Harry's Garage: Driving a '69 Rolls Royce to the Arctic in winter

Fretwired

Two videos that if you're a certain age and bent hook you in - a middle-class Top Gear jaunt. Harry of Harry's garage (loads of videos on classic cars worth checking out) buys a 48 year old Rolls Royce on eBay and drives it to the Arctic Circle. Typical bonkers Brit - Harry's a genteel James May.

Part one to Hell in Norway

Part two - Northern Lights

Cheers, I shall watch that later. I always fancied buying an old Roller, if I ever had the space to keep it and fettle it. They’re silly cheap (and yes, I do know why )

What a really tired, silly, overdone concept.

What a bloody brilliant watch though. Excellent stuff.

Thanks for the link. Really enjoyed that.

Harry is great imo. Really geeks out on cars but doesn't lord it up. He still loves a Euro jaunt in his Countach which is fine by me.

From what I remember, vague steering with lots of play, stupidly big and thin steering wheel, more windnoise at speed than I expected. Bought a 500SEL instead.
