Part of me wants this channel to really blow up but at the same time I like that there is just a small crown of people who really appreciate and respect what he's doing
Harry chooses quality over quantity. Rather upload one video per month per car with a runtime of 20-30 min than two videos per week and the same car with a twist and 5-10 min long.
At 75 mph it still has 95% of the engines resources available. I have a similar gauge in the Land Rover and at the same speed, it tells me that 95% of the engines resources are used up.
My mate and I had a good idea in taking his old mans wraith out while his parents were away. Within 5 minutes his old man was on the phone from somewhere in the u s of a going bonkers and telling us in no un certain terms to put it back, must of had a thingy on his phone but omg what a car an absolutely amazing machine never been in anything remotely close to it. Rolls Royce are in a class of there own and yes we put the car back straight away as that was the right thing to do and spent the rest of the day polishing it, the car just has so much presence and deserves to be stared at in owe. Thanks Mr Harry I tip my hat too you👍
Harry thank you so much for this video ! There's something very soothing and calming about your speech that makes my anxiety disappear completely ! My passion for automobiles comes from a very tender age when I started karting and even though I had my fair share of troubles and bad moments in life, my love for cars never changed, what I'm trying to say here is that I truly admire and relate to your passion and also am truly grateful that you make this content available to us all around the world for free ! Thank you thank you thank you, you awesome chap !
Best Wraith review I've seen, just telling and showing us what it's like, had me smiling all the way through, thanks from a poor boy in NZ, very glad you do these vids
Harry, these video's are a joy to watch. Please don't stop doing what you do. The style of your videos is brilliant. Genuine, well-informed and not over-edited. Proud subscriber. Long time fan
I'll never own one, hardly likely to ever sit in one, and the chances are I'm highly unlikely to ever see one, but I am glad that Rolls Royce make cars like this! Really enjoyed this video - especially as I'm also heading off to the Italian alps and beyond on my motorbike next week!
Enjoy! I enjoyed this video because it showed me what the Gotthard Pass is like up top. Last time I was there my mates & I went through the TUNNEL instead... all 10.5 miles of it. We did not think that plan through, and our faces were black with exhaust fumes by the time we reached the end. Hah.
Phil Chalk why do you put that mindset? ask yourself why you can't have it, are you less capable than any other human being? God just thinking like that feels depressing to me :(
David MuscleGuy - crikey, lighten up a bit mate. I'm quite a positive person actually, but like thoughts of winning the lottery etc, it's very much in the realms of dreams, and being accepting of that isn't being negative or depressing.
I started watching Harry's channel. What I appreciate most is that Harry doesn't just talk about the cars, but also about the destinations. I have been to some of the places in Harry's video and it is enjoyable to see them in his journey.
I didnt expect to see Harry inside the boot, that's a first... Love the show, one of the best for sure, you get to see the cars and the views... Perfect :)
I really enjoyed that, thank you, Harry. Continental motoring as few will ever experience, with a spoonful of nostalgia in Coupe des Alpes country. And your commentary is concise , to the point yet choc a bloc with relevant and interesting facts and figures. Last but not least, your sparkle as you look into the lens conveys a joi de vivre and an infectious enthusiasm for real motoring which reminded me of Stirling Moss, John Bolster with a touch of Gregor Grant thrown in to keep us grounded. Yes, you are a truly gifted motoring journalist, Harry, brilliant!
When I'm in the mood to kick back, relax and take a look at a good car, I go through Harry's videos. Very gentlemanly done, with class, knowledge and objectivity. Well done.
Just another act of class and full knowledge. Riding on such locations on a BB, with that gorgeous Panerai in the wrist... only a few could do it so good. Thanks so much dear Harry!
Another great review by the man himself. I do like his laid back and frank attitude and I always wait for the bit where he has to pull out a map to show us where he's going or been and you can't see because his thumb is over the location lol. Keep up the good work H!
Thank you Harry for another brilliant video. For me your videos are pure escapism. When you announce a trip I actually get excited, I get myself a drink and something to munch and settle down to watch, what I know will be a good video. All the best and keep them coming. 🇬🇧 🏴
Harry you impress from start to finish! Your knowledge on anything and everything you review is top class it is delivered like a story in a articulate way that your viewers can just relax and enjoy.
You all probably dont care at all but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I love any help you can offer me!
@Josue Draven Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Love it! RR maintain their "sufficient" attitude elegantly as ever. The red-blue, warmer-cooler approach, power available dial instead of a tach. For ninety-five percent of the driving that ninety percent of us do, sublime. Cross continent bliss. Superb review, Harry. You've captured and communicated the spirit of the ride with aplomb. Yep!
Harry's line "wonderful venue, packed full of beautiful cars, and (eh) beautiful people, (eh) and me" is pure gold. Hopefully somewhere sometime I will find myself in a similar situation...
Must say I hardly ever watch anything car related on youtube and am not even a huge auto fan in general but I saw this on my recommended list and you, sir, are a class act. Everything about the video was wonderful and thank you so much for putting this up for us to see. Just a delight, really. Wish you nothing but the best.
Would like to give respect to your passenger that films you while driving... And also never ruins the shorts while you talk, and also does like the quick dashes in the Alps. Thumb up for both of you.
5:12 *That's Brilliant, my 1978 Silver Shadow (6.2 Litre V8) did around 12mpg and the best I achieved was 14 mpg, however Petrol was far cheaper then, I remember it around 67p PER GALLON - sold the car in 1982 when went to just over £1 per GALLON, with the number plate 45 K. They say that if you have to ask how many MPG does it do you can't afford it, but I have always been 'reputably 'careful'. **9:34** Been there many times but surprised you managed to get out the 'Bad Word' Pass, I always referred to it as the Rhône Glacier Pass when Ladies present. First went over the Gotthard Pass in 1961 on my 350cc Triumph 21 before any tunnels and 42 hairpin cobbled roads, the view down to Airola from the top was awesome., it was raining and stayed the night at bottom (Airola) and when looked up in the AM could not believe where I had been. **21:10** You did again Harry - please call it the Rhône Glacier Pass as far more chivalrous and respectful. Also done similar trip on my Suzuki RG500 Model C **_'Kevin Schwantz'_** race replica.*
Nice sneak peak of Hotel Belvedere on Furkapass at 13:21 :-) Those roads are a dream. Had luck to drive over Gotthard-, Furka- and Grimselpass all in one day last year. Como is also beautifull place, and Concorso is on a bucket list. Beautiful, smooth and classy video. Greetings from Croatia.
Harry is a true gentleman. I think this car's character suits him to the tee. Thank you Harry for giving us a glimpse at what the experience of driving and owning a car like this would be like.
Great video. We did the Furka, Grimsel and Stelvio on the motorbike last summer, that was one hell of a day! Interesting car, although not a fan of that dash, she sounds absolutely fantastic though. Cheers.
Less blingy wheels and interior would be more to my taste, then you'd really have a refined gentleman's carriage. Great and informative video. Thanks, Harry.
harry i must say "being a automotive paint sprayer" of some 35 yrs experience water based paints should not make any top clear orange peel these days orange peel is down to cheap poorly flowing clearcoat or poor touch up robot programs at the larger manufacturer.
I like Harry he's a man of the people, he's the kind of man who can have a conversation with the Queen and the dustman and not batter an eyelid. Good with cars as well.
They're always saying that this is great (and it is for a passenger who wants to sleep), but as a driver I wouldn't want this. Hearing is an integral part of our perception of the environment and losing that sense can't be good for safe driving.
valgehiir but he put the foot down on the autobahn it sounded loud like a sportscar, I wonder if he was on a specific mode that makes it also louder or if you put you foot down anytime it would get loud like that on the black badge because on a standard RR it wouldn't get that loud, you almost not hear the engine
Even the trunk(boot) is comfortable! Seeing a grown man climb in; with barely a seccond thought, endowed with the enthusiasm of a 17 year old, is the best endorsement of this car. Bravo!
Harry, such a fantastic presenter. My favourite car buff. I am jealous that you got to do the Furka Pass in late May 2017. We tried to do it from the Swiss side the last week of May 2015 in a super lightweight sedan. Blocked by snow with the barrier down at Raterichsbodensee lake. We also wanted to do the Grimsel Pass. It was closed and we had to use the Gotthard Tunnel to get us to the enchanting Lake Maggiore. Our leased Citroen C4 Cactus 1.6 turbo diesel with the six speed ETG automoted manual turned out to be a very comforable touring car, despite its diminuative 1,100 kilos. 8 weeks from Lisbon, across the Picos de Europe in spring, stunning and so little traffic. Go there for magnificent scenery and great roads. The zee Pyrenees and zig zag across France. Overnight Ferry from Cherbough in Northern France to Rosslare in Southern Ireland. Such a fabulous country and people. Throw the Cactus on the ferry from Northern Island to Troon Scotland beside a magnificent new copper gold Bentley Continental driven by an jovial Irish hotelier on his weekly commute. British performance and glamour meets French chic and quirkiness. Photo snap for posterity. Continued the enchantment in The Lakes, Wales and Cotswolds, the first day of Wimbledon in The Queue at 5.30 am. No one does queuing like the English. Imagine 10,000 Italians in a 5 hour queue. When we returned the car in down town Paris, the trip computer showed 4.6 litres / 100 km for 10,500 kms or 51 mpg... This is hybrid territory. On the subject of Rollers as a driver's car in high speed waft mode. In my 1979 run across Europe in my boss's 1978 RR Shadow II, it could be a fun hustle with the first rack and pinion steering. Almost a touch of rear wheel drift could be induced by this spirited 25 year old 'responsible' Aussie scallywag. Open road touring at 75 - 85 mph would return 17 - 18 mpg. The best we saw was similar to your average at 22 mpg. I swear if you put the boot in to sizzle waft mode, at 115 mph you could see the fuel gauge descending. The 24 gallon tank draining Arabian oil reserves at 10 - 11 mpg. In three hours there would be no more wafting without a nozzle pumping resuscitation. And the RR Shadow II was the first to use upper and lower air conditioning control wheels with red and blue, rather than temperature settings, now in your Wraith paired into one control. However, being a late 70's British car it did come with its share of foibles. One Aussie and four Froggies set out down the Rhone Valley autoroute towards Marseille to attend a 2CV Cross. Temperature on the outside guage - 32 degrees C. Turn the A/C to Auto with the upper control wheel with a bit more blue than the lower one. Subdued whirring sounds deep in the dash and then, ominous silence. No gusts of frigid air from a system fabled to be enough for a 3 bedroom house. Nothing, zilch, nada. Switch the control chrome knob to High. Nope. Low, nope. Back to Auto. We have only silence. Bother, not good show old chap. Okay, not so old at 15 months since new. We set off... onto Le Peage... Soon we discover what the whirring was all about. The valves / ducts are set to heat. Freeway speed is pumping heated up 31 degrees into our face and down to the footwells at maybe 45 degrees. Frantically try different setting with the control knob and temperature wheels. Even in the off position we have hot stuff. Set control to off. No change. Open all windows, engage cruise control to 120 kph. Driver's and front passengers feet on the seat squab with knees available to tickle our chins. Otherwise shoes and feet get oven roasted. Look, not feet.... 200 kms adjusting speed via the cruise control wand where necessary. The next day emerging from our tents, setting off to get food and dring supplies, now sporting a large 2CV Cross sticker on the back door, switch in the off position - the A/C started cooling. Go figure... Keep up the great reviews and fun fangs....
I watch a lot of youtubers doing car reviews but only Harry can clamber into the boot of one of the worlds most prestigious cars next to Lake Como and leave me believing “that’s handy to know” - Harry you are the best!
Part of me wants this channel to really blow up but at the same time I like that there is just a small crown of people who really appreciate and respect what he's doing

You're absolutely right, l could not find a single rude comment here. Just people genuinely interested in the cars.
it cracks me up every time Harry pulls out an actual map. A Thing you see very little these days due to smartphones.
@alanrtment porter ....so keep it charged!
A map contains far more information than a tiny cell-phone screen.
@ No, it does actually
No one has any idea where they really are.
Firebrand in the U.K. O.S maps detail every feature meticulously including individual trees
Harry is the kind of guy one can't help but admire. Thanks for the best reviews on youtube, Harry.
Byron Rich steady on, we don't know where he made his money. perhaps his dad was a banker for the nazis
lol
I think it was just lighthearted banter mate, though his response was a bit disappointing
I laughed so hard at this one
I thought he made his money selling videos of Eric Bristow twerking to the Danish national anthem while wearing a pair of Daisy Duke denim shorts.
This guy is Pure Class !!!
Pure comfy.
I don't think most Rolls owners drive the thing 3000 miles...

By far the best motoring channel on UA-cam. Took the same road from Switzerland to Italy back in April. Fantastic bits of road and beautiful scenery.

Best reviews on the net. Harry is the man.
Harry could review a kettle and it would be interesting and entertaining.

I've come back to this one 3 or 4 times since too!

That huge car really gets up to 155 pretty damn fast.
Sounds great, too.
Harry - an absolute gem. The best car presenter in the pinnacle of motoring over the Swiss Alps - joyous! Bravo.
2:10 - that sound deadening is incredible! You could almost hear a pin drop at motorway/dual carriageway speeds!
Thx for visiting! Thx for the good and instructive entertainment and the dream you make in some ways accessible to many...
love those sun glasses Harry!
When I'm in the mood to kick back, relax and take a look at a good car, I go through Harry's videos. Very gentlemanly done, with class, knowledge and objectivity. Well done.

I love these half hour road-trip videos, Harry! Excellent work as usual
What a video ! Marvelously well done. He talks about the car and it's driving experience like he was declaiming a poem. Pure class Mister Harry.
I see "Harry" and i click
Great review, Harry has a very good manner with him and is very informative without the usual waffle.
Can’t wait to be able to make such road trips again...tough times at the moment but there is an end in sight , got to stay positive

On the subject of Rollers as a driver's car in high speed waft mode. In my 1979 run across Europe in my boss's 1978 RR Shadow II, it could be a fun hustle with the first rack and pinion steering. Almost a touch of rear wheel drift could be induced by this spirited 25 year old 'responsible' Aussie scallywag. Open road touring at 75 - 85 mph would return 17 - 18 mpg. The best we saw was similar to your average at 22 mpg.
I swear if you put the boot in to sizzle waft mode, at 115 mph you could see the fuel gauge descending. The 24 gallon tank draining Arabian oil reserves at 10 - 11 mpg. In three hours there would be no more wafting without a nozzle pumping resuscitation.
And the RR Shadow II was the first to use upper and lower air conditioning control wheels with red and blue, rather than temperature settings, now in your Wraith paired into one control. However, being a late 70's British car it did come with its share of foibles. One Aussie and four Froggies set out down the Rhone Valley autoroute towards Marseille to attend a 2CV Cross. Temperature on the outside guage - 32 degrees C. Turn the A/C to Auto with the upper control wheel with a bit more blue than the lower one. Subdued whirring sounds deep in the dash and then, ominous silence.
No gusts of frigid air from a system fabled to be enough for a 3 bedroom house. Nothing, zilch, nada. Switch the control chrome knob to High. Nope. Low, nope. Back to Auto. We have only silence. Bother, not good show old chap. Okay, not so old at 15 months since new. We set off... onto Le Peage... Soon we discover what the whirring was all about. The valves / ducts are set to heat. Freeway speed is pumping heated up 31 degrees into our face and down to the footwells at maybe 45 degrees. Frantically try different setting with the control knob and temperature wheels. Even in the off position we have hot stuff. Set control to off. No change. Open all windows, engage cruise control to 120 kph. Driver's and front passengers feet on the seat squab with knees available to tickle our chins. Otherwise shoes and feet get oven roasted.
Look, not feet.... 200 kms adjusting speed via the cruise control wand where necessary.
The next day emerging from our tents, setting off to get food and dring supplies, now sporting a large 2CV Cross sticker on the back door, switch in the off position - the A/C started cooling. Go figure...
Keep up the great reviews and fun fangs....
Very awesome car but what's up with the Subaru XV wheels?, I'm not a fan of those.
A true classic gentleman, even when he climbs into the boot, well done Harry!
I enjoyed that..as always. How was the ride against the Bentayga? Have you driven the Mulsanne Speed? Do a video of that Harry.
Impressive car but more impressed with how you got in and out of the boot without assistance or groaning.
I love the fastback look reminds me of the 69 fastback mustang. or 70 thunderbird fastback really nice
marem19 yup they are very similar
Harry wowed me every single time. I am a fan.
Adnan Abdullah I’m a bigger fan!
lovit, drive a RR into cheap motel cause it is "abit cheaper"...
Most rich people got that way by being good with money... so figures really
I love these road trip videos. Learn a bit about Europe and a bit about cars.
4:45the noise only lasts 1minute, probably a phone or something
Thoroughly enjoyed that trip, thanks very much for taking us along!
Just wondering if that great engine noise under full load is it real or is it piped in through the speakers like a BMW M5?
Good question. It is a giant ass V12 but the sound deadening is legendary from this marque. Hmmmm..
A simply brilliant review of an incredible car. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
Similar price as the GT4 Lusso right? If so, tough choice between them.
I watch a lot of youtubers doing car reviews but only Harry can clamber into the boot of one of the worlds most prestigious cars next to Lake Como and leave me believing “that’s handy to know” - Harry you are the best!
The british motorway system gets better once you're in France...love it :D
Fabulous - video, car, review, scenery, trip. This video has everything! Brilliant Harry, just brilliant.
