Yeah and even Clarkson, Hammond and May were more spontaneous and fun back in the early days... used to be more about cars as well. I honestly don't care too much about the 'special episodes' where they do ridiculous things with vehicles that aren't meant for that purpose... but, okay, that was their thing and a lot of people do love it. No need however for Top Gear to copy that and make boats out of tuk-tuks. Of course one could argue that formula was Top Gear's all along and not that of our 3 Musketeers, but it just feels so 'try hard' with Top Gear. Especially with that awful Matt LeBlanc and his fake scripted cringey delivery. Sabine I find quite annoying as well. She could be sisters with Heidi Klum, who's very cringe as well. I'm glad further along the season there will be no more Matt. Leave the reign to Harris and he'll deliver. One of my favourite car videos was that of Chris Harris on Cars, his own KZread channel at Portimao circuit, driving the holy trinity (P1, LaFerrari, 918 Spyder) along with Marino Franchitti and Tiff Needell. The way they interacted was just a couple of blokes with a passion for cars being genuinely enthusiastic. There was a general structure, but they were pretty much just chatting freely rather than reading offa a script. Just felt so right, the excitement was real. That is what car people (I wanted to say petrolheads, but these days -__-" , lol) can relate too, because that's exactly how they are amongst their buddies.

@@filipeferreirac You folks don't understand the real Top Gear, do you? It was never a car show. If you want a car show watch Fifth Gear, or that show where they restore cars. Top Gear was a comedy show that had cars as it's point of revolution. It was about 3 blokes that we're great friends and did stupid stuff. Nobody cared about the car section of it. The comedy, the simplicity, the utter stupidity, that was the main attraction point. The show itself was built around their personalities, molded by their complementing attributes. Nobody gave a crap's ass about the car subject itself. Of course they would test the cars, give it a lap run or whatever, but the basic substance, the fuel of the show, the thing that made you always watch it was their relationship. Their passion to make people laugh and act like toddlers with big toys. I'm pretty sure you can succeed in the same fashion in any field, as long as you are entertaining. As long as you keep people interested in what you're doing. Don't get me wrong, I feel the same way as Chris about the immense impact on history the cars in that garage had, but it's not the same. Put Clarkson Hammond and May in that garage and I guarantee you a banter for the ages. That's what people like, thats what people want. Disagreement. Because i don't care about ONE guy's opinion, I wanna see conflicting points of view in a fun setup. I couldn't care less that' he's excited about a pristine E30. I'm excited as well, but that doesn't make it watchable. It's about keeping the audience interested, and this is what they lack.

I think you’re right. They are totally usable and fast enough today, kinda safe and still loads of brand / character. Buy a new BMW today, one thing you won’t get is Bavarian character and taking a stand for good design. As they once did.

Depends on what brand of the 80s, as you can see in the video a lot of the 80s cars got way to advance electronics that never lasted. Id agree about the 90s though

Everything except American cars

*5:07** Albanian mafia feeling intensifies*

This is the greatest car collection, review and clip ever. Got to admire the enthusiasm of Chris and at the same time envy him for being so close to so many amazing classic cars that will truly forever remain GOATs. This needs its own show many of us young people want to discover forgotten classics and understand the evolution of cars before it all goes electric and Chris does it so well!

They would probably have better chemistry than the others.

Most people drive 12000 miles per car annually. This collection owner drives 12000 cars per mile annually.

but that car is amazing

I could sit and watch Chris Harris bubble over about cars probably all day :)

Nothing shows the passion and respect this man has for cars more than seeing him pull his sleeves down before touching the paintwork, an automotive gentleman! Someone give him his own show.

So it’s funny that Chris Harris is my favorite car journalist of all time and it really put a stamp on it when you pick that 750 V 12 Alpina BMW because back in the 90s that was my dream car over anything else at the time especially with a set of those 20 inch Alpina wheels. This video just made my day thank you Chris.

Chris may be my one of my favorite car personalities. He just shoots from the hip and it comes out Right every time. Even when it is not right.... it is.

2:26 when Chris is having his 'man moment' notice he has his sleeves up in order to not dirty the cars with his hands (natural oils, sweat etc.). Such a genuine consideration for these awesome mint cars.

Even after 5 years, Chris is still on point with these cars.. I think he shares my view point perfectly. And I don’t think I’m the only one.

Something about "older" car design is SO much better than modern stuff. It's like how Blade Runner is still more stylish than most movies made nowadays.

Just so pleasing watching Chris genuinely enthused by these awesome cars. My era of joy too.

Hands up people who appreciate Chris Harris 🙌

The E38 is without doubt one of the most beautiful BMWs, and definitely the most beautiful 7-series.

That was the most escapism I have had from a video in years.

As a 50th Anniversary owner, I'm really happy to see his enthusiasm for the Z. That's the first time one has ever been shown on video by an automotive publication. One of the most underrated cars of the 80's in my (most certainly biased) opinion. I hope Chris gets the chance to experience one in the future, and thanks for making my day!

I'm going to watch this again, immediately. Work can 'do one' and it's only 4am. Harris, you've made an absolute cracking video here. I lived in Germany from 89 - 96 and remember a lot of these amazing things. Many still make me tingle today.

1:50 “There are 3. 3! 3!!! E38 BMW’s 😁😁😁😁😁 his extatic joy is just so communicable!
