    I have to say that color combination is absolutely stunning. The red is awesome. I can only imagine how cool it is in person.

    People drive around in lorries much wider than this. It is all about practice and building up driving skill and intuition.

    What a comfy car! I wonder if by volume it twice that of your 208? Which is better, this or its comparative Rolls Royce? Will we be seeing the Bentley in the Shmee Museum channel as well?

    Very nice.. Detailed Info. Myself I am driving a BMW F01 750I from 2009. Could you tell me the difference in Driving Dynamics.. Chassis Stiffness, Steering Sharpness and Suspension? I am so curious about it.. Since I am unfortunately not able to Test Drive these Cars ..

      @sammooresphoto  2 роки тому

      Hey, unfortunately I’ve not driven your model car so I can’t really help with the vs ☹️. I suspect your car (depending on wheels) will ride a bit better but be less direct and stable. When you push on the bentley rides very flat

    On ' Harry's Garage' he said he was a bit concerned with the visibility of the road from his right side? Is that because he is 6'2"? What petrol did you use E5 or E10? Do you call Bentley if you get a flat tyre?

    • @sammooresphoto
      @sammooresphoto  2 роки тому +2

      Interesting, presumably because the B pillar is right there. I sit pretty far forward relative to most people my height (6ft) and don’t recall it being much of an issue

    • @sammooresphoto
      @sammooresphoto  2 роки тому +2

      It says E10 on the cap and I was sort of filling up just because so I put that in. Presumably there are an army of minions around the UK waiting to change the tyres for you.

    I'm sure 'comfort' seats in a BMW let you bend the top of the backrest forward which brings the headrest towards you.

      Ghost. If I'm going for absolute luxury, it's hard to beat a car with foam-filled tires, those supplemental vibration cancellation items on the suspension, etc.

    you should upgrade your cameras, they are sharp but the colors are awful and completely blown out, especially the interior shots are looking like you used an iPhone 4. such a shame for someone who's such a good photographer
