On the road with a Mazda MX5 and the Genesis GV60. Do electric cars take the fun out of driving?
As enthusiasts many of us drive for fun. We love the sound of that engine, the pleasure of flicking through the gears, and the satisfaction of working with the dynamics of a well sorted combustion engined car. Protecting the planet will soon bring an end to all that, and we will soon mostly be driving electrically powered vehicles. In this video we tackle the question by driving both, not by way of back to back comparison as they are very different cars, but simply to find out which of the two ‘concepts’ gives greatest pleasure behind the wheel.

Porsche 911 (992) GT3
มุมมอง 2.8K2 ปีที่แล้ว
'This Porsche 911 (992) GT3 is about as pure as you’ll get to experiencing the limit of a road car that is equally a stonking performer on track.You buy this car with a purpose, and that is to drive it for fun. It may not have the everyday comfort of the 911 S, the ‘sweet-spot’ GTS, or even GT3s of old; we say that’s because the bar has been lifted once again, but can this GT3 do what its prede...

Dino 246 & Ferrari F8 Tributo - Driven by passion
มุมมอง 1.8K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Many of us, as car enthusiasts, have a favourite brand. For me, Ferraris’ have always been special, and it has been an absolute privilege to have driven so many of them over the years.

Racing Puma - One of Ford's Best.
มุมมอง 1.9K3 ปีที่แล้ว
The Ford Racing Puma was a limited edition performance model building on the unexpected best selling popularity of the original Ford Puma. (1997-2002) Selling at £23,000, the Racing Puma was a hefty £10,000 more to buy over the standard car. Ford originally intended to make 1000 of these limited edition specials but in the end only made 500, and the one featured in our video was owned by our pr...
The New Ferrari Roma
มุมมอง 2.4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Ferrari’s new Roma is a game changer for 2021. We were amongst the first to drive it in the UK on road and track and loved it! Whilst inevitably drawing comparison to the similarly front engined V8 Portofino, the Roma is a new and very different car, and a direct competitor to Porsche’s 911, Aston’s Vantage, and Bentley’s Continental GT. The Roma, however, does things ‘the Ferrari way’ and as w...
