I might, if I was spending near-half a million on a car, get one of these over an Aventador honestly. I bet this is just great fun to cruise around in. And something tells me this would be properly more exciting to drive than the Lamborghini. Imagine sitting that high up, on those tires, doing say 80mph.

@Nialll138 8 лет назад

it is more charismatic , which real car people like

@owjfabrication6822 4 года назад

I work as a classic car mechanic and we have a few of them come in for check before they go out to a country for a rally and they are awesome can beat them

@King-ls5dy 3 года назад

@@BaldMancTwat No you can't. Maybe the acceleration. But you still can't feel the high speeds or the agility…

@MoreUngaMoreBunga 3 года назад

@@BaldMancTwat Acceleration (particularly 0-60 is a meaningless number unless you have a quarter mile driveway that connects to a highway). 60-80/100 is more important and even that is of marginal importance. Top speed and handling is the most important thing if you care about performance.

@ezr3x 2 года назад

They are very cold though. And difficult to drive, you need to match the revs to the gears and such. Totally rewarding though!

@atarian345 11 лет назад

Reminds me of Brian Johnson's "Thunder Guts"

@TimJohnspersonal 11 лет назад

classic James May, cant wait to see the new season, finally here

@ChrisJeyPark 11 лет назад

I agree! They are totally different shows but I like both.

That Spark plug holder on the firewall is a pretty clever idea.

@boy638 11 лет назад

i can watch this all day long. hmmm i wonder if they do vlogging...how awesome would that be!

@travelvideos 11 лет назад

That car looks amazing!

@Buttnut105 11 лет назад

Cool car. I prefer the Alfa Romeo 8300 Monza replica by an Argentinian company, but vintage Bentley's are very cool looking as well.

@phill903 11 лет назад

a beautiful Classic Bentley I want it :)

@hipcat13 11 лет назад

I agree 110%!

@po.russki 11 лет назад

I saw "Bentley" and "Behind the Scenes" and got excited because I thought it was the behind the scenes of the Bentley being on the rally course that aired a few days ago... I was way wrong

@TheDriver458 11 лет назад

That blue car in the parking lot is a Kia Optima? I didn't know they were sold in the UK. Nice vid BTW.

@mortensen741 11 лет назад

Hammonds car in the Amazon episode. And old Vauxhall/Opel Kadett :)

Everything is better than Top Gear USA dear armandkat - i just watched one episode of TG USA... i got brain tumours and nightmares of it

@3X73RM 11 лет назад

It's still not the BBC editor's fault, it's the youtube soundmixer that levels all the soundchannels flat, so the engine noise gets more audible, because it's louder than voices in reality. If you download or watch TG on TV, it's edited just right, I promise, because I do just that, so I know.

@hugglescake 11 лет назад

Mr. May. You're my favorite.

Scania ♥

@KlunkerRider 11 лет назад

So you know where to get a supply of second hand Bentley motors from that era? My point being that any contemporary reproduction build up of such a car, even one that utilizes some original components, in order to keep the costs sub-stratospheric, would require using a modern motor, drivetrain, brakes, etc when applicable. Sure if you looked around you could probably find a serviceable motor block, but restoring such could add tremendously to the costs. Best left to the deep pocket collector.

@hoibit 11 лет назад

The Top Gear Africa special explains about Richard Hammond and 'Oliver' as that was the genesis for it.

Is that Brian Johnson's car?

@OlCapitain 11 лет назад

Same....except if I had 300 grand the first thing I would look to get is the Mclaren MP4 12C...or the new one coming out...then the Bentley if I am feeling particularly rich haha

@Whaleoilbeefhooked628 11 лет назад

top gears good in any format,i think the australian version was slated was good as a show,will have to watch a usa version. like the end of your comment very dry and funny thumbs up

@p101159 11 лет назад

wow great

@KingSlimjeezy 11 лет назад

i think they are referring to an opel kaddet hamond drove in the africa special, but im not sure. after all, i'm an american.

@Gallus-gallus 11 лет назад

James May is great on the show. But hearing him talking unscribted is even better.

@ExtremeDrivingTV 11 лет назад

The sound of a horn is pretty!

@ezr3x 2 года назад

not loud though, especially on a motorway

@MediocreFish 11 лет назад

A new season started less than a week ago (Season 19)... And those three are what makes the show. I'll spare correcting you on your spelling/grammar.

@produKtNZ 11 лет назад

That's not quite right. James wasn;t wearing a lapel microphone when this was filmed, just like he would (they do) in the studio recordings. So every time he isn't facing the camera is when the camera's directional mic doesn't catch his voice, much like if you spoke to everyone while looking at a wall opposite them :)

@mortensen741 11 лет назад

You're right. My bad. It's the Botswana Special ;-)

@Thatsanicesunrise 10 лет назад

i like it its a program about cars. Whats not to like?

@AXHEJAZ 11 лет назад

@pinakdange4740 11 лет назад

oh!!!there is a volkswagen up in the far background !!!

@Wilky575 11 лет назад

If people still don't know who Oliver is just watch the lorry driving episode. They have to get the trucks up a hill from a standing start with something near their heart behind the trailer. If they fail it gets ran over by the truck and trailer.

Kia Optima 0:57 WTF !!!

@icebreakertech 11 лет назад

But Brian Johnson has an original Bentley Blower. This is a semi-replica. A very good one but a lot of the parts are brand new and/or hand build.

@Masternater1000 11 лет назад

Supercompresser out front there?

@seydlitzeugen 11 лет назад

Couldn't agree with the Cap'n more, if I spent 300 grand on a car I'd rather have a personalized work of automotive art than most modern supercars. Not that those supercars aren't amazing, its just I think that Bentley has true style.

@TahreyUK 11 лет назад

You must be one of the people on the BAFTA panel who mistakenly voted it as "best factual programme (unscripted)"...

@KlunkerRider 11 лет назад

Guess ya missed the part about it being a modern replica.
