  • Paris - I am going to Brussels

  • Well, you you obviously know POG, he let

  • me drive his Ferrari 458 Speciale Aperta

  • back in Spa-Francorchamps

  • well today he's receiving his new car

  • which at this moment I'm still keeping a SECRET

  • Basically you know, just get together with

  • his cars and other cars and stuff like this

  • So... it's going to be pretty cool, I reckon

  • So... I've just arrived in Lille

  • It is still very freezing...And then I should

  • meet up with a friend. So my friend just

  • called me: turns out i was going the wrong way

  • So we've joined my friends and we're here

  • at the Mercedes-Benz dealership in

  • in the north of France - There's a pretty cool car

  • that i want to show you as well

  • This one. It's the Mercedes-Benz.

  • This specific one is a limited-edition model that was

  • built to celebrate Mercedes-Benz F1 constructor

  • win on the 2015 Formula One season

  • so there you go as you can see it's a

  • very good-looking car - It feels like

  • it's you know the sponsors colors like

  • Petronas / Mercedes - You know

  • the green and silver theme going on

  • so here we are in our new car that we

  • just picked up by mercedes-benz c450 AMG

  • V6 bi-turbo - pushing about 367 bhp

  • horsepower

  • well I hope you notice the tiny detail

  • that it's the kind of thing that I really really like

  • THE RED SEAT BELTS - that is.. *kiss*

  • so here we are we stopped at a parking lot - to join a few friends

  • We're going to convoy to Brussels

  • Very quickly, there you go - Nissan GTR, Lotus

  • and our Mercedes-Benz

  • So we just left, we realized - we heard a little noise and...

  • you know the thing that you use to scrape ice

  • well it's stuck in front of the... down the

  • hood as you can see over here

  • more cars joined us like a ferrari f430 spider

  • This one, you'll see

  • The car I drove, the Ferrari 458 Speciale Aperta

  • And a new Mini-POG as well

  • More adventures yet again - the GTR seems to have a little problem

  • battery problem - We're going to help him

  • jumpstart the car

  • Things are about to get wiiiiild here

  • PROBLEM = SOLVED

  • So far so good... we have the sun

  • with us - we had a little bit of rain but you

  • know... mild rain, so yeah

  • Good day ahead !

  • So we just...We're arriving at the Atomium right here in Brussels

  • This thing... this thing is huge

  • We're still waiting for POG

  • As you can see, many many people gathered here

  • there's a lot of people that showed up

  • They answered to his call and came to see the new car

  • So... they're trying to do a photoshoot

  • As you can see the cops here, they don't seem to be OK with it

  • Behind the scenes of the photoshoot

  • Here we are

  • Inside

  • The McLaren 675LT spider - 500 units in the world

  • I feel a bit... weird, you know?

  • Well, first of all this... the seats are made to your size, isn't it?

  • I feel... I feel a bit squished in this

  • *SORRY*

  • I really like the interior as well, full alcantara

  • with purple stitching

  • and a few orange touches here and there, at least I see a few

  • Definitely. Definitely a very nice car

  • You did a great spec POG, great spec

  • *THANK YOU*

  • There you go, actually not that hard to go out

  • See? I'm a natural. I'm a natural

  • So now, the 3 cars are going to do a

  • REV BATTLE...just for you guys!

  • So... let's debrief what just happened

  • To be honest : it's not a fair fight

  • because the Aventador WINS every time

  • I'm sorry - but the sound of the Aventador

  • is simply too beautiful

  • especially when you start revving that V12 it's like...

  • "look at me, hear me"

  • The 675LT is way more gentle, subtle

  • yet you can feel the power

  • oh great - it's starting to snow again

  • That's... Belgium is very bizarre guys,

  • very bizarre

  • So I'm going to go around in POG's 675LT spider

  • First time inside this car

  • This is ridiculous guys LOL

  • It started to rain again sadly, but what are you going to do

  • CARS are meant to be driven, no matter what

  • He took delivery...that's POG

  • He took delivery of the car today

  • Mclaren Brussels, right? just my journals

  • POG: Yes, yes, my first drive

  • POG: under the rain, and the snow...

  • Alex: it wasn't the craziest of conditions to drive

  • POG: But I like it

  • POG: It's good to begin with the worst conditions

  • Alex: What a car - so how does it feel for the first time driving?

  • your 675 LT for the first time ?

  • POG: It feels rather... uneasy

  • POG: because everything is new

  • POG: I don't want to go too fast, too fast

  • POG: But I like it, it's...

  • POG: it's very precise

  • POG: even in Brussels, in those conditions

  • POG: it's a very impressive car

  • POG: I am a bit disappointed of the sound

  • POG: I guess we have to make a few thousand kilometers

  • POG: in order for the exhaust to... *really live*

  • POG: It's a light car

  • POG: 1270 kilograms

  • POG: Which is very light

  • POG: Weight is something very important for the feeling

  • I can't believe I'm with you, inside your brand new car

  • on the day of... collection day!

  • POG: it's me, I'm happy you're here with me!

  • POG: It was a crazy day...

  • That it was... and you're going to be on french TV as well so...

  • Make sure you watch that!

  • POG: First time I show my face guys!

  • POG was hiding his ugly face

  • But now... "OK, let's go!"

  • POG: ...settings... oh, we are in track mode!

  • POG: no it's a bit too much

  • We were in track mode apparently!

  • Not many people in the car world share as much as you

  • Their passion. You're one of the very few

  • to do this, and for this I thank you

  • and all your fans throughout the world

  • Not only in Belgium and France

  • they obviously like what you do - I like what he does

  • He's crazy, let's face it!

  • You do some crazy things, you have that crazy state of mind

  • POG: Yeah...Life is short not to be crazy!

  • Exactly! You have to enjoy the moment!

  • First real drive, we're out of the city of Brussels now

  • after all the traffic jams

  • WOW...You can really feel the power in this thing man...

  • You can really feel the power

  • I remember... I think it was Chris EVANS on the new Top Gear

  • that tested the 675LT

  • and said it was the craziest car of them all

  • So we've been driving for quite some time now

  • The car is incredible - I really like it

  • we just drove around, nice little drive

  • what's very funny & interesting right now

  • Is that I haven't eaten all day, you know

  • and you know Alex, I gotta get my food

  • where else do we go to eat than...

  • The Golden Arch

  • We're at McDonald's right now

  • with a bunch of cars... *laughs* as you can see

  • The Aventador...the Speciale Aperta

  • Renault CLIO

  • Sport

  • He can't help himself

  • Everytime I film him

  • He's doing revs with the Aventador

Good morning everyone! alexsmolik here
