As a sixty something viewer , I’d much rather watch two real enthusiasts than an upstart RUclipsr with one eye on the road , the other on his Rolex Daytona shouting to be heard over his Lamborghini V12. More please.
I'm half way through and they've only just got to Ben's car, through an absolute tour de force of conversation about brilliant 80s and 90s road cars. These two are so natural together, I hope there's room for more collabs.
If it's the one in shot at 11:50 that colour red looks like a "Dealers Collection" edition which is one of the later limited edition Evo 2s. Lovely. I'd personally prefer the Lord Blue or the red "Final Edition" with the yellow & blue stripe down the centre.
Well done Ben for giving this icon the airtime it deserves. I’ve had my Evo 2 (box standard) for over 20 years - it’s still epic, you won’t regret it. Looking forward to seeing the progress. You twos are so natural together, best car show I’ve seen in ages. 👍🏻
@@BenCollinsDriveshave you ever driven a Nissan pulsar GtiR I've had one for 13 years now I think they're really great cars gearbox can be weak and breaks aren't too good four-wheel drive systems amazing 💚
12:40 seconds in regarding the aluminium HF gear knob and the surround KIT. It was me who put that together. I initially made it for my own Lancia, but I ended up getting a lot of requests for it, and it's great to see it being put on cars.
When i was a kid we had two Fiat Ritmo (that’s what the Strada was called here in Sweden) and i remember them being quite fun to drive apparently. My father who has always been a petrolhead and always had Alfas when i grew up was a big fan of the Ritmos. He and my best friend’s dad had a racing team with a heavily modified and prepped Alfa GTV, my father borrowed the wheels from it which had race tyres on them, stuck them on the Ritmo and got his racing license in it. He still to this day raves about how insanely fun it was to throw that thing around.
I love watching Ben and Jonny’s content on their respective channels, but I think they’re great together. Just two car guys chatting about cars. Content for the true petrolhead.
Even in a standard Delta 1300 they were faster A to B than any other hatchback in their day on "A & B" roads. So the Integrale has to be an amazing car to drive & own! These two guys are so relaxed and naturally interesting to listen to! Such a privilege to be part of their conversation!
One of the best videos I've ever seen. Saw it was 50 minutes on my 30 minute break thought ill watch it in 2. 50 minutes later I'm still.sat here. Epic
Men of our vintage know that analogue cars are much more rewarding than any modern car. Driving is a pleasure and modern cars don't give drivers anything to do. The Lancia and the quattro, like the escort of the same era, are the top of the tree for me. Peak car. A very enjoyable video and chat, thanks.
Great cars, in the right environment. Tanc Barratt knows his stuff on these. Italian Heaven. Best looking car in the garage …….Alfa Romeo GTV6 . Wanted to buy it when I saw it ….not for sale.
Great point chaps about the beeps. Had a Clio last week on hire. The never ending beeps drove me mad. Couldn't bear to have one. Back in the old Alfa now and, it's just the engine I listen to. So much more fun. We don't need to be treated like little children all the time.
I´m a 1975 like Ben and i fell in love with the Delta Integrale from day one. There were quite some cars around here in Austria at the time. All of them ruined in the salt of winter roads here. I still love to see one, but to be honest i don´t want to own one. I got my hands on an Urquattro and a rare EVO 6 RS2 Black Diamond instead. They are beautiful to drive and reliable, but in the end they both can´t keep up with the looks of an Integrale EVO. Pure legend!
First car i ever drove! some guy called Dino had a yellow HF and i have forever been in love with this car. Dream to own one, one day but its a piped dream. thanks Ben for living my dream.
Love this. Two 'Normal' blokes talking cars. Lancia is bang on. Love it. Analogue all the way, just opted out of bland company car, and bought a 15 yr old civic 2.2. Had three, love them. Weekend toys, the same, Burnt orange 350z, and 1380 classic Cooper. More of these videos please
Loving your show Ben, am green with envy for your Integrale. Looking forward to seeing you do hot laps at some track, somewhere, when the tune is finished. Get the chassis dialled in. I’m right there with you about smaller cars being more engaging. Hearing you and Jonny reminisce took me back to the Renault 4, Citroen LNA and other tiny cars, that were so much fun to thread down a B road in my youth. Come to think of it, how lucky were we, 40 years ago, to be cutting our driving teeth with the cars, and very low traffic volumes? I count my blessings…
When I was an apprentice, two engineers at the company I worked at had Lancias. One a Dedra and the other an Intergrale. Lifts home from work were a lot of fun!
@Ben, those wheels on your delta look the business mate. Stunning... also, just wanted to say a big thanks for everything you have done over the years providing countless hours of entertainment and a great book i enjoyed reading. Your a true legend mate, and it was you that really brought the stig to life and made him who he was. cheers james
I think your chat about modern supercars versus older cars is bang on the money. And, will be bang on the investment money. The masses don't want bonkers speed. That's only fun for a second or two. They want proper, simple, long lasting fun. As an example, the Miata/MX5 sold by the bucket load. Not overly fast but, a joy to drive around on normal roads to get away for a moment or two from one's everyday mundane chores.
Great video Ben, nice to hear two experienced car guys talking about what they love! Johnny’s right, Pikes Peak 1985 Michele Mouton, it doesn’t get cooler than that!
Love this chat gents. Had goosebumps when Ben mentioned the S15. I've had a nismo S15 for 13 years, such a lovely little raw car. I look forward to the S15 content!
Absolutely love the fact that it's two gearheads having a great conversation in an Absolutely amazing car! Congrats Ben that's a beautiful car they're really hard to find over here in the States. My dream car is an E60 M5 with the S85 V10! MANUAL! I'll have one some day. Just became a subscriber to this channel looking forward to more great content! Don't worry Jonny I'm subscribed to the Late Brake Show too!
This was real car chat, and I'm here for it. The Integrale is an incredibly handsome machine. Then you add it's, at one time, unstoppable rally history, and it's such a damn THING. I luv em. Then you add in Ben finding it a car he wants to own. Really desirable little beast. Great video, looking forward to seeing more Integrale content! Cheers.
Hi Ben, its Tim ex. Ascari, you defo made a great decision on the Delta, spec. looks great saw it on your previous vids. I had a Martini Delta back in the day and loved it, had a BBR remap etc…. but otherwise original. Now have 3 205’s, 1.6, 1.9 and a stripped modded Mi16 which is just a frantic track/ road car….. Keep the vids comin, cheers
Enjoy the mi16, very jealous ….i had my 1.6gti converted about 20 years ago!and mated to the 1.6 box….perfect. God do I miss that car (probably still one of the fastest cars I’ve ever owned…down yorkshires b roads anyway 👌)
So many comments that hit the mark. This is a fantastic video. Two knowledgeable people talking about great cars is what it's all about... I love all the cars they're talking about... I've always been into the unusual and quirky cars that have placed themselves into automotive history... If really doesn't get better than this...
Love the Strada mention. My first car was a Strada was a 75CL and I loved it, even with no reverse gear, collapsed seats and more rust than bodywork. Great chat fellas.
This was brilliant. I'm 48, grew up in the 80s and 90s and they were the best times. Their conversation about cars reminds me of chats me and my mates have. I wish I still had my mk2 golf gti 8v. That red delta is gorgeous btw.
Well, what can anyone say about this Ben Collins, ypu have definitely taken a step up. A Lancia Delta HAS to be the 80's classic car to have. Unfortunately, they're rarer than an honest politician in S/Africa. We just don't see them. The work on that car is top notch, great job to those guys. And to make this episode a bit better, you and Johnny have a regular chat about cool cars. Great video. Thank you.
So much of this conversation rang true with me. Older cars with manual transmissions (and interiors free of infotainment systems) that you can really stretch without hitting insane speeds will always appeal the most to me. It’s great to know that cars like this one are so admired today. Here in the States Lancias are pretty rare.
If you’re ever in Salt Lake City, come by and check out my 94’ Evo 2 that I shipped to Tanc and had him fully restore it! It’s a gem. One of one color. One of one interior. It’s mega
Its an absolute box but there is no other box like it and i cant help find this thing so attractive. Ive only ever seen 1 with my own eyes and it was at about 20m away behind a glass showroom. I feel honoured to have been even that close lol
So enjoyable to watch two down to earth guys talking car sense. I think I'm with Ben on the Integrale vs Quattro thing, I love a Quattro but some how the Integrale is just that bit better. Interesting comments about how loud the exhaust should be and that sounded about right, also, if an exhaust is too loud it can drown out engine induction noise. I also don't like popping and banging sounds, a nice crisp revving engine is good.
Two proper car car talking about cars brilliant vid, 16.50 that red and the way it shines is stunning Only ever seen a 959 on road once and was stopped at traffic lights here in Sheffield and Rowern Atkinson pulled up beside me in his purple F1, we set off together then he gave me that Mister Bean look and off he went, the sound of that thing wS amazing.
Great video! I bought a grey HF turbo in 1997 for 2 grand. Put integrale wheels and light on it and a momo wheel. Insurance company wrote it off when a lorry pulled out in front of me. After that i bought a 16v integrale in monza red for £5500. There were around 20 of us integrale owners who used to meet at a pub near Christchurch in Dorset every month. Ran it as a daily until 2003. Rust had started to creep in and it needed money spent on it, sold it for £2200 to a chap who restored it. Wish i still had it.
I had the chance to play with and modify my Sierra down the Cosworth route and I would happily go back there as the Sierra Cosworth is my hero aswell as the Lotus Carlton.
Gorgeous car Ben love everything about it including the subtle mods and you guys have just put into words my feelings about cars, so much more fun to be had with an older less powerful more engaging vehicle. Have to agree with the Transporter scene aswell even though I have a slightly modified one for family duties 😂
VW-group fanboy Jonny in a great italian, soul-filled car! I’m nervously watching… 😊 But hang on, Juha Kankkunen in a Delta S4 (038) doesn’t link much to the Integrale. And the Quattro S1 never won a champinonship. Or you’re trolling us? 😂 And forgot telling us the Delta was built on the Fiat Strada Abarth floorpan, while on that side of things. But Jonny should have a drive! ❤
HA! Ben Collins, I saw an old TG episode with the very first mini cars playing soccer and lo and behold, a VERY young Ben Collins in the line up of British Touring Car drivers being "playground picked" b y Hammond and May. And then I stumble upon your channel with Jonny and the Lancia Deltas. FANTASTIC! I'm a subscriber now - "Some say....."
29:59 If I was that bloke driving what looks like a Toyota Landcruiser & I saw The Stig & Jonny passing me in that Lancia Delta, I would have thought I died & gone to car heaven! At least the owner can get a t-shirt made saying "I got overtaken by The Stig & Jonny Smith!" Excellent video Ben, you and Jonny's natural conversation had me glued & I've watched the video twice. Jonny, as much as I like the Ur Quattro, I'd have the Lancia Delta & I hope you get one down the track.
just happened on this and i see my car, the full livery evo1 next to bens.. ahhh nice touch. Tanc does a great job with these cars, does it all proper wouldnt go anywhere else.
Just 2 guys having a genuine chat about a car they both adore, ignoring completely there's a camera there. Brilliant!
Just perfect.
As a sixty something viewer , I’d much rather watch two real enthusiasts than an upstart RUclipsr with one eye on the road , the other on his Rolex Daytona shouting to be heard over his Lamborghini V12. More please.
THIS!
Absolutely agreed!
The difference between honest money, and "new" money.
And "Era" pronounced correctly, its not fucking "Error" to all Americans and other non English speakers.
@@Phuc_Yhou I have never met a single english speaker who pronounces era incorrectly
The Stig , Jonny Smith and a garage full of Integrales. Doesn't get much better than this
SO TRUE. Only one thing missing for my taste, the Godfather of all Deltas… The S4💚🤍💔
The collins
I'm half way through and they've only just got to Ben's car, through an absolute tour de force of conversation about brilliant 80s and 90s road cars. These two are so natural together, I hope there's room for more collabs.
The finished Red Delta at the bottom of the stairs is just gorgeous! 😍
I think so too!
If it's the one in shot at 11:50 that colour red looks like a "Dealers Collection" edition which is one of the later limited edition Evo 2s. Lovely.
I'd personally prefer the Lord Blue or the red "Final Edition" with the yellow & blue stripe down the centre.
Lovely deep red
So cool to see them together!! Brilliant.
Well done Ben for giving this icon the airtime it deserves. I’ve had my Evo 2 (box standard) for over 20 years - it’s still epic, you won’t regret it. Looking forward to seeing the progress.
You twos are so natural together, best car show I’ve seen in ages. 👍🏻
I love Ben interrupting Jonny with "there's a good roundabout here".
What a chilled out,easy going video…nice to hear a relaxed discussion between two enthusiastic people…more please! Thanks Ben and Jonny 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!

Ha!so did mine.Brand new 1976 S3.😊
959 is so spot on.... Great looker for sure! 🥰

Two down to earth car enthusiasts - perfect
The XJ220 is my 90s Supercar, love the look, the achievement, the Amiga 500 plus game etc.
Controversially I love the V6 Twin Turbo engine.

Ben your Delta is stunning 👌.Good effort trying to sway Jonny towards a Lancia too.
Great memories hearing, and then watching the Delta S4 scream past on Lombard RAC rally's back in the day.. These cars are still the epitome of cool!
It’s great to see Tanc’s work in our town, almost every day, a rarity when we were teens. Just let me know if you want some miles putting on
Delta is a legend and it looks good for the guy who play the stig drove one
Great video Ben, nice to hear two experienced car guys talking about what they love! Johnny’s right, Pikes Peak 1985 Michele Mouton, it doesn’t get cooler than that!
Jonny rules! Could listen to Ben and him talk all day!

Smithy a motoring legend? lmao.
Mid-90s to Mid-00s is peak car imo - absolutely love my 2004 R53 Cooper S!
Proper chat, proper car, proper vid....

Cool guys talking about really cool cars. Great video
Hands down, the Delta Evo II makes it into my top 2 dream cars to own, only trumped by the 964 turbo. Absolutely awesome looking to this day
Since the car came out I’ve absolutely them. The shape and rally heritage just makes them even more desirable.
Well, what can anyone say about this Ben Collins, ypu have definitely taken a step up.
A Lancia Delta HAS to be the 80's classic car to have.
Unfortunately, they're rarer than an honest politician in S/Africa. We just don't see them.
The work on that car is top notch, great job to those guys.
And to make this episode a bit better, you and Johnny have a regular chat about cool cars.
Great video.
Thank you.
You guys are a great double act. Keep 'em coming.
Two of my favourite car guys collaborating is one hell of a way to end the day!!
Definitely need to get Rich Porter on a track very soon 😊

Right on!
If you’re ever in Salt Lake City, come by and check out my 94’ Evo 2 that I shipped to Tanc and had him fully restore it! It’s a gem. One of one color. One of one interior. It’s mega
Its an absolute box but there is no other box like it and i cant help find this thing so attractive. Ive only ever seen 1 with my own eyes and it was at about 20m away behind a glass showroom. I feel honoured to have been even that close lol
What a spec the black paintwork with the plush leather interior is really nice, well done Mr Collin’s 👌🏼
2 of the most knowledgeable car guys on the net going for a drive in my dream car. Great episode
Glad you enjoyed it!
So enjoyable to watch two down to earth guys talking car sense. I think I'm with Ben on the Integrale vs Quattro thing, I love a Quattro but some how the Integrale is just that bit better. Interesting comments about how loud the exhaust should be and that sounded about right, also, if an exhaust is too loud it can drown out engine induction noise. I also don't like popping and banging sounds, a nice crisp revving engine is good.
I remember 1989 my dad bought a brand new Lancia prisma symbol he had that car for 5 years absolutely fantastic I would love 1
Thanks Ben. Great video. Love the Lancia. Looking forward to more videos. 👍
Cavalier mk2 SRI 130 hatch is my dream car, I loved them in the day and still do now 😊
Two proper car car talking about cars brilliant vid, 16.50 that red and the way it shines is stunning
Only ever seen a 959 on road once and was stopped at traffic lights here in Sheffield and Rowern Atkinson pulled up beside me in his purple F1, we set off together then he gave me that Mister Bean look and off he went, the sound of that thing wS amazing.
What a car. What a pair of passionate blokes. Primitive Perfection.
Great video! I bought a grey HF turbo in 1997 for 2 grand. Put integrale wheels and light on it and a momo wheel. Insurance company wrote it off when a lorry pulled out in front of me. After that i bought a 16v integrale in monza red for £5500. There were around 20 of us integrale owners who used to meet at a pub near Christchurch in Dorset every month. Ran it as a daily until 2003. Rust had started to creep in and it needed money spent on it, sold it for £2200 to a chap who restored it. Wish i still had it.
I think i need a 16v in my life... great show, loved this one, 2 greats chatting cars, fantastic.
My brother had a yellow hf integrale and it was beautiful. Also the perforated seats, gorgeous ❤
Thanks Ben - stig bloody hell this Integrale has been off the road for about 12years' 🖤🖤🖤👍
Tell me about it
I had a car like the Stig.....wow! Brilliant stuff, love to see some servicing stuff and body work upgrades...
Superb. Genuine chat.
I had the chance to play with and modify my Sierra down the Cosworth route and I would happily go back there as the Sierra Cosworth is my hero aswell as the Lotus Carlton.
great clip, two very knowledgeable guys talking common sense about cars, love it
Much appreciated!
Gorgeous car Ben love everything about it including the subtle mods and you guys have just put into words my feelings about cars, so much more fun to be had with an older less powerful more engaging vehicle. Have to agree with the Transporter scene aswell even though I have a slightly modified one for family duties 😂
Two of my favorite youtube guys talking about cars. Great video and great cars from Italy.
Glad you like them!
❤❤yeap!! Just how it should be.. to guys in a lovely car taking about the good times. Just brilliant ❤❤❤zxx
VW-group fanboy Jonny in a great italian, soul-filled car! I’m nervously watching… 😊
But hang on, Juha Kankkunen in a Delta S4 (038) doesn’t link much to the Integrale. And the Quattro S1 never won a champinonship. Or you’re trolling us? 😂
And forgot telling us the Delta was built on the Fiat Strada Abarth floorpan, while on that side of things.
But Jonny should have a drive! ❤
HA! Ben Collins, I saw an old TG episode with the very first mini cars playing soccer and lo and behold, a VERY young Ben Collins in the line up of British Touring Car drivers being "playground picked" b y Hammond and May. And then I stumble upon your channel with Jonny and the Lancia Deltas. FANTASTIC! I'm a subscriber now - "Some say....."
Two legends having great time talking cars , great video ❤❤❤
Brilliant Ben!! I had a 1.9 gti then a Clio Williams but always aspired to the Lancia. Looks brutal in the black
A great authentic chat between two car enthusiasts. I'd love to be able to join in!
29:59 If I was that bloke driving what looks like a Toyota Landcruiser & I saw The Stig & Jonny passing me in that Lancia Delta, I would have thought I died & gone to car heaven! At least the owner can get a t-shirt made saying "I got overtaken by The Stig & Jonny Smith!"
Excellent video Ben, you and Jonny's natural conversation had me glued & I've watched the video twice. Jonny, as much as I like the Ur Quattro, I'd have the Lancia Delta & I hope you get one down the track.
My 93 Fiat Uno was a very dark Lord blue! A really nice colour that we also used when we first restored our classic Mini 😎
What a great and interesting team. I would love to see more from the experts!
Great video. It's like being there. 😊.
Sweet, sweet guys
Great edition and I love your car! Really enjoyable chat; I could watch this for hours - thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The particular lancia model has always been a favorite of mine ,love it!
Same here!
just happened on this and i see my car, the full livery evo1 next to bens.. ahhh nice touch. Tanc does a great job with these cars, does it all proper wouldnt go anywhere else.
Great work Ben and Jonny, love the Lancia
