Nothing more to say. 80's icon, side strakes, Miami Vice. I spent my childhood watching that. The Testarossa in Miami Vice was black for one episode (Liam Neeson drove it as a bad guy), they resprayed it white and gave it to Crockett after blowing up the fake Daytona so in white it would look better in the night shots (Michael Mann being into night scenes). I spent every Thursday afternoon in 1986/87 playing Outrun down at Roddy's arcade in Stockport when I should have been in woodwork class.. My favourite car of the 80's (F40 aside). Top purchase Tom.

Personally, I love the direction the channel has taken; these are exactly the cars I lust over and want to see. I would expect you to likely pick up subs from Harry’s Garage, even if you lose those that sub to Mr. Jww. Just to add…I think your philosophy regarding how you care and enjoy your cars is spot-on. Great video, cheers!

To be honest I can't fault you. I bought a 360 spider a few years back and after a couple of years now and after owning the car 6 years I just baby it. I just drive it when I want to and only take it out when I want to but cover 500 to 1000 miles every year. At the end of the day its yours, you work for it and do with it exactly as you please.

Tom take the ferrari to a classic car show I think people would love to see it. 👍👍👍👍From Dan. M👍👍

Driving a TR wearing a Patek, just call him Wolf of Wall Street!

I took my testarossa way above the arctic circle in mid winter. I parked it outdoors in the arctic cold and it always started, defrosted all windows in a heartbeat and went on to deliver another day's impeccable driving.

Love the classic content! It’s the history & the stories that the cars bring with them that I love learning about. And also to see the resto’s coming along too has been awesome, great to see the work and transformations. Keep doing you Tom and keep up the great work, your channel just keeps getting better and better!! 👌🏻

Shame Tom wasn’t wearing his Don Johnson outfit..

I was at that car show and still have the photographs of that Testarossa, they had the F40 on display too.... Really awesome.

That one wing mirror is killing my OCD!! 😩😂😂😂

As you’ve said Tom, one of the most iconic cars. It works from both a heart and head perspective, enjoy the drives and the appreciation.

One of my favourite childhood memories was just standing next to a Testarossa! Congrats on the car...proper poster car, love!

Thanks for this Tom ive been waiting for this vid to drop 😁 love the Testarossa

Such a nice Video Tom! You’re really getting into that „personal review“ thing, love it!

Been looking forward to this video 🤩 They're such cool cars! Love seeing it on the channel 🤩

Love this video. Lovely and amazing detail. Keep them coming LAD

I am 72 and I have loved that car since I first saw one this video is just WOW for me I will never own one but I will always love them......thank you for sharing...

Great video. As always. Thank you Tom. Lovely car and congrats on it. I hope you continue to enjoy it!

Yep, I’m on board with the Red Head ❤️🇮🇹 since it’s release in 84, I’ve loved them, disregarded them and loved them again. Some of the love could be attributed to Harry’s desert run but I think my age has me looking back fondly of a golden era. Ditch the modern stuff and get yourself more of this 👍

Pininfarina. The kings of car design.

Well worth the wait for the video,absolutely stunning car !!!!

Handlebar moustache when driving a retro Ferrari please, Tom.

Great video and I will look forward to more with this car , love the Patek as well

The definition of a classic car! On every boys wall in the 80's that was a car lover.

Great review mate, glad you have found such a fantastic example! Video was on point, editing, sound and camera angles all did the car justice. Keep enjoying the heck out of her!

Hey Tom, I was wondering which insta360 camera you have? The affiliate link to them in the description isn’t going to the correct page

Lovely looking car, absolute classic 👍 after watching your vid you’ve got to keep it, your enthusiasm is fantastic.

I always imagined the Testarossa to be like driving a barge in the real world so that's great that it isn't, brilliant video

Another really great video Tom tge. I love ferraris that is a great looking classic ferrari and sounds great as well. It suits you. Keep it on the channel more often. Looks awesome cash. Great video mate. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😀😀From Dan. M

“Buy your own & trash that” I really like your honesty it’s refreshing 👍👍

ive owned a lot of cars from other ferrari's to my corvettes and honestly, nothing gives me the feeling of my TR and none of them get more looks and compliments than my TR. All I've done was put 18in rims and modern day tires along with an exhaust and its perfect. You feel the road. You drive it and you get feedback ( not as raw as an F40 but similar) I do have the upgrade TR where you get the upgraded cooling, A/C and 5 lug rims but still, the heavy steering until you are moving is just amazing. (The best was the original "car phone" it came with along with the CD changer LOL) Kept it all but upgraded the stereo.

Goals Tom! Fair play mate exactly the sort of content proper car enthusiasts love

Was waiting for the driving video😀 its got huge presents even more on the road 😀👍

Yes, these are definitely under valued. It’s an Athena poster car and total cult classic. £250k might be a low prediction. Great buy!

Amazing car. I remember drawing one in art class at school. I probably put more effort into that car drawing than anything i've ever done. The exterior is classic. Amazing. The interior is strange looking by any standard. the seats are hilarious looking. bonkers sums it up perfectly. love it.

Stunning car , love the interior It would be nice to hear some more flat twelve noise in future videos personally I love the cars your buying , keep up The good work !

Love the classic content! Big respect you keep going with it even if it costs you money. Love the Targa more as am a Porsche nerd but this is stunning.

Really enjoyed this video. What a car! Excellent consumer advice on what trainers to wear when driving a testarossa! 😀

Loved that yellow ignis sport at 12:20 😂😂 top video again mate to match the car! 👍🏻

Looks stunning Tom. Made up for ya mate……. Also Tom loving your videography looking so much more professional now than a normal RU-vidr that you get every day…. Keep up the good work mate

People laughed at me 10 years ago I was 27 and I said dinos would sky rocket and everyone laughed and said it’s not even a real Ferrari and what happened? through the roof all major icon models eventually will hit the roof . Your car just hasn’t hit that old enough quite yet but in 6 -7 years u will see and where you can make 400 k in a bank in 7 years ? So you get an amazing car and a massive return classics are way to go man

Love it Tom. Very comprehensive and measured review 👏👏

What an utterly gorgeous and beautiful car. And fair play to you - I know those roads well, and I think it's quite rare to arrive home with all 4 wheels still attached, let alone have all of them still pointing in the right direction! They make the surface of the Moon look mirror-smooth

Loving seeing more classics on the channel, and on RU-vid. Definitely think the 355 GTS from your Classics Auction video needs to be in your garage as well.

Great video Tom, well worth the wait. Unfortunately I remember the launch!! 🤣🤓☀️

Im diggin’ all the classics lad, you have my support 💪🏼😎

Hi Tom, I was at the launch in the UK....I took so many photos of it...and your right jaws dropped it was stunning 💗💗💗💗💗💗 as is your example 😎😎😎😎😎😎

Wow Tom, great stuff. Do your own thing Lad, we will support you.

It's been a pleasure to watch you mature in life (partner,house,dogs) and your choice of cars. Looking forward to your next ' automotive fancy"😀

Great video on a true 80’s icon. Love to see more vids on modern classics. My poster car used to be a Countach until I was lucky enough to get a few rides in one both on road and track. The Testarossa is a far nicer and more comfortable cabin to spend time in. Not to mention that visibility out is way better.

Love the Testarossa Tom. Thank you for this. All the best mate 👍👍

Rate the attitude to the cars you buy and that you don’t care about the views. All your classic purchases imo are cash and I find it refreshing to see content like this rather than just more supercars tbh

Poster car, this and a black 911 turbo. Stunning spec, just perfect.

Lovely video Tom. Great to see you are building up some classic cars in your collection. I was wondering what plans you have for when E10 fuel hits the UK. Have you been advised by anyone if your older cars will be able to run on this fuel?

Great vid Tom, I love the Testarossa too, along with the Lamborghini Countach and look how prices of those have blown up.... both real big poster cars on my wall when growing up.

Excellent video. Reminds me of my time behind the wheel of a later model car seeing what it was all about many years ago. No comparison at all really 355 versus Testarossa. As a special occasion car now the Testarossa is the one. Ah "Out Run"! Pleased to see TGE out and about enjoying this car. As they said in the game "Keep it up!" Thank you.

18:49 All TR's seem to be that way. I've driven the 512m for some time, and despite being the final and refined evolution in the TR family, the brakes never really have that sure feeling stopping power. You gotta nearly stand on them to get any real stopping power out of them.

Lovely car and spec and i have to agree everyone loves a Testarossa.I think its a safe bet especially in spec and condition its in.You buy and film it and we shall watch it👍

Love the comments at 23:45. I did exactly all those things growing up ! That’s why the testarossa is so special !

I've GOT TO SAY THIS COULD BE THE COOLEST VID on the TGE channel what an absolute TREASURE!!!MEGA!!!

great buy lad. it's evident how you're passionate and love the car.

jeez the camera angle at the beginning he could've been driving a route master given the exaggerated angle of the steering wheel lol

Very nice car from the 80’s I still prefer the Ferrari 355 from the 90’s which is one of the best looking cars ever made by Ferrari and was once considered the best car in the world by the one and only Jeremy Clarkson

My friend has a 1990 model and it’s a workout to drive with the steering and clutch being heavy. Otherwise, it’s such a visual stunner with the side rakes and rear end.

Tom I love the new direction you taken, you are now a Brand that will gain a totally new audience. Top Lad!!!

I love the 512, personally like the BB a lot more but its cool to see someone younger than 50 driving in one. Keep it up the videos are great.

Lovely car as always Tom, always remember when they came out and saw one coming down the hill at Ale pali after racing car show and a coutach behind it. Would that be next for the car collection maybe😁

Lovely car, very 80s, remember the first one I saw on the road in Cornwall and head turning looks. It’s predecessor the 512 BB was some machine as well, the motoring press were pretty universal in loving that car and given the bold styling of the Testerossa took a while to get used to its looks albeit maybe tamer than the Countach..

Great to see this on the road but then I am old so love the old stuff so much more character than the modem stuff

Thx for the Classic content, I love it. Didn't realize the 288GTO (probably my preferred Ferrari with the F40) was now that pricy ! 3,500,000 € OMG !

Hello Good Sir, iconic Italian GT car with an awesome driving position and a big fun review video. Now, about that future Porsche 968 in Speed Yellow 😎 Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful Tom, dream car stuff 🔥

Keep it man probably best 80s looking car out there

Just amazing - great to see it being driven.

80's icon, bautiful and an easy drive too. They made lots but so dew in the early spec like yours. Great choice . Enjoy.

Great video. Your current collection is choice 👌

Lovely footage of an absolute classic on the classic roads of Surrey :-) Mid life crisis in full swing but sights set on the slightly more lowly golf GTI. Maybe I’ll aim higher in the name of investment.. great channel. Cheers

Sick car, loving these 80's/90's icons as its what i grew up with as well. Watching films like the cannonball run 🙌 Countach/F40 were my poster cars. 993 turbo as well from the bad boyz film

Amazing car someone in Cheltenham just bought one and in white just like Miami vice it’s amazing

Great, great vid Tom. Love this car and I can see you do too 😊👍🏼

Have you PPF’d it? Or is that bare paint?

Phenomenal car and an absolutely fantastic video!

This videos is epic, I love it. The car is amazing! So good to see it on the country roads, looking so good. Another epic Tom video! Your killing it with your content it’s amazing

my ultimate dream. thanks for that great video. I should listen to you and jump in now…

I love the classics Tom. A car lover is a car lover of all cars. Bring on the classics. Oh and I wish you still had your Pista, I'm devo thats gone

Black 42K miler on ebay for £65k, not exactly a plate glass showroom but awesome purchase Mr T

This channel’s business model shift is very clever. Very, very well done the move from where you were to here. Hats off. Fair play for being so subtly open about it over time as well.* *This may have been down to my slowness of understanding.

Gorgeous, had a picture of one on my bedroom wall through the 80's... jealous as hell 👍

The interior spec of this car is the best part to me, so appropriate for the car and that era of Ferrari.

A wise man once said ‘the box feels very tight’

Awesome vid TGE! The new Celine Homme Z's might be a bit easier on the down-shifts, just saying..

Classic car videos will stand the test of time, Great job!! How about a Diablo future?!

Enjoying the classic car videos on this channel.

@tge are you still keeping it? Paid a deposit for the black TR one today. Have auto gearbox license only but buying this one. Booked my test drive in Liverpool to have it quicker (live in London) for March but want to drive it already. Hope I will not regret.

Great Tom, now "just" Ferrari Daytona spider to complete "Miami Vice" theme! #MiamiVice #TheGumballRally 😎👌

It looks and sounds great Tom

The driving position is really ISA (Italilan Standard Ape). You need long hands and short legs and still the steering wheel is like in a truck. I think they got it right only in the 458 Italia. I think you could do a little steering column extension.

Congrats mate, she's a beauty. I agree with you in regards to the future appreciation as well. Just a matter of time.

Your car should have no horse on the front, and the matte black relief horse on the back. The chrome ones were never a factory option, but standard on the 512 TR onward.
