Such a humble soul with pur passion for Porsches. Your a good man Magnus hats off to you my friend.

British Racing Green actually derives from a motor race in Ireland in 1902. The British cars were painted green out of respect to the Irish for holding the race. After that race the British continued to use similar greens on their cars.

check out his videos driving between traffic and crashing at car shows

That was a beautiful piece of footage. One goal in life is to meet this man. This guy is a sensation, not because of his love for old porsches, but because of his charisma and passion. Thank you XCAR for yet another gr8 video. This video should be on Petrolhead channel lol.

One of my favorite youtube videos ever. Magnus seems like a genuine and good guy.

I feel the same way about these cars. Saw a red 1988 cab as a kid and was in love. just love the simplicity of the the design. the shape is iconic and timeless.

Love the exhaust sound. Great job capturing that accurately.

Great car and a genius designer. Long live Porsche classics

Beautiful video.....I love how you guys manage to mixed a car review and a documentary and make it came out really well.

Beautiful car. Unmistakable sound from the exhaust.

I do believe Mr Walker has found his heaven on earth while driving his early Porsches. Good for him. 😊

1:49 Ummmm, your hair is caught in the door :D

lots of "Words of Wisdom" . Magnus is ALL RIGHT. love his Passion for what he does. KUDOS. and Thank you for the video.

Seems like one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. If only more of us had his outlook on life. The world would be a richer place.

Beautiful car, admirable philosophy. Always thought British Racing Green, if this is meant to be the same color, was much darker. Nevertheless, I love green Porsches and you don't see too many of them. Hoping to buy a Rainforest Green Boxster soon..

I used to have a 67 912 when I was delivering pizzas at 19 years old. Not fast, but damn it was the most rewarding car to drive. I have a 99 Carrera and I love it - had it for 10 years now, but not the same as an early 911 in terms of road feel. My dream is an early 911S. Don't care what the 0-60 time is - I just want to run through the gears.

Inspirational and a true purest of heart and soul.

This is a perfect story of passion, love, and feel for a car. Very nice story about a very nice car.

every day i had driven any of my Porsches i feel the way he described incredible how car brand can bring so many people together and also feel

+Aaron Bilodeau Hear hear!... I was 6 when I saw one an I've waited 29 long years to buy mine. I own my 911/993 today, bought it 7 years ago and whenever I drive it I feel exactly the same things he's describing: pure joy and freedom. Can't get enough of it. Amazing machines

wow such passion for his car, really shows the bond between man and machine. A real car enthusiast.

I feel it man ... thanks for sharing!

***** Favourite model of Porsche? ... early 911 indeed! I've never forgotten the feel of driving my first, near new '71 911T that I got the opportunity to "wring out" for a few minutes. The engine was pure music and the precision of all operational aspects left a lifelong impression on my belief that 911's stand alone in the world of sport cars!

Magnus gets it. The nuances and enjoyment from each Porsche.

Man, i love this green color. Past week, i saw a 60's VW Beetle painted with a green that resembles that same color, absolutely beautiful.

you lucky man Magnus, that's a dream, great video thanks. I love Porsche, have been a jag-man for decades.

This car is the reason why the 1,000,000th 911 looks like it does.

Much respect for this guy and what he does. There's a lesson that can be learned here.

This is honestly one of the best car channels on KZread. Certainly the most under hyped. Keep making videos @XCARFilms !

Magnus such a great perspective!!

Wonderful wonderful video, absolutely loved it! I recently purchased a 2000 911 Carrera in Encinitas and drove it, with my wife, to our home on the East coast. Magnus hits the nail on the head, great commentary Thanks.

I appreciate that he focuses on the journey in all endeavors and not the destination.

thank you for the amazing story!

I totally relate to his statement about driving and how it allows you to disconnect from the rest of life and really unwind. I have a few routes that I take regularly to go and unwind, ranging from about 15 miles to 150+ miles, mostly on back roads through the middle of nowhere. Since I live in NH, about 3/4 of a mile from the ocean, I can either blast up the coast in the early morning or late afternoon when there is little traffic, or go inland and/or up to the north and into the mountains. Either way, I get to enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape and nature. I'm not so lucky as to have a plethora of Porsche 911's in my garage to choose from, I do have (what I consider to be) some rather nice vehicles that are a ton of fun on the winding roads here in NH. The first, and my favorite, a supercharged 1990 convertible Mustang LX (306ci with 515hp/460tq at the wheels) , which is rather lightweight at a touch under 2800lbs, and handles quite well with upgraded suspension and sticky Yokohama tires. I love getting up into the mountains, opening the exhaust cutouts and hearing the roar of the exhaust while I carve through the winding roads of the mountains and valleys. The second is a 1989 Chevy S10 with custom chassis and Jag 5.3liter V12, which probably makes 375hp or so at the flywheel. Its a completely different experience from the mustang, but still wonderful. The V12 just loves to rev, and that unique V12 sound is like music. It lacks the brute force torque that the Mustang has, but it still pulls pretty good. You just need to keep the rpms up and let that V12 HP pull you out of the corners. And I can't say enough about the way it sounds, as its amazing. It runs custom headers into dual 2.25" exhaust with a X-pipe and Magnaflow Bullet race mufflers, exiting just ahead of the rear tires. Its very raspy and somewhat high-pitched. You would think it was a European sports car, until you see this little truck coming down the road. It gets a lot of attention, especially when I tell people it has a V12 in it. A little about the Jag V12. They are relatively easy to find and can be had for very little (I got the complete car for a few hundred dollars. It was a rust bucket, but had low miles and a solid engine). As long as it doesn't need a bunch of work, they are great engines, just expensive when they break. But if you want a low-cost V12, the 70's and 80's Jags are a bargain. And there is nothing like the sound of a V12!

I forgot how beautiful that era of Porsche is. That curve from front headlight to rear taillight is simply elegant. Truly exquisite.

Magnus This is not British Racing Green, which is considerably darker than "Irish Green". Beautiful car!

Beautiful, beautiful car. Luv that Magnus is his own purist and he left this car original right down to the original owners stickers. What a humble guy. You da man, Magnus👍

I have an early SWB 911 and a '66 912, (and the '71 914 in my avatar pic). All are in various stages of lengthy restoration or refurbishment. We spoke several years ago, but I still haven't had a chance to come see your shop. Hope to do so in the near future ... Keep up the great work ... really enjoy your videos. They keep the spark alive.

Magnus is a great dude! His Porsches are awesome!!!

The best video and totally hitting the nail on the head. Amazing

the way this guy talks about Porsches makes mesmile

I love Magnus Walker! He is such an inspiration!

Awesome Video starting with cars, images and also musics. I'm watching from Sao Paulo. Congratulations on collection.

Magnus you are a legend! You understand Porsche like few people does. Congrats on the beautiful timepiece too ;)

I like how Magnus can describe the feeling driving such a car. I think only somebody can really understand who draw a car from that area. I was blessed to have a Beetle from 57 so he makes me remember that car. Thank you for the excellent video.

This gave me chills

Magnus , prob the best video you have done! And a fantastic car

What makes Magnus Walker so appealing is the fact that he is so genuine, unique, humble, and is an amazing storyteller. I could listen to this guy tell stories about his cars all day. “Modern cars may do things better, but the reward is no the same.” - Magnus Walker.

Spot on Magnus, I have a 77 Targa and it is definitely a great driving experience. I never turn on the radio because it is such a recharging of my mental state. Better then laying on the couch paying someone $ 200 an hour, telling them your issues. Keep spreading the Porsche passion

That's a beautiful car and it sounds awesome. I've had my eye on a 993tt but this thing looks amazing

I owned an '88 911 Targa Carrera, purchased some 10 years ago. This was the Commemorative Edition in Diamond blue metallic paint, short throw shifter and stitching in the headrests. I absolutely loved that car. It was a car that forced you to drive it and pay attention. The clutch was super stiff, the steering precise with no power assist, the brakes could bring you to a dead stop from 100 mph almost immediately. The fun part was 2nd to 3rd gear. Well one of the fun parts. I had to sell it for various reasons, but you can definitely have an emotional attachment to a car.

What a superb motor

I have a lot in common with him, he said everything!

What a beautiful car

Never heard of this channel until this video. Subscribed. Very good work.

my 2nd doc on this guy and he is what we need

I had 65 solex carb'd 911(901) with the lead blocked front bumper to try to keep the wheels on the ground, they didn't :) Had that car since about 1970. Sold it recently to a good guy that had admired and wanted it for a long time. That green reminded me of my first MG at 15 years old & the car reminds me so much of the Porsche I now miss.

Right there is my dream car in my favourite colour. Breathtaking.

My all time fav car shape ...

Perfect car in the perfect color. 💚

Still one of your best

This is really on point!

Probably one of the nicest colours ever. This and British Racing Green are pretty amazing.

It's my dream to own one of these cars...what an awesome dude.

What a beautiful car, just perfect 👌

That is such a beautiful 911. I typically don't like green except for British Racing Green on a proper E-type, or any British sports car. But man, you've got the classy looking early 911 in that color and it's just gorgeous.

I don't know if ill ever the the pleasure of owning one of these cars but I hope so. I have the same passion for all cars but the 911 has been my lust/love since I rode in my uncles 72 model back in 1977

The color is a killer!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the video.

Superb video. Many Thanx x

thanks Magnus !!!

Congratulations: great film and beautiful images, esp. the very original tunnel/out at 13:35.

Speaks so candidly on his cars and Porsche as a whole and doesn't sound like a fanboy at all.

great episode~~!

What a great guy...

Amazing video!!!

Looking for info motor light comes indenifies as fault 41. More info some say cam sensor. Also need parts right side window washer sprayer. Also need plugs that cover openings to cover when temp top removed. Suggestion on these items?

You inspire me. Years ago I saw this porsche in a garage in Brooklyn , this weekend I going to look for it. I think nirvana a 73.

love this video!!!

wow, amazing!

wonderful

Love your work brother! I love early porsche myself....lets just say I live for Porsche and one day soon I will own one, I going to be an outlaw!😁👍🤘

Legend!

this man represents everything I want to do... Just beautiful

I love driving my 911 Magnus drove it home with this video . Happy thoughts.

Love that you respect the provenance of the car...makes the car feel alive, like it has earned all its badges of wear, and is unique, special and appreciated for its journey-

Wonderful car. The owner must be very proud of it!

Awesome video ? Question is what’s the background music love it

thats a beautiful part of automotive history

I would really love to see his entire collection, and I would like to know how these cars feel on the road.

that tail caught in the door at 1:49.....

While sadly I havn't been able to own a Porsche yet, as the owner all my adult life of classic Fiats and Alfas I totally understand where Magnus is coming from. It is the difference from owning boring, dull modern cars. and yes I have one of those too but at least it is an Alfa. One day though I will have a classic Porsche

Decompression time, so true. I don't own a 911 but I get to drive clients frequently and I have a great test drive route, and I experience exactly that.

Man... Xcar is awesome!

i always wondered if he would get one of those long as dreads stuck in the door and and 1:48 my question was answered haha. such and cool and inspirational dude!

Great video, guys. Great channel as well. Subscribed.

I subscribed before I watched the first video.

A good friend of mine owned one way back in the '90s. VERY nice car indeed, he sold it & bought a Porsche 911 (996 Series) GT3.

i like your stlye

God, why somebody didn't liked it? Truly a great, inspiring video. Great job XCAR.
