Wicked. From start to finish. Love the guys for being obsessives but mainly for getting you to there to drive the 037. Well jell. Well ensconced. Thank you Jonny
Carteroni in New Zealand are also producing new 037. Stunning cars. For our wedding I was driven to the ceremony in a 037 and my wife in a lancia stratos.
There's Porsche, Saab, Volvo, Citroen, Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Fiat to name a few that have quirkiness, engineering, racing pedigree, innovation, all of it. Lancia comes on top of them all. There was a time when they were the cars for whom wanted understated yet elegant and dead gorgeous, luxurious and beautifully engineered cars. Also they weren't afraid of trying, questioning the norm and make things their own way. They have built the best rally cars ever, they race rally and many other track disciplines including endurance racing simultaneously, something not many or any other manufacturers can say, all through the amazing yet small (compared to others) Abarth team. Coolest brand on the Planet, by far. May well Maturo Competition keep bringing these beauties to the road and their owners enjoy them fully. Thank you Johnny, another cracking episode with my favorite rally car of all time.
You may or may not have helped sales at MCC but I have no doubt more RC Tamiya 037s will be flying off the shelves this Christmas thanks to Jonny and this video. Lol.
@@kungfutroosers I came here to say the Tamiya version is 4WD lol... I'm a stickler for authenticity when it comes to my builds, I'll be making my Mercedes 190E DTM 2WD since it's on a TT-02 chassis!
Superb , people who buy things like Pagani’s are so unimaginative, when these sort of cars are available, just awesome . One of each please for the dream Garage
Henri Toivonen was also in an 037, for one season I think, before the Delta S4. I love these cars and to be running a business building brand new ones is amazing.. Congratulations to you both. A very rare experience.
Oh my,what a treat! Thank you Johnny for warming our blood with those sights and sounds of the 80's. The rally-obcessed teenager that I once was salutes you.
The quality of the videos done and the style is better than anything on tv, this is what car programmes should be on tv thanks for doing the videos it’s so much better than any awful top gear nowadays!
Wow. What at car and what a video. I've been a subscriber for many years. And never miss a video. But I've just sat with a coffee with you on the big screen. And the quality of your video blow me away. I alway use my phone not anymore. Just wanted to say a massive thank you all your hard work is enjoyed by thousands if not millions awesome job 👏
I went over to Breda in June this year and met these guys and had a tour of the factory, great coffee along with a test drive in the Dark Olive Green “Stradale”. An excepting I won’t forget and will be returning to say hello again soon ! Brilliant video Jonny. ❤
Oh what a treat Johnny! great vid as usual! I love Martini stuff, had an HF Delta Martini back in the day….. great cars… this car looks so well prepared and great to see his utter passion….. they look to have a nice outfit there….. this car reminds me of one of my 205’s….. very very raw, noisy, frantic but awesome! lol…appreciate you doing another great vid! cheers
Oh how badly I wish I had the money for one of those! The 037 is just my utter utter dream car and listening to that car is just stunning! Thank you for this amazing video!
I'm currently restoring a 1975 Puma GTE here in Paraguay, and I'm hoping to eventually do a homage to the 1980 Puma GTE team that came to compete in the Transchaco Rally, Paraguay's toughest motorsport competition. This kind of project is hugely inspirational. My budget is a tiny fraction of what this car costs, but the idea of being able to drive around in my own little rally car is such a powerful motivator. Thank you.
Marcos, I have a friend who has just completed building his homage' to Lancia's 037 in his home garage in regional area in Victoria, Australia. It has taken hime countless hours over a period of 10 years and it is soo worth all of his time and efforts. Best wishes to you for your efforts to restore your Puma GTE! 🙂
@@rallymaster001 Thank you! It'll be 1 year for me in February. I'm hoping it won't take another 9. Australians are a fantastic breed of human. Have met quite a few through the years, and they're such a nice bunch. I'm not surprised your mate was able to restore his car, even if it took him a decade. Bet he loved every minute, as well.
HI , Yes, he did enjoy the creation of his car, as a homage to the originals. Rather than using fibreglass, etc, as the original body panels were,I believe, he created his own panels using mild steel. He used his own equipment specially purchased for the job, thus creating quite a unique replica! Good luck with your own build! 👋
Smith! When you’re bumping your gums about electric cars (I’m an owner but not protagonist) THIS is what I see as the antithesis! I turned 50 this year and you’ve just driven one of two of my all time dream cars (the Ford GT40 is the other). I have total envy, in spades! You’re a fortunate man, well done!
Great video of such an iconic rally car! This, the Stratos and Delta Integrale are just brilliant. Chris Harris’s YT video on being a passenger in all three cars, piloted by legendary rally drivers for a Pirelli tyre day in Italy is well worth a watch!
What a craftsmanship! Words fail, proud to be Dutch! 🇳🇱 Build with so much love for details! And better than the original! I’m a Volvo lover but with a big weak spot for the Lancia’s of that eara !
I was hoping the whole video that you would leave a little more room behind the lead car and give it some welly in second and in third just to hear that engine on song. Fantastic car, fantastic job, thanks Jonny.
It was quite an experience seeing this car at this year's Hellendoorn Rally. Especially the first time at the service area we quite could not believe what we were seeing. A timeless beauty of a car
Awesome video as always sir… Tyrrell’s Classic Workshop released a video TODAY on a Renault 5 Gordini Turbo, the little all white hatch being rebuilt. Seems like an awesome little car… of course the rally one is cool too
The Lampredi Fiat-Lancia twin cam started life at 1438cc went up to 1995cc , believe me one of the all time great 4 cylinder engines of all time . Marvellous.
Lancia did the Beta coupe with a 1300 twin cam and the Delta had a single cam 1300. It was an underbored 1600 and you could rev the hell out of that engine. It would sit right past the red line as long as you liked once it was warmed up. I had all versions of the beta engine and I found the little 1300 was the most fun. It was only 82bhp officially but it felt like much much more. They didn’t weigh all that much either about 900 kilos from memory. Definitely under the tonne
I remember being no more than 3 years old and my dad pointing one of these out abandoned in a gravel car park near Edinburgh. What I would do to go back 20 odd years and find it again! Very very lucky man Jonny! Just to see another one would be a treat.
@@TheLateBrakeShowthere was one 037 brought to Scotland as a competition car I’d guess this comment relates to a beta Monte Carlo of which there were a few dozen sold in Scotland mostly red or green/grey. The 037 has always been so expensive and rare it would never be abandoned .
It may well have been another Lancia with some sort of (likely unfinished) homebrew kit on it. All I remember clearly was it was very faded red and the triangular aero. Like I say I cant have been more than 3 or 4 years old and it isn't in the carpark when google maps came on the scene in 2008. I inherited my dads toy Martini 037 so it was one of my favourites to play with when I was little.
The weather shone on JS for the first time when he is confronted with a few too many horsepower. A few winky moments in the car but clearly the beast is a hoot to drive. JS is in his element and the production quality is as ever lifted to the occasion. Good boy.......
My father had a Fiat 131 Mirafiori, which was 1.6 75hp and was the car I got my driver’s license here in Belgium. Of course I dreamed it would be an Abarth, even made drawings of it. What a time it was for sport car lovers back then.
You forget how brave the original group B drivers were with any of the cars when these were new with the crowds so close, and then the speeds through the forests
As a youngster, I very nearly bought a Lancia Beta Montecarlo, which was for sale in the next door village, with a dream of “converting” it into one of these monsters, but when I went for a test drive, my foot just about went through the rotten floor, and even though it was only about 4 years old, the body had succumbed to rust and it was already beyond hope. But I always thought that it was one of the prettiest cars and I already had been hooked on Lancia rally cars following the amazing Stratos on the RAC rally.
What a great video( We come to expect nothing less jonny). Geez seeing this car again makes me realize how old I am. I can still hear the late William Woollard and Tony Mason commentating enthusiastically as these wonderful machines growled and sprinted around the forests of Wales.
If I ever had the means by way of a lottery win or whatever, this is the type of car I would be buying . Way more interesting and cooler than a Ferrari , Lamborghini etc. Would love a Ford RS200 replica like this
I remember seeing the 037 as a teenager driven by Markku Alen and Kivimaki on the RAC and fell in love with it instantly and Lancia since then that moment. Unfortunately can’t afford one but have a GrY With your signature on it. Please also do my other momentous car at the time a works Renault 5 Maxi turbo. Keep up the good work lad..
One of probably the best workshops with a couple of the best rally cars in it, you mentioned about other rally cars for uou to find the bes in my eyes was the short wheeled quattro with shed loads of hp and then also was the ford rs200, there's a couple of challenges, and also the last car i restored was a mk2 ford granada 2.8i ghia x executive saloon not estate with full leather as standard, challenge, try find an original 😉
Yes please Jonny, more and more classic 70’s 80’s and early 90’s rally cars!!! This was a fantastic video!!! Maybe you could do a series to get your rallying licence and take part in a rally with Rich as your co-driver.

It's an awesome kit with a hard body. Real fun build.
It’s getting the Martini stripes wrinkle free that’s the hardest part! I’ve removed the centre shaft to make it 2wd too. Great kit.
Got mine sitting on my bench, getting ready to build, already have a Stratos and an Intergrale, just need to find a S4 Delta..
@@kungfutroosers I came here to say the Tamiya version is 4WD lol... I'm a stickler for authenticity when it comes to my builds, I'll be making my Mercedes 190E DTM 2WD since it's on a TT-02 chassis!

Superb , people who buy things like Pagani’s are so unimaginative, when these sort of cars are available, just awesome . One of each please for the dream Garage
There's a brilliant video of chris harris being driven in a 037 on a tarmac stage by an Italian lunatic. What a car. My all time dream car.
one of my favourite youtube videos ever. It goes from Chris saying, "that was fast, that was fast" to a terrified silence
A fantastic video 😄
Harry with a 288 GTO and Jonny with the 037 on one evening, this is a dream come true 🔥🔥😀👍
Now what cars do we want Henry and Chris to drive to make it perfect?
16 hours behind you, but my last vid before this was also Harry and that beautiful 288 GTO...
Todays lunchtime with Harry accompanying yesterday
Welcome to my world bro 🏁
Henri Toivonen was also in an 037, for one season I think, before the Delta S4. I love these cars and to be running a business building brand new ones is amazing.. Congratulations to you both. A very rare experience.
The toy van and 037 with the real thing behind was amazing
Sweet sweet sweetcorn! What a weapon! Jonny you lucky guy, years ago my mate use to import intergrales from Italy.
I am so glad this, they, and you all exist!
Bellissimo!
Oh my,what a treat! Thank you Johnny for warming our blood with those sights and sounds of the 80's.
The rally-obcessed teenager that I once was salutes you.
Absolute pleasure. Thank you for watching
Fantastic vid, just the boost i needed to get back to the delta resto thats scattered about the garage😊
The quality of the videos done and the style is better than anything on tv, this is what car programmes should be on tv thanks for doing the videos it’s so much better than any awful top gear nowadays!
You have to ask if we want more like this?
Bring it on……
Truly fabulous video
Oh yes! Please do drive more classic rally cars - can't get enough of them!
Group B monster for the road what an absolute work of art.
Loved seeing these in action in New Zealand back in the day, what a machine!
I know you're jolly when you begin your creative placement of expletives words. That's an indicator of a great video!
God your so lucky to drive the 037. It's probably my favourite car & I have never actually seen one in the flesh.
Wow. What at car and what a video. I've been a subscriber for many years. And never miss a video. But I've just sat with a coffee with you on the big screen. And the quality of your video blow me away. I alway use my phone not anymore. Just wanted to say a massive thank you all your hard work is enjoyed by thousands if not millions awesome job 👏
Never fail Jonny the knowledge and memory you have about the forgotten classics that we dreamed of driving is second to none my friend.

Kimera Automobili have been making an EVO37 for a few years now ... amazing modern engineered version of the 037 . Worth a look but very pricey!
Oh how badly I wish I had the money for one of those! The 037 is just my utter utter dream car and listening to that car is just stunning! Thank you for this amazing video!
Awesome video! Legendary cars!
You can drive as many of these amazing cars as you like Jonny, I for one will watch every video you make.
You had me at 037 and restomod.
Brilliant content. More like this please.
Johnny you left me Speechless.....Wow I remember Biason driving those Beauties. What an Epic rally car. Thankyou for taking me back in time.
The Monti Carlo is amazing. 5:10
Such a brilliant car. Please continue with the rally content, Jonny. It's the best!
Ohhh the track rods....Don't let Richard see you turn the wheel while stationary! Other than that, great vid.
The 037 is my ultimate car. Stunning. The 131 Abarth would be my second choice. Brilliant 😊

Reminds me how much I miss my old Lancias! Nice one Johnny 👌
Not so much a car; more a piece of art.
You’re a lucky man Mr Smith
Awesome. I like the test of latest electric cars, but more iconic vintage rally cars would wonderful.
Just awesome! Lancia have such a back catalogue, the 037 one of the best. Would love an original street version in red!
You could order a street trim one if you wished...

I hope it's coming to the Zuiderzee rally this year, if that's even still a thing anymore
Love the cover you're giving to the mighty Lancia....Great work guys!!
Couldn't think of anyone else I'd rather watch driving, talking with about the subjects, thanks.
My absolute favourite video so far. What an amazing guy Frank is and what an experience driving such an iconic car.
In keeping with the authenticity of this build Jonny went ditch-hooking at 07.35. What legend (both of them).😆
Brilliant video as your usual high standard. What an amazing motor. It did look as though the guys in the Skoda lead car wanted you to go faster.
They were keeping their distance...
"Turn your Volumex up" nice👍
Thanks Jonny, brilliant upload as always. Kind regards from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 !
Cheers!
Fantastic garage 😍😍🇮🇹

Hope you can read my writing which is just about illegible.

Fabulous to see such historic vehicles. Thank you🐈👍

this is my unicorn. always had love for this car, since i was a wee lad.
Thanks, Jonny!
Lovely to watch and hear.
Fantastic iconic car, after the Stratos the most beautiful rally car ever. Anyone else feel they have junior F40 vibes?
The camera shot through the screen is cinematic 👌😎
I'm always amazed at how iconic the Martini colours are to those of us at a certain age. It's essentially posh Buckfast. 😁
