Fact they even managed to get these cars together for a group test is astonishing. McLaren alone is £15-£20m so overall it must be £30-50m really is the dream come true test.
I'm surprised this content is free to watch, its quality is out of the charts. Thanks to all of you at Carfection, this is gonna be one of the iconic car videos in the next years for sure!
If I was a billionaire with a stupidly large collection of rare and exotic cars there are only 2 people on the planet I’d trust to drive them; Chris Harris and Henry Catchpole. Both would drive the cars the way they’re supposed to be driven but also cherish and respect the experience. This was a great video. I never get sick of seeing a McLaren F1 hooning around a track. Very much looking forward to the next two in the series.
I just need some goddamn onboard shots. How in the f*** does a business meeting happen like this: "So yeah we've got the most legendary cars from the 90s..." "Ok focus the camera on the drivers face. Don't mount any other cameras in the car."
He did walk you through the whole interior to the point where you could sit down and drive off. Just put the engine note together with that in your head. You can complain about anything, can’t you?
Not really, this is two homologation specials and a supercar. The 911 GT1 and CLK GTR were built for the high speed stability at le mans and endurence, not outright performance. For christ sake, the F40 and 959 outperform them both in acceleration and speed, so no these arn't hypercars, let alone supercars. The Veyron, Agera RS, Chiron, Venom GT those are hypercars.
Take a look at the number of incredible vehicles DK Engineering stock and sell - it’s entirely possible they just had them all in-stock at the same time.... :-0
The lime green Miura at 9:47 just peaking about in the back shows the collection of cars there is so immaculate! Going to love these three videos so much
Been watching some the DK Engineering videos - the attention to detail those guys put into restoring and maintaining classics like this is incredible! Another brilliant video though guys, keep up the great work!
A Carfection production, Henry Catchpole, and the 3 pinnacles of hyper cars. Nothing on the internet comes remotely close, i'd happily say nothing eveer will and i havent even finished this video yet. Utter bliss. The CLK GTR's journey from DK Engineering to its new owner in America was also fascinating to follow, glad the new owner is using it properly and sharing it with the world too. Perfection, Carfection!
I thought Carfection is at a point it couldn't get better anymore... But Henry just stepped up next level again. Damn, I'm lost for words to this masterpiece.
these three cars is the reason why I am a carguy today. Thank you Carfections for bringing me back to my childhood! This!! Is purple hearted passion and serenity all in one
The trifecta test we’ve waited 21 years to see on video. Wow, just wow. 0:10 speaks on our behalf. Never seen Henry smile like that. To the owners, and DK Engineering; on behalf of all petrolheads across the globe, Thank You for giving us soul!
In my opinion the Mclaren F1 is the finest road car of all time, the only thing better than seeing new content on it is it seeing it coming from one of the finest automotive journalists of all time, great stuff Henry, I would say you are a lucky man but you have certainly earned the privilege.
Completely speechless this was able to happen. Never thought these OG Hypercars would ever be reviewed again together. The 4K video captured their beauty perfectly. 🤩
It’s rare that I actually cheer for car reviewers. However, I’m genuinely happy for you, Henry and Carfection team! Thanks for bringing us stunning content of the greatest car of all time!
I cant ever see, no matter how much times passes, how any EV will ever bring such joy and emotion as any of these three do today. Even the hybrid La Ferrari, P1 or 918 will never be able to be so pure or emotional, so personal. A time when GT cars were made for men that had the ability to drive them. Not utubers who had the cash to buy them.
I think we can honestly say that getting these 3 together and actually properly testing them makes this the most special car review in history. Hats off guys!
While I readily admit to being an EVO super fan (I read it since it was Performance car and Jon B was binning Porsches in ditches) when Henry arrived he quickly became my favourite Journo. All these years later this is the most EVO edition of Carfection yet and the purity of his elation makes it so relatable. Great editorial content here. We all wish we were there. Well chuffed with this video. Here’s to all the best for Henry in the future. !!
This might be the best trio of cars to ever be reviewed in one shot. Chris Harris did the duo with the F40 & F50 back-to-back on a track day, but these 3 are truly Unicorns. Amazing, can’t wait for the next instalment!

How do you put together a test with an F1 and two other cars, and it turns out the F1 is the least rare?
Fact they even managed to get these cars together for a group test is astonishing. McLaren alone is £15-£20m so overall it must be £30-50m really is the dream come true test.
I know right. Weird.
The F1 wasn't made to be rare infact it wasn't made for the price that it is now , but still i would love one in this colour or black
Homologation specials
The fact theres a bright yellow miura in the background and its not even mentioned is saying something about the level of these cars
This wins the internet today. The F1 is the absolute pinnacle for me. Well done Carfection, I hate to think how much the insurance was for this test!
Had it been any other car show presenter/personality I'd have been so jealous, but with Henry I just think "I'm so happy for you."
Saw Alex Penfold shoot all 3 of these together! Amazing cars 😍
Legendary. There's something so special about capturing those moments, that simply observing is a thrill.
Which would you choose for a drive? (this is part 1, parts 2 and 3 are coming this week. Make sure you are subscribed so you don't miss it)
