That road is amazing even in an MX5. Can't imagine how magnificent it would be in a Singer! The side road to Machynlleth is pretty good as well.

Drove that road many times in a works van and can only imagine the fun he’s had in the singer 😂

That is a masterpiece. Small, light, naturally aspirated and obvious beautiful. What a car.

Jesus H Christ Mr Harris. This content blows my tiny mind. So so so pleased you are now doing this not racing an ice cream van to Blackpool towing a caravan as per Top Gear. Awesome car. Awesome revue. Awesomely different to 99 percent of car content on KZread. You and Harry are knocking it out of the park. Thank you. The death of the car magazine and normal cars and normal car culture is slightly offset by what you do. It's important to many people not least me.

This video brings back so much nostalgia for me! About 10 years ago my friend introduced me about this sick Porsche he saw at the auto show and i looked up on KZread and I fell in love with how beautifully reimagined this porsche is. I wanted to hear the engine roaring but there wasn't any yet on KZread. Couple months later, I finnally found a video of original Singer being driven on the road and it was you! Chris Harris driving the original singer on the California coast and i fell in love with it even more. 10 years later I'm still here on the other side of screen watching "porn" Chris Harris driving Singer with beautiful roar of engine. Thank you so much Chris.

By far this is the best collecting cars video with chris in it that I've watched so far, it's like he was narrating the birth of a newborn baby and his upbringing while being just geeky enough for the few nerds like us

If you want to encapsulate the essence of driving it is the "heel and toe" at 8.44-8.50. If you don't understand that then you are not a driver. Starting at 25 years old I drove Ferraris for 24 years and 264,000 glorious miles (trouble free miles too actually, drive them hard and they treat you right) but when they replaced that gorgeous open gate with a computer controlled flapper change designed to flatter people who do not need to have any skill at all, I walked away. Good on Singer and the team for providing what the rest of the automotive industry has turned its back on. Emotion.

A masterpiece of an old school design combined with modern engineering and style....outstanding.....utterly outstanding!

Pure joy, driven here with masterly control and a car produced by those who really know things! Fabulous, thanks Chris to you and your team! Beautifully filmed to by the way.

I’m going to watch this again and again. Absolute dream car driven by the man you want to see driving it

Just...wow!....another Mr Harris masterpiece...in more ways than one...never knew the connection until now, but everyone connected to the project should be massively proud...what a machine...always admired them from the beginning, but this is off the scale.

Every time I see a Singer, time stops and I find myself transfixed on the details. You can see the "everything is important" philosophy across every square inch of every car they produce. The whole team should be very proud of what they do.

Chris Harris' first Singer drive video is still one of my favourite videos of his. Then he did the big in-dpeth interview with Rob Dickinson, which is still really interesting. I didn't know Chris was involved with the development of this drop dead, top of the line, all out, give it everything Singer 911. But it really does make sense. Everything about this work of art is exquisite, but the idea of a functional, air cooled, 24 valve motor is very, very impressive. Fantastic work. Oh, and fook me. That sound.

One of the best content created in a while! It was a pure join to watch it from start to finish. Wish every creator has the capacity to create dope shit like that. Much love from Toronto.

This is one of the coolest cars on the planet

Everthing is Important... ...the fastodious atention to detail, the impecable craftsmanship, the ode to perfection, the emotional exuberance, the drama... As a piece of ART this car is Baroque on wheels. Velásquez would be proud !

This is what happens when technology and talent greatly combine with the ultimate ingredient, which is love. You can see how everyone involved loves this project. And since it came from the heart, all of it exudes something special. I have just finished the video and am still contentedly grinning. Well done, everybody. I really do wish I can at least see one live one day, let alone be in one!

The car is super amazing and exactly what I wanted after having four 80's Porsches in the 80's and 90's. The challenge is the price which in my opinion is astronomical. In the 80s and well into the 90s, you could buy nice Porsches for relatively little money. The 70s Porsches were cheap in the 80s and the 80s Porsches were cheap in the 90s. Today, all Porsches are expensive and many who would like to have such a car and have the knowledge cannot afford it. It's a pitty, but oh my, it's satisfying to see Chris Harris enjoying this amazingly beautiful air-cooled 911.

How good did that look on the slide on those corners, just an unbelievable beautiful machine.

Fantastic video! Chris Harris+Singer is automotive perfection. I love a car where every part is a jewel. I'll never be able to own one, but it's enough just knowing these cars exist.

A long time coming! Happy with the length of this film, we could use more like it from you and Neilo. What an absolute work of art this car is.

Having been out in the development car, it's unreal. The bark of the engine, the suppleness of the chassis.

Superb, Chris Harris. As always. You make me smile.

Can I just ignore the beauty of the car for a sec and say the photography in this video is absolutely stunning. The heel'n'toe shots. the interior/exterior slide shots, the drone shots everywhere but especially at the chicane on track where it seemingly just misses Chris tearing through. Throw in the sound of that engine and it's a feast for the senses. Oh and Chris is pretty cool too.

We've all been waiting for this. Well done gentlemen. I am sure when you got the trimming bill for your own green 911 homage you little imagined what has happened with the Singer DLS. What's most heartening Chris is you have retained the nose pressed to glass, magazine thumbing, tech obsessing enthusiasm for the driving machine. And whether it's this or the 205 Rallye, the 512M or the 2CV that enthusiast's excitement pours through these videos. Looking forward to the AX GT video.

I like and probably even _love_ quite a bunch of cars and dream about owning this and that (reality: I drive a '97 C280 Estate), but the Singer 911 is the only car on earth that I truly adore, especially as someone who is generally deeply touched by aesthetics and quality craftsmanship etc. Very much looking forward to the next 20 minutes. Edit: beautiful video, amazing car and so cool to see that it was shot where I've actually been myself some three weeks ago while on my little 5-week-roadtrip around the UK, coming from Germany.
