We need an April Fool from Harry where he talks us through the car park at Morrisons.
I am not from England, what is Morrisons?

No we don’t

It’s still be interesting 😂
I’m working on a remote mine site in Western Australia. It’s been over 45c all week and I’m wrecked. I needed this video Harry 👌🏼
Not much cooler in Perth , mate!
10c in Blighty🇬🇧🥲
Karratha? I feel you in that heat mate

The T16 is probably the ideal farm car.
Not at the price it will go for 😂
Maybe for a melonfarmer
Only if you’re farming cannabis.
Harry knows a farmer down the road who might be interested
Horrendous to drive on the road. Look good in the garage mind.
It is pleasantly surprising how Harry, with his entire collection of sports cars and luxury cars, all the cars he has tried in his life and practically has any car at his fingertips and continues to infect us with that authentic passion that he carries in his heart. We love you Harry!!
Always nice to see Harry talk full of passion about cars. This is the best lunchbreak footage in a long time. Happy weekend everyone 😊
Harry's videos are my default watch during work's lunch breaks too. 😊
I absolutely love these auction reviews that you do Harry. So many absolute legends for sale there. Thank you for these. You are as excited as I would be.
SO many cars that have clearly just sat in an oxygen-tent. Crazy low mileages; therefore un-driveable.
Me too. With so much car content on the internet these are my favourite types of video.
Totally agree with you
i wish he showed us all the Cars and made a part 2 Video showcasing all the Cars
I remember as a young 18 year old driving my mother's Austin Metro, just coming out of Stafford on the A518 and a Peugeot 205 T16 in the same colour was being delivered on trade plates to the Stafford main dealer. I did a quick U turn and made a bee-line straight there as if I remember correctly they eheeled it into their showroom where it took pride of place. Myself and my best friend looked around it with dropped jaws. 40 years later, i guess it's a memory I'll remember for ever.
What a memory to have! Thanks for sharing
I saw one in Bramley garage in Surrey in the early 90s. Such an impressive piece of kit.
I remember this I was working at Lancia in Brocton Stafford at the time. Very happy times 😊
I worked for a Peugeot dealer back in the day, they had one from Peugeot for an event, I had the honour of driving it back onto the transporter!
@@davekirton4096 You lucky guy Dave. Did you realise the significance of it at the time?
Guide price on the 205 T16 is £235-275k if anyone was wondering
Thanks he didn’t say. I think he’ll have a pop for it 😉
Let's hope to see the Peugeot 205 T16 in Harry's garage!!!
Awesome run through Harry. That 309 is THE collectors piece. Burns is a legend.
Love the Auction videos.... if I was a multi-millionaire, with a big barn, I'd be terrible at these things!
The 205 T-16 drivetrain still blows my mind. The engine is to one side, the turbo and cooling on the other, and the enormous transmission in between.
Yes a very odd layout with the Engine so offset to the right .but if I remember correctly they used a Renaut 25 gear trans axel gear box with driveshafts going the front and rear diffs they did real sorcing parts from various PSA group car models to build the 205 T16 the engine block was that of the then pre production 205 Deisel road car the real cutting edge part was the F1 designed Turbo Charger and Fuel system and the 16 valve head and fuel injection.
That engine layout was not perfect and car would pitch forwards when flying over jumps leading to one near fatal crash in 1985 and when the Evo Version gained a massive rear wing and other changes to keep it stable during flights.
Were the 200 road goings cars ever built ? If they were like Audi or worse Lancia who bother only built a fraction of the 200 road going cars and basically fudged the FIA inspection tests to gain enter into Group B. Still a very rare car indeed.
@@clockdva20200 were were built! I’ve seen quite a few of the works E1 and E2 cars in anger plus the Dakar derivative.
@@clockdva20
What is a “deisel”?
205 still looks modern 40 years on, Absolute styling Masterclass.
I wouldn’t go as far to say modern, good yes but not modern
No
Styling Masterclass ?? Come on, its a joke. Renault 5 turbo 2 is way nicer. That ugly pug has even got the ugly 1.6 wheel on it and not the much nicer 1.9 wheel. How do you rate the looks of a Lada Niva or a FSO Polonez??
Harry - In the 80s I worked in a Peugeot-Talbot dealership. They sent up a brand new Lotus Sunbeam in black, the idiot director decided he was taking it home for the weekend, filled it full of petrol and promptly screeched away, showing off to the car hire girls watching, and stuffed it into the cemetary wall only 50 yards from the gate. When Peugeot sent the garage a brand new 205 homolgation special (Group B) they had disabled the engine so it wouldn't run. It had to be pushed into the showroom.
Sadly I can't make it. If I didn't have rent this week I'd pop by and grab a few runabouts for the shed.
Wonderful video Harry. Your kid in a candy store vibes always shine through, Thank you so much for bringing us along for the ride .
Wonderful to see the Peugeot 205 T16 - And the Burns Peugeot. I bought my first Peugeot 404 from Bellevue Motors in Newcastle (Australia) in 1969. The owner of the dealership was Tony Crossey who was a rally driver (203's and 403's) and he really taught me to drive. The Hunter Valley, where i lived had a history of great Peugeot rally drivers (including Ken Tubman). This is back in the days when Peugeots were sold by enthusiasts who were often very good mechanics. I never owned a 205 and, to my knowledge is one of the few Peugeots not owned in my family. Great cars - brings back memories. And our family still owns Peugeots. They are great cars.
The excitement in your voice and whole demeanor when the 205 was pushed in was fantastic to see.. i could imagine that Chris Harris would be the same ... Definitely need a joint video with the both of you
Regarding those mini's. After passing my test my dad bought me a 'mini'. BUT, it was actually called an Austin Seven! She was a 1960, baby blue, number DBF 338. Synchro only on 3rd to 4th. It's when I learned double free clutching which I still do to this day? A gear stick that was a meter long. Push button start, (on the floor). Handled like a go cart and was more fun to drive than any car I've owned since. For 3v years it was my prized possession, until it got stolen and I never saw her again 😢
These auction series are my favourite Harry! Thank you so much for your time, work and knowledge!
My mate had a Dimma 205GTI 1.9 White with the roof spoiler.A little old couple tapped on the window in Sainsbury,s car park and said with a big smile " it looks like it's gonna take off"!😅 It had a Skip Brown engine conversion. Not only did it make heads swivel,it was rapid!Back in 91 this was.Fun times in our early Twenties.I remember he had to leave it on his Mums drive because it was too wide for the garage,with the blown arches.
Dimma 205 did look the mutt’s nuts. Turbo technics had one with some serious BHP.

@@DoubleA115
Until the first bend came along.
@@e28forever30 Never had an issue always drove my cars with respect. Astra red top engine was king. O'hh the good old days.
Dimma and Skip Brown are both Cheshire companies.
Great video, Harry. I was drooling through out. Small point, Richard took the WRC title with Subaru.👍
Sincerity and humility make your channel a true gem. Keep shining.
I wish bots talked to me like this
Richard Burns remains my favorite driver. He won the 2001 World Rally Championship with Subaru.
2:22 I've never seen anyone get so excited about a Peugeot! 😁
Certified big kid moment! “Tom!!!!”
Well… its a 205 T16..?!
Maybe because you've never seen a T16 E2 in full rally trim with 550bhp taking apart a rally stage on the RAC?
Group B was full of monsters, some with even more power but this car was the king for the final 2 seasons before it was banned
Peugeots are great cars - extremely reliable - great handling and comfortable. Our family has travelled in excess of 10 million kms (that's correct 10M kms). Never had a major problem and most of the family were hard, fast drivers.
Thx Harry…some of the best variety at Iconic!💪👌
Tha green Pug 205 used to be mine! Couldn't believe it! Had to sell when I moved abroad. Broke my heart!
How much did you sell it for?
@@irnickkkknowles about 2500GBP in 2008Worth more but needed to sell it quickly.
If you're thinking of buying, whe I owned it from about 2001 - 2008, it was looked after really well. Not driven in the wet, only used on weekends etc.
Thanks Harry …. I reckon I’d be interested listening to you , even if you were talking about marmalade
LOVE when you do these pre-auction videos Harry!!
I always enjoy Harry’s auction previews. They are always a must watch!
Thanks Harry, the T16 is a childhood hero.
If only the Iconic auction itself and visual presentation matched Harry's video's enthusiasm and treat for the eyes...
Harry, your enthusiasm is infectious and I appreciate these auction videos, even though I won't be bidding. Thank you.
Great video Harry, cheers. I think the X Pack Capri on tripple webbers caught my eye.
13:45 1963 makes that mini 60 years old Harry! Looks like a wonderful affordable project for someone.
That has got to be the best auction line up ever! I want all of em🤤
Plenty of T16 fans commenting but the fast Fords are pushing my buttons!👍 Not sure about the Mk1 Foxhaul Escort, plenty of good Ford motors to drop in IMO but the Mk1 with the Cossie lump, WOW, what a superb restomod! As a Capri lover though (my first car a 1975 Mk2 3ltr GT) that X pack 3.1 S really gets my juices flowing and doesn't seem over priced either!👍😀
Harry is a kid in a Candy store. 🎉 Brilliant.
These auction videos are brilliant, I could watch you walking around for hours ❤
Thank you Harry. I really enjoy watching your auction videos.
Harry is in his element and it makes for wonderful content.
‘An absolute hooligan of a car’ 😆
We had that very 205 T16 at a cars and coffee event down in Cornwall last year. An absolute stunner to see in person. It was driven, not trailered in. Beautiful.
That Richard Burns PUG was down at Rally Replay in Chichester not too long ago. Had a look round it. Beautiful.
Great lineup of fabulous cars my top 3
205 T16 993 Turbo Xpack 3.1 both M3s 309GTI, never was great at sums 🏴👍🏻
Always appreciate the great independent review of your choices here!
WHAT A VIDEO !! Brilliant commentary and all our dream cars ...
That T16! Group B cars are just the coolest 🔥
I love these. It turns me into a child again.
Love these episodes. Thanks Harry!
More great stuff from Harry, it really makes my week!
Thanks Harry love these ones
Great video once again so keep up the good work Harry!
Oh, the X1/9 and the 205... 😍😍
Excellent!! HG Auction tyre kicking and stories!! Ace!
Great to hear all the facts and figures on these unusual cars, but its the bits of trivia that Harry throws in that really makes his channel stand out.
Harry validates the excitement many of us feel and express when we see a rare and memorable motor- his glee when the Peugeot arrived is infectious. I've not seen him so excited since he collected his Zagato.
Brilliant video but missed the Manta 400
Yes, I noticed that too.
@Neil_Gordon probably the rarest car then 🤷♂️
Also missed the white BMW 3.0Csl
MY work mate had a 400 did a doughnut in the works car park!!!!
Thank you.
When I was a teenager, I regularly went to a neighboring town to see a 205 T16 of the same color as this one, belonging to the boss of a Mac D0nald's.
The car I wanted when I grew up. But I missed out, because today I've got a VW CC and I've only had sedans... you change a lot as you grow up.
Thank you Harry.
Really enjoyed that , would like to have seen more
Some lovely cars and a few dust-bins too :o)
No guide price on the T16 and it is not in the catalogue!
edit: Found it - GUIDE PRICE: £235,000 - £275,000
Phew...I was getting worried that Harry had stopped doing the Iconic auction previews.
Love these videos, BMW Redux, 991 GT3 Touring, 993 Turbo, yes please.
You REALLY don't want the Redux car! Even when it was new and driven by Top Gear Mag and Henry Catchpole. It was blowing blue smoke out the back! £450K for a car built by Retropower? Don't make me laugh! 😂😂
About 20 years ago there was an early 90's Escort w the engine from an XJ220 ending under the bonnet.. it raced the club circuits for a while.. till it presumably crashed.. heavily.
That X19 reminds me of Dennis and Debbie from Christchurch nz.
Lovely people.
Spicy! That Peugeot 205 T16 is gorgeous.
Im watching this seeing 3 of the cars i had in the 90's glancing at my two kids and a dog and a bloody qashqai on the drive trying to convince myself im happier now🤦♂️
i'd love that Jaguar project 7
Beautiful car,only ever saw 1 on the road back in the early 90s
Harry is still the best , knows his stuff with no nonsense information 👍👍
Wow. Abarth X19 is just the thing for doing the shopping. Mid-engined carpark fun.
If I won the lottery the first car I’d seek is a Peugeot 205 T16. My dad bought a brand new 1.8 GRD in 85 and they gave me a little T16 toy car.
Absolutely stunning.
Much as I love the Italian stuff, these guys who prepare these fast Fords know their stuff. That X pack Capri reminds me of LJK Setright CAR magazine road test about 1980 , got me looking for 3 litre Capris at the time .
I remember those days. Back in the 70 those 3.0 capris weren't really that fast? It was more that everything else was woefully slow! Truthfully, they were pretty awful, but relative to what else was on the road they could have been a Ferrari. If you were on the motorway back then you'd be doing well to hit 100mph in anything. And unless it was box fresh it would probably blow itself to pieces! Back in those days cars were far more unreliable. Any motorist would expect to have to service their car twice a year, if you didn't change the battery and tighten the fan belt in the winter it would never start on a cold frosty morning. I'm willing to be that as much as you hear everyone complaining about modern cars being 'overly complex' those same people take for granted cold weather starting and amazing reliability compared to the 'good old day'. Any journey back then was a 'voyage of discovery', you never knew whether you'd get there or breakdown on the way. Overheating in traffic jams in the summer, and frozen radiators in the winter. The only way those old cars can exist in 2024 is by super indulgent owners and by being re-engineered using modern technology, making the cars something it never was, just hoped to be?
@@Toby_the_Glen don’t entirely follow that point. A good 3 litre Essex would knock the door of 120 mph . It was a very underrated engine, no cam belt or timing chain as it ran off gears. Overheating happened in the first editions with the Zodiac , but Ford ironed that out. Provided you regularly service the cooling system, correct anti freeze mixture, radiator caps, thermostat etc they were good to go . These items were standard on most 1970s cars and relatively cheap items to buy , it’s not rocket science, unlike todays cars. Keep it well maintained the Essex is good for well over 100,000 miles. Bought a Ford Escort Mexico Mk1 October 1980 , serviced it once when I bought it , including the cooling system, barely touched car after until I sold it in end 1981.
The white Sierra RS Cosworth at the start is quite competitive in the Thunder Saloons class. It qualified 2nd at Silverstone last year, sadly he had engine issues on race 2 and had to retire.
I've seen it at Donington Park also where it got a podium finish.
Great auction tour for all of us dreamers! Could I ask you to do a follow up showing the sale prices realised? E-Type is my choice.
Fantastic selection of cars. Everything is out of my budget, but dreams are free.
That ‘last edition’ silver Beetle looks rather nice
Love these auction videos
If i could take two would be the T16 and the Maserati Coupe .
thanks Harry
Richard Burns Peugeot has to be the cream of the crop!
Mk1 lotus cortina escort cosworth so many great cars of yesterday amazing auction and nobody better to deliver it than Harry
Would love to see you do some features on ‘90s Japanese cars like the Impreza sti and evo, I know it’s not your usual fare but it would be great
Always loved the 205 , looking forward to seeing a future test drive after you buy it 😂🙏
Richard Burns was World Rally Champion in 2001.
I also thought in a scooby not in a mitsubishi. Harry probably correct though.
@@Bob-kt4yzNope, you are correct. Ricard Burns won the drivers championship for Subaru. He did drive for Mitsubishi in 1998, when they won the manufacturer's title, though.
@@Bob-kt4yz Yeah it sounded odd to me too, so I jumped over to wikipedia, but I guess he was talking about manufacturers' title, in which case it was Peugeot also. Only 3 years with Subaru and 2 years with Peugeot, but I thought it was longer than that. '98 in the Mitsubishi was the year Makinen won his 3rd title, so not surprising they racked up enough points for the title. A long time ago, now...
A lot of stunning cars there. I would have as my top three the mk1 Escort, the Escort Mexico and the works Mini with the spots and I would have the Focus WRC car thrown in as a job lot.
need to have a word with your editor at 3:56 getting his Alfas mixed up! Great video as always
So many Gems.
Clio V6 and the T16 are personal Tops
Such a gentleman, a lovely tribute to Richard Burns, even made a cat N sound nice. 😂
The maroon 911 993 Turbo is probably my favourite car there.. or the E-Type.
The first Cooper was a 997 but superseded by the better 998 The first Cooper S was a 1071 and was replaced by the 1275cc Cooper S later, and also the homolugation special oversquare 970cc Cooper S. When my 998 Cooper engine blew up we fitted a 970 S engine which was a delight as it absolutely loved revs. The 970 S is very rare and I would choose the PRX 815B like a shot
Just wonderful! 😊
My dad has a TR5, he’s owned it’s since 1972!
My favourite presenter of all time. That says it all.
Awesome thanks 😎
The E28 deserves a full video
Love the mark 1 escort
