Ferrari 288 GTO 1000km review plus why I didn't buy one back in 2005 & bought a Zonda instead

Worth watching for the PHAW sound Harry makes every few minutes.  
What a car, I've a feeling I saw Eddie Irvine driving one near Silverstone (?) years ago ?

how good looking is that car? I love it. And the sound :O :O

Harry is my idol

I admittedly haven’t driven many cars, but non adjustable steering wheels in THE best sports car seems wild

The best. My favourite perhaps behind only the daytona and Muira.

I love that when you click harry's videos you can hear the car roaring away on the road.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

love your excitement. never gonna make a license, never gonna have any of this as a priority. but i can feel in and appreciate my childhood dream cards like that.

288 has the best body work of any ferrari ever

My favourite ever Ferrari. Drop dead gorgeous looks, fabulous sound, driving nirvana.

My dream car, only the gto tops it

I can't believe that Harry took £3.5m of car onto the beach 😮 can you imagine that phone call "yeah, well, Mr F, you know I took your car for a week, I thought it would be nice to take it to the beach, to build some sandcastles and watch the donkeys. And. Well, you know. Before I knew it, the tide came in quicker than I expected and it got stuck in the sand. But don't worry, the RNLI got me out and I'll bring the car back once it's dried out and I've got all the sand out of the turbos...".

So basically, anything other than an oil change is an engine out job

Hope the farm is not worth more than a £million good luck

As italian, how couldn't i dislike this Magnum P.I 308 on steroids...? LOL

I can't watch another second I am so busting with adrenaline just watching this, and full of joy/envy at Harry's cars AND motorbikes. What a cool, smart guy Harry is! Incidentally, I've bought every Evo magazine since it's launch...

And the friend is saying at the end of the video “you took my car to a f””kin beach”😮
£3million about to dissolve 😩

The owner must be bloody good sport!
Hope he was ok with his car being driven on a sandy beach, I would have been spitting fire🔥

750.000 views says it all

I'd go this car before any modern Ferrari

Good man Harry.....I think I'll cross it off the list.

Car prices are ridiculous now.

Just had 2 watch again… 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Wow! What a car that is.. 😮

This car amazing as it is represents why I am obsessed with F355 so much. An updated car with better interior and exposed gearbox that sounds better for 20th the price!

Harry doesn't seem to be short of money

The f40 has always been my favourite Ferrari, however the more I see this car, especially that front end profile, the more I love it

Always loved the gto. Absolutely stunning car. Ferrari’s design department was on point in the 80’s.

Maybe the most beautifull car of all the times...

Cheers Harry, probably my favourite car of all time along with the F40. The more you look at it the more beautiful it becomes, amazing!

Carburetors? I think it's the first ferrari with electronic fuel injection.

What a legend! And the car is also nice.

looks too generic - too much like the 308

I love you Harry.

Perfection from all sides, how sad however the seats are uncomfortable and the space in the cockpit rather cramped. For 3 million £ you should have a car that keeps you fit as James Bond when you drive from Deauville to Monte Carlo in stead of like a retired boxer who once met Mike Tyson once too often....

The exterior is beautiful, right up there with cars like the 250GTO. But so is the interior layout. Gauges where they should be, uncluttered wheel, no piano black lacquer, good outward visibility. What a gem.

This is my favourite car of all time...Its the perfect blend of Brutal and Beautiful..And iconic..I would take this over a F40.

I always loved the 308, and this is the ultimate version of that car, a 308 dialled to 11.

Harry, this may have been mentioned among the comments but the Sultan of Brunei car was originally red and LHD. It was the first one brought to the UK in 1985 by Ron Stratton. £76k after taxes. A testarossa was £46k at the time. Car magazine did a full article on the drive back. I was lucky enough to drive it back in 1985. Registration was B288 GTO. Great video and transported me back to ‘85.

My all time favourite car. Ever.
Little 2.9 V8.
I read that issue of Car magazine In ‘84, I think ,in hospital after a bike crash.
Beautiful
Beautiful
Beautiful.

I'm so glad I don't own one, but boy, is it a pleasure to see a GTO! ☺

I would still buy a Zonda over any other Pagani and certainly any Ferrari, but m a y b e not the 308/328. 288 looks very nice, but it doesn't sing like the 308 and maybe I won't get that gasoline fume headrush as I step on it

If I am not mistaken Eddie Irvine got Ferrari to get him one of these when he joined them.

Great content. Keep on going on trips with the misses and sharing it with us. I must say I'm quite peanut butter and jealous.

F40 much more iconic, epic and better sound

new ferraris should look more like this. it literally invented the shape of all exotic cars and it still looks good. God imagine how much insurance is for a 3.6 million dollar car.

actually the most adorable Ferrari IMHO. It has it all.
