When Harry says he is not going to cover a section it is a bit like when a woman says it's time to leave when out shopping. He starts moving along but then spots something too good to walk by haha.

Thank you Harry, I live in Italy and I always wondered what Villa d'Este is all about. Thank you for sharing this experience!

Such a class event. Look at how people are dressed. So much better than the show of at supercar events.

Money dude: this is a fairytale event for the elite

@paredding 7 лет назад

I think it's by invitation only IIRC - though the Elbe auction nearby may be by just buying a catalogue. Either way there are plenty of hotels (and a huge campsite) along that road by the lake so you could arrive early and watch all the cars arrive the day before. There's dedication :-)

Blimey. At 1.12 in, there is an old Suzuki Stinger (red & black tank, upswept chrome exhausts). I bought one new in 1972 and owned until it until 1978. Lovely little bike. Took me two work during the week and on trips to the Cotswolds, Peak District and Devon at weekends. I wish I had kept it.

Beautiful cars. The RR at the end was a masterpiece. It made me smile when the rear window came up, it looked like a little hearse for beloved pets. Could be a nice little earner.

@mickc7388 4 года назад

Horrible looking, yes and the hearse bit at the rear erk so l will not be buying it now.It was R/H/D ?

@alexmartinez280 4 года назад

4 years to ruin a Phantom Coupe. The guys pretending to be coach builders of old are clearly not on the RR team but marketing is for the 10+ million price. For genuine coach building today, look to Touring Superleggera Milano.

@werbinich7908 3 года назад

Interesting thing about the Tatra 87. Predecessor model 77 (1934-1938) was the first serial produced aerodynamically design car. The improved model 77A has a coefficient of aerodynamic drag just 0.212.(Toyota Prius has 0,24)

@erichakanson7010 7 лет назад

Thank you so much for this Harry. I honestly think Villa d'Este is a mandatory event for every enthusiast, at least once in life. and there are many people who might never get there, but your coverage is the next best thing. I've seen a few videos covering this year's event but your's is by far the best (the RSR, the Maserati tourers, the OSCA, just incredible.) cheers mate!

@paredding 7 лет назад

Do we know if its possible to buy tickets?

@erichakanson7010 7 лет назад

paredding it is possible to buy tickets and although I haven't been there in over 15 yrs I do remember the price being quite reasonable. honestly I think we paid more for parking than for entrance tickets. everything else there is very expensive ( I sat down at the little hotel bar and got charged $12 for a Coca Cola) but if you have the means I highly recommend it. even if you have to do it on a shoestring budget. you will without doubt see things you've never seen before and won't ever see again. and like most RM auctions, I assume viewing the cars for sale is free. which is nice because everything around Lake Como is expensive (hotels, restaurants, shopping etc) but if you do your homework you can find places to stay outside of the area and the travel in just for the day.

@paredding 7 лет назад

Thanks Eric - I did some research afterwards and found the tickets site for the Friday which is open to the public. I have registered my interest. The tickets are a very fair price IMHO :-) For anyone in the UK interested, there is also the Ferrari 70th event coming up in September at Silverstone for a very reasonable £16 - the Ferrari F1 client cars will be there and when I went in 2014 IIRC it was superb

@erichakanson7010 7 лет назад

paredding great. I think the villa d'este concours is must do event for any enthusiast. but so is some of the Silverstone and Goodwood events. if you made those three along with Pebble Beach and Amelia Island in America, you'd have quite a full life with some unforgettable experiences.

@paredding 7 лет назад

Totally agree - have been to several Goodwood FoS, and was in SFR in 2011 and visited Carmel and Laguna Seca but not during the events sadly. Amelia and pebble Beach are on my list to return, just needs careful planning but I am inspired by what I see on Chasing Classic Cars TV programme. So many events, so little time!
