Is this TH-cam car video heaven??
Another amazing film!!
Well if you put it like that, I think it could be YT heaven :)
Thanks for tuning in X
So True Jhett, it is old school youtube but with professional production quality and all the better for it. It is so refreshing to see someone live their passion and share it freely with others who have similar passions and that be all the reward they need.
This guy is the owner that EVERY Classic car deserves. Top guy!
So true! There are a few people I know like George but they are in the minority
@@KiddinaSweetShop - George is so enthusiastic - and that’s contagious. It’s so refreshing to see a collector who wants to enjoy the capability of his cars, rather than seeing his cars as investment instruments frozen in time in order to hold their value.
@@davidsherley2652 EXACTLY. My parents see their vehicles as economic investments. Hence why they don't want me driving the family truck which I LOVE to drive just so I don't put miles on it.
This is how I wish I could be more with my classics but I always seem to have a need to know I can get somewhere on time and I default to modern reliability too much! But every time I get in a classic I feel I just want to keep driving! It helps that George’s car is pretty well sorted mechanically by the look / sound of it! Most of the time my drives conclude with a new list of things I need to fix 🤣
Check his dads car collection out……legendary…..2x 250GTO’s
This is how you own classic cars! Use them , drive them and let people see them. Great episode Jodie , really good stuff.
Thanks for watching Adam :)
The 275 is a beautiful car. Love the fact this dude actually drives and enjoys it. So many people squirrel them away, treat them like china cups, and just polish them. massive respect to George, and thanks for showing it to us.
I forgot just how GOOD the 240Z looks! ... (Japanese car making at it's best!)
Sitting on the other side of the screen, I can't help but to grin from ear to ear. ☺
"That GTB" is such a happy happy car.
is is a beauty!
An excellent series, Jodie. Please keep them coming.
No plans to stop anytime soon :)
I’m an ordinary guy (unfortunately) dream of owning a lovely classic car like this, but actually, I’m really pleased for this guy not jealous, love his passion and attitude. Good for you my friend. Good for you.
Because the value of these cars have reached stratospheric levels it’s great to see that someone like George is using it whenever he can and not just being used as a static show piece ! Great job Jodie. You clearly enjoyed driving that beautiful car! Well just a bit! 😜
This one in particular is worth MULTIPLE millions, alloy and rhd, that's almost 1 first prize euromillions in a car
George… what a man. It’s how every classic car should be used. Yes there should be immaculate examples to preserve history but enjoying the machines speaks volumes. And he has a passion for watches/horology which resonates with me. George 🎩 off
Thank you for letting us view this car. The 275 has been my favorite Ferrari since I was a teenager in the 80’s. I love the fact that this car gets driven like it was meant to be.
Me too! Xx
I'm watching this again as it popped up in my feed after a few months and I find that the conversation between the two of you is every bit as enjoyable as watching you in the car. Really a lovely video. Thanks! 👍👍👏👏
Cleaning and polishing is over-rated. Love seeing owners share their treasures.
So do I! X
Might just be the most beautiful car ever made. Definitely my personal favourite. And all credit to the owner for using it, a car like this deserves to be driven
This has got to be one of the best 275 GTB clips I have ever seen. I highly commend George for driving it regularly as it was meant to be driven and not relegated to being a trailer queen. All the senses abound to this nirvana on the road and eye candy wherever it is parked. Don't know what future generations will have to enjoy regarding transport but am thankful to the here and now with gems like this. Absolutely fabulous..
Thanks!! It’s just wonderful
Fabulous! This isn't just a car to him - it's his best friend and he enjoys spending time with it. I'd love to hear what it is that breaks down and has him getting home on the back of trucks as often as he says. 👍❤
Hey Jodie,
Great video, I particularly liked hearing the discussion between you and George about his experience with the car. Wonderful that he seems like a genuine enthusiast.
“Making a journey an event”. In the age of ever busier roads and electric cars a lovely nod to the past.
Well said and same, the car is in great hands with George!
One of the most beautiful cars ever built.Simply stunning.
Agreed!
Probably the best looking car ever, I almost get tears just looking at it. Great video
What fantastic show of love for a beautiful car.
Couldn't agree more!
If I have the money and I can only own one car in my life, the long nose 275/GTB will be it. I won't need another - ever. And I will drive it like this guy. Fantastic machine and the most eye catching Ferrari as far as I'm concerned.
It’s unreal!!
Love the fact that it has a few stone chips, means that it's being driven and enjoyed. Great episode Jodie, thanks.
Beautiful car. Hat off to the owner for using it and making the roads more exciting!
Such a stunning car x
Fantastic. What a car and what a sound.
It is such a special car! One of my faves
What a dream to get to drive a 275 GTB. That sound, that long bonnet, gorgeous steering wheel.. one of the greatest Ferrari's ever. I have 575M and drive it as often as I can.. this just made me want to drive it more. Love JKs enthusiasm, she's such a great car "guy". 👍
Thanks 😊
Really enjoying Kidd in a sweatshop ❤️🙏🏽
Me too! Thanks for watching
Great video and that is one stunning car it's great to see an old V12 classic getting used every other day and not locked away in a garage .oh and the smile on you're face when you took the week is priceless.👍👍
Such a joy to know this car gets used and driven as intended! George is the perfect custodian
Having driven the 4-cam version (before they became unaffordable) it is such a far standout to all other cars I have driven. I agree that this would be the one to keep for me. The hand crafting is fun in its flaws, but the sound is truly beautiful. The steering and gearbox is amazingly tactile. Its an amazing GT car even in today's terms you can comfortably cruise long distance at over 100mph.
This iconic Ferrari 275 Gtb is just amazing and also the video it just makes us feel like we’re driving it. Crazy 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 enjoy it.
The perfect start to the bank holiday weekend! Yesssss 🙌🏻
Happy holidays!
Every designer who has ever lived has been inspired by some portion of this car. I see dino, corvette, jaguar, spyder . My god this is beautful.
Isn’t it just!
Excellent episode Jodie! Your enthusiasm and pure excitement for the cars and people are what has drawn me into your channel. Today’s video with George and his 275 GTB is the best yet! The cars draw us in, the people make us stay. Now if I could just afford one of the many very cool Bamford watches….aspirations are good!
Thanks for tuning in for this episode, I loved filming this one! Well said too about cars and people! See you next time
Another excellent episode Jodie, that's one of the few vintage Ferrari's I've not driven so thanks for the insight
The revs!
I like Jodie's passion for these cars.
I just love the fact that it gets driven regularly. Excellent.
my god the black paint on it it's like a beautifully crafted piano, stunning. Loving your video Joddie!!!
Absolutely fabulous in every respect.
Look forward to the next instalment.
Cheers
Chris
Good on Mr. Bamford for driving this beauty as was intended. Great video
Fantastic art on wheels and good person this George let you drive his 275. Enjoy the car and drive it as much as possible :)
Excellent video, Jodie. Enzo was a truly genius, the 60's Ferraris are simply the best cars ever made.
Thanks for watching :)
Enjoyed that! I'll have a look at your other episodes!
Wow, what a car…. That noise is spectacular…..
Just passed my Driving test in 1978 I drove one of these down to DK engineering for restoration on behalf of a friend A memorable journey,as the silver car was running rough.After a full refufbishment to red and tan interior the car looked georgeous.I remember the reg WER 5 .I seem to remember that Eric Stewart of 10cc fame then bought her,,,Cheers John.
Cool!!! xx
absolutely beautiful piece of automotive sculpture
You can fix the driving experience of SO many modern cars by switching to a higher profile……. The obsession with ever lower profiles gives such rigidity in the side wall, to not allow any give…..
Also, with these ultra low profile tyres, when they reach their limit…. they tend to let go completely….. whereas, you can feel the lean, the give in the tyres….
Another slice of passion 💝
Wonderful to see someone who really drives their beautiful car. George, your passion for this car is wonderful and Jodie's smile lit up the page. Enjoy that car for many more years.
Glad you enjoyed it Ian!
Gives me goosebumps listening to the car and the passion in your voices! Love it!
Great to hear x
@@KiddinaSweetShop if you ever want to take my 06 C4S a hurl down East Lothian’s coast roads your more than welcome! 😉
Another Brilliant Video And Timeless Classic Ferrari SuperCar All The Best To You.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great vid Jodie; thank you.Mr Bamfords car is a stunner just like you!
The figures and proportions of this car are so sweet. It just looks so perfect, even just as a car. Heart bursting stuff!
Gorgeous isn’t it x
Another amazing video Jodie! The camera views and sounds are just awesome!
Thank you very much!
ahhh quel 12…paradiso…che ferro che eleganza e sportivita’ nello stesso tempo…grazie Enzo❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My favourite car. Great to see it being driven as intended and enjoyed. Such a wonderful sound. I'm very envious.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tough job driving this beauty Kidd. You lucky lucky lucky girl .
Great interview, great car, great owner..
Great job, Jodie. Having fun with an amazing motorcar is all the world. Thank you,
Absolutely! Thank you 🙏🏼
I have been watching your channel all morning, what a great find, you gotta love a guy who owns a car like this and actually uses it!! I can only imagine how awesome the driving experience is!! Its got quite a nice growl to it as opposed to the screaming F50 V12, both are insanely awesome engines in their own right....
❤️❤️❤️
keep going Jodie. Love to see a road trip.
Wow what a machine! Has to be one of the most beautiful cars ever with an utterly gorgeous sound. Thank you Jodie.
Couldn't agree more!
Love seeing your videos. Keep the quality up.
Glad you like them!
Stunning Car and I am so pleased to see it being driven and not a plinth in a museum somewhere. Lucky You to get to drive it.
I look forward to seeing more of your videos. 😀👍🇨🇦
Kudos Kidd. Love the way you rev out these cars. Drive them like you’re supposed to 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Built to be driven!
@@KiddinaSweetShop 💯
This guys a legend. Doing what these cars were built for. Driving and enjoying them. Not say as a garage queen
🙌🏼
This was excellent Jodi. Thank you.
thank you :)
What a great series of videos,can't wait to see what is next.Roadgoing Lola T70 perhaps?
I've been to that house and been in his garage and seen his amazing car collection.. I went there to collect his R8 GT for a service in Wakefield..took me ages to find it under all of the covers over the cars.
Loving this channel Jodie 👍
Crazy thing
Awesome. Keep up the good work Jodie
Thank you :)
Cool guy & matched with the right outlook of enjoying such a classic car. Lucky chap
He’s brill :)
What a fantastic car.... The sound is absolutely awesome.
Isn’t it just!
Jodie, you have the BEST friends!!!
They’re splendid!
Fun video Jodie! I love that the owner wants his car to come alive, has too many miles to count and not be a ‘show pony’.
As a classic car owner myself, mine has been in need of a flatbed several times. On the one hand, it’s a drop in the bucket compared to the driving enjoyment; but on the other hand, I always find it a stressful experience, even though passers by often offer assistance - it’s hard to get used to.
This was awesome!
What a car! Love this episode a lot! So good that a car like this actually used to drive so much as possible.
Agreed! Thanks
Beautiful car. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Lee
Two cool souls just enjoying life. Thanks for the excellent content.
Thank you!
We are absolutely in ore of this Chanel Jodie. Thank you ✌🏼🙏🏼
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Just FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
Nice car, lucky guy. Life dealt him a good hand.
Jodi!
I LOVE cars that get used! Fab video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 😁
Awesome video! I loved you said "it's a short nose but the bonnet is still long" hehe it's actually a long nose GTB/C or has alot of competitie spec stuff on it alu. body, flaired arches and the unique creases on the fenders. Every 275 GTB is different and this one espcially in this color, it's just to die for! Thanks for sharing this with us👌
Thank you George
8:30 - killer at 12 o'clock! This is not a car, it's a stunning piece of art, moving slowly towards you. Just like a predator about to lunge on its prey. Ultimate elegance. And the best way to celebrate it - is to drive the hell out of it. Hats off to such car connoisseurs as George Bamford
Agreed 👏🏼 George is fab!! X
@@KiddinaSweetShop would you be so kind to clarify one nuance - why is this 275 GTB called "short-nose"? I have always thought that short-nosed versions have bigger gap between turning signals and chrome bumpers, along with a more wide-open grill. So, I am a bit puzzled :)
Keep em coming Jodie , this should be a tv show 🙏🏻
Why thank you Steve X
@@KiddinaSweetShop 🙏🏻
Thanks for the great content. I'm young but love classic cars and whilst I hope one day I will have my own, I can experience through these videos 👍
Thanks for watching!
Jodie, another great one. Can’t wait to see next.
Thank you! Got another great video coming soon!
I really admire the people who can afford these incredible cars and who drive them as they were intended regardless of the monetary value.
You will take the memories of driving these amazing cars with you when this life ends but the money will stay behind and become meaningless.
Thank you so much Jodie, I only recently discovered your channel and am so glad I did!
It reminds me of my childhood growing up in Devon and working on and going for drives in my late uncles wonderful collection of vintage Lagonda´s, Rolls Royces and assorted Saab Turbo´s all of which I learned to drive in.
Nothing better than a crash gearbox to teach you how to drive!
All the best from an Englishman living in Austria!
Oh and George´s watches are wonderful!
Very special! Thank you xx
Stunning, thanks.
Yeaah..Baby Yeah! 🇬🇧🫖🇬🇧 (My Favorite episode..) "Go On"..👍
I really love this channel I’m from the Philippines and I really like the interviews and the montage etc. it’s just special a very special channel.
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed!
That’s the sign of a true car enthusiast - keen to let another enthusiast drive their car. Awesome to share the experience.
Absolutely.
I enjoyed your ride response enthusiasm. You convey that better than many other Tubers in this genre. I love Doug DeMuro, but he doesn't have the historical context that say Jay Leno has and that is fine but I think your strength is the honest visceral response. To drive an Enzo/Pininfarina...that is a bucket list item.
I’m so glad I subscribed Jodie. Loving the channel.
Thank you 🙌
What a fantastic car and awesome owner! Always admire collectors that drive cars like this on the roads - respect. I often wonder what happened to our old red 275 GTB short nose that we had in the 80s. The 'parcel shelf' behind the seats had been converted to a seat so my sister and I could sit in the back.
Aah bet you miss that!
@@KiddinaSweetShop yes I miss that wonderful car so much. We were so lucky to have had one and I’ll always have fond memories. The 330 GT 2+2 and Maserati 3500 Sebrings that followed were not quite the same but at least there were actual seats for us kids 😄. Loving your channel BTW.
Great episode - impressive how George enjoys his cars as they were supposed to be enjoyed!
Epic guy! X
Great episode...Best one by far....
Thank you Andy :)
George is a Dude. He’s got tons of money but he has great enthusiasm and taste. No Show Pony. Love it !
Couldn't agree more!
Being able to afford car like that is one thing, being able to afford to drive it every day is another level! Great to learn about the owner a bit as well! Lovely video.
Owns a watch company, also the son of Lord Bamford owner of JCB.
awesome! i envy him. well done joddie and george ! listen to that thing!! love it. keep doing it joddie.
max
Bella. Keep up the good work Jodie
Thank you Andrew
What an utterly brilliant video in every way!
Thank you
My Dad Restored a 275 GTB4, it was a piece of magic. I recall him working on it right through our childhood. Great days
Epic
Fantastic review , love it 👍
Glad you enjoyed it :)
