Doug STILL dresses like a level 1 online GTA character with no apartment.
On god
I play gta online and that was me once
He spends all money on cars, obviously :D
So accurate it hurts
He use cheat codes so a Lancia Delta Integrale will suddenly appear.
Lancia: 11 times world rally champion (6 times in a row). Now, disappeared. Thanks a lot Fiat Group!
I can't believe they actually rebadged a Chrysler as a Lancia and tried to sell it...
they faded ,people stop buying lancia´s ,fiat didn´t stop releasing them and lot´s of people not knowing what they were saying trashed lancia to the point of almost nobody buying them ,i bought a dedra very cheap and drove it for 9 years on the road ,wich never happened before with other car only gasoline and tires nothing else was needed, being a big car was very easy to handle and also very good off road, regards
@@TraustiGeir believe it ,i almost couldn´t believe what i was seeing, regards
Technically, Lancia is still being produced.
The Ypsilon. Can't say I'm impressed...
I think your forgetting that the god of capitalism is the bottom line not meaningless accolades
The wet dream of my teenage nights. I saw one in Vienna recently complete with Martini Racing paint job. I almost cried.
same feeling here
Like the Martini colours a lot though I definitely prefer the Alitalia colours!
@@skylined5534 Alitalia and Lancia: two things that we miss in 🇮🇹
still is my dream :)
This deserves a 9.5 out of 10 for styling. Few car makers make a hatch this fast & fun look so effortlessly sexy.
What about the other .5?
We're in 2019 and this still looks hot as hell and better than most hot hatches.
Stop it... just stop it

The use of the elephant symbol was in recognition of Hannibal using Elephants to traverse the Alps - a feat replicated by Lancia rally cars in the Monte Carlo Rally, the first car to carry the badge was the Fulvia HF
Wow! That's really cool dude. Thanks for the info.
I didnt even doubt that Doug made up some bs story. Thanks for the info man.
@@grtbgf I heard it was a reference or having a dig at Ferrari for being overweight, also Lancia gave Ferrari their Formula One car after their driver died and they withdrew from racing, it was well advanced for it's time, Lancia D50 I think it was called
He also got the High Fidelity meaning wrong: it was an exclusive club of owners who had purchased at least 5 new Lancias, organized by the brand with events, meetings, and of course many advantages for the members. In the early 60s the club members started to race their cars under the club's name until Lancia finally decided to race as well using the HF name as its reparto corse (racing division).
It must be noted that Lancia owners were mostly gentlemen at the time, to the point that Lancia made a small book and some badges called "Lancia chivalry" with a distinguished code of counduct for Lancia drivers on the streets.
hrgiyzueghe Lmao, Doug is just making stuff up. Come on man, hes losing credibility rapidly. Thanks for the info again. What he said made very little sense.
I just realized that Doug reviewed this car at my old school

I’m surprised he’s allowed near them

Keisuke would've hate if Takumi drive this thing because
1: AWD

3: Tune the engine and you have a monster
"war machine" lmao, you won the internet
The lancer won more championships than the wrx
An Audi Quattro would embarrass them all :P
I had the 16 valve (197 HP) version when I was a teenager. Bought for cheap, fixed some things here and there and drove it for 5 years. The driving experience in that thing was amazing. Got pulled over and cops always asked why am I smiling. I always said that the car made me smile.
Not much can upset Driving fun! Lol
A familiar backroad is best to connect driver & machine.
I drove a 2004 Volvo S60R up the eastern US coast mountian back roads. The most fun I've had alone! Luckily & gratefully there is really nowhere speed can be challenged.👍 Just be respectful of wildlife.
(These modern Tesla might tell their drivers what's around the next bend..but it also records evevything done behind the wheel !) I digress.
The Volvo S60R 5L Turbo sounds simply glorious in the woods! As I'm quite sure the Lancia Delta Evo would!
4:19 Veglia-Borletti was an italian factory. with the brand Veglia it produced measurement tools in particular odometers and speedometers. The "vegliaflash" was the name of their digital stopwatch

@@pl2247 assolutamente no! sono stupendi
P L io ero già pronto con le lame aspettando la prima critica, ma gli è andata bene 🤣
Nessuno può criticarla 👍
@Michael Wodyka Veglia provided instruments for most of the italian industry from Ferrari to Piaggio (Vespa). Lamborghini used Jaeger instruments until the diablo I think. Ciao
before some kid says
subie impreza STi: aM I a JOkE To yOu??
yes, you are
Literally my two fav cars, integrale and sti. But yes, i agree. Lancia wins all the time.
They could be worse. It could be a mitsubishi.
I saw 4 evos break at the drag track... in one weekend.... on one day.
@@cavalierliberty6838 i dont preffer one over the other because to me it depends on what model and year it is. but impreza fans are much louder than evo fans
@@freeautoinsurance365 they're both unreliable outside of a rally race. Honda and toyota have them by massive gaps in reliability, and hell, even most american cars best their reliability. I really don't get how mitsubishi is even still a company, they got rid of everything they had worth a fuck.
This is my favorite car in Need For Speed Most Wanted (2012), and now that I've seen what a real one is like, I want one even more. This is pretty much the perfect car in my opinion. Even the interior is great. Those seats are super cool and I like how the interior is just simple like my old 1988 Accord. I aspire to own a yellow Delta Integrale before I die.
I used to think that TT meant TwinTurbo. Since I found Doug's channel I realized it means Two T-shirts.
Why does he even wear two tshirts?
*Top 10 things science can't explain*
He wears 2 shirts because of the mic clipped to his outer shirt. He thinks we don't want to stare down his chest during the inside leaning in portion of the video.
In his mind, it's more professional looking.
its been hot as hell in Baltimore too.
He wears two T-shirts cause he sweats alot
He likes looking like a giant 12 year old.
The “Integrale” badge is in blue & yellow because those are the colours of the city of Turin
Finally someone says it!
I realize it is not straightforward for someone foreign to know that BLUE and YELLOW are the colours of Turin, where Fiat was based and cars were produced, but there you go 😉
The comment deserves a Doug score of at least 7.
ok now why is it inch thick lol
It makes sense though, just like the BMW logo is blue and white to show that it's from Bavaria
I owned this car in Italy when I was 19yo... still in my heart today, the most beautiful and fun car ever!
This car was built to be driven sideways through the Welsh countryside, and on Cypress gravel. This car deserves every bit of it's legendary status. There are always a few for sale online. Thanks.
The tachometer doesn’t spin the opposite direction Doug, it just starts from a different spot on the circle. Makes it easier to see the revs when it’s at the top of the range, as it should be in a proper race/rally car
Doug never disappoints! xD
They could have made a 90 degree tachometer instead a 270 degree.
@@wino0000006 not really. Cramming ~8k rpm in just 90 degrees wouldn't really work.
My uncle's 1985 Ford Escort XR3 Convertible also had a tachometer like this. The top spot was the beggining of the redline, at 5800 rpm.
The designer of the tachometer probably had a math degree...
I'm 41 and this has always been my all time favourite car, and this exact version, in this exact colour. Glorious.
Facts. A guy who lives near me has it in Chiquita Yellow. I swear he only drives it just to annoy me....
@@hitchslap8254 I like your handle hitchslap (Y). And I agree this is one of my favorite cars. I'm an 80's kid as well.

im 37 and that Lancia is in my top 3, with the Opel Calibra, and the VW Corrado
can say the same for me mate im 17 btw
10:03 literally every european hatchback in the 90s and early 2000s was like that.
Literally?
@@carlrygwelski586 yeah pretty much at least as standard
Exactly. My '04 Astra isn't exactly a base model but it's got manual windows in the rear.
Ive never seen Doug smiling so much during a review. My dream car since i was a child. I'n Italy the relative low Km/Miles car in very good shape fetch €100K+. The highest price ever payed was € 252K for a low km/miles (under 6K) car from Japan
The RPM gauge turns the normal way... 0 is just at an odd location
Yes and looks cool!
@@joe125ful Indeed it does! Love everything about this car
Yea he should look at last gen Aston Martins, they had the rev counter go counter clockwise (DB9 era cars, can't remember if generations before did so as well)
The RPM gauge is positioned that way so you could see the revs better and shift gears at the proper rev range. It's just normal feature of this era of rally cars.
@@Real_MisterSir he owned aston martin
Doug: *pronounces correctly "Lancia"
every Italian on youtube: *tear drop 😁
Lancya
For all the times I've heard LANSIA XD
R A I don’t - loser
@R A u just proved how bright are u said all yanks pronounce it wrong on a comment about how doug a "yank" said it correctly
Lan-see-ah sounds better
tyler really got good taste in cars
I really came here after his new song too
Maybe one day, you'll review a Stratos!!
The tachometer still goes clockwise. It just has another starting point.
You're right and it was made like that so when you drive fast the limiter area was directly to your visible area to the center of the cluster! ;)
And other corrections:
HF it´s for "Helefantino Formula" that´s why ther´s an Elefhant.
The pedals are not stock one´s, those are aftermarket and are fixed over the stock rubber ones
The flash light it´s a malfunction, very common on italian brands in the 80´s
The piece around the gear lever it´s a aftermarket piece from Isotta (aftermarket tuning company from italy), not a stock one!
The light at the trunk it´s also aftermarket and probably is connected to the wires of the external back light, that´s why they have to be on. The original Delta doesn´t have a trunk light
The side vent badge is also aftermarket. The stock ones are different.
So...you wait for the perfect example of a Delta Integrale and...you get the wrong one! Lol
@@marcobettencourt861 I dont know where you got "Helefantio Formula" from, but I have heard the story about the charging elephant Doug described many many times before. HF stands for High Fidelity, but it could stand for multiple things? Not quite sure.
@@erty2389 "High Fidelity" is the correct meaning.
"Elefantino" doesn't need the "H" at the beginning in italian and you can't find any information online because it doesn't exist.

As Italian living in Italy, I can only say that this was the dream of ALL young guys of my generation. I'm from 1975 and this was simply the best car out there.

What about the Fiat 500? It was one of the most iconic Italian cars
@@bluruckuscrx8124 which one, the old one produced from 1957 to 1975? We had one (my mother) when I was a child. It was "cute", reliable (the engine was ultra simple) and nothing else :) VERY small (there was even a joke back then: do you know how to fit 4 elephants in a 500? 2 in the front and 2 in the back") very low power (18HP), but light (560kg with all fluids) and very stable even on the snow and easy to drive. It was the equivalent of the "Smart for 2" (but with 4 seats) back in the sixties and it was a typical female car. Not a car anyone, apart young girls/ladies, would fancy. The fancy ones in the 60/70s were Alfa Romeo (like the small but powerful 1300 Junior) or, staying in the Fiat area, the Fiat Dino 2400cc or, to keep it small, the Fiat 600 Abarth or the Ritmo Abarth in the 80s
@@AlessandroGenTLe the old one of course.
Hi from Italy Doug, this is an iconic car for many people in Italy. Thank You for your nice video. An Italian boy ( i was 26 years old in 1993)
In 1993 I was 17 & I had a 76 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme that I paid $300 for. I bought my 1st car when I was 14 for $25, but didn't get my driver's license till I was 26. Haha, sorry but I got a bit nostalgic writing this.
@Kratom Reviewer around $120
@Nathan Tankersley and you are young...ha, ha and HA! you are old one ;)
I was born in 1993 now I'm 25 😞
I drove the earlier version of this back in the late eighties and it gave me a real kick to see Doug,s face light up when he drove it . Love Doug,s reviews as he picks up on things that most reviewers miss and his in depth knowledge is always interesting . Top job Doug .
Car reviews on UA-cam are ten a penny, but what makes your vids so great, to me at least, is the quirks and features section. Generally all cars are built to serve pretty much the same function, but its the different approaches and details that manufactures put into their cars that fascinate me. Its what gives each car its own character. I adore the super exotics, but Im just as enthusic about the more everyday cars too, for all their individuality and mad little 'quirks'.
Keep up the good work!
It’s quite normal to have manual windows in the backseat of cheaper cars until mid 2000.
At least here in Europe..
This was not a cheap car by any mean..but yea was extremely common. The porsche 924 came whit manual windows and was not cheap either
My 2001 vectra olso had manual windows at the back
My gf's 2013 (!) Fiat has manual windows in the back. It's not really big deal though, you barely need them and the rear passengers can crank for themselves for all I care. Still looks cheap though.
Yeah i was about to come post the same thing. Really common for cars of that period to have only power windows at the front.
He says shit like this all the time
Every Italian viewer is going nuts! Ferrari, Lamborghini... ok, we all love our sport cars, but for a certain generation of Italians, THIS is the dream car.
He pronounced ‘Lancia’ properly too!
The Martini 🤤🤤🤤
For a certain generation? EVERY generation of Italian petrolheads dreams about this
@@Anankin12 right im italian,👍
Perché parlate in inglese fra voi se siete italiani?😂
I love how you keep saying "ask the passenger nicely". Drivers should never forget their place in the food chain! :)
True italian legend. Thank you Doug for driving and testing this amazing hot-hatch for us!
Don’t deny.
This car was legendary in EVERY video game it was featured in.
You can’t call yourself a car enthusiast if you don’t have the slightest ounce of respect for this car.
GT5, GT6, and GT Sport. I own it in all of those because it's so cool XD
PGR2 (Project Gotham Racing 2) back on the original Xbox in 2002
I still drive it on my 360
"SEGA Rally Championship" I can still hear it, with air hockey sounds and the aroma of French fries in the background.
Yeah delta was basically my go to in gt2 when I wanted to mess around in rally races
2 eletric front windows and 2 manual back windows was very common in Europe in the 90
Its still common in Europe in new cars.
Jehowy666 Obviously.
@@Jehowy666 Only on the cheapest cars.
It's still common not because it's in cheap car but because electronic rear windows are an extra paid option. You could choose leather seats and manual rear windows :)))
Electric windows are probably an option on a Porsche :P
I have the same car that i bought from an older gentleman while i lived in Luxembourg, and brought it with me to New York once i moved back home, as we speak the car has around 63.000 km and it also has NY plates but i only have it in the back that says LA REGINA, in the front i left the Luxembourgish plate, i love this car and actually grew up with italian cars in the family from Lancia super thema, Alfa romeo 164, Lancia kappa, Fiat tipo and yes we also had a 1985 mercedes 300D turbo 5 speed, those were real cars from back in the days.
You legend
Incredible, this car is like brand new! Congratulations!
Lancia is a brand which defeated the All wheel drive Audi quattros with their two wheel drives even in icy conditions. They sure are legends
@@tsu177 You're thinking of Morris Marinas
ReL Corsa and Jeremy Clarkson
Yeah, such a shame they suck ass now.
Yes,poor AWD cars:)
And in group B they made Audi cry by making even better AWD cars same with Peugeot and Ford lmao
For italian guys born in the sixties and seventies this car is a icon, more than a Ferrari or Lamborghini.
Don't overdo it.
I was born in 93, and this is my all time favourite car! :D Give me 100k€ and I'll go and buy a delta HF integrale , evo 2 or Martini edition :D
Ah nope, this is nothing compared to ferrari or Lamborghini
Greeks too, love my old Lancia
@@lucastekkan Nobody said it looks better althouh it does in my opinion and also race this against any supercar in dirt🤣
This video has a soft place in my heart the first Doug video I ever saw
Imagine I once saw this parked in a garage in Madison Wisconsin. I literally was gonna ask the owner if I could just have look inside.
This is great, more 80’s/90’s cars like this please Doug, can you try find an Escort RS Cosworth to review?
And an Audi Quattro.
I can guarantee you it's got a very distinct smell
And a Sierra.
The escort cossworth gen I, that is the sweet spot... I have seen those taking in acceleration easily the m3 e36 with 321cvs cause those first escorts cossie had over boost and over 280cvs...
There’s one in Portland
Doug must now review a Stratos , Delta S4 and a 037 Stradale if he can find any would be an amazing review for sure.
Let him not drive a Stratos. He's a bit too young to die
NOTO RIOUS I’ve been waiting for years for Doug to review those cars. I can’t wait!
G Baking Doug wont fit inside the Stratos.
Luciano Matias that’ll be the fun part of him trying to shoe-horn himself in a stratos
Literally only clicked on this video to tell him he needs to find an 037.
I know, it's the nerd in me talking but... HF stands for High Fidelity, a Lancia owners club run by the factory back in the 60s. You needed to have purchased at least 6 Lancias (later was 10) to get an emblem from the factory (with a star for each Lancia you had), then overtime it was used in the Lancia Fulvia and became a symbol of Lancia's most sporting models. An about the elephants, Gianni Lancia chose an elephant as a good luck token for their first competition cars because in Eastern mythology a running elephant (with its tusks up) signifies 'victory'...
Doug, I am seeing you after 4 years and questioning myself why didn't I get back to you all these years. What a fantastic video!!! Love...
Dude this just taught me how to fold my Lancia Delta HF Turbo's seats, thanks Doug.
Same ahahah ahahah
hahahaah
aH Ha Ah hA hEE
*HAAHA HA AHA AHA EEHA*
Do you really have Lancia Delta?
Doug... HF means high fidelity, but it's, since the 60s, the name of Lancia owners club. That has an Elephant as symbol and blue and yellow as colours. That's why the badge HF has an elephant and the "integrale" badge is in blue and yellow. Just take a look at the Fulvia HF. Oh, and the tach is spinning clockwise and it's upside down because in racing you need to see the top part of the rev range. Bye!!
On point Nicola, ottimo
@NASA F When UA-camrs get this big they don't bother responding to comments much less read them.
I am of the lucky guys that have seen, film and hear them in Acropolis Rally in Greece. What a legend. You didn't expect a car almost 30 years old behave like this eh? You didn't have to buy the 16V evo version either, older 8V was also fun at a more afordable price
Interesting fact: The wings on WRC cars and homologation cars such as this, has nothing to do with downforce. It's actually there to prevent the car nose diving over jumps. Of course it produces downforce as a side effect but that isn't its purpose.
Full Alcantara interior, Doug says: "Lancia was so cheap...."
Ferrari had manual windows too, it's weight saving not being cheap.
hrgiyzueghe back in the days, people didn’t need “gadgets” to appreciate a good car. Nowadays, if it doesn’t have 11 ways adjustable Bluetooth connected refrigerated led armrests, it’s “poorly equipped”
Yes but if it was to save weight, I think the point he was trying to make is, instead of doing it on just two doors, why not all 4?
@Carlos Diaz I’m italian and my father bought a new 1990 Fiat Tempra wagon. Top trim, a fully loaded (for the time) family car, and it had power windows in the front and manual in the back. We were just “discovering” the power assistance on everything, especially low price range cars like Fiats. The point is, in the front there’s always somebody, in the back just the children, sometimes. They don’t need luxury :)
It also also the norm in Europe at the time. In European reviews of the era it was common for people to specify whether or not electric windows were fitted to both or front and rear, front only or not at all. Hatches in Europe were (and are) family vehicles, so it was generally regarded that the back seats are for kids, with the parents up front, so the back usually did get less creature comforts (and less stuff for the kids to play with / break). Personally also I don't see the point. Front electrics are for the driver to be able to lower the passenger window from their seat to be able to see clearly if the window has rain or frost on it, and to be able to put their own down in one quick press to pay for parking / tolls / drive-thru etc.
also cheap
Guy almost dies of excitement driving the car, screaming how fun it is, then gives it 7/10 for fun factor. Mysteries of the Doug Score....
😂😂😂
Classic Cars 3D Yeah, and how many times did he say “perfect”.
It's perfect _for a 1980s Italian hot hatch._
Doesn't matter how good it is, it can't beat, eg., a modern supercar.
The DougScore attempts to encompass the entire car industry, so, 7/10 makes sense to me.
You gotta remember it’s competing with cars like the laferrari and Bugattis
@@Jesse__H Fun is a subjective concept and it's not at all obvious that a modern supercar has to be more fun. If it was obvious, you wouldn't need to drive it, but you'd just look at the stats. He didn't say it was fun for a 1980s hatch, he said it was the greatest hot hatch ever, and his driving experience confirmed it, so it males no sense to me to say it's less fum because it's older. It's like leaving the cinema and being totally impressed by a classic movie but then giving it a lower score because it "can't compete with modern blockbusters" (the effects, the picture quality etc).
I had an HF turbo in the 90s, couldn't afford an integrale. It was more at the mechanic guy then on the road but I still loved it. It's 30 years picture still on my fridegerator door today
6:49 That's why I watch Doug DeMuro, he points out good design features. And he gets so enthusiastic driving a car he likes!
Who remembers "Sega Rally" at the arcades in the early to mid 90s?

I was going to say you're being harsh but true... but you're just being extremely honest and accurate 😂
@Peter Mertes ?
@Peter Mertes i think a score isn't based off of who you are, i think it's based off of what's good or bad
I had a red Peugeot 205 1.9 GTI with the half leather interior. For me that was the best looking hot hatch of the era, but the Lancia was and still is a great looking car. It’s a shame the ‘Pug’ wasn’t sold in the US, you guys really missed out on a classic. From Lindon, UK.
One of my DREAM cars.
Thanks for sharing
Loves that car in the 90s... it didn't get more cooler than this for that money. Oh, and the trunk is extra small because of the 4WD. Every inch of that car was used after so many upgrades. I even remember the bonnet had a "bump" to accomodate the 16v engine.
Crank windows in the back is still relatively common for a decent amount of new hatchbacks in europe.
Top Throttle opel corsa still have it. I cant believe they can still sell that car.
Very common on a lot of Euro cars. Lots of Mercedes have this feature.
My fairly optioned Avensis had manual rears .. yes I agree it's normal here
Lada granta still have those 😅
Skoda fabia has this
That spoiler is set to "maximum fuel consumption", haha
What's even the point to put it in that position? It's completely vertical, at this point it's basically an air brake !
@@lptomtom I believe it acts as a Gurney flap, preventing the airflow from sticking to the back of the car, what would create drag and some lift.

Dude - THANK YOU. This is one of the greatest cars you ever reviewed. Lancias of the 80s and early 90s are friggin' legendary.
I used to have a 1992 Fiat Tempra and was immensely proud of the fact that it shared its fog lights with this rally legend.
We had a 1997 Fiat Tempra. It had "basically" this Lancia's engine. The 2-liter version of the Fiat Twin Cam. Although our car was natural aspirated and had eight valves.
@@PhiZelak Nope Lancia have a Fiat engine only with turbo
I also once owned a Tempra,
it didn't have foglights.....🤐
@@PhiZelak Mine was a puny 1.6 8V but over here we also had the 2.0 8V and 16V variants. Neither were terribly efficient and hardly made the factory power figure but holy moly that 16V had a sweet engine sound.
Tipo was basically Tempra hatchback, did it also have these fog lights?
I had a regular Lancia Delta, and it was great.
Of course I love the Integrale (and the HF) - but I'm not into cars and I never dreamed of having one.
Still lovely to see it featured here, good job 👍
Doug really had fun with this one
"kinda a weird decision", the history of Lancia in one sentence.
The history of the entire Italian car industry.
@@Zero_Ninety the history of the whole country of italy
“This car has the best handling and steering feel I have ever felt in my life. Bar none. Handling and fun factor are okay, I’ll give it a seven.”
True 😂😂
Yup, make some dude, seriously sheesh
What can you expect from someone who has driven Bugattis, Paganis and Koenigseggs.
@@nakoma5 and he owns a Ford GT.
He also gave only 5 for it’s acceleration.
I find it a bit slow considering, for example, that he gave 7 to the Ford Focus rs...a modern car with over 100hp more than the hf.
Anyway I doubt the Focus Rs would do so much better than 5.5 seconds
In 1997 a work colleague had an exact one in red also, handling was magnificent, it can spin on a penny, hand brake turns, clutch, gearing..... acceleration, my goodness!!! Not forgetting 4 wheel drive for grip and all types of surfaces.... Wonderful Package Braviiiiisssssiiiiiimmmmmooooo!!!!!
WANT!! What a badass looking ride
Finaly 90s European hot hatch, there was a lot of great hot hatches back than (VW Golf GTI, Opel Kadett GSi, Peugeot 205 GTI, Renault Clio Williams...)
Audi Coupe Quattro and S2 as well.
Dont forget the Fiat Uno Turbo.
Renault Clio V6, Renault R5 Turbo 2., peugeot 205 turbo16, Fiat Ritmo Abarth.
Ford Fiesta rs turbo
Ford escort rs turbo
And of course 2 door sierra cosworth
@@roostaraver Ford Escort Cosworth.
In Italy it was often called "Deltone" (Big Delta). No need to explain why! I always loved this car.
The Big D
Diobo che storia il deltone, era la macchina prediletta per le fughe dagli sbirri assieme all’alfitone
Great video Doug!
One of the great cars of the 80’s and 90’s hot hatch era. I owned a Peugeot 205 1.9 GTI in red with the half leather interior, a beautiful car and I am hoping Doug is able to review it one day, the Lancia was always on my wish list, but there just weren’t many around in the UK and as a student then probably out of my price range. The insurance for even my Peugeot was far more than what I paid for the car and like many other owners I ended up righting it off.
The Tach is still spinning clock wise Doug... like every other car... it’s not an Aston Martin
Nor a Peugeot 308 btw
@@zoufmalade lol, I have one of those.👍
Doug is a bit silly sometimes...
And no mention of the turbo boost gauge being in the middle.
It does start at a really odd point though.
In Italy It catches more attention than a Ferrari
Beh,non esageriamo... Attira l'attenzione si,ma di gente che ci capisce qualcosa di auto,per la maggior parte delle persone risulta solo "una vecchia lancia truccata" Ferrari resta Ferrari.
*FRACHESCO VIRGULINNI* has left the chat
In any country I believe.
But i heard in italy you have weird tax system based on horsepower right? How does that work with a Tesla? Because it has so much horsepower it gets taxed alot?
@@HermanWillems in Italy you pay a supertax if the car produces more than 252hp
So if a 252hp car costs 500 euros per year, a 300hp Will cost you like 1500 euros a year, ti which you have to add the warrenty
Still this tax is reduced or eliminated for Electric/Hybrid cars and older cars
FUN FACT: Veglia is the name of an Italian clock maker. thanks for the vids, Doug!
Doug, it was really very standard for European cars up to the late 90s- mid-2000s to have hand-cranking windows at the back and electric up front - even my dad's 1988 W124 Mercedes-Benz 260E had wood trim, leather, aircon, electric sunroof... and manual rear windows!
Italian Masterpiece
As an Italian I was waiting for this video since I follow you! Thank you Doug!
Edoardo Corona già anche io ,sono passati più di 2 mesi da quando ha annunciato il video su instagram e finalmente si è deciso
Reminds me of Massimo 'Miki' Biasion. This car takes me back
Well, TBH, having owned and driven 2 of these, it doesn't need a single horsepower more, it just needs gear shifting skills. I don't know how to translate that, but this car calls for the driver to have knowledge and mastery of "double shifting" and "round shifting", or RPM shifting, helped with things such as "heal-toe shifting".
1:58
"Consider the fact this car weight only 2900 pounds"
*considering in European*
About 1300kgs. More than I expected honestly
It's heavy for such a car, without modern safety feature, gadget and equipment.
I just searched and de HF Turbo, 1.6 litre 140hp euro spec was around 1020 kg.
@@plakclub I don't believe it weighs that much. That's a full sized modern sedan weight.
svetko05 he converted correctly. I don’t know if you mean Doug is wrong or the guy you’re replying to
I’m an italian follower, i love you so much for this Doug!
Francesco Maria Falini I'm from the USA n I was jumping up and down. I'll be screaming "Yea" when I see. 599 GTO
Can I call you Maria?
Angel Arroyo Probably his school mates did that too, so no worries 😉
Angel Arroyo actually you can, but only by night....
@Amine davvero cazzo!
This car is the perfect blend of on road unassuming practicality and rally performance. The best part is its all mechanical. You feel everything. The design is aggressive but simultaneously subtle. I love it
Hey Doug! About the window cranks, I can add an addition to cars that have manual window cranks in the rear seats. The Opel Zafira. My family has had ours ever since 2006:)
This car is BEAUTIFUL. Lancia has the most amazing rally history too. Really too bad they are barely doing anything now after decades of amazing innovations and WRC wins.
You need to watch " the real reason Lancia left rallying".Fiat could not support 3 luxury marques with a race history other than themselves,so guess what?
@@simonalexandercritchley439 pretty sad how big companies buy out unique brands, normalize their products, then kill them off. Though I acknowledge that in several cases the brand would die out on its own, too.
Group B is over.
No more time to make something great.
Now are just the kids that wants to race in rally. Let them have their fun.
"The feeling of the steering is PERFECT, JUST PERFECT!"
"Handling gets a 7 out of 10..."
Uhhhhhhhhh...
Steering feel is just one part of the handling. Grip, balance, adjustability, predictability all come into play.
@@jochem1986 All of those things together make the experience of a vehicle's steering tho. Not the first time 2 opposing statements are made in these videos.
Sunnewer Toolow 7 out of 10 is actually a really good score if you take into account that he is comparing it to million dollar exotics
Emperor Gad exactly. A ten would be like a formula 1 car or something, just absolutely perfect.
@@Mr.Marbles Well he said it's perfect. And even so, in the case of a Formula 1 car it wouldn't feel perfect on a public road because those cars are not made for public roads.
Which implies that the entire scale of 1 to 10 for these scorings is flawed and getting a 10/10 is impossible. Doug does a good job obviously but he's very inconsistent on important details, kinda rendering the list pointless.
I wish cars got made that still looked like this. Favorite styling.
I loved the Lancia Delta. You have no idea how great it is till you drive in the Italian mountains at speed. I loved racing against this and others on the weekends. I usually drove an Alfa Gt 1600. It was not uncommon doing 100 mph on the mountains and slide them in the corners.
in italy we call this car "La Regina" ("The Queen")
Davide Cironi's video on Lancia Delta is pure porn
What a great name!
or more friendly, "Il deltone" (the big delta, the top tier one)
We call it "Deltone". Meaning "big delta"
It's definetly a bloke love haha.
Doug is the type of guy who can pronounce Lancia but not Peugeot.
How do you even pronounce “Peugeot” with a French accent?? I know the way Doug did it, and the British way cuz of top gear, but I’ve never heard a Frenchman say “Peugeot”
and when he says:" coupé" ? ahahahahahhahahah
@@Jaymac720 ITS POYGOAT
I've heard poh-zho pew-zho I have no idea how to actually say it
@@Jaymac720 It spelled pe-joe
I’m the guy that lovingly washed the RS2 you recently purchased up here in Canada. I actually just performed a nice wash of an HF Integrale as well.
My GOD! Goosebumps! What a gorgeous car. And yes, you let the right one in.
