    Is it weird if my favourite part is watching the shampoo go on...? Love the track, love the car & old school engineering. In the old 911 vs new 911 film we did on DRIVE TRIBE, the new Porsche took a big dump on my older 997 Turbo. I'm not so sure the same would happen with the Lancia - but then again hot hatch tech has evolved a lot too. But I still prefer this era if for no other reason than the leather seats make you feel like a rock star. And the crackle from the Lancia engine just makes you smile.
    here's the 911 showdown over on DT

      Hoi Ben, get a new editor. Accelerating sound while braking into a corner. Going flat out on the straight with the sound of braking into a corner. This incongruence between what we see and what we hear hurts the brain. Very nervous drone shorts totally don't work, especially when the engine sound is different to what you see. Maybe ask Chris Harris for the name of his editor. This is unwatchable. Same mistakes as your latest Ferrari vid. I think this is a shame because you have good content.

    The car looks sensational, Ben. The metallic black with anthracite wheels is the perfect stealthy spec. Still an absolute machine all these years later.
    My first memory of an Integrale was when I was ten years old, living in a very rural part of the Peak District. We lived on a twisty single track lane with plenty of little bumps and changes in camber. One day a grey Integrale came screaming past the house followed by a loud clatter and bang.
    I just remember walking up the road to be met by an Integrale, very slowly spinning on its roof in the middle of the lane, with a guy climbing out the window. That's a wild sight for a young lad and I've loved them ever since!

  • @wendysunanmills7102
    @wendysunanmills7102 27 дней назад

    Dear Ben.
    I've been a massive car and bike fan all my life, adored watching you work on T.G and now your own channel.
    I'm a big fan of rally from back in the day (52 now, how time flies!) and did a rally course in Wales years ago. So, I think you can guess what's coming next!
    The Lancia Delta, the 037, Audi Quattro, Toyota Celica, Subaru Impreza (was lucky enough to be super close to the courses back in those day and saw Colin, Carlos and other rally gods racing a good few times in the UK, Wales etc) Mitsi' Evo of the 80's and 90's. Of course, including today's seemingly physics defying rally cars!
    However, I've always wanted to drive the beauty that you've got here, and what a colour!
    I can't wait to see the final results and track day with all the set up finished and maybe see a little bit of drifting from that gorgeous car?!
    Really pleased I found your channel, and I'll be going through all your incredible videos. I must say that the audio wasn't great, so a closer mic' when reporting in the cars would be superb, as I don't like to miss a thing regarding your comments on the vehicles.
    Thanks for all the entertainment as 'The Stig', truly a phenomenal driver.
    Speaking of phenomenal drivers.
    May I be so bold, as to ask you to have a quick look at my friends son's RUclips Channel who I've personally known since he was about 5 or 6yrs old.
    He's a truly great young driver, who has just got sponsored and his track day at Spa blew my mind, I hope it does for you too! To me his lines are sublime and his talent is yet to be truly discovered.
    On his first times racing on UK circuits the marshals took his car apart twice, as they thought he was cheating, he was that good as a complete novice. They found that is was just his natural talent!
    Love the channel, so I'm going to go back to watching more of your superb videos.
    Kind regards
    Wendy

    Track Day at Spa, that blew my mind.

    I used to live on the edge of the Pembrey circuit until I moved to London in '86. Its improved a lot obviously, it used to be dead flat and the suface was in 20m poured sections. Subtle groundworks have raised banking now which gives you a clue where the next corner is. Those RAF nutters dive down below the tree line to repeatedly do practice attack runs. Lovely little car Ben don't let Hammond wreck it😁😁

From all the Ferrari's Alfa Romeo's Maserati, you name it Lancia Delta Integrale in Monza Red with those wheels that you have in that colour, that is what my dream car will be one day! I'm so happy to see you get to drive your Lancia finally, and I can't wait to see more content from you with your Lancia! Definitely should let Mike try it, and possibly Richard. Would love to see a comparison with Subaru, Mistubishi, and the Lancia and see how they fair on the road that would be really cool to see.

    I’d like to see you take out for a drive someone who used to rally these in period ideally in group N (or group A). Did Gwyndaff Evans or David Llewelyn or Jimmy McRae ever drive these when new ? If so would love to see them drive your car in the road and round somewhere tricky like Cadwell.

    Really craved one of these back in the day but could not afford one so settled for a 5GT Turbo, which was also a lot of fun, and stuck to the road like glue. Think it was under half the price of the Lancia. Nice job on this one. More restomod than resto mind.
