- On this episode of 'Tom Talks' we are joined in the showroom by McLaren CEO Zak Brown.
Tom takes Zak for a tour of the showroom, they discuss some of the cars we currently have in stock and we are sure you'll love it as our stock has never been so incredible at any one single time. From Formula One cars (which you won't be surprised to hear Zak has a soft spot for) to the likes of a Ferrari 250 GTO, the only surviving Le Mans winning Works Jaguar, Zagato bodied Aston Martin and Ferrari, a very special Alfa Romeo 8C 2900 plus a host of hypercard are just some of the treats you'll see and hear about.
If that's not enough, we hear more about Zak's love for cars, where it all started and he and Tom share some very interesting stories.
We hope you enjoy!
Not sure that there s another place on earth where you can casually walk in and admire a 250 GTO. Best show room ever.
how to tell if two people are rich rich: 'so which williams do *you* have?' 'Oh i have...'
Amazing. Two guys who have worked super hard to get where they are and have what they have, but neither come across as pretentious. Would love to listen to them talk for hours.
I like Zak brown I think he’s a good guy. You can tell his character. And Tom is coming into his element showing him around this. I’m enjoying this video. Some wonderful finery in that show room this time
I can imagine Tom. Get polishing lads. Zak Brown is coming. Maybe he’s bringing his cheque-book
Both experts, both passionate and both wildly successful in their respective disciplines.
One of the best “car talk” videos on youtube right now. Next level knowledge
Wow, thanks!
The line from Zac around the three minute mark about how much value the car increased in a few short years is what these videos are all about. Brilliant, yet subtle marketing Tom.
The best Tom talks so far!!
Zak is my idol....i bleed mclaren...so grateful to him the way he turned mclaren around
Tom’s knowledge is unbelievable. Fascinating video to watch.
Thanks!
Gotta say, Zak is such a breath of fresh air in F1. Love what he's done with McLaren and looking forward to them being a contender in 2025 and beyond.
Came by this by accident but what a great entertaining, interesting way to spend 40 minutes. Two men who really love their cars, A man who owns Andretti's 79 lotus which I saw at the 79 British GP, (last time I saw my hero Ronnie Peterson before he died later that year) has my admiration. Will be watching more of your videos Tom.
Great video.
Im a big fan of Zak.
Always happy to do interviews and share things with the public.
Knows what He's good at and does it well.
Deep down, just a car guy, but a student of motor racing history.
Id love to spend an afternoon with him over a couple of beers just talking cars.
Slim Borgudd was a Swedish racing driver. I was at a Swedish Kubb Alfa meeting at Karlskoga race track in 1976. Alfa Romeo Sweden had employed Slim for the day to demonstrate the current Alfa line up and I was very fortunate to be driven round the track by Slim in a new alfetta 1.8gt. The way he threw that bog standard brand new car round the track has stayed with me for 50 years. RIP Slim.
Tom Hartley greatest of all time. Only 12 good 250GTOs in the world? now that's a spicy topic!
Incredibly high quality content - Brilliant.
Zak is a fan. A true fan and it's amazing to see.
I'm a supporter (fan) of the background people who drive and influence the sport.
Zak is in my top 5 people who are great ambassadors for the industry/sport.
Mr. Brown, you have my respects.
What a video, keep it for posterity. Thanks
I could listen to these two chat about cars all day. Amazing collection and so much knowledge. Love Zak, such a nice guy.
Didn't think I would watch this whole video and now I am at the end wishing it was twice as long. Great stuff Tom & Zak
We're glad you enjoyed it!
My neighbour worked, as a mechanic, with Slim Borgudd during the 70's, including a lot of time in Sweden, and has quite a few great stories about their time together.
Very nice thank you! Dream makers together…
@ THJ please don’t ever give up that fanatical passion you have for cars ❤ it’s incredible
Could watch/listen to this conversation literally allllll day long. Absolutely love the channel and love the content. Keep up the phenomenal work! Thank you gentlemen for the excellent convo.
Glad you enjoy it!
Thank you, Sirs. This episode was as informative as it was emotional. Zak Brown is a really interesting man, and this episode has made me a fan of him. Sirs, thank you very much for doing this show. It was time well spent.
cannot express how fond i am watchign this episode, really apprecaite for the production
Two of my favourite car guys ever. You have to admire Zack and Tom they are real, say it like it is. Great roll-models for generations to come. Great work gents keep kicking-ass and taking names!
17:10 I’ve just had a nosy at the last time a 250 GTO sold. I think it was in the region of about €48 million. And this is a nice one that Tom has there.
FANTASTIC interview and episode with 2 of the most humble multi millionaires ive ever seen. So knowledgeable. My new favourite, Hartley. Dont change ,either of you
Top tier content. Two automotive connoisseurs
Cheers!
Tom Jnr is the only Hartley I like to watch, the other two are, sorry to say, but seem to be up their own backsides
Excellent as always. Just need to get Bernie on!
Who knows!...
Keep your art galleries, THAT'S my art gallery!
Great stuff.
Many thanks Tom.
These vlogs are the only chance most of us ever get to actually hear about cars like this.
2 blokes/friends talking cars with absolut calm. Made me feel nostalgic. Great VIdeo Tom. Best wishes from Germany!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can't believe Brown walked out without either the '75 Lauda Ferrari or the MP4-22.
What incredible Knowledge Tom has
Possibly the best Tom talks,immense knowledge and enthusiasm, I loved every minute.
Two classy guys! Enjoyed it immensely. Thank you.
What a genuine guy. Good Edition.
Great video. 288 GTO one of my all time favourites, ever since I saw one at The Patrick Collection in Birmingham many years ago. Just wish Zak hadn't interrupted Tom mid-sentence on multiple occasions when he was about to say something interesting!
Fantastic video of two really classy knowledgeable car guys. Thank you ,what a great Privelidge to see these two.
Our pleasure!
This was a great watch. I've always liked Zak from watching F1. Comes across well in this.
Great video. Zak has done a terrific job turning around McLaren, and is a really good guy!
We agree!
Love it! Thanks for another superb episode. Two of my favourite gentlemen.
There are some people I just like, Zak is diffnetly one of those guys, and I am delighted to see his hard work with all McLaren come to match RedBull. He has worked so hard. Who would have said that McLaren would be up there being competitive to RedBull last year. Cool, he is also a Nigel Mansell, which is my favourite driver, also. Ayrton Senna was special, but Mansel for me. After leaving Williams,(great suspension) 😉 Mansell moved to Ferrari and always remembered Mansel following Senna at Monoco for half that race. He had the speed but there was no way past for therest of the race, finishing in second & completely exhausted, a class driver. He also won in his second year at the Indi-car Championships in the United States. I also remember Prost saying, "Ayrton has a problem he believes he can't kill himself," and that I remember too. Ayrton Senna was special and maybe more talented, but he had flaws, sorry. McLaren has made Formula One much more exciting, thanks to Zak Brown and people like him, such as Toto for bloody Mercedes.😅 I love the room, you must be loaded. 😅 John Lennon & Yokos car, man. Can I have the Porschue 959 will do nicely, failing that the P1, yeah? Lol 👍 😆 🤣 😂 😹 Slainte ❤
41:46 P. S. All the best to McLaren for the rest of the season to Zak Brown and all the McLaren team. ❤🎉 I'm still a RedBull fan, tell nobody)😅 (TH-cam Gold).❤
I was lucky enough to meet Zak when UA participated in BTCC. He is genuinely one of the nicest guys and his knowledge of cars, drivers and motorsport in general is amazing and his passion so obvious.
The Art and The Artisans come together to present the world with a master piece.
Phenomenal.
Absolutely fantastic video. Love the honesty and pure passion ❤
Thanks so much!
Ah ha imagine pulling up at Screwfix next door and watching Zak hop out his car 😂
Amazing seeing all these cars and hearing you both talk so passionately about them. I would love to see all these cars in person and Zak's collection. Simply awesome!
MY GOD !!!!!! what a interview ,, piece ,, brilliant
That was great. I love listening to Zac and his passion for motorsport. His passion is showing with Mclaren and there progress up the field.
Always one of the most thought provoking, intelligent channels on You Tube. The vehicles are always exquisite.
Great video Tom and Zak
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow he is a proper car guy great to see he is not just another suit running a car company. Could listen to you two talk cars all day and learn so much.
So good, I had to watch the video twice to adsorb all the knowledge shared in the video!
We are pleased!
What an absolute joy! Impecable video! Without a doubt, one of the best walkarounds available...
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Tom great to see both of you just shooting the breeze great post and great cars as well
Thanks David.
So much history in one place it’s AMAZING
Fantastic video! Thank you! 😃
Glad you liked it!
What a fantastic video for me best yet both so knowledgeable both these guys 👍 super content thanks Tom.
1:56 Few zip from that corona but Zak already feeling it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If you’re wondering, Tom really is as down to earth and personable in the flesh as he is in the video 😊
Fantastic video. Only recently started getting the "older" car bug and its purely down to these Tom Talks!
Showroom tour? Museum tour. What a collection.
What a great video Tom, such incite and like watching two mates just talk (amazing) cars.
I thought i knew a lot about cars 😂
THJ just on a completely different level.
Fascinating to listen to them speak with such authority and knowledge.
What a fantastic video with 2 guys I could listen to and learn from forever thanks gents
This was so so so good. Thank you for the time and effort! I watched it twice😊
Incredible video!! I didn’t know Zak was this type of collector very cool!!
Love these walk around videos - Zak is awesome too and a true petrolhead
Glad you like them!
Could be 3 hours long with Zak talking motorsport especially. 👌🏽
Class video thank you Tom for taking us with you for these chats
Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 bravo 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼, I love this channel, but this has been my favorite episode thus far, I loved it ❤. Outstanding, pure and simply great. I so wish I could be there hanging out and drinking a Corona 🍺, chatting with these two icons of the automotive world ☺️
Glad you enjoy it!
Just a 80 mill 250 GTO casually sitting in the collection. My fav car since I was a kid and had my prized burago model
Loved this one mate. Had a thought, if you pour the coloured half of the head first the clear would seep around the colour, in the same way the green did in this vid, creating a clear finish you can just polish. You could also paint or finish the flat side of the coloured piece, say black, then it wouldn’t reflect through the clear half like the green did? Hope that all makes sense or can be helpful.
Great video Tom, fascinating discussion between you & Zak.
What an unbelievably insane collection of cars. The insanity only matched by the incredible level of knowledge.
Zac, every credit and Thankyou for being the way you are👍🏻
I enjoyed that video, great tour and Zak was really into it all.
Each video and guest gets better, great content.
Glad you like them!
Fantastic video. Thank you so much for sharing the amazing anecdotes and great company 🙏👌🏁
Really enjoy your videos Tom very classy and a great knowledge, also Zak such a passion for race cars and motorsport history.
Thanks for the comment!
Can’t stand Zac, he’s;knowledgeable,passionate,interesting,likeable,levelheaded,cool af,seriously loaded,owns McLaren and has almost nothing in common with me! Brilliant video!!😂
Nice and great connection with the handshake at the end 🤝 💥
Zak is an awesome guy. 288 is my dream car.
Yes, the 'Camel' Williams livery started in 1985 with Rosberg and Mansell. Then, 'Rothmans' from 1994 to 1997.
right up there as one of the best videos you have done....a breath taking collection of motoring history and style.
Wow, thanks!
What a nice bloke ! I can say I have something in common with Mr Brown. I had a VW Jetta as well.
41:34
That moment when you and bro get a strong connection on a handshake
Watching you both give s me inspiration to collect more cars 😂
Two mins in and I love it. Bet Zak didn't bring the cheque book!!
Great content. Such a likeable guy.
Much appreciated!
Wow, what a class act. Thank you.
Would love to see Zac’s collection on here.
"people who know 288's"...
Yep, we're out here Zak 👊🏽
A short cut button for the camera views in the Seal is on the steering wheel.
Enjoyed that, thanks
That Orange Muira... Was that the same one on display in Goodwood last week? Looks like it
It certainly was! Good spot!
