great video, great car. Bet the Panda had to work hard to get some of those 'on the move' video shots!

I love these videos, so much better than watching any Top Gear report. You have balls driving it like that Monkey, what was the excess on the insurance??!! Keep up the good work.

Another excellent video, but one thing that you failed to mention was the bk fan in the seat, what was that about?

Chris towards the end of the video it's clear you've been enjoying yourself; 'or is that a canoe in your pocket?'.................

Constructive criticism to editor and Chris. When you edit the video and add the voice over can you up the audio level to match that of the test drive as it always drop quite a bit lower and even on full volume it's quite difficult to hear, many thanks.

No problems here - and I'm half-deaf atm so I'd have noticed.

Are you using some sort of freakish surround system or something st like a 'mono' iPad? smile

As for the car, I have a love/hate thing with Zondas. I like how they look but I don't LOVE it - and I admire the level of care and uniqueness they put into the interiors BUT I also think they look like a footballer's bedroom cabinet/wes boudoir (tho that one is, at least, not as garish as most).

When you step back tho, it's really a toy for people with more money than they need and nothing else and so we can move along having had a smile and a laugh...

From 10:30 ish when Chris takes the ESC off and winds things up it really does start to sound like an asthmatic Darth Vader!

Tough day at the office. Great video and what a car.....not sure about the noise but hey I wouldn't kick it out of bed. The attentions to detail is staggering.

You do need to work on your production skills...maybe you could hold the camera at arms length as you walk round the car so we get a nice wobbly side on view of your head all the time and not the car ? wink

Awesome video Mr Harris.

IMO I still think its not as good looking as a Zonda, but maybe it will grow on me. Love the interior, think it looks amazing.

Big Damage! haha!

Excellent video yet again Chris! Had seen this car but never knew anything about it so nice to get to grips with it through your hands. Seems very nice although i cant help but think the exterior is a bit wrong somewhere. Cant quite pin point a precise part though.

Thats a great video - wasn't Monkey working hard when he turned the TC off? Fantastic to watch - i would love to see Harris taking that beast up the Stelvio with the TC switched off....

Not a looker like the Zonda but, as Harris says, what a car.

More like this please - both cars & videos!
