    In a Great classic city, in a great classic car.
    It's has a kind of romance, being at night.

    There's something very therapeutic about watching someone drive their classic about. For me, the best way to see London, through someone else's lens!

    Great pictures of your lovely car and London’s lights. Your MGB GT is certainly better looking than a Porsche! Thanks for sharing.

    London is a great city and very photographic in the evening light. The MG looked great in your stills. I did something similar aa out 15 years ago in my Triumph Stag only still shots. Thanks for an interesting view of London. Cheers Bob

      Thanks Bob! Yes, it was fun getting up there and taking a few snaps, seemed like the right time to do it too with less traffic on the road 👍

    Thanks for making such a great vid, reminding me the first time in London as a backpacker in 2014.Even though I havent been to ride on a MGB , it is seems to be good for night drive

    That was a very neat tour of London. I only spent one day and night in London about 25 years ago. We stayed near Knights Crossing. We were able to see quite a bit in one day, but by nighttime we were falling asleep at dinner, having been up about 36 hours trying to shift from Chicago time. That was a treat. Good work.

    Great video, haven't been to London for a few years. Lovely to see it at night. And much better in an MG than a Porsche of course, mind you a Triumph GT6 would be even better 🤣🤣

    • @granblogismo

      @@granblogismo I wouldn't mind another one, sold my old mk2 about 20 years ago now, it's the car I wish I had hung on to! Used to take it to car shows etc and there was always lots of friendly rivalry between the Triumph and MG crowd 🤣

    Always hard to get the music right, what with copyright and some people disliking whatever you use but I think it went great with this video!
    Great work!
    You may have covered this before but couldn't find anything on it, what camera do you use to film at night with?

    • @granblogismo
      @granblogismo  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! Yes music always a bit contentious but worth experimenting I think to see what works! The camera I use for most of my videos (day and night) is a DJI Osmo Action (similar to a GoPro) and I’m pleased with what it can do! Other times I just use my phone for convenience or for photos like in this vid, sometimes I use an older GoPro for when I’m filming a second angle whilst driving but that’s showing it’s age a bit, likely to get a new GoPro at some point just because they are so versatile (much like the Osmo action), hope that helps! Cheers!

      Keep up the great work!👍

    • @granblogismo
      @granblogismo  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh right! Good to know about the GoPro in low light, I just assumed it would be similar to the Osmo Action.... I suppose the bits of London I drove through were fairly well lit for the most part but still night-time obviously

    Nice! I've not ventured into London in my 73 B roadster yet, but I might now, having seen this! (I live just inside the south section of the M25, so not difficult for me.) By the way, are those 15" minilites? They look more impressive than my 14" ones, but that might just be because they're shinier! :D

    • @granblogismo
      @granblogismo  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Stephen, yep these are 15 inch and have a polished rim for extra shininess 😂

  • @lascm5237
    @lascm5237 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video, really good pics and overall a lovely idea but the music really spoiled it for me - would have been great to hear the car and sounds of London etc.?

    • @granblogismo
      @granblogismo  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s a tricky one getting the audio right for this kind of drive. I’ve done many videos where I’ve focused on the sound of the car and it works when you’re on a run and foot down and cut different angles regularly to keep people engaged but when you’re in stop start traffic the sound is actually very uninspiring at a crawl.... but then again the music is always divisive due to taste and the limited choice in the free to use audio library 🤣 Thanks for the feedback, I always like to try new stuff and see what works so I’ll consider doing a more raw version of this another time, ideally a clone of Claude Lelouch’s ‘C’était un rendez-vous’ !!

    • @lascm5237
      @lascm5237 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      granblogismo Cool 😁 Never get tired of watching that. Then again I understand he used a sodding great Merc with a Ferrari soundtrack? Make sure you use the MGB and not a GTO 😂

    • @granblogismo
      @granblogismo  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ha yeah I think that’s right, used the merc to keep the camera steady then Ferrari noises added over the top or something! Great bit of film though... thanks for watching and for the comment 👍
