    The reason these videos are so successful is because Harry knows what he is talking about and he very obviously enjoys talking about cars and gets as excited as we would if we were there! His enthusiasm is infectious! Well done Harry! If I had the cash I would have had to bid on the 2 rally V8 vantages! P.S. Every time I see a V8 Vantage i'm reminded how beautiful and timeless that design is and how unsuccessful the current one is! (For me it's the headlights on the new one they just look generic to my eyes).

  • @Matteo_Licata
    @Matteo_Licata 4 роки тому

    Your story of the Hyena is spot on Harry. Sadly Fiat ultimately didn't sanction it, refusing to supply Zagato with the Integrale parts, so Zagato had to buy brand new Integrales and chop them to make each Hyena. That's the reason so few were made, as this process made each car eye-wateringly expensive and Paul Koot could find few takers.
