- 120hp, a lot of kerb weight and only four forward gears. But I had an ex- Formula One driver with me, so surely we wouldn't be the slowest car out there? Let the fun begin.

Post-Race Beers with Chris Harris and David Coulthard should be a regular prime time show
First time I've seen this side of David Coulthard. Had no idea he is so witty and funny, what a cool guy! If ever there could be one, he would make a great replacement for JC on Top Gear!
He's Scottish. What do you expect? Of cause he's funny. Glad Cris parked the suit again. Not fitting for him.
the man with the crazy face made me so happy. im not sure why. the pureness of the competition, the joy you can see in his actions. i know your grin was also massive Mr. Harris; mine sure was.
It's like when you're driving down the motorway in a very slow car racing your mate who's also in an awfully slow car struggling to get past 80 😂
@@jasonlongo6823 I once raced a Mercedes w124 220 16valve estate, against a volvo 945 turbodiesel, with a screwdriver tuned injection pump,and i lost...i dont think we even got up to 160kph before we had to brake ;´)
@@oljefri hahah brilliant
Best show ever? Get David Coulthard, Chris Harris and Guy Martin and tell them to do what they want...
YES!
lol these guys are hilarious together!!! Top tier banter.
Top GEAR banter.
@@RgW00D Damn. BBC should pair the two of them together.

".....she's not a climber...." I was crying.
She's a gusher...
Great seeing DC swearing and acting like a proper racing driver having a laugh with his mates
That is almost [racing stuff aside] what my step-grandfather brought back from his '63 trip to Europe, and drove well into the 1990's. He served with the Marines in WW-1, and later, in 1941, he became a Drill Sargent for the US Army, as the Marines didn't accept recruits older than 40. Thus he was involved with both World Wars, yet only served in the first.
His Mercedes was his pride and joy, and I was lucky enough to ride in it a good 20 times in the late 60's-early 70's as a kid. The Vertical Speedo/Tach was always fun to watch, and the seats were incredible. I can't say much of the handling, other than it made my dad's Fords seem, um, sluggish in corners. I would later find a similar ride in my parent's Volvo 240 DL, in the mid 70's..
"Over steer will come right before impact" - Bahaha, made me laugh so hard!
I absolutely love the fact that so many professionals respect Chris. So many cheesy and untalented journalists out there, but Chris nails it every time and that consistency gives him serious credibility. Go Chris!
Another great vid Chris! Thank you. What a great chap DC is. Look forward to seeing a future vid of you two.
This and tuned are easily my favourite youtube car shows! Look forward to them each week :D Keep it up!
Love it. Great video, and a classic quote from Mr. Coulthard. "Oversteer will come just before impact."
Need more Chris & David in your episodes. The 2 of them are a blast to watch.
Awesome vid again. Chris you are the best! I also like the fact that you're not on the tellie twice a week like some 'others'. Just continue to drip feed us with quality, unassuming, honest and utterly likeable productions.
These two on topgear world kill me
Good point man, they would be great!
So great!! Thanks for putting this up! Seems like a blast.
Great Video, as always. Thank you, Chris.
I just love Chris Harris!! His videos are so cool and you really feel the passion running in his veines!!
It was just awesome to meet him in person at Spa last month!!
LOL Coulthard is hilarious!
This is the best this channel has ever offered me. And that says a lot. Thanks
Best motoring videos on TH-cam , Chris, thanks very much.
My Grand Dad bought one new. He took delivery at the factory. Then spent a Month long touring vacation.
M B then shipped it to the New Jersey docks in the USA in 1965. I was 8 years old at the time. Great trip down Memory Lane!!
I've been waiting all week for this.
Chris is at his best @ Historic Racing, and DC is a crack-up!
One of the best CH videos. His videos are so good.
Another hall-mark to the greatness that is DRIVE and Chris Harris on Cars. Effin fine episode!
Truly loved this episode !
Two big thumbs up.
luv the banter at the end, never a dull moment ;)
Damn, Chris and David make a great team. This was epic, I can't wait for them actually complete the race in something faster. Please do it!
David is such a cool guy!!!
I never even imagined that I would like him that much....
Cool stuff!!!!
Well done once again!
Superb. I was never a Coulthard fan but he seems a great guy, more of these please!
Another brilliant video Chris, I am looking forward to seeing you and DC at the Ring again.
Fantastic Mr Coulthard, Mr Harris... Funnier then top gear and better driving!
Amazing video and brings back some memories of the ring! More videos of these two together please!!!
Awesome show guys. Thanks for a quality show.
I love the enthusiasm Chris gives on a car. Doesnt matter if its a supercar or a slow 220 like this.
WAS WAITING FOR THIS ALL DAY
THANKS
Chris is the man, and as usual the best videos can be be found here every week. Please get your own show......
Fantastic. Harris is like a kid in a sweet shop. I hope we see more of coultard on Drive.
Loved the other Merc driver at around 15 giving a thumbs up and wave, the pure enjoyment of the moment. So good.
Man who doesn't love David after a video like that? fantastic!!!
Cracking piece, and what a presenting pair! Harris and DC on cars?..... Nice work boys
This is the greatest thing I've ever watched. Coulthard and Harris epic combination
Coulthard is hilarious! hahahaha
I do hope they do some sort of race/test again in the near future, great episode!
awesome video!! maybe even the best so far!
Bitburger - Bitte ein Bit' had me laugh really hard :D Great stuff, Chris :D
Indeed! :D
This is how they say it in some regions for sure!!
now thats a proper gentlemans race when both drivers can give friendly greetings to each other on a straight
Love this video! Thanks, guys.
A whole new found level of respect for DC, such a nice guy.
Chris delivers YET again. Wednesdays have never been the same since
Great story Chris. Thank you guys.
Nicely done Mr Harriss with this episode.
Only Chris Harris can make me watch videos with old cars in it and really enjoy it! :D
DC is an absolute class act .. and always has been. Great to see 2 of my faves together. Wouldn't it be great to see the Monkey and DC on Top Gear ... hmmmm .. My fave 'Chris Harris on cars' vid without doubt.
Great to see. These things are so much fun -not quick but seriously fun.
Brilliant episode!!!
Hahaha David is so hilarious :D really awesome guy :D
Fantastic. Both legends!
Chris Harris is awesome as always. What was a real eye opener was David Coulthard being so hilarious! Love the sense of humour on that man!
This was great! Chris at his full potential.
Great video, thanks team
awsome. great use of commentary and action.
Great episode! I'd love to see the guys team up and hit the 'ring again with some other beast in the same event or similar.
Bloody brilliant - thanks!
Nice video! And DC is a fantastic dude!
We had an SE with the same engine/gearbox. Good video Chris!
Looks like awesome fun! DC is fracking hilarious! I was LOL the whole time.
Glad to see Chris Harris pound around the circut, even if David broke the car. You can do well with a under powered car, just look at what the original Mini accomplished back in the 60's. I hope to see more of this duo soon. Thanks.
Chris, that was brilliant!
That was awesome, DC is much better doing stuff with Chris than on the beeb. More please!!!!
That man is a legend! Knew he was down to earth, but come on! Such a nice guy!
Two great guys with class.
The fintail Mercedes are adorable. Nerdy, stodgy in just the right ways.
Chris and David you are so funny together, I think I had more laughs in 22 mins (which is about your lap time) than in a entire episode of Top Gear
that is the first elderly german person I have seen, who can actually speak proper english. respect!
Hehehe! Great car and drivers, plus this could be a great series "Classic Ring Laps" or something. But even if that's a no go, at least I now know I don't want a Lotus Elise. I want a Fintail Merc
David is gonna get Chris in trouble, haha. Those damn party boy race car drivers haha. Great video guys
Truly entertaining ... More like this!
Awesome banter and chemistry. Would love to see another team-up!
Always loved the ‘60s 220, never thought I’d see one ‘race’ though. Bitburger, ooh yes please.
Great episode Chris!
can't wait to see you guys team up again!
Finally! A 20+ minute Chris Harris video!
Love Love Love this vid!!
Chris got a little choked up there at the end. Dude is the real deal, I look forward to all of his videos.He reminds me of Harry Metcalfe.
I love David. He´s on very much the same page as Kimi Raikkönen, just a whole bit more open.
Great guy.
How about Mika Häkkinen
Best job in the world ! Top guys Chris an David
Even though the car was crap and Chris was the slowest I really enjoyed this video.
Chris and David seemed to get on very well and lets face it David is a funny guy, sence of humour is spot on.
Nice one Drive
this may be the funniest thing I have seen in racing ever....omg...I love it
In spite of the hiccups, this was a great clip! I'd love to see these guys team up again.
David Coulthard is probably one of the best people around racing. RB respects him and calls him to drive on their events, Mercedes as well, all in all no one ever said bad word about him :)
I didn t realize David was such a funny humble guy, seems like a genuine nice guy.
Oh god that moment when he almost passed the blue car was hilarious! And Coulthard is such a nice chap! :)
Brilliant! I want more!
wonderful - more classic racing please!
Great combo of presenters. DC is a proper gent and funny too! Great video.
Even if these two had a show about driving around in a golf buggy for half an hour, I'd still watch it.
These guys are going to make Top Gear worth watching
These 2 should seriously team up for future shows. Heck a new show even, that would be awesome.
Awesome!!! Greetings from Norway :)
