Love seeing these driven, and even a little banged up and going hard, instead of hidden away in some fancy facility with no gas in them. Cheers, Gabriel!
Merci Valentin et Petrolicious pour cette belle vidéo. La Beta Montecarlo est une voiture magnifique sublimée par cette livrée Martini. Superbe projet, et bravo de faire perdurer cette belle marque. #makelanciagreatagain
No engine or interior shots. Narration did not need subtitles, his passion for the car came through, and I'm glad that you didn't dub or loop him. Wonderful story! He is a true "Passionati!"
I saw this car in the early days, in the Rallye of Portugal... I think it entered the Rally of Portugal again in 2012? (again, there was no Martini ‘stickers’). What a superb machine 😀
This has to be one of the most striking cars Lancia has ever made. It looks brutal and bruised, yet not so bad that it looks like it is falling apart. No, it looks like it has been through a couple of rounds and has gotten back up to take on more! Beautiful yet worn; old but not out of fashion; it is as though it is moving when it is completely still. Combined with the iconic colors of the Lanica Martini racing and this car looks as though it is ready to rally again. Seriously though it is terribly sad to see the cars Lancia makes today compared to the one's they made in the past. I really wish there were more of Lanica cars like this in the U.S and around the world. #makelanicagreatagain
I read it was because of the oil crisis. Plan was to have a six cylinder in it, but due to the oil crisis Fiat abandoned the plan, then Lancia gave it a go with a four cylinder.
@@kasimirdenhertog3516 Not sure, the Lampredi V6 was too large, and the final twincam was a Fiat engine too. I believe it was always meant for the twincam. But yes maybe Fiat chose to call it ”Lancia” due to the oil chrisis, as they thought a low selling X1/20 might hurt the brand. Hurting the Lancia brand did seem less of an issue over the years, for Fiat…
Resto-modding my own here in northern Cali. These are amazing little cars that I guess everyone will now know about. Check out my "Spaghetti Western" build series if you are curious...
I always dreamed to do something similar if I had found a car that needed some kind of restoring (with a 2.4 Dino engine).. but when I turned 18 a couple of years ago, my dad gifted me a Montecarlo (S1, targa) that was already in pristine condition.
Resto mod a Lancia Monte carlo? Haha that's its value dead and buried.. Standard homologation car values in Europe are going up daily.. £25k + for a basic well looked after car, and anything with rally pedigree in its provenance going through the roof.. My brother had a monte carlo that the previous owner had rebuilt mechanically with an Alfa 24v V6 engine, suspension, brakes etc all upgraded. Even that sold for over £20k with the buyer purchasing it to return to standard as it was financially viable..
A lancia revival would be amazing. It’s a shame that the win on Sunday sell on Monday mentality has gone. Even WRC isn’t using homologated cars anymore.
The introduction of a WRC is what killed rallying. Standardization, standardization, standardization until there was no functional difference between the Monte Carlo Rally and the Safari Rally
Gregory Timmons Agree. But they would need to prove the new models in motorsport. They can't just rebadge Alfa Romeo models. Enthusiasts see straight past that.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes Why would it be below Alfa? Let Alfa Romeo do their sports car thing and Lancia do the Grand touring/Limo. I think thats where their niche was originally and still is today. If the design is right, you don't need 400+ Hp to compete. Just elegance!
yes, the Lancia Scorpion was on sale in the States for only two years, 1976-77. Lancia couldn't use Monte Carlo name because Chevrolet was using it at the time, because of federal emissions it only had 81hp (Europe 120hp).
Corolla→Celica; Stratos→Beta MC. Guy has it in for near approximations, eh? Prefer the passion in the approach of people who make conscious, rational choices about things and actually have the mechanical and engineering knowledge and skills to appreciate the cars they drive... (That's 90% of this channel; keep it up, guys, and thanks!)
I'm so sorry to say this as I've loved your films, but this and the one from Australia are too dense and the music just over crowds. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE your films, but lately.....
That was my first thought, too. There was a Lancia Beta Montecarlo Group 5 track car and the Lancia Rally 037, both using the silhouette of the Beta Montecarlo. But the car which is shown here never raced (in the Martini works team).
Yes! More Lancia recognition!
Why have a Martini shaken or stirred when you can have it rallied?
I'm pretty sure a rallied Martini is a shaken Martini.
Love seeing these driven, and even a little banged up and going hard, instead of hidden away in some fancy facility with no gas in them. Cheers, Gabriel!
The Martini livery of white and red/blue/black stripes is one of the most recognisable in the history of motorsport.
Whenever I see these Lancia race cars, they always remind me of Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo.

People want to read what he is saying , you can choose to remove the subtitles
This is just beautiful
Beautiful video, so nice he is finding that unique car in Lancia´s rallying history, AND using it as it should be used!
Une bien belle histoire pour une bien belle auto.
Félicitations pour ta passion Gabriel
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely stunning, always a joy to watch petrolicious films.
I can never get enough of these videos
My uncle had a Lancia Beta, it was beautiful, and it was the basis of mythical 037
I saw this car in the early days, in the Rallye of Portugal...

Magnifique vidéo comme toujours d'une réalisation exceptionnelle. Un grand MERCI
Finally a proper car! Joking😝 but now we rolling.. Montecarlo.. my favorite car😍

All those old cars have so much character very special
And that awful fire of notre
Great clip!
Fun fact: it was first conceived as the Fiat X1/20. For reasons unknown it was shelved and later ressurected as the Beta Montecarlo.
Per Eldh too special to be a mere Fiat, that’s what they thought back in the days!
Elia Dal Canton Although in those days, Fiats were more special!

As soon as I had watched the video I wondered if you had watched it too and...here is your comment haha
Proper rally car....the front end held together with duct tape lol :)
Salut
Très beau véhicule !
Je peux te demander où tu as fait faire les autocollants Martini Racing ?
Merci et salutations
Saw a Montecarlo Turbo up close a few times at the Canepa exhibit. Beautiful car.
So awesome! This makes me want to rally my 83 celica supra.
Glorious.
I got extra front bumper if he wants it
Nice story, nice car, nice video.

I wish I could understand him...still without the words its great....subtitles!..just found them..forehead-slap for me!
I wish lancia was around today! I would so have one if there cars
First! And a Lancia Martini short film no less! Merci!
Lancia needs a proper comeback.
I dont speak french, but i do speak cars. I understand that he is passionate, and has a great example of an awesome rally car. Drive it!!
There are english subtitles on the video, it's my second time watching It because i didn't know It hahahahahha
@@CarlosGarcia-ze6rt, great job Carlos. ...
I JUST saw a Lancia Martini yesterday at the Carmel by the see concours show
The Stratos was awesome
Adoro la lancia beta Montecarlo❤
It's insane to think Fiat wouldn't have a lot of success positioning a revamped Lancia line of cars as an upscale brand for them worldwide.
Gregory Timmons Agree. But they would need to prove the new models in motorsport. They can't just rebadge Alfa Romeo models. Enthusiasts see straight past that.
@@buncho888 new alfa is pretty cool. Its just so expensive it's hard to buy into. The guilia was designed using Ferrari technology.
Lancia would be above Fiat and below Alfa, good name in Europe that could share models to be badged as Dodge in other markets.
@@PiDsPagePrototypes Why would it be below Alfa? Let Alfa Romeo do their sports car thing and Lancia do the Grand touring/Limo. I think thats where their niche was originally and still is today. If the design is right, you don't need 400+ Hp to compete. Just elegance!
@@Heatfarmer .... Because the Lancias always rusted away faster then the Alfa ;)
The car looks like a true rally rood-warrior, honourably scarred.
And when a video on his Celica ? Good job with this Lancia Beta
Love this video! The white balance at 2:35 was a bit iffy though
Really had to find something too complain about huh?
Pre ABS, no doubt! I think we should all chip in to buy him a new front valance :)
Do you take PayPal?
Even braking itself was dangerous. The S1 shown here had front brakes that were eager to lock up so they removed the servo on the S2 😬
One of the best represented Marques on Petrolicious - pity that FIAT seems to not care about Lancia anymore, sad!
What car is that @5:56?
Please may we have the name of the song played... 😃
Was this car the Scorpian in the U.S.?
yes, the Lancia Scorpion was on sale in the States for only two years, 1976-77. Lancia couldn't use Monte Carlo name because Chevrolet was using it at the time, because of federal emissions it only had 81hp (Europe 120hp).

Are you sure that isn’t an AMC AMX from the late ‘60s?
Glad I'm not the only one who sees the resemblance!
amazing quality of car oriented videos but I wish they were in english instead of having to focus on subtitles
Did DeLorean raid the Lancia parts bin for the its tail lights?
No, the Delorean tail lights are pretty nasty!
DeLorean tail lights are unique to the car.
@@dudley7540 how bin ya
I'm so sorry to say this as I've loved your films, but this and the one from Australia are too dense and the music just over crowds. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE your films, but lately.....
But I don't know how it could have been done better!!
The origin of 037
As far as i know Lancia didn't produce any rally versions of the Montecarlo.
That was my first thought, too. There was a Lancia Beta Montecarlo Group 5 track car and the Lancia Rally 037, both using the silhouette of the Beta Montecarlo. But the car which is shown here never raced (in the Martini works team).
They should go back to le mans and WRC
Il bello che questa macchina non se la cagava nessuno prima del terzo film di Herbie lol
Reims looks really beautiful without all the people
05:15...Notre Dame with the roof still intact.
Brings me so much sadness to be reminded of what happened.
Sorry it's the cathedral of Reims, the location for the coronation of the french kings :
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reims_Cathedral
Yay Herbie's girlfriend
What people don't know is Jolly Club had Mafia involvement .
I know people
Seriously?
After a lot of short clips comes a real video (about a very great car) and it is french
That was enough for me as an abbonent
Byby
labertasche00 use subtitles as a lot of people have... The French language is lovely to hear.
How can you have amazeballs stuff like this and at the same time show crap with a Hyundai Velociter?
Looks like a perfect candidate for an 037 conversion.
Needs a voice over dubbed in
"Juliette" dans La Coccinelle à Monte-Carlo
Is pronounced LANCIA not LANSIA. Damn French!
lol, but C and S makes the same "SSS" in French so.... You mean "CHIA" , right?
English subtitles would be nice
There is, you just have to turn them on through RUclips's captioning.
There are captions dude.
Turn ON Captions - English!!
я ни слова не понял, но машина класная
Da comprare, è salita anche di 10 mila euro in 5 anni 😂
Хорошая машина, но все портит этот поганый французский язык
English please 😢
press subs..........
there is subtitles
Why ? Take lessons. It will expand your view of life.
Turn on the captions for YT. Petrolicious went through the whole thing and translated it.
This was all about the story, for me. The car is butt-ugly IMO. Not that there are many beautiful '70s cars, but still.
The Monte Carlo is anything but ugly.
Dork. Clueless dork. 😠
??
@@studiocalder818
Calling this car "butt-ugly" is a sign of having a monocellular mind. Thus,dork.
No cogent appraisal or defence of the design choices, just insults. Yet I'm the deficient one ?! Riiiight ¬.¬ ...
