We are lucky, we can watch a review the length of an episode of TG 20yrs ago, which would give you a 8min review tops on any single car, and that was about the extent of your choice. And we can watch more reviews of the cars we like, from people with vary degrees of talent and knowledge. Harry is the best for in depth and quality, I do like Doug for entertainment and is doing an interesting variety lately. Best thing about Harry though is he does older supercars too! Not just the lastest tech laden superfast cars which most of the 'star youtubers' tend to chase.

+CJ DASHCAM Doug is more of an entertainer, this is a proper review, professionally done with a real world perspective. What i like is that Harry is both part of the industry (works at SVO), journalism (used to own EVO Magazine), and an owner (by that i mean he is the target audience of most cars he reviews). That's what makes this review so complete.

@Mark-tg9by

+Kaisuke971 There's is simply a difference when a grown man with more than a century of experience in the industry or a yuppie explains a car.

Hmmm. Who'd have thought that a test of a car on the road, rather than driving around an airfield, would make for a better test....? Quality review.

Best review of the DB11 by far. Always love hearing Harry's take. Lots of great additional insight that others never provide.

Every bloody time Aston Martin amaze me with the stunning beauty of their cars? No other manufacturer can come anywhere near them for looks and elegance in my opinion😳

That HAS to be, surely, the best looking car on sale today. Perfection.

It's so refreshing to hear an honest car review, so many reviews these days (even EVO magazine is occasionally guilty of it) are all rosy and have a fake whiff about them, I totally understand why because they don't want to upset the manufacturers but this review seems more 'real'. Maybe it's because Harry is one of the most experienced in the business.

The best DB11 review I've seen so far. Harry really gives a comprehensive view of what it would be like to live with the car day to day. Great job - thanks

always a good day when we get a vid from Harry's

Thanks Harry for the real world insight into the DB11. That V12 noise is delicious, and I totally agree that the exterior design is gorgeous.

Just came back to this video from a long time, and I have to say this is still my favorite car review video of all time. This video is what made me subscribe to this channel and watch it to this day, and the start of my love towards that ‘British feeling’ of driving an Aston from the country side to London. Thank you Mr. Metcalfe for all the good cars & trip videos!

Another brilliant review Harry. Nobody else offers the information you do and in such a relaxed and easy to watch manner. You highlight the small details that others often ignore, tending only to focus on speed and handling. You can tell you've owned cars like this yourself as you point out the details that make living with them great or annoying. Harry's Garage goes from strength to strength. Well done!

Harry, your integrity alone makes your videos so much more worth watching than the rest. I'm not even an Aston man but this video was hilarious at times

This really is a proper review, he takes his time to show every detail, great job!

Love how long and in-depth this video was. Harry is the OG car guy and hearing all of his thoughts is so interesting.

Thank Harry, really enjoyed that video. Saw the DB11 in the flesh yesterday at Goodwood. I have to say it looked fabulous from every angle.

I love your enthusiasm, Harry. I've always loved the Aston Martins. It doesn't matter the year or model. Best sound from the V12 and a true GT car. Your approach to the ownership of these cars is to use them, and put them through the paces, in the environment as they were engineered for. Great review.

Oh boy, this car is a true beauty. Love the external looks and the styling. Fan-tas-tic. Love the videos you make Harry!

Thanks for taking the time to do your video's Harry. I really enjoy them as they are very informative. Keep them coming. Best wishes from Andy in Nottinghamshire.

Can`t wait to watch this tonight. Really enjoying your videos Harry and your real world approach! Keep them coming

Great review, Harry, once more ! Thank you very much for this moment. 👍😀

Love the fact Harry isn’t afraid to point out the flaws, and cover every real world aspect of the car and not just the techie and track performance stuff 🍻

The best car review programme available. The enthusiasm & passion for cars is like his panel tester, magnetic

I can't get enough of this channel at the moment. Great show.

Really great review, Harry! I especially enjoy how you're being fair with the car and Aston. Yes it's beautiful, but it still isn't perfect, and you're not afraid to tell us that. Thanks.

I spent the entire video checking my phone, just to discover that the noive is from the video itself! hahaha Best review i've seen on the new DB11, as usual on Harry's garage!

4 years later and I’ve just seen my first DB 11 parked round the corner from me in Eton. OMG - if you haven’t seen it in the flesh you’re in for a shock. It’s massive - but stunningly beautiful. I couldn’t stop staring at it. Xxx

Love your reviews, Harry. No bravado, no hyperbole - perfect.

Great review, as always. I love the DB11, it is a great starting point for all future Aston Martin's. But the DB9 still looks better I think. Timeless beauty.

My problem is the interior. In my opinion you really should not _see_ any technology in Aston. All visible elements should be natural and mechanical. Especially those instrument clusters. It kinda looks cheap. Problem with gadgets is that they age so fast. And I like to think Astons as ageless pieces of art. What I would like to see is more like modern take on '20s and '30s speedboat-for-the-road. On practical note it was -26,5C last morning and winter is just starting. LCD:s do not really work when temps are below -10C. It's not really convenient to have speedo that cannot show the speed. I've experienced this in quite many modern cars lately.

Always look forward to your reviews Harry, brilliant as always.

Great review. Informative, interesting. Enjoyable for (voyeurs) viewers who quite simply enjoy looking at, and hearing about cars of all types and nature, and being done so by a no nonsense, cordial, and likeable character who has a rare ability to remain genuinely humble and none patronising to his audience, and his key focus remains on the subject matter and not directed towards himself. Some achievement, considering how the review still manages to hold the attention of the more technical minded. Well done, sir. I certainly didn’t miss the overhead helicopter, skateboarders, and soldiers firing from derelict buildings.

Great review! I trust you Harry, because you have great taste and knowledge of classic cars. You know your stuff.

DB9 is so fucking sexy i cant get over it, too bad they stopped the production of that NA V12. Its sad DB11 its nowhere near as sexy as its predecessor

This design is really starting to grow on me. I'd feared astons were forever becoming edgy/modern/angular. This one has a measure of elegance to it, from the swoop of the hip line, to the almost playful air vent detailing.
