“The other thing that gave me a woody when I came in” Lovely bit of business.

Richard's barely concealed smirk as Jonny expressed his liking of a woody was also excellent
Smith and Sniff Guides are always a highlight of FOS
You know Goodwood Festival of Speed is the goat because they ask Smith & Sniff to do the presenting. Please, keep this collaboration going.

The Ant and Dec of the car world. Not sure who’s who mind.
Nice one gents, your podcast is great too on that side of things.
That felt surprisingly short, I wouldn't mind more of these.
'Ponies on the Vinyl' the new album from Sexy Baloon of a Tyre.
Love how Richard couldn't resist the Quentin impression 🤣
Smith and Sniff are a fantastic duo for this event. Bravo, Goodwood! 👏🏼
"You mean it smells like glue?" - genuine laugh out loud here (after spitting my mouthful of beer out) when I saw your expressions :-D
Is there a part 2? That felt a bit cut off, and I'd love to hear more of what they've got to say, factoids about the cars and looking at the unusual stuff!

I'd say they were asked to produce a certain length video so had to wrap it up. Plus the place was filling up so they couldn't have gone for much longer anyway.

At least one of Maximillion Cooper’s XJ220’s is for sale.
That AC428 is just gorgeous
The roofline on that Facel Vega is absolutely bloody glorious.

Eh?! It's hideous! One of the worst features of a catastrophically ugly car...
Brilliant work guys. What a fun place to wander around with car geeks.
I never knew the AC 428 existed. Beautiful car! Europe had so many more interesting cars than we had in the states in the early seventies.
No Matra-Simca Rancho?? 🤣👍
I don't usually go in for these walk through video thingys but this was very entertaining. Were there two cameras? You seemed to be looking somewhere else quite a bit.
Delightful details, thanks boys. I’m torn between the ISO Rivolta and the Facel Vega.
great work! very entertaining...i've always admired the facel vega and the 350/400gt lambo, but my new fave is the ac....thanks, and looking forward to this week's podcast...
We really need more auction walkabouts with you two!
Give these guys a regular gig hosting Goodwood events. Walking though the suction with them was like a gameshow- "Quick, Name That Classic". I know my cars, but I could barely keep up with them.
*The Pathfinder pedal racing car (background) in the back of the Humber would be my ideal combination I think*
I was introduced to several cars I've never heard of with this video. Well done, not very often to see something completely new that's also beautiful and exciting.
Great selection of cars in this auction. Well presented. 👍
Those cars are pretty nice on that side of things 😏
Love Smith + Sniff, please keep their content coming 👏
Great presentation. OTSOT 60’s GT edition: when I was a boy I spent quite a lot of time one summer with my grandfather looking for an interesting project car. This was in the mountains of western North Carolina around 1984. The 2 cars I remember coming across were a complete Fiat 850 convertible at a junk yard and a rough but complete Maserati 3000 GT sitting at a local body shop. I may be totally off but I think the price for it was about $5000-6000? The project car idea never came to fruition but the brief hunt was a lot of fun.
"What would you use it for?" "Touring!" - Johnny and Sniff need their own show on the regular!
Top work guys, this could be an hour long....on that side of things. 🤘
Like you both, the only car that took my money was the amasing Porsche 356 S a true jam among all others. Thank you Goodwood Road & Racing and Mr Porter and Mr Smith.
I had a mate who in his 20s used to daily a 1949 Mk II Humber Pullman Limo; we got stranded on Bodmin Moor in it overnight when we collected it...
Sweet. That ”Hoffmeister kink” of the Iso was on many cars in the 60’s, Fiats etc. Its just the Bmw stuck with it and sort of claimed it…
They still let you in then…
Interesting guide to the "ornaments". Anorak observation concerning the AC 428 designed by Pietro Frua: this car is clearly derived from the (one-off for Colin Chapman) 1964 Frua Lotus Elan (scaled up). Personally of all the cars shown, I would opt for the Lamborghini 400GT.
3 out of 5 stars. needs more Marrillion content.
Another great filming - for interest we have travelled from Switzerland to France a few days ago, half way around the Susten pass we had a green Z1 behind us for over 10 miles ( British Racng Green)
Saw Johnny had to watch. And sub
Great review, has Jonny got amazing hearing as all the videos on his channel and this are so bloody quiet!
Aw! You left us hanging on Schumi's F1 car story?! I'm waving my tiny little YT-comment fist at you Sir!
So many S&S inside jokes here.
Nice guys I really enjoyed watching you guys talk cars 🤙🏻🇬🇧
Another excellent video from Smith and Sniff ..... however I can't stop hearing "Wyld Stallyns!!" after your intro.
PLEASE PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE GUYS!!
I love these two. Someone needs to give them a TV show.

They’re on KZread and they have a podcast. Why do they need a show on a dying format with producers etc meddling in the content and telling them what “the viewer wants”.
Needs more Sade!
Smith N Sniff are THEE car guys of Planet earth!
“sort of like a panda being born into captivity” bro hahaha
These guys are great.
Love Smith and Sniff.
That Alfa....seriously. Of all those fabulous cars....the Montreal!
I had the same size tires on my 1969 buick LeSabre lol
How much was the facel vega and alpina?
Those two are my highlight
Loved the Integrale and the 428. Oh well can only dream .
Side note: Richard Porter wrote the 3 Medium Sized Books of Boring Car Trivia and they're all fascinating reads. I'm sure they're terribly tedious and boring if you're not into automotive history, but I think he knocked it out of the parks with those books!
I love the Facel. Gorgeous
Love the story of the F1 Jordan. 👍🏻😀
No comments on the second pair of giallo Integrale and silver 356 behind the Lamborghini 400 GT? Just a glance @20:55 . I could have watched another hour of Smith and Sniff.
14:05 lmao, a little bit of Alan Cantara :) wasnt he a centre forward for real madrid ? :D :D
what was that tiny car in the bottom right corner at 2:03?

In session tonight: Ponies on the vinyl.
Ponies on the vinyl? That’s a John Peel Session surely!
Imagine - the Lamborghini 400GT and the Facel Vega sat next to each other in the garage. Name a more suave two-car collection... other than the Montreal and that early Aston DBS...
I had a Jag with those lattice wheels on the old Aston Martin. I've also had the misfortune to ride a motorbike behind one briefly. The overpowering smell of unburnt fuel is eye watering. BMW can keep their Z1 and send me a Z8 please
say it again! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 FYI the word "giallo" sounds like "jello" but with the A like in jab
Think your editor needs to put LUTs on the clips!!
And....OTSOT....
Lancia every day of the week would give my spare kidney for one
Smith & Sniff + Chris Harris would be a Top Gear lineup to rival Clarkson, Hammond and May.
Id buy that defender and send sniffpetrol weekly pics of the mileage going up.....
I love how Richard fails to look at the correct camera at any time, even by accident
Was there ever a more elegant car than the Facel Vega?
Alan Cantara, nice fella
Massive belch at 26:08?!
There was a racing series in the US using XK 220s driven by veteran racing drivers. Totally insane.

Jonny, my mate Dave has a 356 and also a Type 3 that was best in show at Volksworld. Ping for contact details.
Why not just say Harry Metcalfe’s name - why just allude to him regarding the spectre landrover ??
Which camera are you looking into 😀😀😀
Must have been a russian oligark that has the racecar mountet in the ceiling
Sphincter Land Rover lol
I cannot wait to watch Jonny's video on the F1 car being removed from the millionaire's living room via an elaborate winch system and a Mercedes Sprinter ;-)
Do I spot a Montreal in background
The one car I care is this Lancia ..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
THAT STANG IS JUST DISCUSTING BRO 😎😎💪💪,🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Annnnnd they cut it just when it gets really interesting.
no marillion looks to camera here
Loved these videos, but let Jonny speak…. 🤪
Classic BMW converted EV. Utter treachery.
Iso is pronounced Eso.It's Italian.
Whoever converted that BMW to electric should be jailed
Johnny 'has a real thing' for every single car he recognizes. (Sounds like he only learned about each one even existing at the last show/auction he went to...and now he's an 'expert') Every single stereotypical classic is on the top of his list. I would've thought Goodwood would hire people who dress a bit more respectfully too.
So much worse than Harry Metcalfe’s auction previews.
