RE: Chris Harris video: the Singer 911
Discussion
What a great video - Harris has mastered the art of talking slowly and clearly enough. And Kudos for just letting the obsessives talk obsessively. Brilliant.
I can't quite get my head round the car though. It's like a really high end, new old stock custom shop guitar. Incredibly lovely to behold. Sounds great. I totally want one - but never played the one I had. I sold it. I have an old strat though, with no mods, always get's used.

Filling the void that other car programs have left, a proper car piece by Chris with a proper car.
An eye watering price but then you get the complete package and for the money an Italian super car or a bespoke Singer, should my pockets ever get that deep, I know which I would plump for, the video sold it for me.
Can Chris do the Paul Stephens equivalent? would make for an interesting comparison if only because I see a few, as they are based up the road for me.

I have never been a fan of the 911, and have a general poke at my brother who is currently restoring a 964. But the Singer is something completely different, for some reason it completely transcends my dislike of 911's and I would desperately love to own one. I think what is comes down is that California hotrodder mentality that permeates the guys at Singer, and the fact that the head boy is a Brit makes things even better.
I have read many interviews with him and found his mindset very much mirrors mine, i.e. take a basic package and refine it to where is becomes the best it can be.
To those moaning about the cost, if you have ever spent any time in a high end hotrod shop or a company like Singer you will realise where the money goes. These guys will never become rich from selling these things, by their own admission they cannot afford the cars themselves. You have to look beyond the base numbers.
Is it worth the money? Absolutely if you can afford one. It’s unlikely to be the fastest car in your collection but I suspect it will be most fun and likely to have the highest mileage

I really love those, a very nice package...very lovely to look at all details etc, much want.
but...350K or even 500K is silly money, its worth problably max 150K me thinks.
that said, when your a rich oil-sheik or something like that, then 500K could be just pocket money, and its just a car you want, the price on it, could be just a number.
lovely car.
