Seen Through Glass why is the Citroën RHD?????? At that price it’s a steal (compered to the swedish Market) and I would love to buy it if it was LHD.... btw, love your content!
Haha, yes but I did say I wasn't considering the Ferrari, just wanted to check out what my ultimate rally car would be so I could work back from there :)
As you'll probably read more comments than you usually do, I just wanted to say you're probably one of the best ratio content/quality in this car industry YT world. Thanks for what you do and keep going please :) (from my confinement in France, J+5 good luck guys)
@@seenthroughglass I didn't want to go to the lengths of writing what @aymeric wrote again only for you to get around to reading it again, just wanted to let you know I smile without knowing it when watching your videos, certainly the most enjoyable car content. All the best from your veteran subscriber in Turkey :) Here since the 4C.
Agree, I used to watch all of the "leading" car youtubers (MrJww, Shmee, SoL etc.) back in the days. But Sams channell is the only one I´m watching regurally and with pure joy. The key is that Sam is very down to earth person and really does all of his videos with passion without fake snoby shit. Stay like that Sam !
Thank you for staying true to your fans and not giving foolish, incorrect advice like some other channels are doing right now. I come here for automotive lifestyle content. You always deliver!
yeah, and while modifying a 1.6 HF might be a bit sacrilegious, you could find a 1.3S (for considerably less money: a nice ones can be found below €15k in Italy) and go from there. But if you're not too keen on FWD (although rest assured: the Fulvia is a great little car) you could probably swing over to Renault (think of R8 Gordini but maybe don't get a Gordini, or R5 Turbo although these are rare super cool little coffin-rockets) or an old Porsche without spending nearly as much money as for a 308
You desperately need this Sam! Suits you so well and the content you could create with it would be so cool. I’ve been a big fan of these for a while now and really want one myself
Great video, always fun seeing you exploring something from that Furlonger place! And big respect for the virus disclaimer at the front of this video. Great to see people with an audience engaging with what is affecting us all, thank you!
This channel is so underrated. You deserve way more views!! Also, you could review a Subaru Impreza WRX STI or a Mitsubishi Evo... Just some suggestions for you Sam👍
Sam, nice touch. You are the first that I have seen of the car community to publish a statement regarding the current situation. So I will nod my head in appreciation for your respect of the current pandemic. Keep safe
I love your content since you came to Portugal! I really enjoy your videos and I hope you continue bringing to us this rally car's videos! Stay safe, from Portugal ❤️
Hello! I’m almost done having my 308 converted into almost rally spec. My advice is, buy that Michelotto replica. You will overshoot that price by miles if you build your own.
So sick! If you going to have a project car and document the process that would be so nice! And Wil be refreshing amongst al the standard supercar RUclipsrs. Luckily you and JWW and in a way Tim are focusing on the classic and modern day classic. Those kind of cars are a lot more fun to watch then the occasional Lamborghini I my opinion. Love your content mate! Keep it up! ❤️
Hey Sam, great video as always and a shame that there is the need to put the disclaimer at the beginning, but very decent of you for doing so. I'm sure for all of your subscribers, having your videos to watch is something to look forward to during the coming weeks 👍
Hi Sam, what do you think about the idea to buy a Golf 2 Syncro (Diesel-Engine). And that do a swap for a GTi Engine? You can get a Left Hand drive Golf 2 Syncro for less that 2000 Euros. So you have a lightweight 90 s hot hatch.
Really appreciate it! The Batman is a fakey. Owned it for about 15 years. Trying it for size and would love to get a new watch this year (if life permits)
*If you get the chance to go back, after we get through these incredibly difficult times, I for one, would like to see you do a video with that yellow Koenig Specials F48 (provided if the still have the car for sale then). Koenig's are rare, no matter what the model, but that car is apparently 1 of 2 RHD F48's. It's done almost 50,000 miles, so its 520 HP, have been properly used a bit.*
Fair play with the opening statement @seen through glass Stay safe and well, your content is absolutely a welcome distraction, and I will continue watching as long as you're making it :)
I remember having seen videos with the 308 Rally cars in. Always thought that it looked cool. But you should get yourself a Lancia Delta Integrale, Ford Escort Cosworth, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO or something like that and make into a rally car. Would be really cool and much cheaper than a Ferrari 308. Or maybe a real classic like the Lancia Fulvia 2 door with the V4 engine. But a really good video though. Keep up the great work.
an Evo or Subie will be alot more fun an controllable in an offroad rally environment as theyre awd, i dont know the pricing for them in the uk, but even converting one of those would be cheap as well and unique to you as there is such a large aftermarket scene for them in comparison to the 308, yes theyre no ferrari, but offroad theyre quicker!
Personally I think since the bodykit on your c4 is pretty rare, why not think of converting it to all wheel drive, put a sequential box in it, and probably power upgrades.
Some good content coming. Nice direction. Unlike some of your British RUclips mates who still insist on content focussed on “which super car should I buy” or “did I buy”???
I’m obsessed by getting a rally car at the moment too, although I’m probably going to go for a group N Impreza or Evo. Just as something to hack around on the weekends and track, and maybe compete in if I really feel the urge.
As far as Sam in a rally car I don't know if there anything better then that 308 lol. Obviously do what's best for you and your channel but I feel that ferrari would be killer....
I think realistically an subaru gc8 impreza sti, an mitsubishi evo from the 1 to 6 generation or the often forgotten toyota celica gt4 will be the best and easiest way to get an rally car thats almost identical to the ones winning wrc championships in the 90's. Or, something that I think suits you better, an hawk or Lister bell stratos. Although an modified 308 would be bonkers as well. To be honest, I don't think you can go wrong no matter what direction you decide to go.
Hi Sam, I build classic rally cars and have a tasty stable of them. Your channel screams out for a MK1 or MK2 escort rally car, or Talbot Sunbeam. Comparably cheep, easy to build, maintain. RWD, big skids. Perfect for the channel.
Seen Through Glass Great choice! I don’t have an Escort in stock currently but if you ever want to come play with a Lancia Delta Integrale GR.A rally car or two 90’s Mini Rally cars which competed in the WRC let me know.
How about a stripped out rally F-Type? You would love it, and we would love to see the conversion. Now that is settled its just a question of rwd or awd? 😁
Hey Sam, question. Does it help RUclips revenue to have your old content re-viewed? I’ve been going back and watching all of your older videos of your 360.

www.motorsportauctions.com/ has a number of affordable historic rally cars.
Seen Through Glass why is the Citroën RHD?????? At that price it’s a steal (compered to the swedish Market) and I would love to buy it if it was LHD.... btw, love your content!
Seen Through Glass what about an mgb gt or a Capri? Both affordable and both are easy to work on.
@@kmmm5847 It's replica! Just wrapped, wheeled and seated! Regular C4, nothing special about it ;)
Your car prices are free if we compare to the dictato... I mean Turkey. Wish to work in an UK based F1 team as an engineer.
"Good luck and don't crash it."
Nice advice mate.
Haha, no pressure
Sam: the citroen would be too expensive to make full tally spec
Also Sam: look a ferrari rally car
Haha, yes but I did say I wasn't considering the Ferrari, just wanted to check out what my ultimate rally car would be so I could work back from there :)
@@seenthroughglass You did indeed, wasnt a bad thing, i very much agree with the line of thought :D

Tomazius996 true!
I can already hear Tony laughing uncontrollably
Haha he has been trolling me all week
Seen Through Glass Haha thanks for the reply unlike Paul 😂
Cannot . Get . Enough of that sound
Old is always gold Sam! Maybe an Escort or a Cortina?
Thank you for staying true to your fans and not giving foolish, incorrect advice like some other channels are doing right now. I come here for automotive lifestyle content. You always deliver!
You can get a lancia fulvia and make it more rally ready
As a Fulvia Coupe owner myself, I can only recommend that. , Still pretty affordable, so much fun to hoon and the sound is heavenly.
yeah, and while modifying a 1.6 HF might be a bit sacrilegious, you could find a 1.3S (for considerably less money: a nice ones can be found below €15k in Italy) and go from there.

or lancia delta integrale
Nurse on quarantine here. It’s a breath of fresh air whenever I see an upload! Thanks for the entertainment! Keep doing you!
Thanks for all your work, stay safe
Thank you for giving up your safety to help the ill
Great advertising at the begining of the video. Thank you for beig responsible.
Difficult time for everyone, including creators
This is what I’ve been waiting for. Rally content by a top you tuber
Hopefully more coming soon!

Great guys down at Furlonger. Always let me drive silly things
That yellow F48 in the back is a really, really rare car.
We’ll converting the Citroen in the rally machine was expensive so Sam decided to get a Ferrari rally car that very sensible Cannot complain though
This channel is so underrated. You deserve way more views!! Also, you could review a Subaru Impreza WRX STI or a Mitsubishi Evo... Just some suggestions for you Sam👍
Glad to see you continue the rally content, this could definitely be your thing to really set you apart from the other youtubers.
Fingers crossed I can get out and do more later this year
Sam, nice touch.
You are the first that I have seen of the car community to publish a statement regarding the current situation.
So I will nod my head in appreciation for your respect of the current pandemic.
Keep safe
- Lancia Delta Integrale
- Lancia Fulvia Rallye HF
- ALFA Giulia Sprint GTA Rallye
Would be great....
I’m totally digging your rally car themes. Keep it up and stay safe!
I love your content since you came to Portugal! I really enjoy your videos and I hope you continue bringing to us this rally car's videos! Stay safe, from Portugal ❤️
Really appreciate it! Hope youre staying safe
Get a Lister Bell Lancia Stratos Replica. They are (fairly) cheap compared to the original. And the looks. Man. Its Worth it just for the looks.
Ooh good call. The originals had a Ferrari engine i think.
@@allanfoster6965 yes, V6 from a Dino
@@allanfoster6965 Yes. But the lister bell uses a Alfa Romeo Busso V6 engine.
Keep up the content Sam, some of the best from the Car you tubers
Thanks!
Sam the contents been fu****g awesome lately!!
That means a lot! Thank you
Hello! I’m almost done having my 308 converted into almost rally spec. My advice is, buy that Michelotto replica. You will overshoot that price by miles if you build your own.
A BMW E30 rally build would be super nice
M3 rep

Test drive a ford escort rs cosworth rally car :P
Oooo yes! That could be epic
The road car is my ultimate favourite car!
They are popular in u.k. not to be found in the usa. Over here quit $$$ in 1 mil range. To 100k.
I’ve got a escort cosworth and a mk2 escort rs Mexico rally car
Check the Triumph TR3 if you look for something old. It would get you into all of the classic events, and it's not all that expensive to buy and run.
Man this is THE BEST 😍
Looks like a grown up stretched Stratos
Hi Sam! Have you ever considered a Lancia Fulvia? It was very successful in rallying, it looks awesome, has a V4 and isn't very expensive!
I have indeed! Would love to have a go in one
The amazing thing to me? Someone thought it would be a good idea to surface a lot that huge with pavers!
How about an original mini cooper? If you wanted old classic rally car? Could be in budget?
Oooo another interesting option!
Check out the Leh Keen Safari 911, Matt Farahs got one and its sublime. Closer to home Tuthil... You know you should be doing the off road 911 route!
Can’t get more classic than a Mk2 Escort with a Millington Diamond engine 👌
Yeah you can , a bda engine built by Terry hoyle is as you put it more classicer
@@miawallace2785 Doesn't make as much power though :)
Love the vid and did I see a batman on the wrist?! Best automotive content on the internet atm, keep it up!!
Really appreciate it! The Batman is a fakey. Owned it for about 15 years. Trying it for size and would love to get a new watch this year (if life permits)

A ferrari rally car is so unique ! Crazyyyy
The MCS sticker in the rear window is from the Motor Club Sabadel!! I was thinking I know that car! I Think I had seen it in our city rally!!
EPIC car...love the wheels
Wheels are so cool! I mean, the whole car is cool
@@seenthroughglass yes 😍😍😍
LOVE that sound! Dream car status right there!
honestly, id say a hatchback rallye car would probably make the most sense. maybe even a modern one. like a fiesta, polo etc.
Love to see you're in my hometown!
Cool to see this unit another time, I’ve seen it rallying in Spain few years ago
Just get a MK2 escort... More heritage, more fun, more more..
I love the panel gaps, true Ferrari style
NICE DISCLAIMER NICE VIDEO THANK YOU FOR CREATING CONTENT
Love the idea of the Ferrari rally car great video looking forward to some more Sam 😃
You should keep in consideration a lancia delta hf integrale, extraordinary car, one of my favourites
I love these kinds of cars. Just like the Lancia Stratos, they're beautiful
I really like the this path. Rallying is very cool.
Fantastic video. Thanks for putting a smile on my face...
That Yellow Koenig looks good
What u need is a mk2/mk1 Ford escort
an Evo or Subie will be alot more fun an controllable in an offroad rally environment as theyre awd, i dont know the pricing for them in the uk, but even converting one of those would be cheap as well and unique to you as there is such a large aftermarket scene for them in comparison to the 308, yes theyre no ferrari, but offroad theyre quicker!

With you love of Italian automobiles it’s gotta be a Lancia Delta for you as a resto/project
The video that I would wait for happily from my confinement here in Dubai. You are the best Sam! Take Care. Cheers!
Stay safe!
Love your content ! Hands down the best car youtuber !!
👍 From Denmark
Go for it Sam! That would be sweet!
as good as that ferrari , i think you should buy the next Yaris Gr if you really want a rally car
Sam, I just noticed you had a new watch! Finally moving from the Sparco and the Speedmaster?
was that rolex?
@@anrysmith I believe so. It looks like a GMT Master II
Some good content coming. Nice direction. Unlike some of your British RUclips mates who still insist on content focussed on “which super car should I buy” or “did I buy”???
Love the car and rally content Sam.
This could be your and Tony's co-investment car. The chaos of you two on a rally would be hilarious!
What a beautiful machine!!
I’m obsessed by getting a rally car at the moment too, although I’m probably going to go for a group N Impreza or Evo. Just as something to hack around on the weekends and track, and maybe compete in if I really feel the urge.
Im still undecided if i want to go full competition rally car or something just to have a laugh in
Classic car is gold… Go on Sam, buy one and we will meet Under the Grand Palais for the start of the Tour Auto
As far as Sam in a rally car I don't know if there anything better then that 308 lol. Obviously do what's best for you and your channel but I feel that ferrari would be killer....
Lanicer Stratos springs to mind as well Ford Escourt RS Cosworth
That is the best noise ever!
That thing is ssoooooooo sick! I love it ! 🇺🇸 thanks for sharing
Awesome ride Sam. You look great !

Look at some old porches once the prices fall later this year. Maybe a 964 or a 930 c2
YES YES YES
FINNALY SOMETHING TO BE EXITED ABOUT IN LIFE!
I love the music in this video...:)
How about a stripped out rally F-Type? You would love it, and we would love to see the conversion. Now that is settled its just a question of rwd or awd? 😁
Take care Sam
You too!
Just take an old Ford Escort and prepare it! Or an old bmw 325i e30 and prepare it properly😍
Reach out to Tuthill's and see if you can try out one of their 911 rally cars! Probably a cheaper base for a rally flavoured classic.
Maybe a BMW 2002 would be a deal for you...?!
Great video dude,
Cheers
Stay healthy !
Ooo saw some great 2002s in LA over the years
You could have a look at building a classic mini rally car, would be way cheaper than a ferrari 308 ;)
1:58 That Merc's plate is one letter short of being extremely explicit
love the sound of old school ferrari
So aggro! Love it
308s are awesome! Get one Sam! Get one!!
Team up with Ratarossa, would be epic series!
Seen a few mk1 Lotus Elise rally cars in the past. They would be great for a beginner...
That exhaust sounds bellisimo grazie grazie Mille ciao
Waiting for scud or challenge stradale or maybe a speciale in this year Sam 😜😉.. it’ll just make stg complete.
Remember the lada Vfts , you had a lot of fun in that
Would be so cool to add that to the collection
