  • This is episode 2 of the Idol Chat with Harry Metcalfe from Harry's Garage. Following on from the biographical 'brown chairs' Harry Metcalfe takes Jonny Smith on a tour of Harry's Garage. Despite never working with him, Harry and Jonny have known one another within the car mag and TV industry for a while now. He's always been just as approachable and enthusiastic as you see him in his Harry's Garage videos, and offered to be a victim of the chairs over a year ago now.
    Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
    Thank you to Harry for letting us bring the chairs along to the barn. His (car and farm) channels can be found here:

Also, he would not take that steamer to a holliday trip. Harry only keep cars he will use. He travels in his testarossa, he do hollidays in Italy in his Countach, a car only stays in Harrys Garage if Harry have a use for them. Note that there is no Lancia Delata HF Integrale in there, and he must love those. Why? I would guess, not usable cars. Drive one and you know why. Jay is building a museum, Harry collect cars he love.

    My old man had a Z1300 when I was a little kid in a small town in south eastern Australia... It was blue with gold accents and THE coolest bike in town hands down.
    He was the boss at the big tannery, one of the biggest employers in town and I'll never forget him picking me up from school on the big Kwakka... I thought my dad was literally a superhero and so did all my friends. It was fun having a cool dad and he was the coolest dad and an even cooler grandpa.

    We need more of this……. two of the very nicest humans to grace this wobbly planet 🙂 you are both, in part, responsible for me having a 65” TV in my lounge I never switch on…… iPad and headphones for me…..
    Motor trade from 1980 to the present, with a couple of years farming early on……. still living in and around farming in the South East………… Harry, a man after my own heart…. 🙂
    You both share a similar uncompromising love for vehicles, regardless of their monetary value…… the quirkier the better in my book……. my cars are a mishmash, Trabant, Skoda, Alfa, Volvo, G Wagon and Citroen…… trucks, IVECO, Mercedes (Unimog) and bikes, referred to as the donkey sanctuary……. my current favourite is a battered early Varadero XL1000V……. with Black Widow cans…… all the attitude of a Paris Dakar bike, but weighing the same as a Range Rover, on road tyres…… 😳
    Bless you both for brightening Fathers Day even further 🥳🇬🇧

    A bit disappointed you skipped over the 182 trophy, perhaps not as interesting to you as the other cars, but it was something I think Harry fell in love with on an Evo test, I bet there would be some great stories untold there. Not to mention it's unquestionably the best 00s N/A hot hatch. I do realise your time with Harry was limited though, just hurts when it's a personal favourite of mine!

    I think taking the brown chairs to Ian Tyrrell would be fascinating.

    Glad that you finally engineered that session Jonny.
    Harry is such a dude isn't he ? I watch both of his channels avidly, (interestingly, ALL of my Farmer friends also watch Harry's Farm!), he is so much on the same page as me in views/interests, it is easy watching whilst being entertaining at the same time.
    That was a great coup Jonny....Rock-on mate.😉
