- The Porsche 930 makes for a great GT and I took my special turbo S version on a road trip to Spain to find some of the best and quietest roads in Europe. Here's my guide to where to find the best roads and where to stay. This video was created with the support of:

You know it's going to be good when Harry starts a video holding a paper map.
Hell yes! With notes and highlighted routes!
Indeed. And even better, when you have to use your kids geography book :)
Super comment ! 🔝👍😀
That will have confused the Millennials.....
Always is fantastic
Thank you Mrs M for standing on the roadside and watching your husband drive into and out of shot. 👍
And I hope in the fullness of time your great,great grandchildren can watch all the videos and see just how obsessed with cars/ motorbike and travel great,great grandfather Harry was 🇬🇧😀
Yes special shout out for Mrs M for the time to do this on her breaks
My thoughts exactly. Thanks Mrs M.
Harry IS..not was.
@@Tracertme "Great Great grand children" I really Hope Harry will live long but I seriously doubt about sooo long that his Great Great grand child Can see him still living. 😉
We all know that Harry does this kind of content exceptionally well, but let’s just take a moment to mention Mrs M’s camera work and the editing, both take this to the next level.
Want to go to Spain now, right now. #BloodyHellHarry
I have an evil plan to have a sex change, usurp Mrs M, lock her in that tower and then go on honeymoon with Harry in Benidorm.
Or perhaps not, he says he likes to spread his oats on his other channel.
Excellent work from both as always, so very enjoyable.
No doubt, she is the constant companion for the presenter. Great work!
Well said!
What a beautiful car. There is nothing like a Porsche.
The zoom on that camera was pretty impressive!
Hats off to Mrs. M for being an accommodating travel partner, an MVP of the channel for those of us that particularly enjoy the road trip videos.
Harry, please say a massive thank you to Mrs M for her patience and understanding in giving us the shots of the car, which must be time consuming to get, but contribute so much to our enjoyment.
Dear Harry, I'm glad to see that you finally decided to take the ferry and come to Spain. I appreciate did you have a fantastic trip and stayed in the right hotels. I praise your good judgement. Regarding the absolute lack of sports cars on the road enjoying our mega-roads, there is a triple explanation: 1) In Spain both sports cars and speed have been demonized. The stantard driver drags along, painfully, with an ugly SUV. 2) During this vacation, everyone has gone to the coast to enjoy the beach, so the interior regions have been empty for a week. 3) One of the regions where you were, the Upper Tagus, is one of the emptiest regions in Europe, with a population density lower than that found in Lapland. I love your channel, please keep making great videos and brightening up our Sunday afternoon. Greetings from Madrid.
Why the demonization of sports cars?
@@WeJustDrive The "Green" zealots.
@@WeJustDrive for years the national traffic department's only policy to improve road safety has been to convince the population that speed kills people, that everyone speeding is a serial killer and that every car that allows speeding is basically a gun. To the point that now, in Spain when they try to demonize a rich person in the news, instead of talking about their tax fraud or their accounts in tax paradises, they simply show their car collection with a description of 0-100 figures, horsepower etc. It is extremely sad to be honest
@@WeJustDrive Because of this guy: es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pere_Navarro_Olivella
and the commies, the are like watermelons, green on the outside and red on the inside
Damn I miss Madrid, I miss Spain...
Harry is showing us how to live life in the best way
Weak brakes, low mpg, and a Macgyver funnel - H.M. likes to live dangerously!! 😆😁
This is Harry's best vintage car road trip that I've watched! Loved it. Thanks!! 👍👍👍👍
Using a coke bottle as a funnel is an old trick.
This is everything I love wrapped up into one video: Porsche, Road Trips, Travel, Paper Maps, Hotels/Castles, History, Getting Lost, and pure adventure! Harry, you deserve a knighthood! 🇬🇧 👑
Harry deserves an Earldom and to be made a Hereditary Peer of the Realm. In these dark days Harrys videos are brilliant bright spots.
I live in Extremadura in Spain. One of the least populated, most beautiful parts. Open roads, stunningly beautiful scenery and the best roads I've driven on. Nowhere else like it anywhere in Europe. And the nicest, friendliest people I've ever met. A driver's paradise.
Northern Cáceres province is particularly beautiful.
@@joxepojoxepin2752 North, South, East or West. Just driven 140km trip from Portugal, past Albuquerque, on to Badajoz today. Driven that road a hundred times and a hundred times it's taken my breath away. But yes, the road to Cáceres, past Valencia De Alcantara, Cáceres, to Guadalupe, all around the Parque Monfrague. Stunning beyond words. So many amazing roads, views and endless skies. Personally, if I had to choose, I prefer the South of Extremadura, but only for the heat shimmer on an open, empty road.
I'm from Extremadura too and is so encouraging to hear someone talk this way about this land, now i live in the north os spain but every time i come back is such a joy. My favourite roads there are Villuercas, Jerte and Hurdes region but there are so mucho more, is almost infinite.
@@TheShick95 Keep the secrets, Angel! Let the world think that Extremadura is a dry, barren desert!
@@ianworley8169 Guadalupe is such a beautiful town. Tons of natural spaces and "rally" trails 😂
Harry I want to sincerely thank you, I’m actually stuck in my bed for weeks because health recovering, and being with you on your trip experience is an IMMENSE pleasure for me………. Watching beautiful landscapes, listening your voice and lovely accent, falling in love with your car… This is such a definition of pure and only positive moment…
You cannot imagine how I appreciate that…
Thank you so much Harry and also the person (or team) helping to make this possible.
Big sincere salut from France 🇫🇷
Vincent.
One of my favourite Harry's video's so far. I adore the way he puts his arm around your shoulders and says "come with me" on wonderful journeys, a light touch on architecture, landscapes, history and more, adorned with true heart, passion and knowledge for driving pleasure and cars. A true joy to watch... Thank you Harry.
I love these long distance road trips that Harry does at times. These are my favorite videos from Harry.
I can only echo this viewers comments. I love road trip films, especially foreign adventures.
Can you do one with the new Yaris GR as that would also like 34km of gravel roads.
When foreigners drive through sunny Spain in flip flops and shorts they tend to forget that it is the second European country with the highest average altitude after Switzerland, which means once you drive 50 miles inland from the coast you are at least at 2500 ft and can get pretty cold, particularly at night. Even in the south snow can be seen from october to may up in the mountains.
Isn't Madrid the highest European capital city too?
@@borjastick not by a long way. Andorra's capital is number one, but larger sized capitals are Sarajevo and Sophia.
I didn't know that!
Austria, Liechtenstein, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia anand Albania have a higher average altitude than Spain ;-)
@@mczeljk I'm not talking about average altitude I am talking about the elevation of the capital city. Madrid is one of them I think.
You know what this channel is like, and I mean this as no disrespect, it's like being with my most dearest grandfather. Having grown up in the UK separated from him in the south of Italy, our few memories shared together were through cars. I can remember it as if it were yesterday - the two of us, not having a word in common between us, yet connected through the passion of engineering and beauty of that old fiat Cinquecento. Finding your channel has reignited all those fond memories - the smell of engine oil, the smell of cigarettes and black coffee, the beautiful campagna roads of God's natural race track.
Thank you so much for these videos Harry, long may it continue all the best and I hope to one day share this passion with my future children and grandchildren.
When Harry starts with a classic car, guided by a classic paper map to do a classic road trip..... You know you`re in for a real treat... That car... Those roads.... That scenery..... Those hotels.... Just wonderful Harry. More please
I live vicariously through these videos. Absolutely fantastic video, Harry!
My favorite type of videos from you, Harry! I became addicted to you when you and your wife took your Countach on a long drive, and shared all the characteristics of driving the car which we never usually hear about. I felt like I was right there along for the drive. Great stuff! Love driving my Porches all over America, and love your channel!
Nothing, I mean NOTHING was more epic than stuffing an outboard motor into the frunk of the Testarossa!
For me it was the Ferrari trip, but I love this content
Porsche. Favourite. Right. '
So you build decks for a living?
Firstly the Turbo S looks and sound amazing being driven properly, but the roads and scenery of central Spain seem wonderful. The extra length video is fantastic and really enjoyable.
I had an '89 G50 Turbo and found the same about the fuel consumption. I came to the conclusion that the reason it was so thirsty was because it had a very low compression engine, to tolerate the potential boost level available, and when cruising it was very inefficient. I sold it and bought a relatively economical Ferrari 512TR!
Nothing beats a map, analog Porsche, mechanical watch (and digital extra data watch) and a great road trip. Great Harry!
Paper map!
It's wonderful that you had the confidence to embark on that trip, using the car for what it was made to do all those years back. Thank you Harry for yet another brilliant video, so not only the car, but your travels as well.
I always enjoy Harry's European road trips.
I did a Euro trip on my Kawasaki ZX7R: Calais to Western France, Bilbao, back over to the French riviera, northern Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium and then back home to Essex. 6 weeks of riding and checking out the local areas. Absolutely awesome time. I really want to do this again! 👍
You should do a trip through Portugal, you will love our roads, sights and food!
I can just imagine Clarkson's intro.. " Tonight! James sees some olives! Hammond uses a utility knife! And Harry goes to a Klan rally!" haha
The first thing I thought of when I saw that ceremony was a Klan rally and I laughed pretty hard at it. And I totally read that in Clarksons voice.
Epic, as usual. Just put 811 miles on my Ferrari 308 road tripping around Texas trying to channel Harry as best as I can, lol. Avergaged 17.9mpg on my trip.
@@jazzeffc Imperial system just keeps giving
@@jazzeffc how so?
@@jazzeffc technically US gallon and an imperial gallon
When Harry holds the paper map and I hear the rustle a rush of joy gets me :)
Following in the footsteps of Harry. Ferry to Bilbao, driving old Porsche on empty roads ….wonderful
Just in Las Bardenas Realas to recreate the title picture. Amazing place.
I love that analog thermometer! How cool! Not sure I’ve ever seen that in a car.
My God Harry, this 930 looks particularly spectacular! Especially with those RuF wheels! My favorite "CZcams" car by miles!
I hate the way it looks. Compare it to something like a Testarossa and it’s downright ugly. The whale tale, the race spec front bumper, this red colour. Not pleasant to look at
@@Gaudine Another vote for the 930. 911 is a special shape for a supercar for me. I always thought the Testarossa looked lardy. Each to their own.
@@Gaudine I understand that Porsche's styling is not to everyone's liking. I used to dislike them too. But the thing about Porsche is once you learn the history, where Ferdinand Porsche came from, and how he started making cars, you can't help but falling in love. If you understand how important the 930 turbo is to the automotive world, I believe you will see beyond the quirky styling. But then again, that styling to me is one of the greatest!
@@Gaudine really?! You must certainly be in the minority. The 911 is a triumph of design and if form follows function it functions perfectly. Harry’s 930 is achingly beautiful from all angles. Simple yet handsome, the Testarossa is a good looking car no doubt, yet compared to the 930 it’s fussy and angular.
@@DogtaInc Ferdinand Porsche was a Nazi and designed the Volkswagen (Beatle) for Adolf Hitler.
Oh, as a Swede how this made me miss Spain, (it's wonderfull views, roads and weather), when I see this. 10 years ago I lived in Spain with my then wife (who is from Spain), who had started a dog kennel for Italian greyhounds that I too was a part of. One important thing with having a kennel is that you have to travel to dog-shows to show the dogs, so there was a lot of traveling all over Spain and I had the same experience as you: it is vast, the scenery is jaw-dropping and the roads are superb and mostly empty. We traveled with all the dogs and dog-show-stuff in a 2007 Renault Scenic dCi - a really comfy mile-eater and much less heavy on the fuel with 5 liters/100 km. The only draw-back was that the only things I got to see, except from the wonderful vistas, was crowded, noisy, a frankly mindnumbingly boring dog-shows. Would love to go back to just travel arround at random and see all the nice places we just passed by... Roads you should travel, if you haven´t done it: the N211 from Alcañiz towards Madrid (or vise versa) and all along the northern coast. I have to confess that Spain is the country where I have driven the fastest for the longest time - once before the dog-kennel time, me and my wife drove a Ford Focus across Spain from Bilbao to Barcelona, doing 180 km/h for hours on end. The roads were smooth as F1 circuits and totally empty!
LOL, wasn't that literally a Renault Scenic that went crazy over the centre line & nearly took Harry out around half way through the video?
Once again, Harry is THE guy.
This channel has replaced my want for a quality watch of the Top gear type of show. Not the studio stuff but the road trip type segment. Great job Harry and Co.
Cheers
Top Gear and Grand Tour are made completely redundant by this.
Officially my favourite automotive CZcams channel. Love these trips, especially when there is a paper map involved. Never knew that about the green lines to show scenic routes,
Google maps certainly hasn’t got that feature! Cheers Harry! 🍷
Every time I see this car I fall more in love - absolutely gorgeous (despite the mpg). Glorious!!!!!!
This is my ideal social media channel, and host, paper maps, road trips in pursuit of historical sites, nice hotels, and great sceneries… Finally a language I understand and appreciate.
Harry always makes my sundays! I sometimes even find myself watching the old road trips 😊😊 Thank you and keep it up Harry
Just what I needed - another of Harry's great road trip vids. Can we just do a shout for Mrs M as well, putting up with being left on the verge to shoot all the drive-by action.
As a Spaniard I’ve got to say I could not put most of these places on the map, now thanks to you I know where I may have a chance to go on my holidays (not to the hotels though).
Wonderful video all the way through, had me glued to the screen!! Fantastic work and effort, this is pure enjoyment.
The car is a a jewel, gorgeous, but it drinks the fuel so fast… you really need to have some big bugs to maintain it!
As some people say, speed is demonised here, the authorities want to collect as much money as possible, and they really don’t care about our security. Every year they are making us have more troubles when getting the car. If you want to go for a fast ride the best option is a track day (probably not cheap, but cheaper than a fine for sure) or do it in a radar free zone you know well of some highway at night, when there is no traffic and the weather allows it.
Finally, I think there is a big car culture in our country, but obviously not as much as in Italy or the UK. Many people organize events and classic cars reunions, but they tend to not have too much attention
What a dream. Hope to experience this car in my lifetime.
Well done Harry! Great as ever. I have a 911 Speedster and when you check the oil, you have to do this with a running engine! Really true! Best wishes from Germany, Simon
That's a very exotic car 🥇
@@visionist7 You are correct. Always check the oil with the engine running and at full operating temperature. I have had good luck keeping the oil tank level at approximately half full without any issues. Fantastic video Harry!
Absolutely love watching these road trips Harry 👊🏻💕🇨🇦
This is how to live life my friends.
Anything else is just not cutting it.
100%
As an 911 owner I consistently surprise myself with how geeky I am with these videos. Hence, I suppose, I love Harry's videos. Lovely Content!
YES! At last! The old Harry is back. A Porsche 930 and not something electric. I love the tour videos.
I could only dream about 12 mpg when I had my Jaguar XJ81 (XJ40 V12 6.0L). I had a 6 mile return commute to work in stop/start traffic and got 6 mpg - a gallon per day. Mind you, it was a great place to sit in a traffic jam.

Agree. Here in Spain is not like other countries (e.g. best example is Germany) in relation to car culture. Also you won't see beyond regions like Madrid & Barcelona city and some few others, "sport cars", or like in Puerto Banus and surroundings, where many EU and Arabian goes for vacation and bring their sport cars.
One of the factors, here in Spain, is the cost of buying a car is expensive, between VAT, registration tax and others, luxury and powerful cars could cost you around 30-35% of the value of the car being taxes, also the GDP per capita compared to other EU countries is not so high, that's why you will see mainly small cars as top sellers. Plus beyond SEAT, there is no "historic" car brands, like Italy.
Also historically the government and their "traffic" management branch, the DGT, always criminalized anything related to cars and impose strong restrictions in everything related to it everywhere. For instance in this video, if you were a spaniard, the "Guardia Civil" as they are the traffic control police (except Vasque country and cataluña), for some actions in the video and taking the video itself as a proof, they could you impose the corresponding tickets, considering in some places it was driving over the speed limit or due some accelerations considering it reckless driving, etc... (really stupid, but is the philosophy here..) The investment in speed cameras is relevant, for instance there are several helicopters with speed cameras. The police is "pushed" hard to impose traffic tickets for everything to allow the government take plenty of money (big part of the treasury of the DGT with the tickets goes to other government sectors as cashpool). Also here if you drive an expensive car, there is a culture here to treat you as d....head, there is quite a lot of jealous people, that's why also many people is reluctant to drive their expensive cars regularly.
Sad but it seems to be a global trend in the whole world. An ending said Jeremy Clarkson one day. The end of an era.
Very interesting
Just like southern Italy really. A shame
It's is very EU "disease" and France has become particularly pernicious, particularly for bikes, and the cops in Netherlands put the Russian mercenaries to shame.
LMAO, that's all bullshit. The "car culture" in Spain is weak not because speed tickets or whatever (just try speeding in any other country), but because in Spain sports cars are seen as status items more than anything else. That's why Harry didn't see sports carts in secondary roads. All the rich kids stick to places where they can show off. They won't go to rural areas for that.
"But if you look at the other side where the car is ....." I just looked at the gorgeous red 911!
Its great to see Harry being an active member of the watch community by honoring the great general Norman Schwarzkopf by wearing two watches ! A beautiful Panerai on his left wrist and an Apple watch on his right. I love the rumble of the 930 Turbo R, it has huge balls.😊
Just brill Mr M as always. Really first class stuff. Thanks for taking us along for the trip. 😃
Wow, truly stunning car and what a trip. I have a Cayman 4.0 on order purely for these type of trips and cannot wait. Will certainly be using your knowledge and experience in helping our planning. Thanks for sharing Harry ☺️
I am averaging 400 miles on a tank of gas in my Cayman GTS 4.0. 23-25 MPG.
There is not a single thing about that car i do not like, even the mpg! it is beautiful..... thanks for another great video harry.
Thanks Harry for taking me along
Love the road trips Harry, keep them coming!
Always enjoy watching Harry’s trip vids :)
My favorite car with my favorite presenter. Doesn't get much better than this...
This feels so relaxing after a week of annoying work. Must be the most beautiful 911 ever. Just gorgeous. And everything in these videos is perfect: the car (obviously), the calm way of presenting this (in englisch English), the Panerai, everything… I‘m loving it.
This brings back memories... Lived in Spain for 5 years, and I love it as much as I love Italy. Yes, Spain's population is very concentrated in the biggest cities and the coasts, the interior is indeed very sparsely populated... And beautiful! It's great to see such a cool car being properly used and enjoyed, Harry's style :)
The Bilbao exhibition is a must-see too, I'll definitely go visit it!
So good to see this car being used, and used well!
I drove a 1970 Beetle with a junkyard turbo system halfway across the US....surprisingly it went well.
I like watching Harry, it really doesn't matter what car he is featuring, he has a lovely delivery. He's not shouty and very knowledgeable, a pleasure to watch.
Lovely trip, I love the sceneries, the culture, the views, the car, the histories, mesmerizing! Thank you so much for providing us with such exquisite quality content, Harry!
As usual, you take us on the best road trips Harry.
This is one of the features that elevates this channel above the rest.
Magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that's a REAL car!
I love when you document your trips abroad Harry. Another fantastic video 👏👏
The 930 looks timeless. Lovely car, lovely roads, great video!
Got to say, Harry, this is my favourite of your fine car collection (with the Espada a close second). An absolute beauty, shudder to think what it cost!
Beautiful car - looking/sounding. I love your lightening reactions to the near miss too! Thank you for these videos.
Another brilliant video by Harry. They just keep getting better. A joy to sit back and watch!
Wow, thanks for this Harry. A beautiful Porsche and a roadtrip to Spain. What more do you want ? Awesome!
I've been really looking forward to this one. I'm going to put it aside for this evening and watch with a large glass of Rioja.
Cheers Harry!
Another one for the record books, Harry. Thanks for letting us follow along. What a ride. The sound of those turbos is indeed, intoxicating.
930 and 964 turbo are the nicest 911's by a country mile in my view...Probably my age but i adore them.
I also think that Europe is the most beautiful continent on Earth. The diversity of landscapes, cultures, language, art, architecture and history are incredible. Spain and Italy are both utterly stunning. Northern Spain looks like Ireland and by the time you get to Granada it's almost desert...I love the country.
By FAR my favorite car in the garage..great video thank you for sharing
Splendid video! Watching your adventure gave me the feeling of being on one of my own road trips. Thank you for this hour long holiday
Thank you Mrs M for all of the excellent camera work and especially the drivebys!
Just home from Spain myself! The roads are a joy. Thank you for another fantastic story Harry.
Thanks for that, Harry. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Makes me feel quite proud because all that you discovered on this trip, my wife and I discovered in the 1980's on a Norton Commando! I'm so happy to realise that it hasn't changed too much: if at all.
Time to plan a trip, I think.
Commando ! Happy memories 👍 (I hope you still enjoy bikes )
Another excellent road trip video, thank you and Mrs M! You said on Instagram that you were experimenting with the longer format: well, it looks to have been a success judging by the number of views and positive comments - it's a resounding "YES" from me! Keep up the great work.
I love these road trips with these "older" cars. Thank you Harry for this very entertaining 50 mins.
Inspirational and wonderfully authentic, watched in one sitting! Thanks Harry and your wife 👍🏻
Thank you for the wonderful vicarious experience on the roads of Spain in one of automotive history's most epic cars!
Two items worth mentioning:
The 930 (and all air-cooled 911's I presume) must have the oil checked with the engine running. Also, 930s are spec'd to accept higher-viscosity motor oil, typically 20w50.
10w40 is fine but, yes, the engine must be running to check the level.
surprise Harry bought no Syntethic oil. which is better that standard.
Love your videos Harry especially this one in Spain, we travel in our Z4 three to four times a year and have stayed in two of the Parador’s you stayed in, even had the same room in one. I must agree with about the roads in Spain, they are fantastic especially when you don’t see a car for mile after mile. Cheers 👍
What a fabulous video Harry, thank you. Inspiring us all to get out there and tour new locations, even if ours are without the amazing sound of a 930 building boost. Awesome! Please do keep these videos up. The mixture of seeing your cars being enjoyed, understanding the little quirks and taking in new locations is great viewing.
That Porsche is just stunning it’s my favourite shape they ever did and in that exact colour just sets it off against the black. Words can’t describe how good this thing looks 😍
Mr Harry, next time i recommend you Galicia or Asturias provinces, probably the best driving roads on Spain with amazing gastronomy.
Absolutely! Fantastic driving roads and scenery there. I’ve done it a couple of times in m W230 Mercedes SL which is good GT for those roads.
Would you be so kind to give me/us some key places to visit/roads to travel in Galicia/Asturias ? Thank you
@@stephenw7298 Santiago de Compostela. Cangas de Narcea. Picos de Europa. Oviedo. Leon. So many places that I have forgotten...it's really difficult to go wrong and the roads are fantastic! Enjoy.
@@derin111 Thank you
the fuel consumption is mind boggling!!!
same as my 05 wrx sti PPP Prodrive....
I would have kept the Lotus Esprit myself.
Especially at 2 euros a litre. I'll stop moaning about the cost of fuel in Australia.....
Actually my 2006 Subaru Sti got similar milage averaged 24 liters per 100 km.
@@alexbrown1995 I thought here in Perth is already expensive, but 2 euros a litre? Mate! What rip off!!!
A truly great video, possibly your best and an eye opener to what a great place Spain is. Keep up the good work.
That part of Spain is fabulous for driving around. I’ve done it a couple of times and watching this video really makes me feel like going again.
aircooled engines are tuned a bit richer AFR. And turbo engines also.
That said, it seems too rich. I'd have the coldstart enrichment checked. If it keeps overfueling the engine will use too much fuel all the time at all revs.
Maybe the elevation is also a factor? Less oxygen the higher you go.
RUF and Porsche Motronics DME is a popular upgrade for these cars, though I'm sure in the time since there's even better options now with how advanced electronics are now.
Rich mix on aircooled engines especially is basically the safety net contemporary car makers used to utilize back in the turbo era
Maybe the next visit to Iains shop…
@@Kizzle001 There's not much you can tune mechanically on these cars. It's through the DME which means soldering and flashing. You can try, but you're essentially just taking driveability away or performance or both. The stock DME might have a fuel selector dial for "better performance" but it means super premium fuel at all times. Unless the entire DME and parts of the ignition is replaced, that's it. But it has it's charm in being what it is. Unless Ian's shop has the people to do these things, which I'd love to see. That kind of wizardry seems to be a lost art now.
That's not an air cooled engine; that's a fuel cooled engine...
Thanks for making these videos possible, Harry. I'd love to do a few trips this like one day.
A stunning example of peak engineering
Love Harry's map time. Priceless! I'm a 930 fan for life.
Great video. I love how Harry suggests fuel inefficiency, then next scene third gear gunning the gas. Only one guy can be this calm about 200km range! Awesome!

Great timing Harry, With the end of travel restrictions I was thinking of a road trip to Spain so the video has given me some ideas. Love the road trip videos always useful to find nice hotels with good parking as they are in short supply. Only thing that puts me off with Spain is ferry crossing as I don’t have good sea legs.⛴ but could always drive through France. Love the turbo whoosh of the 930.
Same here with the ferry dilemma. Long trip through France or very likely rough seas and feeling ill.
Great video. I love how it's all about the cars and the journeys, a nice change (or, bastion of normality) from the ubiquitous slick drone shots and glare-heavy slow-motion footage you see elsewhere. Just a nice driving holiday in the sun for all of us to enjoy along with you.
Glad someone else likes ferries - nice to have a good night sleep whilst travelling! The rarer bits of Spain to visit can be amazing! Easter week (semana santa) is a huge thing in Spain, in general Spanish society is much more coherent in Spain so things are celebrated by pretty much the whole town.
I enjoyed the video so much Harry. I'm from the Canary Islands so I didn't know this places either, but what a joy to see. I should make a trip and discover more of my own country, it's a shame that sometimes we don't spend enough time knowing our own culture. I hope you had a great time, lovely video.
I am from the UK and this trip reminded me a little of Gran Canaria. I hired a car and drove into the centre of the island, the winding roads were mostly very quiet and the landscape was beautiful.
@@richardclowes7428 Thank you for coming Richard, glad you liked it.
You know it’s going to be good when the maps come out.
The vultures were waiting for you and mrs M just in case you
ran out of fuel ⛽️ in the middle of no where 🙄.
Great video cheers Harry and mrs M. 👍🚗
My absolute dream car on some of the best roads in Europe. This was truly enjoyable! Thank you Harry!
Great stuff, Harry! Many thanks for taking us along for the ride! On the MPG front, I owned a 1970-1/2 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, that, with its 350 cubic inch, 360 HP engine, averaged around 14 MPG on the highway. But, oh, my, they were memorable miles, as are the miles that you are putting on that lovely 930! All the best!
