏
"Shut all the air vents and hold your breath" classic 😂😂😂
Every purchase in this video *cost more than the bloody car itself* 🤯😂
😂
Maryam Sattar when
Ganja420 I was hoping tmrw but I’m not done editing so probably Sunday morning
@Ben, it would take them another week to get to Madrid then 😉
Ben Silva yeah probably would’ve had to take some long country roads to avoid all of them
I love that everything is calculated in cars now. 'that cost x amount of cars' hah ... good effort lads
I think this car exceeded everyone’s expectations... including the person that sold it 🤣
Especially the one who sold it 😂😂😂😂killed it
Nicholas Muchiri yeah 😂

You should auction the car WHEN/IF get back, a collector will buy it
I’m so used to Simon travelling with no money that when he said ”let’s grab some food” I was like OMG, FOUR PEOPLE DOING THE MCD TRICK IS NEVER GONNA WORK! 😂😂😂

Road trips abroad in crap cars are the best times of your life. Those utterly random, carefree days create a strong essence of being spontaneous and cool. Great vids.
I have a question,
In the intro song does it say “honey” or “money” 🤣😂
Honey
Had fun watching
this Would not be a simon wilson vid without the iconic " MORNING!" at the start...
All motorways in France are toll roads. But you can get a device for your car, that means you can drive straight through them, via the orange t lanes.
Great series of videos, saw you on the news and in the paper.
Quality idea what a series but I’m with Richard COYS
Back on trending. Simon is smashing it
1st on trending
congrats mate and keep up the good content!
The intro gets you hyped for what’s to come
I saw a photo of your car on Facebook and this brought me here 😂
Great vlog. I did the same trip from Birmingham to the Costa Del Sol in an ex British Gas Sherpa van many years ago with some speed as well. Great fun.
Good luck with the rest of the trip. I hope you are there by now.
