and yet the guy had to get counciling after taking torrents of abuse when he started to work on topgear. Just goes to show what a bunch of fkn idiots the UK public are.The man is a motoring UK tressure.Always loved everything about him.
Well here’s the thing, top gear shouldn’t have been touched again. Chris’ pieces with Neil that he puts out every now and again, completely shit on his top gear pieces. I do hope he’s being well compensated by bbc BUT I wish he just stayed on the internet and the BBC just killed top gear. I don’t like top gears chris Harris character, he will always be best in videos like this and CHOC.
@@CITRUS-- Yeah how dare he chase a dream and a consistent income far exceeding what he already earned. He should've just stayed on the internet. Get over Top Gear.
@@LiamConlanBeyondSabotage Yep it is a classic and as a now 52 year old passed my driving test in 1986 in the middle of what was the most exciting period ever in the car world - just wish I still had my XR2 or Cavalier SRi.
I could watch only Chris Harris walking around warehouses looking at cars forever. Gutted we didn't hear what he had to say about the Sport Classic, one of my favourite 'modern' 911's - Gorgeous!!
Woow! What a Car Collection. Thanks for the walk around and great narration! Each one is a show piece. This is why we love Cars!!! Love my Mini Cooper S!!!
Indeed what will this do value-wise as these cars will only be able to be driven on a private circuit, due to 2028 legislation and Low Emission Zones, etc...
Exactly. These are machines engineered to deliver the ultimate driving pleasure, but their potential is not being used. To use an analogy - what is a musical instrument good for, if it isn't being played?
It's not like I can afford to have a parked Porsche or a driven one but I totally agree. Porsches for me look better used, the beauty of the new or low milage ones is their potencial to be driven and enjoyed, unfortunately like a lot of great things these days their value susperceeds their owners desire to drive them and they end up falling into the investement catagory. I always think, If we were all able to look into the far future we would see that all these cars will one day ceast to exist so why not use and enjoy them whilst you can? Although in England these days driving on public roads is torture so I probably wouldn't use them either....
Thing is, once a car has got to a certain age without accruing many miles, nobody is then brave enough to drive it. Like owning an unopened vintage wine, who is going to be the one to buy it and actually drink it?!
That's a couple of 'collections' on CC lately - would be nice to know the background - is there a 'Mr Leonard' and why is he selling or has he died etc. Doesn't need detailed info, just some context for the sale would be good
You know when he made the remark about how thin the rear windshield is by closing the door of the gt3rs 4.0.. No one is better than chris harris PERIOD.
I struggle to think of anything I like more in the "car genre" than videos of this chap looking at car collections. There's another one - arguably even better where he looks at BMWs etc. If you're of a certain age, it doesn't get better than this.
3:30 Who ever gonna drive this car in the future please have a look at the front left break disc. Cracks between holes are kind of "ok" but if the cracks starts from the inner to one of the middle holes, I would suggest to get a set of new discs. In general: what a stunning Collection! Thank you for showing us this!
Simply put Harris - The Man As most have said, this could've been a much longer video and would I have watched every bit of it...... Of course I would!
This. It defeats the entire point of having the car - a superior driving experience. If you want to buy something and not use it... get a Picasso. And not the Citreon car...
Not really, I would never buy a car to not fully enjoy it but I also couldn't care less if other do or don't. Actually pretty stunning to see new 30 yo cars.
@@MrFloridadaz yeah but it sucks that rich people use limited edition cars to speculate. They take away other peoples dreams because their financial advisor told them is a good investment. Manufacturers should keep an eye on who buys their special editions.
Damian from The Carguys was here on his Scotland drive, he posted it a few weeks ago, so it all adds up now, knowing that he’s a huge Collecting Cars fan :D
I'm not a Porsche guy, although I do respect them because they're fantastic cars. I think the thing that gets me the most is that the Carrera styling through the years is just so evolutionary. They're All SO SIMILAR. The whole time Chris Harris was popping off all the different names I was thinking, "how the hell can you tell them apart?"
A delivery mileage 964 Carrera RS? Excuse me? As sad as that is, I certainly have to give praise to the man who had such astonishing levels of self control! You sir, are a pillar of restraint!
The trick is to have another to put the miles. I know a guy with 3 delivery miles carrera gt and has 2 cgts with over 100k km. One has to edge the losses 😅
He’s selling - and no quarrel there.....hope they all make a bundle.....but there’s a subtle difference between when he’s full out selling vs just geeking out. When it’s the latter, it’s when Chris Harris is at his very best. And when he’s at his best - for my money - there’s no one better!
When you own 50 cars, how many miles can you do in each ? And how many do you have to move to get to the one you want ? My questions is this ... with interest rates so low, is the cash really worth more than these cars ?

Chris Harris looking at car collections in a shed is my favourite RUclips sub-genre.
Completely agree.
Me too man...me too
Second that notion
I’d watch these types of videos with Chris any day.
Less talkin more driving...innit
I really really REALLY wish Chris Harris still did his own car reviews on a consistent basis. Man I love this guy
and yet the guy had to get counciling after taking torrents of abuse when he started to work on topgear.

If you haven't seen it, check out his review of the Alfaholics GTA-R. Chris at his best, and just wonderful to watch.
This video could have been 4 hours long and I'd have sat and watched the whole thing intently.
Can we have then also andreas (idk his last name) the porsche dude for a day
I wish it was 4 hours long!!
SAME
WOW, I love these Cris Harris videos when he walks around with his jaw on the floor - nearly as good as the 80's collection he did!
I watch that 80’s collection video once a month 😂

@@LiamConlanBeyondSabotage Link please
@@Sokman00 yeah mate! :)
I could listen to Chris talk cars all day long...
His knowledge, love and enthusiasm is captivating...
Titanium rods really come into their own on those 200 delivery miles pre-break-in on the way to the heated garage.
Agreed. Pointless beyond no point whatsoever. Disgraceful.
Absolutely agree, the way I perceive it, these are just some other 'investement commodities' in one big 'portfolio'.
What an utter shame!
I could watch only Chris Harris walking around warehouses looking at cars forever. Gutted we didn't hear what he had to say about the Sport Classic, one of my favourite 'modern' 911's - Gorgeous!!

Great video. I find it so sad that there are so many great cars that have hardly been used.
Woow! What a Car Collection. Thanks for the walk around and great narration! Each one is a show piece. This is why we love Cars!!!
Love my Mini Cooper S!!!
I hope chris reads these, and knows he is truely loved, you could binge watch these all day long, then watch more as he talks about his 2cv ❤❤
basically a collection of paintings. These will never be driven. Stunning but sad at the same time

"Ignore the Fiat for a minute..." Savage 😂
bahahahah
OMfG !!!! Well done Chris, would have loved to spend the whole day in that "shed"! Thanks for the upload.
His presentation style is always brilliant.
I wish I can talk about cars as freely, from-memory as he does someday.
This needs to be a series on Top Gear YT or more on Collecting Cars, this and the old Bimmers and Mercs collection are outstanding!
Had to watch this twice. Absolutely astonishing all minters.
I would watch 500 videos of Chris just walking around and talking about cars in a random building.
SAME!
Wow, good God, thanks for the walk around Chris, I think I'd be in debt till the end of time with all those going to sale near me, Rj drooling in Oz
So glad all of these are pretty much new, perfect for me to daily
Fabulous. Simply fabulous. A sensational opportunity to walk among the greats, with one of the greats!
I really loved watching this car collection video. To the owner of this collection, nicely done!
I never expected him to show this stuff to the public but it makes sense if they are going on collecting cars.
Wish I had a shed off cars like that.
Chris’s Harris say’s it how we would. Brilliant videos. 👍
Thing is, once a car has got to a certain age without accruing many miles, nobody is then brave enough to drive it. Like owning an unopened vintage wine, who is going to be the one to buy it and actually drink it?!
whistlindiesel
LOL good comparison
No point in having a car and not driving it.
This is the difference between an OG car journalist and a youtuber/influencer. You can actually feel the passion when he talks about the details.
listening to CH is just plain therapeutic for a gear head especially a Porsche lover.👍👍
I've seen a few videos this year, but this take the cake and eats it.
Agreed
Chris Harris is without doubt the best car presenter out there. He should be on BBC 2 every week with his own show. Obviously with Johnny yes. 👍🏆🇬🇧
That's a couple of 'collections' on CC lately - would be nice to know the background - is there a 'Mr Leonard' and why is he selling or has he died etc. Doesn't need detailed info, just some context for the sale would be good
He is a real person. He runs a business dealing in JCB type equipment. The place is near my house.
@@MrFloridadaz thanks, he's clearly done well from that, good on him
You know when he made the remark about how thin the rear windshield is by closing the door of the gt3rs 4.0.. No one is better than chris harris PERIOD.
Sold! Do you deliver?
Chris walking through a garage of cars. Name something more entertaining to watch
Can't
That guards red 930 is my absolute dream car....has been for as long as I can remember.
Can't believe that JK got rid of that purple RS! Wonder what he replaced it with?
JK?

I never knew blue paint is faster than red paint 😆😆. I just love watching your enthusiasm over cars 👍👍.
Listening to Chris Harris talk about Porsches, is like listening to Socrates discuss philosophy
agreed
He knows nothing about cars then.
5:11 "IGNORE....THE FIAT FOR A MINUTE!" ahahaha
It's almost sacrilege that some of these have so few miles, they should be driven and enjoyed
Omg this collection is unreal, I’m jealous envy!
Thank you for this brilliant walk around! What a treat! Cheers!
Is it a private collection owned by one person?
Yes.
I struggle to think of anything I like more in the "car genre" than videos of this chap looking at car collections. There's another one - arguably even better where he looks at BMWs etc.
If you're of a certain age, it doesn't get better than this.
Where do I get one of those jackets, sir? Thank you.
If you want to sell some cars than Chris Harris is the right man to advertise them.
All Porsches are amazing but those air cooled are just something else. I wish I could afford one.
I could have watched this video that looked at each car for 30 minutes!
Amazing set of cars up for sale but is Chris now doing the advertising for Collecting Cars?
Need to win the lottery this weekend to get that white 4.0 RS. I'll daily it, I don't care how few miles it's got.
That's on my to do for the weekend too
@freepieanchipsgarage M140i
Nothing sadder than a collection of driver's cars that have barely been driven.
Pure car porn! For me, the 911 in all its forms is the most beautiful car design ever. 💙♥️🖤
Agreed
Nice video about a beautiful collection ! But it's such a pity so many cars have so few miles... DRIVE them please!
@freepieanchipsgarage True
Chris Harris doing tours of car collections should be a series on RUclips. Its a jackpot idea

Cracks between holes are kind of "ok" but if the cracks starts from the inner to one of the middle holes, I would suggest to get a set of new discs. In general: what a stunning Collection!

When are these cars going on sale online,
Leonard must know something we don't.. ha Great collection.. ALL bases covered.
Simply put
Harris - The Man
As most have said, this could've been a much longer video and would I have watched every bit of it......
Of course I would!
OMG that collection is amazing.
I’m not sure if “Very low miles” is a good thing.. would love to see a collection that’s actually been used
This. It defeats the entire point of having the car - a superior driving experience. If you want to buy something and not use it... get a Picasso. And not the Citreon car...
Not really, I would never buy a car to not fully enjoy it but I also couldn't care less if other do or don't. Actually pretty stunning to see new 30 yo cars.
Then there would be none to see only pictures.
@@m.r.3275 The owner made £3 Million profit on the sale. Investment. The new owners will probably drive them.
@@MrFloridadaz yeah but it sucks that rich people use limited edition cars to speculate. They take away other peoples dreams because their financial advisor told them is a good investment. Manufacturers should keep an eye on who buys their special editions.
Man, the life's unjust. So many people want a Porsche and there's a dude who has 50 and never drives them.
Can I ask why the decision to sell the collection?
One i didnt see witch ive always liked is the original GT2 with the bolt on wings .... thats one dream collection !!!
What's the official name of that purple? Gorgeous!
Damian from The Carguys was here on his Scotland drive, he posted it a few weeks ago, so it all adds up now, knowing that he’s a huge Collecting Cars fan :D
That’s not in Scotland
@@markpeason6278 I didn’t say it was in Scotland, I meant to say that he drove there during his roadtrip to Scotland
It is near my house.
Holy $#!T !!!, The first two cars I built-but with MILES (I respect Chris even more now-and Yes I still own them)
What about the 996 turbo in the corner ?
Great video, you make it look so easy
Any chance you know the Series number of the GT3 RS 4.0 for my database? i.e. #475 of 600?
I'm not a Porsche guy, although I do respect them because they're fantastic cars. I think the thing that gets me the most is that the Carrera styling through the years is just so evolutionary. They're All SO SIMILAR. The whole time Chris Harris was popping off all the different names I was thinking, "how the hell can you tell them apart?"
Please help, who owned the purple 911? Prince?
Why did you skipped the 996 turbo?
How do you resist driving all these amazing cars?!
When I was watching this I was like in Porsche Heaven.
Was it Jay Kay that owned the purple 73 Porsche?
Amazing collection. Would love to own a Porsche 911 some day
As a 996 Turbo owner I feel snubbed but also wish we'd had a closer look at the 997 Sport Classic.
Only Chris Harris can make a video talking around old cars and listening to the doors closing exciting
Wait, he had a 993gt2? When? Is there Footage?
That 997 GT2 RS...IS THE BUSINESS !!!
Wha tan amazing collection. Does anyone know who the owner is??
Mr Leonard.
Wow, wow, wow!!! This would put the Porsche museum in Stuttgart to shame...
Visited last week, lovely collection.
Did anyone notice the hood on the corvette? L-88, if it's real, it's the most valuable car in the room.
A sense of sadness that some, well all of those beauties just need to be driven.
The might be?
So many candies in this shop!
Chris harris on my screen is one of my favourite things ever
A delivery mileage 964 Carrera RS? Excuse me? As sad as that is, I certainly have to give praise to the man who had such astonishing levels of self control! You sir, are a pillar of restraint!

Add in a few test drives and make it 10 hours long and this would be peak RUclips content. Currently, it is merely excellent.
Richard meaden from evo magazine bought a 964rs years ago not sure if he still has it Walter rohrl bought one about the same time it was in evo
calls the Ferrari a Fiat & doesnt like the sting ray, i like Chris Harris more & more every day! i trust in Charis to know how beautiful Porsches are.
More Chris shed videos please 😅
Longer too
I like that guy a lot but how could he missed that Sport Classic???
Why go through the process of making a great short film like this and not set the volume modulation at the correct level? Just Why?
When you own 50 cars, how many miles can you do in each ? And how many do you have to move to get to the one you want ? My questions is this ... with interest rates so low, is the cash really worth more than these cars ?
So does anybody know who owns this collection then?!
"That's quite a shed, wow"
LOL that cracked me up!
I wish this was an hour long
Same
Chris as always the best amazing!!!!
