Proof that a car collection speaks for itself regardless of the surroundings. One of my favourite collections I've seen on the channel. Another gem of a video from Jonny!
@@TheLateBrakeShow could you drop me a message, the 205 GTI in this video was my Dads, he bought it brand new and the lady Mark talks about was the second owner. I’ve been looking for this car!!
What an amazing collection of special cars. The final three - Lancia, Fiat, Lancia - are in my dreams. And credit to Mark for being so gracious to name-check people who have helped in restoration and maintenance. Some of these are truly a group effort, I imagine. One of your best videos, Jonny, thank you.
I live in the USA and hardly anyone here knows what a Lancia is, let alone a Delta. I saw one once and I was with my girlfriend and some friends and I became ecstatic, pointing and yelling. They didn't even understand. I'd truly love to have a 037 Stradale or a Stratos, but a Delta would do just as well :) Also, I'm not a huge VW fan, but the Corrado has always been my favorite. VR6 in paticular.
Sweet video, stunning collection. Mark was as wonderful to listen to as it was to see his beautiful wheels. Hats off to you sir. The Late Brake Show is taking over with "can't miss" amazingly unique content.
You got to drive the Lancia Beta🙏 rare as hens teeth, this gentleman has got every car in his collection that i either had one in my early days or dreamed of having one, the Beta Volumex was always top of my wish list, what a superb collection 👏
That 130TC Abarth 😍😍 My dad had a B reg strada 85 super and I LOVED it. A 130TC is like unicorn car for me now... weirdly if I came into money this would be the car I'd want, not some crazy supercar.
Great chat , great collection, great bloke . Nice to see he actually uses the cars regularly and that aren't just museum pieces, and he's doesn't seem that arsed about them being pristine 24/7 which I think is what it's all about . Love it . 👊
What an awesome collection! Since Harry Metcalfe already did a great review on the Beta and there is well enough on Integrales on youtube, my vote is for the 130 TC!
My pick also, you see stuff on all the others regularly but a Strada Abarth 130 is a rare animal. I bet it sounds great snorting through them twin carbs
Certainly not the quickest car in his collection, but I love that Italia 90 Panda. Great little touches with the football alloys, wonderful cushions on the back seats, etc
My vote is for the 130TC - I test drove one of those in my youth here in NZ and was totally blown away by it's performance and road holding. I would be interested In Jonny's opinion of one now.
@@dominicwood3750 Faster than the 8v but not the 16v, My mate had the 130TC and I had the MK2 GTI 16v. I loved those days, glad I kept my yellow Corrado G60 Lol....
One of the best collections I’ve ever seen. Sold my 130TC a few years ago and wish I’d been able to keep it - with that in mind Jonny you should definitely drive the Strada…👍🏻
From Italy 🇮🇹 Congratulations! I hope to see in the future same Alfa Romeo in your collection! Beautiful! The Delta for us is the Queen so I'm so happy to see again in your collection too!
Great Car Cave episode...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 What a great collection, I'd happily have or drive any. Hats off Mark for the collection and for keeping them turn key ready. It's got to be the Evo 2 and The Clio Williams 2 at the top of the Jonny must drive list...🥳🥳
Personally I would like to see you drive the Lancia Beta, it looks cool and very rare. I think I’ve seen reviews on most the others. What a superb collection!
Best Collection so far! I dreamed of owning a Williams....probably a blessing I didn't get one, I blew the Gearbox up on my 16V Clio in 2003, I was racing a Saxo VTS on the M54 😅. I couldn't afford to fix it!
I think this is one of the best car cave videos so far. Great guy and fabulous collection so much closer to the sort of thing I would aspire to than some. Either or both Lancia would be on my drive list!
Another brilliant episode ! I’ve always loved the 130tc , I remember it featured in a hot hatch test in Fast Lane magazine . I liked the fact it still had twin carbs rather than injection , they sounded superb . Drive the Strada !
What a great video Johnny! My favourite car of all these is the hotrod-GTI Ritmo/Strada 130TC… Actually never seen a driving review ever! I vote for that. 😊
What a great collection, so refreshing to see an owner who keeps all his cars running and registered, not covered in dirt with flat tires and batteries . My vote is for the Lancia Stratton :)
You've got to drive the Ritmo/Strada Abarth, better than the Mk1 Golf GTi. Very torquey, equal lenth driveshafts and independen rear suspension (struts and a transverse leafspring with huge droop travel). There were at one stage plans for a 170TC with the Abarth 16 Valve head.
What a great guy and what a collection. Mark could probably afford a couple of supercars - I know the GT4 is borderline that - but instead he has a THE dream, a 20 odd car garage and what a great taste. You cannot go wrong with 80 and 90s people's heroes cars, particularly the Italian and French metal. He just needs an Alfa there. By the way Johnny, drive the Corrado or the Beta VX 😎
Johnny, drive the Evo2. Hope that's what you wanted us to say, bucket list car and all that.... Love the channel, thank you for the programmes which I for one look forward to seeing. All the best.
What a wonderful and diverse collection. I’d love to see you drive the Beta. They are quite rare over here, especially as anything other than rust buckets, but I’ve long had a soft spot for them 😊
Awesome collection, not sure about a few “style” things like hella covers on a corrado🤮🤦🏼♂️ And all wind sh1t deflectors on windows should be in the bin as they’re fecking pointless as serve no purpose and look gash, seriously a window is just open and you get a draft…. That’s the point or it’s shut🤷♂️🤦🏼♂️😂, but that’s purely my view, BUT as I said loving his collection!👌🏻 To drive any of them is easy, as it would be the square boxed yellow thing as it’s the best, even over a GT4 and my 911 has the same engine…. Love it but I’ve driven the older Italian and I still prefer older cars even though they’re flawed and sometimes sh1t compared to newer cars, it’s about how it makes you feel from the seat of your pants! Going for a max run on the autobahn wasn’t hard in my beetle, yeah moves about a bit but my RS at 144….my bum was gulping! (Also pissed my mate off with a Cosworth as he only got 142!🤷♂️🤣) Top work as always Jonny👍🏻😉
BEST ONE SO FAR! Please drive the GT4 - you've done the 718 but the 981 is WAY better (I'm a 981 GT4 owner and would love to see your reaction to how visceral the car is, especially the sound). Also please drive the Clio WIlliams and the Lancia Beta Stratton. Please, and thank you.
Jonny, don’t drive the grale, you might not be able to give it back! You’ve got to take that Sisley up a very steep hill, followed by the Scooby. Then a French triple with the 5 turbo, 205 and Williams. I have so much want for that Williams (despite having a grale for years). Finally, the Strada and that fantastic Stratton volumex. A long list, but I know you can make it happen
Fantastic collection!!! Saw that Subaru at the Silverstone Classic Auctiones so it's great to see where it ended up. I think Johnny should return to drive the Lancia Integrale.
What a great mix of cars. I honestly couldn't make a suggestion of which to drive, there are too many good cars to chose from for so many different reasons. Whichever it is I am sure it will be another great video.
Choose the Lancia Beta coupe Volumex for a test drive, so rare, being able to test drive it once in my mechanics time long ago, still stands out to me as a great experience. This collection is close to what my collection would look like.
Something 'bout those Lancia's, there not beutiful, but they're awesome, shame that would never "fly" in southeastern US (pun intended) (try restoring anything from the 80's now, besides a Chevy pick up, I unfortunately have) lmao :D
Had a Beta Coupe, Abarth 130TC, Delta HF Turbo in my 20s all great fun but tbh were pretty tired when I bought them at 3 or 4 years old. These cars are in truely amazing condition, great video apart from no driving
I love this collection! Just shows you can have a collection of interesting, super rare, beautiful to drive and look at cars without spending over 100k per piece! I love these kind of things...
Wow, what a collection. My top three, in no particular order, the Clio, the 205 & the Delta. My bet is that you will go back & drive the Delta or the Beta. Interesting there were no Fords, I was expecting a cheeky Fiesta XR2i perched in the corner....
Great stuff Mark and what a collection. I may be biased though because I was born in Nott'm. 68 years ago. The best bit is that , yes, he's got a GT4 Cayman but, his obvious passion is the rest of the collection.
Nice variety in this collection. In my view (full disclosure, I am a Mercede-Benz owner-driver), he could sprinkle in a few Mercedes-Benzes for a better balance.
We had a B reg Strada - just a 60CL, but the same front as that Abarth. It wasn't the most reliable but the seats were incredibly comfortable. We scrapped it in the late 90s as it rusted badly. The Strada was the first robot-produced car in Italy and caused a lot of strikes in Fiat!
Bodders, this is a brilliantly filmed piece and the location only adds to the drama in my view. I know you love your cars and driving them even more, so this film really captures your true passion! Proud of you!
My favourite car cave to date, great episode, seeing all the cars I wanted in my youth. My favourite, the Strada, I really wanted one of those in 1984 but needed the money to buy a house. My choice of your drive, either of the Lancia's or the Strada.
What a wonderful collection of cars!! Perhaps Mark could merge the barns and make them into a Harry Metcalfe spec Barn. The French/ Italian cars would much appreciate it!! Ps I concur with Mark the Williams Clio is a special drive, especially on some Welsh Roads!!
This is a real car collection. Proper cars from the era when things weren't always the best in build quality but they were built with one thing in mind. Fabulous collection. As for which to drive, any of them coz they are all good.
What a great collection of motors nothing too over the top just plenty of extremely good cars, Copper with cost of some of the cars what was he a chief inspector or higher , Johnny you have to drive the intergrale in Yellow it looks fabulous .Once again fantastic collection.
On a power to weight ratios, this collection would be hard to beat. Which one is a difficult one but I would try the 4x4 Panda, the Delta will probably win.
Excellent video and collection. I'm really torn but my vote is for the Clio Williams. There was one local when I was at college I used to see knocking about and always fancied one.
Fantastic edition. Those cars bring back so many memories, some cars I've had some I wanted and still do. The man has great taste. The Beta is stunning, my cousin had the integrale so i know them well. Would love to drive the Beta
My Dad's friend had a Strada Abath in the 80s took me and him for a drive in it and was impressed as he threw it around at great speed. Drive the Subaru and the clio
I love the Lampredi engines, from the one in the 128 through to the 130 Coupe, and in the middle were those of the Mirafiore, Strada and Delta Integrale. The Delta HF and HF ie also need a mention.
Great video Jonny and thanks to Mark for sharing his fantastic collection... I know Rob at the wheel refurb place, he's a top bloke too. I'd want to see if there'd much difference between the Williams and the R5 Raider.
Fantastic! One of the best yet. Interesting cars at bought at real world prices, so much more enjoyable than a collection of unobtanium that mere mortals are unlikely to ever experience or own. More please!
Proof that a car collection speaks for itself regardless of the surroundings. One of my favourite collections I've seen on the channel. Another gem of a video from Jonny!
Many thanks Gavin. As you say, Mark has picked some excellent cars to live with. Even the pigeons can't detract from the car's beauty.
Agree with Gavin, a great collection and Johnny walks us through it brilliantly
@@TheLateBrakeShow could you drop me a message, the 205 GTI in this video was my Dads, he bought it brand new and the lady Mark talks about was the second owner. I’ve been looking for this car!!
I’d have every single car😍😍😍
What an amazing collection of special cars. The final three - Lancia, Fiat, Lancia - are in my dreams. And credit to Mark for being so gracious to name-check people who have helped in restoration and maintenance. Some of these are truly a group effort, I imagine. One of your best videos, Jonny, thank you.
As soon as you see a Delta in the collection you know its going to be great 👍
Oh Yes.!
I live in the USA and hardly anyone here knows what a Lancia is, let alone a Delta. I saw one once and I was with my girlfriend and some friends and I became ecstatic, pointing and yelling. They didn't even understand.
I'd truly love to have a 037 Stradale or a Stratos, but a Delta would do just as well :)
Also, I'm not a huge VW fan, but the Corrado has always been my favorite. VR6 in paticular.
Mark seems a very knowledgable and down to earth bloke. A great collection. Thanks Jonny!
I love the fact he gave that woman well over double more than the asking price for that 205 GTi. That says a lot
What a great collection and what a guy. So enthusiastic and willing to talk openly about this cars and the story behind them. 👏🏻
Sweet video, stunning collection. Mark was as wonderful to listen to as it was to see his beautiful wheels. Hats off to you sir. The Late Brake Show is taking over with "can't miss" amazingly unique content.

I own a Beta VX in silver 😉

@@paulbeecham8313 thanx, it's really a amazing to drive with

What an awesome collection! Since Harry Metcalfe already did a great review on the Beta and there is well enough on Integrales on youtube, my vote is for the 130 TC!
Good shout
I fully agree. The Ritmo 130TC which stands not for twin cam or twin carburators but for Turismo Competitione nerds to be driven and sampled.
My pick also, you see stuff on all the others regularly but a Strada Abarth 130 is a rare animal. I bet it sounds great snorting through them twin carbs
Certainly not the quickest car in his collection, but I love that Italia 90 Panda. Great little touches with the football alloys, wonderful cushions on the back seats, etc

My friend had one as his first car, I thought it was the best thing ever. He sold it for a Golf GTI which he liked more because it was faster.....
@@GTE_Channel not sure about that! my 130tc was faster than my mates GTi but back then the GTi was the ‘posher’ option
@@dominicwood3750 Faster than the 8v but not the 16v, My mate had the 130TC and I had the MK2 GTI 16v. I loved those days, glad I kept my yellow Corrado G60 Lol....
What a collection of cars, you can keep your supercars. This is where its at for me. Great video Jonny!
Top man Mark you know your stuff, sadly the petrolhead dramas will never leave you
One of the best collections I’ve ever seen. Sold my 130TC a few years ago and wish I’d been able to keep it - with that in mind Jonny you should definitely drive the Strada…👍🏻
From Italy 🇮🇹
Congratulations!
I hope to see in the future same Alfa Romeo in your collection!
Beautiful!
The Delta for us is the Queen so I'm so happy to see again in your collection too!
Great Car Cave episode...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 What a great collection, I'd happily have or drive any.
Hats off Mark for the collection and for keeping them turn key ready.
It's got to be the Evo 2 and The Clio Williams 2 at the top of the Jonny must drive list...🥳🥳
Love the Lancia’s but the strada abarth is the real deal 👌 what a collection 😻
Personally I would like to see you drive the Lancia Beta, it looks cool and very rare. I think I’ve seen reviews on most the others. What a superb collection!
Best Collection so far!
I dreamed of owning a Williams....probably a blessing I didn't get one, I blew the Gearbox up on my 16V Clio in 2003, I was racing a Saxo VTS on the M54 😅. I couldn't afford to fix it!
Very good. I too had a SuperStrada whilst lusting after a 105/130TC.
Drive the 130TC Johnny!
I think this is one of the best car cave videos so far. Great guy and fabulous collection so much closer to the sort of thing I would aspire to than some. Either or both Lancia would be on my drive list!
What a great guy, really loves his cars and what an amazing collection
Great car collection. Amazing to see this.
The fact that Mark offered more money than the lady was asking for the 205 says a lot about him.
Great collection, Mark. Glad to hear you're enjoying the Impreza. Nice to see the drip tray being put to good use! 😉
I find cars like these far more interesting than the modern supercars.
Another brilliant episode !
I’ve always loved the 130tc , I remember it featured in a hot hatch test in Fast Lane magazine .
I liked the fact it still had twin carbs rather than injection , they sounded superb .
Drive the Strada !
Love the strada - get the air box off expose the trumpets. Noise will bring me back to the late 80’s great days
What a great video Johnny! My favourite car of all these is the hotrod-GTI Ritmo/Strada 130TC… Actually never seen a driving review ever! I vote for that. 😊
Oh, drive the 130TC. the front seats are a hoot, especially if anyone needs to get into the back seats :D
Definitely! I remember my mates hated me driving because it was so hard to get into the back. They were great recaro seats though.
The VR6 Corrado sold me. I had one 14 years before it got stolen. The best car I ever owned.
Love this! And serious want for the Panda 4x4 Sisley! Glorious thing. But cleaning bird poo off cars before you use them gets old fast.
This guy just has the best taste ever. Admiration is in place here. Just sheer admiration 🙏❤️🇮🇹
What a great collection, so refreshing to see an owner who keeps all his cars running and registered, not covered in dirt with flat tires and batteries . My vote is for the Lancia Stratton :)
The Lancia Delta of course! Duhhhhhhhhh!!
Sweet, sweet collection! Gotta be a drive in the Williams. Remember when these were obtainable back in the late 90s... not anymore!
You've got to drive the Ritmo/Strada Abarth, better than the Mk1 Golf GTi.
Very torquey, equal lenth driveshafts and independen rear suspension (struts and a transverse leafspring with huge droop travel).
There were at one stage plans for a 170TC with the Abarth 16 Valve head.
Just don't go over 60mph or the front goes very light. Would definitely have benefitted from 10 minutes in a wind tunnel!
@@Pionirish Not true at all they were a great car at high speed
You need to drive the Ritmo 130 TC.. that's how it used to be called , when I was a kid!
Wow - cars like these gets me going way more than any super car do! Especially the R5 and Clio 😍. What a great collection! Drive the Clio!!!
Clio Williams is greatest hot hatch ever made 👊
so 30 years in the police means you can afford a massive car collection? wish i knew that when i was younger.
What a great collection.
If I had the funds, I don't think my own collection would be too much different.
Police pensions must be good!
What a great guy and what a collection.
Mark could probably afford a couple of supercars - I know the GT4 is borderline that - but instead he has a THE dream, a 20 odd car garage and what a great taste. You cannot go wrong with 80 and 90s people's heroes cars, particularly the Italian and French metal.
He just needs an Alfa there.
By the way Johnny, drive the Corrado or the Beta VX 😎
Beta Volumex and the Corrado are the must drives for me. But if given the chance I'd say 'all of them'!
You picked a pair of unicorns there...
Mark, please adopt me! Johnny, I’d say Integrale and Williams
Great collection Mark, John’s old 4x4 has never had it so good. 👍
I was soo sad to see Axel go but so happy Mark has restored it soo well! And yes I may have driven it rather hard off road a few times :P
Perfectly normal treatment of a Panda 4x4. 😆
Wowww!!! Corrado VR6 VSR the super unicorn car 😵💫
Unbelievable collection, best I’ve ever seen 👏🏻👏🏻. Drive the Strada!
Johnny, drive the Evo2. Hope that's what you wanted us to say, bucket list car and all that.... Love the channel, thank you for the programmes which I for one look forward to seeing. All the best.
Beg your pardon Jonny. Damn spelling check.
So nice to see a collection that actually gets used. 👌🏻
Great collection of these cars, Drive both the Lancia's, Thee owner is a lucky man, All the best Jonny, Bob
What a fantastic selection of cars.
Love to see a review of the Fiat 4x4 or the cinquecento.
What a wonderful and diverse collection. I’d love to see you drive the Beta. They are quite rare over here, especially as anything other than rust buckets, but I’ve long had a soft spot for them 😊
I couldn't of enjoyed this more. Thanks Jonny.
Awesome collection, not sure about a few “style” things like hella covers on a corrado🤮🤦🏼♂️
And all wind sh1t deflectors on windows should be in the bin as they’re fecking pointless as serve no purpose and look gash, seriously a window is just open and you get a draft…. That’s the point or it’s shut🤷♂️🤦🏼♂️😂, but that’s purely my view, BUT as I said loving his collection!👌🏻
To drive any of them is easy, as it would be the square boxed yellow thing as it’s the best, even over a GT4 and my 911 has the same engine…. Love it but I’ve driven the older Italian and I still prefer older cars even though they’re flawed and sometimes sh1t compared to newer cars, it’s about how it makes you feel from the seat of your pants!
Going for a max run on the autobahn wasn’t hard in my beetle, yeah moves about a bit but my RS at 144….my bum was gulping! (Also pissed my mate off with a Cosworth as he only got 142!🤷♂️🤣)
Top work as always Jonny👍🏻😉
Jonny's passion making these videos just makes you happy.
BEST ONE SO FAR! Please drive the GT4 - you've done the 718 but the 981 is WAY better (I'm a 981 GT4 owner and would love to see your reaction to how visceral the car is, especially the sound). Also please drive the Clio WIlliams and the Lancia Beta Stratton. Please, and thank you.
Jonny, don’t drive the grale, you might not be able to give it back! You’ve got to take that Sisley up a very steep hill, followed by the Scooby. Then a French triple with the 5 turbo, 205 and Williams. I have so much want for that Williams (despite having a grale for years). Finally, the Strada and that fantastic Stratton volumex. A long list, but I know you can make it happen

This is exactly the kind of collection I'd have if I could. Can't beat an eclectic mix of desirables, quirky choices and shitboxes
Great stuff Mark and what a collection. I may be biased though because I was born in Nott'm. 68 years ago. The best bit is that , yes, he's got a GT4 Cayman but, his obvious passion is the rest of the collection.

You get so much Group b goodness in the UK, Growing up in New Zealand we only really got Japanese versions😅🇳🇿
I'll never forget one guy who was a joiner had a lancia delta and he was on his 5th gearbox under warranty the first year 🤟🇬🇧😎
Bodders, this is a brilliantly filmed piece and the location only adds to the drama in my view. I know you love your cars and driving them even more, so this film really captures your true passion! Proud of you!
Thanks chief!😊
Please have a drive of the Fiat Cinquento Sporting. I had one and they are surprisingly practical and good fun.
Drive all of them Johnny. Or Mark can I just come & look at your collection? 🙂
Not the man you want to see in your rear view mirror whilst you are doing 75 down East Bridgeford Bridgeford road! That was a fee years ago mind you.
I also have a Twingo RS as a first car and insurance is considerably less than people I know that have the typical corsa or fiesta.
I had a Twingo 133, fantastic handling little car. Hope your son enjoys it.
The car to drive has to be the Lancia Integrale. Preferably on winding "B" roads that are deserted!
Fantastic collection that brings back memories as I have owned 2 or 3 of them, and the last shot looks like a 90s EVO mag cover!
It does look v early EVO, good point. I think Mark is a big fan of EVO too, so that is apt.
My favourite car cave to date, great episode, seeing all the cars I wanted in my youth. My favourite, the Strada, I really wanted one of those in 1984 but needed the money to buy a house.
My choice of your drive, either of the Lancia's or the Strada.

Ps I concur with Mark the Williams Clio is a special drive, especially on some Welsh Roads!!
This is a real car collection. Proper cars from the era when things weren't always the best in build quality but they were built with one thing in mind. Fabulous collection.
As for which to drive, any of them coz they are all good.
Build quality really isn't that bad in a lot of cases.
So much to get excited over. Take the Clio Williams out for a burn.
What a great collection of motors nothing too over the top just plenty of extremely good cars, Copper with cost of some of the cars what was he a chief inspector or higher , Johnny you have to drive the intergrale in Yellow it looks fabulous .Once again fantastic collection.
Drive the Beta Coupe. The fact it's one of only 3 left will be special.
What a great collection of cars Mark. Thanks for sharing them with us. If I could drive one it would have to be the Strada.
On a power to weight ratios, this collection would be hard to beat. Which one is a difficult one but I would try the 4x4 Panda, the Delta will probably win.
All those cool cars and his daily drive is a Seicento sporting.. Good choice....
Excellent video and collection. I'm really torn but my vote is for the Clio Williams. There was one local when I was at college I used to see knocking about and always fancied one.
You should drive the Integrale. I know that's the one i 'd drive....
Fantastic edition. Those cars bring back so many memories, some cars I've had some I wanted and still do. The man has great taste. The Beta is stunning, my cousin had the integrale so i know them well. Would love to drive the Beta

Hi Rob, yes😊
what a cool guy and an awesome collection.... thanks for sharing
What a bloody magnificent collection! So much more interesting than the many Ferrari- and/or Porsche collections. Great cars.
Great video Jonny and thanks to Mark for sharing his fantastic collection... I know Rob at the wheel refurb place, he's a top bloke too. I'd want to see if there'd much difference between the Williams and the R5 Raider.
Fantastic! One of the best yet. Interesting cars at bought at real world prices, so much more enjoyable than a collection of unobtanium that mere mortals are unlikely to ever experience or own. More please!
What a great bloke. I had a brand new R5 GT Turbo in 1989, kept it standard. Good memories.
Best collection yet , love the range of great cars 👏
Another top notch video, probably my favourite car cave yet and Mark is a top guy and knowledgeable about his cars.
