Enjoying these CZcams diaries by Harry Metcalfe- the antithesis of the current style in TV car programmes, non-hysterical and informative yet interesting and engaging at the same time, no background music, no video effects, hyperbole nor tiresome metaphors- his production budget probably runs to the cost of a Sony compact camera in video mode, stuck to the inside of the car. And you get to hear the glorious sound of a Ferrari V12 engine.
It's so nice to be able to go along for the ride.... Thank you for taking the time to make this video! Taking a 1960 Ferrari to London! Does not get scarier than that!! Thanks for the great video, the car seems actually very cool!!
Thanks Harry, reminded me of driving my old bosses 330 GT. His kids couldnt get rid of it fast enough when he passed and of course I couldn't afford the asking price (no discount offered for lowly employees) .Probably has become a garage queen now like so many of them have):
Between this and your 930 turbo you pretty much have my perfect classic garage. I'm amazed at how beautiful the Ferrari looks even in 2017... It's basic but just looks so clean
2:45 Marble Arch Corner - I drove round this roundabout 10 minutes after the very first time I had driven a car on my own. I'd just picked up my company car a few weeks after passing my test and I had to drive round Marble Arch Corner in rush hour. It was a nerve-wracking start to my driving life. It seems to have got a lot easier since then.
A very elegant automobile.....a favorite of mine for sure.....and I’m not just saying that because Harry mentioned Enzo liked driving them himself🤨🤨🤨.....I just happen to have impeccable taste 😏🧐 It’s amazing to look back at the cars that were designed in the 1960s in Italy, America and Great Britain......many would consider it the best decade for pure design....E Type, Split Window Stingray, GTO.........the list would be (almost) endless
The Ferrari dream to me. Front engined carburetted V12. It's not about speed it's the experience, the sound, and the aesthetic beauty. Pity he sold it.
7,000 to 9,000 rpm revs would wear any belts out thats why the belt service is so expensive. Standard cars don't reach 7,000 rpm on a good day. In theory, a Ferrari could be used everyday driven under 7000 rpm revs on daily normal driving. Thoughts?
My type of car....! The petrol gauge issue would be a priority fix (petrol tank level sender shorted out??) as I’ve ran out of petrol in my EType and with triple SU carbs they all got clogged up with debris ...!
A friend of mine had a silver over black 330 GT like this in Ottawa, Canada. He bought it in 1977 for CA$14,000 and sold it to a Ferrari dealership in Toronto in 1989 for an undisclosed sum... but he got a new '89 328GTS and paid off his mortgage with the proceeds. He shoulda kept the 330.
This car has me written all over it. Why did you sell this one? Maybe a lockdown video on all the cars you have owned and why you sold them? I know you did the one with the Zonda but I'm guessing your history goes much further back.
I was in a rock band called "Suicide Touirsts" once. We used to visit all the bad neighborhoods in the cities on our tour in with a sign around our necks saying "We Carry Lots of Cash."
use the odometer as the fuel gauge, 15 gals X 20 mpg = 300 mile range, if it has a trip odometer just reset it, otherwise take a picture of the mileage so you can get on with it without fuel worries, cheers
One of my favorite Cars,enzo had good taste,it was a tad underestimated but not with this boom,,useability is the new thing for car manufacturers to rediscover that and an involving drive,I had a 903 engined fiat 127 ,it rusted to bits, but up to that point it drove,steered fantastically,had a similiar interior style to this albeit in vinyl,would run at 90 mph fab engine, it was so good you forgot you where in a box on wheels, I guess what I'm saying,is if this Ferrari dream is out of reach get an Alfa,if that's out of reach get an old fiat.
Harry seems to be rough with his cars. He's slammed the doors a bit too hard on all his cars. From getting in turning the key, etc there is an alarming lack of smoothness and grace.
What a wonderful car. I keep coming back to watch this video every so often...

“ hyperbole and tiresome metaphors” so true

Every car enthusiast should have a friend like Harry - and now we have! 😃
Pretty 2+2 great to see it being driven how they were meant to be. Love the channel would like to see more classics
ditto completely.
"Astra Van motorway speeds..." Superb!
The car, beautiful exhaust note and the country side. Thank's Harry...cheers
Lovely stuff Harry, thanks for the 'ride' in the wonderful 330 GT.

What a incredible beautiful Engine I have to say this video was rather relaxing To watch and rather enjoyable
Between this and your 930 turbo you pretty much have my perfect classic garage.

Thanks for your reviews, they give you a real 'you are there' feeling.
Stunning classic period cruiser Harry. The Espada is lovely but not sure I could have parted with this especially in Silver......
" 'Just the indicator. " LOL! This is lovely stuff.
Beautiful car!, brings so many memories from my dad`s 330GT back in late 70s
Thanks for sharing. ;-) Lovely car.
Thank you for sharing this with us. It seems to be the perfect car.
She stands up pretty well gettin on her way. I love the sound on the way to redline.
Nice car the steering looks especially good light and responsive and a great exhaust note
It's got a turning circle that would probably challenge a Land Rover Defender in its uselessness. That was funny.
Love how it sounds!
Pure class and the car is pretty good as well.

Quite a nice run that ! Yep
6:07. He said "Peace".
Peace out, Harry.
Wow. Imagine driving this 8n London.... Harry does. Nice to see a car like this being used.
The steering wheel just suits it .
Loved the “keys”
Awesome vid Harry
Incredible history there. A different world from today's cars I'm sure.
Red indicator bit -- too funny.
The sticking fuel gauge must be an Italian quirk, my 1997 Alfa 155 had a sticking fuel gauge too :-D
that engine at 4500rpm's...MUSIC to My EARS!!

What a beauty! Vive Ferrari!
Best Ferrari steering wheel.
Thank you :)
Great car. also love that you need 4 keys for it :)
Doing 80 - continues accelerating through the next 2 gears....
Now thats a car!!!!
The Ferrari dream to me. Front engined carburetted V12. It's not about speed it's the experience, the sound, and the aesthetic beauty. Pity he sold it.
am thinking that isn't a suit off the rack from Walmart..dapper Gent this Harry chap...
Beautiful sounds from a fifty year old car.

I need this car 😍👍

Intoxicating. Salut

Nice video, great car. 1:51 „suicide tourists“ 😂
geez Harry you look like 40 years younger in this vid

Sticking fuel gauge is not what you need in a 12 cylinder car on Weber’s at 125mph.😂
use the odometer as the fuel gauge, 15 gals X 20 mpg = 300 mile range, if it has a trip odometer just reset it, otherwise take a picture of the mileage so you can get on with it without fuel worries, cheers
Mine has 5 keys. Doors , boot, glovebox, ignition and lastly petrol fill cap
remarkable how a 60s Ferrari can make a modern car fly backwards

I know about kamikaze pedestrians but never heard suicide toursists before!!! great stuff.
As jay would say..."pavoratti.."
To 'RufusT9' couldn't agree more with what you say.
The best ferraris are from the 60s
Sure are!!!
"Suicide tourists" - bloody savage Harry as usual :)))))
You get a lot of Points for that he quips😆
The antidote to all that Clarkson bullshit!
GOTYOU............
If, I ever have the means.....
...only a shame that there's a Range Rover in the garage!
Please improove sound as back noise drowns what you are saying :-)
wHO else discovered evo diaries in 2020?
0:09-3:48
Suicidal tourists! Haha Just discovered vintage Harry. Great.
At least they weren't both on the phone and running too . Times have changed a lot for the worse in half a decade or so .
With all those keys at least no body is going to steal your gloves.
Bring back the facial hair!
Harry seems to be rough with his cars. He's slammed the doors a bit too hard on all his cars. From getting in turning the key, etc there is an alarming lack of smoothness and grace.
Doesn't do the cars any harm... he's a journalist not a ballerina.
I think Leno's done the same thing.
