- My annual Harry's Garage round-up. What I spent on the Countach & Testarossa refresh, Jaguar XJC V12 injector issues and all the other costs needed to keep my collection of 22 cars and 15 bikes in tip-top condition.

Harry is singlehandedly keeping the British Car Maintenance Industry in business.
The Testarossa bodywork at Prestige is an absolute bargain considering how good it looks.
Amazing job by the guys at prestige. One of my favourite vids from the year.
It is hard to believe all that work wasn’t twice the price!
Even that's an understatement. The work easily demanded twice or thrice that!
Agreed. They did a great job for that
@@richardcarter1000 I hope they get many interested clients out of it - I would
No bragging, not flaunting....just what he did and what he spent. We all know Harry is wealthy and he doesn't make it a thing, that's one of his best qualities. Some say British auto journalists are snobs...never got that from Harry at all. Great episode!
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT HONESTY. Honesty, Generosity, Enthusiasm. One Englishman. Harry Metcalfe Bravo! Well Done, That Chap!
Thanks for giving us a detailed reality check on owning these machines Harry. Happy new year and to many more of these videos!
Ah Harry, still living the dream. Lovely stuff. I hope everyone has a happy, healthy and prosperous new year!
I had to watch that opening of the testarossa about 10 times before reaching Harry's round up. What a peachy sound.
Hey Harry, since all your material desires have already been fulfilled, I wish you and your family good health to enjoy your toys in the coming year. Greetings from Croatia
Probably the fittest Countach and the fittest Testarossa but certainly the fittest, most sorted and useable XJC! What a beauty!👍👍 Quite a stable there and all well maintained and ready to use at a moments notice which is nice to see.😀👍
Maybe the only fit, sorted and usable xjc v12 manual😂
Thanks Harry for another interesting, transparent insight!
People pay £7000 to insure just one Range Rover in London…
I’m astonished how fair that insurance cost seemed to be.
Fascinating to understand the costs involved in running a fleet like this. I recently added up all the bills for my old 911, £30000 in maintenance over 120k miles since it was new in 2004. Almost the same as the fuel bills!
I've had 2 Mondeo Mk3 diesels, bought them for 70k mls each at £4k...took them to 440k each...just a clutch each...exhaust bk box and my own oil changes....bargain for me....poor engineering/build on these cars
£1,500 a year for what seems to be a car that is driven to be enjoyed as well as a daily driver seems like good value. I’m sure that others would baulk at the cost but we all need an outlet/hobby-some of which cost considerably more.
That sound pretty cheap per mile.
@@RobertRedford77 im curious - you bought at 70 K miles for 4K GBP? Thats good going mate.
@@lachlanbrown409 Base LX models. Just needed a 6spd box and a heated windscreen. Ford parts were cheap.
Pretty ballsy of you to talk about the nitty-gritty of specialty car ownership. This openness makes your postings so valuable and relevant. Thank you. You're a real person!
Testarossa seems the sweet spot between outlay and reward to me, great to see it looking and sounding so sharp and tidy now. Unreal cost on the Countach which makes me think there can only be a handful in the world running and riding as well at that one now…
Every time that I see Harry's lovely Silver Shadow, I swear that I want to get out the Tools, and re-align that front Chrome Bumper, the part that wraps around the offside Wing. The Arctic trip was something very special (to me), and exceeds almost every other adventure. For an Ebay Buy, it's an exceptional vehicle, and so glad that Harry loves it too!
2000 miles on the zagato must've been a joy! Light and agile car with that screaming engine, perfect for ripping through B roads. Looking forward for the F50 video and the german trip, wish you a good year 2024 Harry!
Bargain on your insurance.
I find Footman James a joy to deal with insuring my four classic bikes.😊
Thanks for another great year Harry!
Imagine flicking the lights on and walking into that garage in the morning.
Chair, cup of tea. Day done.

Great video Harry thanks for sharing all your content throughout the year. All the best to you and your family for 2024.
I always look forward to these videos. Very interesting to see all the costs. Thank you!
The Rolls is fine as is, Harry. Get that bigger engine if it comes to it, but some smoke out the back of a Silver Shadow just adds a bit of character!
Absolutely love the restoration videos! Watch everything to the end. Thank you for all the videos in 2023 Harry and team 🙌🏻
Money well spent, love that you’re able to keep these classic beauties alive and kicking 👌❤️
Very interesting and informative. Keep the videos coming.
Awesome selection and no half measures. Top work Harry

Well done Aitch, for having the bollocks to take all these costs on for such amazing results! Happy New Year to you and yours!
Every garage needs a hooptie and the Rolls is yours. Don't change a thing on it. Just keep driving it like it is.
Money well spent. Super collection.
