Harry didn’t invent auto journalism with EVO, but did some things differently and moved the art forward. He’s quietly doing the same thing with automotive content on UA-cam now.
I remember seeing my first vid with Harry in an old EVO Diaries and was immediatly addicted. This guy just pays attention to the same characteristics and details in cars like I do. Thats why his opinion is so valuable to me.
In 1 or 2 years this channel will hit the 1 Mio subscribers for sure. All the best!
For me personally it's the fact that him being a proper enthusiast shines through in the content and I don't feel like I'm being advertised to every five minutes.
I like how Harry uses his cars-that miles are an indicator of enjoying them. In particular, it’s a breath of fresh air to see Harry using them for long adventures, as I do, versus a continual concern about putting miles on them. For me, long adventures and regular use are how you bond with a car, and is what makes the whole investment in them worthwhile.
He talks about them as if they are old friends, or family. I love that. 💗
Auto journalism isn`t art, it`s more of a science tbh, presenting isn`t art, it`s personality + technique..
Art:
"the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.
creative activity resulting in the production of paintings, drawings, or sculpture.
the various branches of creative activity, such as painting, music, literature, and dance."
I love the guy, I watch all his stuff, but journalism is the fkn opposite of art..
Love the transparency here and on Harry's Farm... really useful to know the reality vs. the flash of the other channels - thank you
Yea, that's kinda what l meant to type.
yes indeed.
Quite agree, I find something very unsettling about how the other flashy ‘aspirational’ channels operate.
Yes I agree with all the other, Harry puts it out all in front. Like I got a few bob, I spend it on things that give me pleasure and I like to share the experience with you all. Good on you H.
@@we-can-do Agreed, he’s genuinely willing to share his experience. The flashy channels really feel like they have something to hide which would spoil the illusion!
"I don't deserve this car"...I literally laughed out loud because ALL of these cars deserve Harry and if they could talk would thank him every time they're fired up and driven🏁🏁
You beat me to it! In full agreement. Harry deserves everything he's worked for.
@@autobahnproven you both beat me to it!
All three of you beat me to it!
I calculated my cost of motoring for the year, living in Thailand and riding a scooter everywhere, came in at 88 pounds
Cheap mileage!
I calculated my cost of running an electric scooter for a year, in China, and it was 5 pounds. Purely cause charging is free, but I had to get a new tube 😂😂😂
@@terrencefu4473 Excellent 🙏
But I expect in contrast your Nong Nong milking table charges would be a lot more than in the UK.....
@Christo Genea I charge it for free within my community, and electricity is cheap in China. So perhaps not 100% free but I pay so little!
Harry doing Christmas shopping in his Lamborghini Espada seems so natural.
lol, i know its mad, but fab ..
Whilst wearing a GMT master!
It has a big trunk, super practical
Don’t forget the milk
“Ahh, bugger. I forgot the milk. Got to drive again”.
Very grateful for Harry's videos, keeping us sane in a strange 2020!
Doesn't seem like anybody asked for it, so I will - would love to see a wider review on that CBX 1000. It's such a unique machine and there's not many videos about it on the Internet.
More bike content in general if possible would be appreciated. The Guzzi and the Africa Twin seem really interesting.
Please give us a review of the CBX or even better how about a European road trip Harry?
I'm not a motorcycle fan normally but that's a fantastic beast and it deserves its own vid.
Not THAT unique (Benelli Sei, Kawasaki Z1300, BMW K1600)
Agreed, I had one of these many years ago (same colour) and loved it. Sadly, family came along so it had to go - now they're hugely collectable and fetching silly money :-(
Your Rolls-Royce taken to the artic = "artic-Rolls" You should get a Alfa Giulietta and take it to vienna. Then you can have a "Vienetta". Ba-dum-tss.
Thank goodness your channel has grown so much, as I don't know how I'd survive without Harry and his genuine look on things
Wow... Harry's love for cars, bikes, his farm and family shine through on every video. Not only that, you could feel the passion in his journalism too! In my dream dinner party post Covid, Harry Metcalfe gets a place at the table!
I love this channel . A genuine down to earth car enthusiast. Well done harry
Thanks for all the hours of entertainment here this year, and long may it continue!
Well done on 400K subs. Looking forward to the Lancia rebuild.
The Rolls is "a bit tatty under the water line". Love how Harry describes things.
Yes !
I also love the equal amount of enthusiasm, somewhat shabby Rolls Royce mint Lamborghini, or just a little Fiat 500.
A bunch of us are here for that car, Harry!
“Aces”
It's the "going to pub" car :)
Yeah, I was thinking "water line"? Is that like it's maximum "wading depth" as measure in four wheel drive vehicles?
We’re grateful as well, Harry. You’re generous, experienced and eclectic. There is much to enjoy and learn in your company. Thank you
12:16 seeing the Countach next to a 911, makes me realize how tiny a Countach actually is!
Looks like a toy car. Makes the Porsche look clumsy
Well, it's an alien car and they say all ETs are on the small size. Fits the bill. 🤣🤣🤣
During 2020 ive watched less tv and more youtube, and with channels like this why not....keep up the good work harry 👍cheers
What's a tv?
Main broadcast cast tv is dead, you tube is the future
Genuinely sounds a bargain. And when you consider that the entire collection has probably appreciated far more than that on balance...... the collection is paying for itself! ;)
+ youtube income!
ua-cam.com/video/wKNLUt6YDxc/v-deo.html
Man maths multiplied by UA-cam income! Sounds like the perfect time to build a second shed...
On that subject, I find it perplexing that the classic car market hasn't yet shown much sign of deflating, given the mad, gloom laden scenario we have at present.
who would buy that shit though
Brilliant.
Such a professional-sounding, modest, insightful and enjoyable presentation.
It's also a very pleasant change to hear English spoken properly.
Thanks for keeping up the output this year with great content, helped keep me sane through all the drama and endless Zoom meetings.
Love seeing Harry’s vids. Looking forward to more in 2021.
Happy New Year Harry, thanks for all the videos this year and here's to many more in 2021!
Thank you for all the entertainment during this strange year. Happy new year for you and your family. Greetings from Brazil.
Really excited about the Lancia work coming up. It's one of my favorites of your collection. Thanks for all you and your family do. Best of luck to you all in 2021.
Wow, thanks Harry and Happy New Year, I hope to enjoy the coming activities on Harry's Garage!
I think you have kept most of us petrolheads sane this year, well done and happy new year
One of the videos I look forward to every year. Thank you for giving us those insights, Harry.
All the best for 2021!
Love you Harry! Greetings and best wishes from the US. Glad to see the XJ coupe getting the extra love it deserves.
Loved all the videos this year Harry! Especially the Bond trips! Looking forward to more next year! 👍🏻
Great year Harry 👏🏻, the auction videos for me stand out f, I find them fascinating . The Lamborghini rebuilt also excellent at tyrrells 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻
Happy New Year, Harry! You sure helped us all get through this last one. Whew...
Thanks for the fascinating insight as ever Harry... keep the videos coming and all the best to you and the family for 2021
By far the best channel on UA-cam, thank you🙏
A super collection but that Lancia steals my heart, beautiful.
Thank you Harry. You have been the jewel in a challenging year
Well done Harry. I always look forward to new content. Thank you. Best of luck in 2021. Cheers.
Harry: You make the most interesting and enjoyable videos there are....Thank You and Happy New Year!
love it where you seem to remember every mile you drove with your cars!
Happy Christmas Mr Metcalf, thanks for keeping me sane with all the great content this year 👍
Thanks for another wonderful video Harry and thanks for making 2020 a little more memorable. Happy new year to you and yours!
Brilliant collection! Thanks for the content and happy new year!
Just in the nick of time, thanks Harry, Full support from here!
Thank you Harry for being the light at the end of the week. Your videos always cap off my weekends with a smile and a warm embrace. I always love coming to back your garage. All the best to you and your family for 2021. 👏😄👍 Ted from the USA
loving the sound of the cbx at the very end!! Thanks Harry, for all your videos from 2020, from both the garage and the farm! They were very entertaining, informative and must-watch viewing! I, for one, am really looking forward to seeing what you do in 2021!!
Can’t wait for your CBX video when you let it rip and capture awesome sound. I hope you keep loud exhaust on it and make it even louder. !! Lots of flybys please !!! Happy new year
The “blue” Jaguar is my favorite car in your garage. Personally, I would not change the exterior. It’s perfect ! 💙💙💙
Yes I personally love the Squadron Blue (and the wheels !) but at least it will get airtime now and the colour should be the last thing to go !
Obviously to each his own, but .... I have 13 cars and trucks and the 7 I got new (1978 Thunderbird to 2020 Outback) are white plus one I bought used as well. "Life is too short to drive cars that aren't white"! So my vote is to paint it white!
I think Harry should do a vote on the Jag color, just for fun.
Personally, I would go for a subtle silver blue metallic:
fahrzeuge.dorotheum.com/fileadmin/lot-images/57C171021/hires/1966-mercedes-benz-250-se-coupe-446029.jpg
This way it would at least keep its color by name ;-)
and PLEASE, don't install fender flares ... this car is already gorgeous, it just cannot get gorgeous-ser ...
Thank you for the round up. Excellent content, as always.
Looking forward to 2021 !
Can't wait to watch & enjoy the new plans coming in the garage in 2021.Best wishes to you, your family and your garage in the new year.
Can’t wait to see the job in that glorious XJ12 Coupe. And nice to see you are going to coming to Spain in a rally! 2021 definitely start to looks better ;)
That sound! 😍
Best way to start a vid!
Quite the way to end it too!
The Jag V12 up the road too ;)
Started with an advert for me 😀
"voluptuous"
Fancy seeing you here Art happy holidays!
After a particularly dire day your wonderful enthusiasm for your magnificent and eclectic collection really lifted my spirits Happy new year Harry !
Already looking forward to The Pyrenees 1000 vid. Such great videos...I almost feel as I'm there. Wishful thinking!
That Pyrenees rally will be brilliant. I know those roads very well, perfect for that car.
Thanks for providing us with your Garage and Farm updates Harry, during a generally dismal 2020. Look forward to following the new rebuilds in 2021 and lets hope we can all get some road trips in next year.
Thanks Harry for another great year from you and your garage, your channel has always been the one for me to go to and I can't wait for 2021. All the best for the New Year 😁
Love the fleet Harry,Happy New Year.
Finally Harry Portugal!!! Get a hold of this amazing country by the Sea. Portugal follows you as of a Religious cult!!! Thank you for the incoming visit! Looking forward for it 🤠
Hi, I've only just discovered Harry - but discovered Portugal many years ago! Harry in Portugal sounds perfect.
Quite easily my favourite channel now, thanks Harry! I also had zero interest in farming but your channel has very quickly gained my interest. Thanks from Australia!
Merry Christmas and a happy new year Harry's garage and his fans. Your channel is the best. Very many thanks for the videos, your car collection is admirable, and I hold you in high esteem in the car world.
It's like been at home with relatives and friends, this date with your video, during this unwanted locked holiday period. We wait for you in Europe, for several trips, despite what's happening with the greatest european island's borders. Cheers
Oh that countach 😍, love you're vids harry, a pleasure to watch and so informative, i think you need to take me round the block in the countach by the way 🤣
Surely this is one of the best automotive channels on UA-cam? I've never found any of Harry's videos too long, always ready to watch more. Good luck in 2021 Harry, keep them coming.
Harry, we love your content. Nobody else could make discussing the amount spent on cars interesting! Nobody else has the passion that you do! Merry Christmas and happy new year.
Thanks for sharing, and being candid on the financials.
The colour of that Jag is great, and modern IMO. New grille and wheels would be enough to give it an updated look.
Harry: the coolest car and bike guy on UA-cam! Thanks for sharing your love and knowledge of these remarkable vehicles.
Harry, thank you for sharing your knowledge and the great videos you made this year. All the best for you and the people you care for! Have a great 2021. Cheers
You're living my dream, keep on motoring...
Been a fan for a while! Can't wait for the 2021 videos.
Salut from Switzerland 🇨🇭😍
Great round up and some great videos to look forward to in 2021 - can’t wait for the rebuild videos! Great work as always Harry & thanks for helping to keep us sane in 2020!
I love how your joy of ownership is all about the trips you have done with the respective car. Major props to you for using them as their creators intended.
Thanks for sharing your brilliant collection.
I love the XJ coupe except the colour so great decision! The CBX got started, hooray. 👍
Glorious Harry thank you, and a Happy New Year to you and yours.
Thanks Harry - looking forward to more of your content in 2021. Hope you and your family have a great New Year!
What a great collection, I love the new Africa Twin .
Love, Love, LOVE the Lancia.
Harry. Thanks for keeping us all entertained in 2020 and look forward to each an every post. Yours channel shares so much valuable information around cars most of us will never own but the passion and history you share is so entertaining to anyone with an interest in fairly modern classics. Great journalism and so looking forward to your 2021 content....
Thank you so much for your awesome content in 2020 Harry. Love your work, look forward to seeing what you get up to in 2021!
I knew you had to start the CBX, I love it.
It started right on the money as well!
a friend of mine bought one when first released waited along time for it and went to london to collect 200 miles away all suited up for the ride home salesman wheels bike from workshop to outside showroom and drops it
broken pegs broken levers exhaust bent heartbroken came home on train and an even longer wait finally got the bike 2 weeks later stolen and written off
That was a great round up, seeing the bikes have gotten more attention too, just curious is the Clio Trophy now gone i remember seeing a pic of it this year on twitter.
Thanks for the round up and straight talking Harry, the Lancia is a peach, cannot wait for the video about the rally. Happy New Year and thanks for helping keeping us all sane in 2020!
I love the way you have an enthusiasm for all your vehicles and knowing where you're at with them. As for shopping in the espada and the Lancia only being twenty something thousand, it's not rubbing our noses in it, it's just genuine enthusiasm, which makes me love the way you approach your videos. Thanks for your efforts in 2020. Here's to 2021. 😊👍
love the channel, great content well presented.
Gorgeous cars. The elan catches my eye every time. The esprit next. The Jag for a daily driver. Have a great 2021.
Same here. I used to think I would own an Esprit one day since they are so undervalued, but as I get older their values creep up just a little bit faster than my salary, always keeping them just out of reach.
I still hope to own one someday, but the days of buying a decent Esprit for Toyota Corolla money are long gone, sadly.
Not a Brit per chance?
@@user-ht9fr6eh9u indeed
"The Jag for a daily driver" - uhhmmm on Harry's channel, you'll need to narrow that down a bit!
@@RustyPetterson perhaps the one in the video.
Thanks, Harry. I hope you and your family have a great new year. 👍
Harry, Thank you for all your videos in 2020. They kept me from going bonkers considering our inability to do much with COVID. I look forward to the content coming in 2021. Your channel is by far my favorite UA-cam channel, followed closely by Ian’s channel, as well as your farm channel. You are a gifted storyteller.
Watching this video in the garage in company of My 88 africa twin ❤️
Wow. That Esprit trip seems years ago.
With so many of us spending more time confined at home it's not surprising that your viewership is up dramatically. Thank goodness there is some quality content on which to while away the time. Any new Harry's content, whether from the garage or the farm, is an immediate must watch. Looking forward to a video on the KZ1300, but now of course, it would also be amazing to hear the CBX on full song with that Benelli Sei-like exhaust. I'm old enough to remember when this bike first came out. Some guy had one in Montreal with an open exhaust, the sound was decidedly antisocial, but omg did it send shivers up a gearhead's spine. Very reminiscent of the Honda 6-cylinder GP bikes of the previous decade.
Thanks for all the videos Harry plus I have really enjoyed getting into your farm channel lad. Big love and wishing your continued success for the new year x
On the XJC colour front...
We had them in "Spanish Olive" with the vinyl top & i don't think I've ever seen them look as good. Very classy.
Classy boss
Good stuff, Harry! It would be nice to have a giveaway (I was thinking about the Countach). Thanks.
He did do a giveaway, he is giving me the Countach.
@@howardwinston7736 Oh, no ! I was hoping I would get it (shipping included).
Great to see these cars and the stories about them... Harry you're great at explaining the pros and cons about different cars.. Thanks for all the car and farm videos in 2020. Happy New year and keep safe.
Harry, you spoil us with exciting content! 2020 was stellar, 2021 looks like it will be at least as much fun.
First comment YES!!
Merry Christmas Harry.
Hopefully 2021 will be a better one for all of us. Thank you for all the videos over the course of such a difficult year. No doubt I speak for many when I say that your trips, reviews and auction specials alleviated some of the gloom brought on by Covid.
Excited for the Alfa engine rebuild!
Lancia
Thanks for keeping me entertained by your cars in 2020, Harry. Amazing collection. You seem like a real good bloke.
Fabulous video. So glad to hear the Jag and the Rolls are receiving some extra love this coming year - they are both very deserving and two of my favorites - that Arctic Circle trip was epic! Happy New Year Harry and thank you for creating such enjoyable and intelligent content.
Are you putting rally lights on the Lanncia for the trip!
