Ol Harry is everywhere doing a bit of everything.... One week he's Crossing the desert on a Motorcycle, the next he's Planting and harvesting his fields then driving to the Arctic in a beat up old RR , then he's doing checkups on his own restorations as well as showing and sharing his own collection and other interesting and newly released vehicles.. After all of that, he's hosting and showing us what's going on with the Silverstone auction.
Reminded me of a girl I knew in uni... her dad bought her a 928 as a high school graduation present... purple metallic with a white leather interior. Had to get special gov't permission to have the top of the dash trimmed in white leather to match. Yes... they were crazy, stupidly wealthy. Car looked ridiculous.
@@benrawson007 Yes, but you have that backwards. He wants the car restoration TV show, BBC/Amazon both said "Yeah, no, there's a ton of those". Hammond is basically Jeff Bezos-ing into space...Broadcasting space. It's a power move.
Back in early the 90's i was virtually forced onto a verge by an unmarked police car on a small country road near Tetbury.... in the middle of the unmarked cars was Prince Charles in his Vantage heading for home , Hate to think of what he thought of the Austin Maestro van i was in though ... OH look a peasant :)
After all these years, I STILL cannot believe how undervalued Jaguar XJ220's are, especially considering it's contemporaries of the time. Dream car since the very first time I saw one - truly stunning.
29:00 - I bet Alex, Geddy and dear, dear Neil would be chuffed to see a genuine Red Barchetta (🎵) in the auction. "Wind in my hair... Shifting and drifting... Mechanical music... Adrenalin surge..." What a Rush! 😁
I wish you had looked at the 928 sitting outside as I have always liked the look of that car since my neighbor bought one in the 80's. You should do a voiceover vlog running through these cars again, stating what they actually sold for. Love your vlogs, hello from CA! 😁👍✌
Yeah, it was a toss up between the Smart Crossblade and the '73 911 2.7 RS. But seriously...when do you EVER see a REAL 2.7 rs cross the block? What a thing!
What an incredible assortment of cars and motorcycles alike. By the way Harry, in my opinion there's certainly no need to apologize for the sound of motorcycles running around a circuit in the background. Should any grandchildren come along in my life, that's a sound that they may never know at the rate things are going. As always, thanks for sharing such wonderful content with us.
Oh my god, so many beautiful cars and I cannot possess any of them. I'll be happy with just that Ferrari 456, one of my first car-loves when I was a kid.
That xj220 is beautiful in that colour. I was lucky enough to do some paint work corrections on one recently. All the TWR built parts were pure exotica, all the jaguar parts were broken or repaired at some point!
The black AM V8 Vantage Coupe was Timothy Dalton's Bond car in Living Daylights. That was my first introduction to Bond movies growing up and I always loved that car. Amazing to see one out in the real world!
Harry I love your enthusiasm for cars and bikes have only recently done my bike test at 53 and am really enjoying my motorcycling well done great videos
Harry I want the next installment of the jag.i love that car,and want to see more of it,I know these things take time, but would love more updates. Lovely car and a fantastic colour. Cant wait to see it in all its glory.
But I'd take an F40 over an xj220 10 times out of 10, so not sure it is undervalued. It's not as pretty, it's a lot heavier, its engine isn't special. So not sure it is that undervalued.
@@improcrastinating8063 disagree about the looks. Never liked the F40 looks [old fashioned when it came out. Designed with a ruler]. As for how they drive, that's a different matter.
In 1993 in the US Jaguar desperate to gain attention for the XJ220 held a short lived racing series called Fast Masters, basically a group of retired racers racing identically prepared XJ220s. But that wasn't the crazy part, they raced them on short ovals. It really didn't take long for Jaguar to see they had made a mistake as cars were getting chewed up at a rather good clip. You know racers being racers and walls being rather immovable.
I used to think it was inevitable that the XJ220 would eventually rise in value and take its rightful place among the F40, 959 and EB110. I’m not so sure anymore. There’s no fathomable reason for it, but they may stay relatively cheap forever.
That 964 Turbo S has the same spec as the one sold by RM Sothebys in 2017 (with 0 km and still the protective coating on the paint). That CanCan Red interior is so cool in such a car. Stunning.
A fascinating review of the wonderful selection of cars on sale. The Rolls Royce with Lambs Wool boot lining and inlaid doors was a bargain, as were a good few others. Your innate ( and learnt ) awareness of all of the vehicles is appreciated Harry.
Fabulous tour of fabulous machinery. But, having owned no less than 7 Rover SD, may Ipoint out with respect it is a Rover SD1(one) not a Rover SDI so many folk make this error. If I was still able to drive and had unlimited funds, that would be the car for me. Thanks for the tour Harry Cheers, Bob
Thanks for covering this Harry - I've actually just come off the back of working a week's worth of nights, and during that time, I was happily spending my Euromillions Win on pretty all of this little lot! Enough to say, with the right bank balance, you could very easily get carried away!
Harry love both your vids for great cars and your farming interests. I farm in a small way and as a younster worked for racing driver Reg Parnell . Dont think i could compete with you in either fields but do enjoy your
The price of old jallopy's has gone through the roof. Ford escorts going for a kings ransom. Mind you they way they rusted back in the 70's, 80's i am surprised there are any left.
Hello 'Harry's Garage', great insight to the Silverstone Classic Sale with your knowlege on the cars to look out for, very enjoyable. reards, RichardA.
Delectable eye candy wherever you look but if I have to take only one, it's gotta be the BDA engined Escort RS1600. Am I nuts? Thank you for the video Harry. Who needs a TV any more?
Another great video. Maybe there should be a second (Directors) edit with even more footage! I could watch it for hours. We saw Harry wonder by at the back of the pits on Saturday. The Hammond collection turned out to be more fun than I could have imagined, he and his camera crew parked themselves within 6 feet of myself and my buddies for the duration. It was fun to see his reactions as the various lots went under the hammer.
Harry you missed the Early wedgwood blue Range Rover you looked towards it but never mentioned it. As they are one of your favourites I was quite surprised. As always great presentation and if only I had reasonably deep pockets. I felt like a child looking through the window of a sweetshop
Aaargh..that Kawasaki 750, stunning. That period of Japanese bikes was simply the best ever, along with some of the Italians of the same era. So that, the Pearlescent White Quattro, Challenger and Maserati 222 please (always loved the wacky aerofoil over the wipers on that 😏) If the URQ meets its' estimate, that will be a new record; only one better and thats the Tornado Red one in the Audi UK collection with its gold delivery wax still on the engine...
When I was a lad the poster on my bedroom wall was of a Aston Martin V8 Vantage X pack my dream car, and at that sort of money it will always be a dream car 😅
Some of these segments (like the Vantage) remind me of when I worked in electronics retail and had to sell washing machines to Mums'. I do the same "nonchalant glance at the sticker" lol.
I was waiting for you to address the colour on the AM db6 in that dark olive metallic green your xjc is gonna be painted in.Always enjoy your videos whatever the subject throughly captivating always draws me in even cars that I don't think I like , I then look at them in a different light after your view on them. take care H
Thanks Harry . Let's be honest , it doesn't matter how many miles it hasn't done , it doesn't matter it's unregistered . It ain't worth a million quid !
I love these auction videos, always very interesting... Also, who are these people only putting 72 miles onto a Alfa 8C! Why buy it in the first place.

Pussyole comment
Guess he's one step ahead of Clarkson and crew.
Mr Harry so very energetic man..💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Check all the Hammond vehicles for accident damage.
…every one will have damage history. And blood stains.
@@hertzair1186 and empty tooth whitening powder boxes in the boot..
No need when he crashes he knows how to crash. It’ll just be a burnt out shell
🤣
🤣🤣
OMG - that red interior in the 964 Turbo was just hysterical!
Reminded me of a girl I knew in uni... her dad bought her a 928 as a high school graduation present... purple metallic with a white leather interior. Had to get special gov't permission to have the top of the dash trimmed in white leather to match. Yes... they were crazy, stupidly wealthy. Car looked ridiculous.
Yeah it’s a bit alarming. I went to see it when it was for sale in Porsche Cardiff. Was up for 800k and sat for a while.
Absolutely awful!
Check out the purple wheels too. Actually terrible!
Hammond is destroying all of the evidence that says he's over 39.
He didn't have his teeth whitened!
Never rode the Norton he got for his 50th - even had raised bars... the Porsche was nice - would have hung on to that.
@@KM-dp6jj These cars will rocket even more once you can only buy big, ugly, heavy electric cars. It won't be because of that.
I can't believe he has to sell this stuff to raise money for a TV show.
@@benrawson007 Yes, but you have that backwards. He wants the car restoration TV show, BBC/Amazon both said "Yeah, no, there's a ton of those". Hammond is basically Jeff Bezos-ing into space...Broadcasting space. It's a power move.
Your “auction videos” could be a channel on its own!:) love these:)
I could watch an auction tour ALL DAY LONG Harry, you’re the best!
You could hear the cogs ticking whilst looking at that Elan engine.
Excellent presentation , love the comment where you say, I don’t really need another Maserati , quite flippantly.
Harry has form in owning Maseratis of this era.
What are the odds that Harry puts a bid in on that one?
I love the black Aston Vantage... Always loved this car.
me too. Especially the later beefier version.
Back in early the 90's i was virtually forced onto a verge by an unmarked police car on a small country road near Tetbury.... in the middle of the unmarked cars was Prince Charles in his Vantage heading for home , Hate to think of what he thought of the Austin Maestro van i was in though ... OH look a peasant :)
Yes was shocked at the caption £85k+ what a blunder
The Pearlescent quattro 20V is simply beautiful.
Yep. 🙂
And sold. For £145,000
@@HamburgEnglishman £163k all in😳
Just nuts... But there are a few with big miles hitting over €100k here in Germany. 100% an investment.... Lucky chap
My dream car but that price is simply nuts
"Another old antique thing that I don't understand at all." Haha.
I thought he was talking about Clarkson there for a second.
He’s an honest man, Harry 😃
That Velocette was the only thing that piqued my interest. Hmmm, Harry's about my age too. 😉🍺
@@ErgonBill What was it ? A KTT ?
Cracked me up too... Harry just infuriated thousands of antique motorcycle devotees.
Could watch you wander about talking about those cars all day!
100%!!
After all these years, I STILL cannot believe how undervalued Jaguar XJ220's are, especially considering it's contemporaries of the time. Dream car since the very first time I saw one - truly stunning.
Right, that Aston vantage and the xj220 were the same price. I know which I'd rather have.
Oh my! That little Alfa 1900 is the car for me - just beautiful!
Ditto.
Did you spot the other Alfa 1900 Touring Coupe at 29.38?
Always a pleasant surprise when these auction videos are uploaded. Thanks as always Mr. Metcalfe. 👍
Reckon if Harry wasn't balls deep into 2 resto projects he might of been bidding on that Elan R.....I can see a glint in his eye
*3* Resto projects!
Or the Maserati - he has history there
That Elan is worth buying and just leaving it as is.
@@Zadster The Artic rolls is a done deal !
I love these auction videos! It's like the ultimate window shopping experience!
29:00 - I bet Alex, Geddy and dear, dear Neil would be chuffed to see a genuine Red Barchetta (🎵) in the auction.
"Wind in my hair... Shifting and drifting... Mechanical music... Adrenalin surge..."
What a Rush! 😁

Can't believe Harry didn't even mention the smart crossblade sitting in the back there
Yeah, it was a toss up between the Smart Crossblade and the '73 911 2.7 RS. But seriously...when do you EVER see a REAL 2.7 rs cross the block? What a thing!
Someone actually bought that for 17,750 plus vat & fees! I was standing in the auction room in disbelief. The UR went for something like 160k!!!
Well welcome! Really enjoy seeing some of the hidden treasures at these auctions.
What an incredible assortment of cars and motorcycles alike.

Harry looks sharp, tidied himself up nicely for the event, love these Silverstone auction vids
We love him however he's dressed ! .
@@geraldswain3259 yup Harry a star. Does what it says on the tin. Especially like the countryside where vids filmed
That xj220 is beautiful in that colour. I was lucky enough to do some paint work corrections on one recently. All the TWR built parts were pure exotica, all the jaguar parts were broken or repaired at some point!
Harry increased the Euro Lottery sales tonight by 40%. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
That 964`s interior is gastly, the star of the show was the UR Quattro for sure.
As a rev head from NZ, these reports are gold. The variety & quality up for auction is making me salivate. Great work Harry's garage.
Brilliant video. Know nothing about classic cars, but loved it. That Porsche at the very end with the all red interior was just wow.
I just don’t get those old ‘fast’ Fords. 80 grand for an Escort Mk1? Madness.
The black AM V8 Vantage Coupe was Timothy Dalton's Bond car in Living Daylights. That was my first introduction to Bond movies growing up and I always loved that car. Amazing to see one out in the real world!

I love the look and shape of the silver Porsche in the thumbnail pic!
Super fun to follow you through all these classic cars and bikes! I love the 1972 Jag, absolutely stunning!
In one hour I’ve watched the t50 tease, Ollie’s dls piece and now this, god today has been good

Remember when the XJ220s were in the US on Fast Masters? Crash Masters? Yes. Those cars were raced and smashed! 😂😂

Really enjoy these auction preview videos Harry!
These porsche prices are hilarious 😂

who else can't wait for the next XJC episode?
