More comments and observations to come. I seem to experience some sort of downloading problem which was not evident when I originally located the videos. Anyway, as I said, more to come and I hope you will enjoy the videos.

Yes BenzBoy, as you said, perfect, just perfect. There is just so much to appreciate, to like, to want, from those videos. Many times, I have seen pictures of the Bugatti, and I'd think how unattractive they were. With these videos, you actually get the opportunity to see the car under actual, everyday conditions - in fact, one is part of the driving team. Well, that's my impression, my idea of rambling on, and I do now think of it as a beautiful car.

The Mercedes ? Also quite magnificent. So 'all together' with its colour scheme and very simple, but classy wheel furnishings. The dash, with those instruments, just ever so classical. Hmmm.......what a great pair. Incidentally, we've had a 1935 Bugatti Open wheeler in the workshop, and we have heard that eight cylinder engine run - in sound, with its harsh bellow, it's probably the equivalent of a Ferrari sound - but just seventy years older.

The Rolls Royce ? Magnificent 'Camera' car. Regards Styria

I remember posting this a few weeks ago.

Anyhow it is great to see the two superb cars again.

Tim, now that you mention it, I seem to recalll that someone (obviously you) had posted the video on TK. Mind you, that was part II that you posted. I had saved the video in my Real Player file, and when I stumbled across it the other day, I thought it'd make a great read on TK.

As at this stage I am not able to upload from my Real Player to TK, I looked for the video on Internet Explorer. It was then that I came across Parts I and III. Anyway, they are safely ensconded now in the system of TK. Regards Styria
