Chris Harris introduces The Leonard Collection from Collecting Cars

[@jamesbg]

Chris Harris looking at car collections in a shed is my favourite KZbin sub-genre.

[@tonyosullivan2382]

Completely agree.

[@romerosneck]

Me too man...me too

[@TheG60528XiJinPing]

Second that notion

[@kylekennedy420]

I’d watch these types of videos with Chris any day.

[@jidofole]

Less talkin more driving...innit

[@jerisbradley9031]

I really really REALLY wish Chris Harris still did his own car reviews on a consistent basis. Man I love this guy

[@amyjeffs3269]

and yet the guy had to get counciling after taking torrents of abuse when he started to work on topgear. Just goes to show what a bunch of fkn idiots the UK public are.The man is a motoring UK tressure.Always loved everything about him.

[@CITRUS--]

Well here’s the thing, top gear shouldn’t have been touched again. Chris’ pieces with Neil that he puts out every now and again, completely shit on his top gear pieces. I do hope he’s being well compensated by bbc BUT I wish he just stayed on the internet and the BBC just killed top gear. I don’t like top gears chris Harris character, he will always be best in videos like this and CHOC.

[@SuperSuperAllons93]

@@CITRUS-- Yeah how dare he chase a dream and a consistent income far exceeding what he already earned. He should've just stayed on the internet. Get over Top Gear.

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

agreed

[@DavidWilliams-bg5yk]

If you haven't seen it, check out his review of the Alfaholics GTA-R. Chris at his best, and just wonderful to watch.

[@jonathanpowell1470]

This video could have been 4 hours long and I'd have sat and watched the whole thing intently.

[@Dudeness1994]

Can we have then also andreas (idk his last name) the porsche dude for a day

[@gavinj01]

I wish it was 4 hours long!!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

SAME

[@jontymo]

WOW, I love these Cris Harris videos when he walks around with his jaw on the floor - nearly as good as the 80's collection he did!

[@LiamConlanBeyondSabotage]

I watch that 80’s collection video once a month 😂

[@jontymo]

@@LiamConlanBeyondSabotage Yep it is a classic and as a now 52 year old passed my driving test in 1986 in the middle of what was the most exciting period ever in the car world - just wish I still had my XR2 or Cavalier SRi.

Titanium rods really come into their own on those 200 delivery miles pre-break-in on the way to the heated garage.

[@cmdreffietrinket]

Agreed. Pointless beyond no point whatsoever. Disgraceful.

[@fredlabosch5164]

Absolutely agree, the way I perceive it, these are just some other 'investement commodities' in one big 'portfolio'. What an utter shame!

[@alecarift2562]

I could listen to Chris talk cars all day long... His knowledge, love and enthusiasm is captivating...

[@lukehartwell]

I could watch only Chris Harris walking around warehouses looking at cars forever. Gutted we didn't hear what he had to say about the Sport Classic, one of my favourite 'modern' 911's - Gorgeous!!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Same!

[@stephenhenion8304]

Woow! What a Car Collection. Thanks for the walk around and great narration! Each one is a show piece. This is why we love Cars!!! Love my Mini Cooper S!!!

[@barsaf9989]

I would watch 500 videos of Chris just walking around and talking about cars in a random building.

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

SAME!

[@Tom-lf8hx]

I hope chris reads these, and knows he is truely loved, you could binge watch these all day long, then watch more as he talks about his 2cv ❤❤

[@laffonte]

"Ignore the Fiat for a minute..." Savage 😂

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

bahahahah

[@mattdedasc]

basically a collection of paintings. These will never be driven. Stunning but sad at the same time

[@phmwu7368]

Indeed what will this do value-wise as these cars will only be able to be driven on a private circuit, due to 2028 legislation and Low Emission Zones, etc...

[@misorodzinak8829]

Exactly. These are machines engineered to deliver the ultimate driving pleasure, but their potential is not being used. To use an analogy - what is a musical instrument good for, if it isn't being played?

[@deadjumpers87]

It's not like I can afford to have a parked Porsche or a driven one but I totally agree. Porsches for me look better used, the beauty of the new or low milage ones is their potencial to be driven and enjoyed, unfortunately like a lot of great things these days their value susperceeds their owners desire to drive them and they end up falling into the investement catagory. I always think, If we were all able to look into the far future we would see that all these cars will one day ceast to exist so why not use and enjoy them whilst you can? Although in England these days driving on public roads is torture so I probably wouldn't use them either....

[@delk5024]

Great video. I find it so sad that there are so many great cars that have hardly been used.

[@kobbiemelo2203]

This is the difference between an OG car journalist and a youtuber/influencer. You can actually feel the passion when he talks about the details.

[@oliiverbetts]

This needs to be a series on Top Gear YT or more on Collecting Cars, this and the old Bimmers and Mercs collection are outstanding!

[@quaaludes7898]

Chris walking through a garage of cars. Name something more entertaining to watch

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Can't

[@coco-83rabana44]

Had to watch this twice. Absolutely astonishing all minters.

[@1anre]

His presentation style is always brilliant. I wish I can talk about cars as freely, from-memory as he does someday.

[@elliotjharris9908]

So glad all of these are pretty much new, perfect for me to daily

[@ChrisSaddlerSam]

5:11 "IGNORE....THE FIAT FOR A MINUTE!" ahahaha

[@911aircooled5]

OMfG !!!! Well done Chris, would have loved to spend the whole day in that "shed"! Thanks for the upload.

[@Tahoe58]

Fabulous. Simply fabulous. A sensational opportunity to walk among the greats, with one of the greats!

[@SergeantMoetz]

If you want to sell some cars than Chris Harris is the right man to advertise them.

[@TheDoosh79]

Thing is, once a car has got to a certain age without accruing many miles, nobody is then brave enough to drive it. Like owning an unopened vintage wine, who is going to be the one to buy it and actually drink it?!

[@matthewcohen194]

whistlindiesel

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

LOL good comparison

[@tryitout-701]

No point in having a car and not driving it.

[@user-yv3im6gw9j]

Listening to Chris Harris talk about Porsches, is like listening to Socrates discuss philosophy

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

agreed

[@joxepojoxepin2752]

He knows nothing about cars then.

[@spainter1985]

It's almost sacrilege that some of these have so few miles, they should be driven and enjoyed

[@thedownshiftchannel]

I never expected him to show this stuff to the public but it makes sense if they are going on collecting cars.

[@rjnation5042]

Wow, good God, thanks for the walk around Chris, I think I'd be in debt till the end of time with all those going to sale near me, Rj drooling in Oz

[@ktmsupermoto]

I struggle to think of anything I like more in the "car genre" than videos of this chap looking at car collections. There's another one - arguably even better where he looks at BMWs etc. If you're of a certain age, it doesn't get better than this.

[@t.h.9187]

3:30 Who ever gonna drive this car in the future please have a look at the front left break disc. Cracks between holes are kind of "ok" but if the cracks starts from the inner to one of the middle holes, I would suggest to get a set of new discs. In general: what a stunning Collection! Thank you for showing us this!

[@joncox9098]

Wish I had a shed off cars like that. Chris’s Harris say’s it how we would. Brilliant videos. 👍

[@detonator2112]

All Porsches are amazing but those air cooled are just something else. I wish I could afford one.

[@HG504X]

Chris Harris doing tours of car collections should be a series on KZbin. Its a jackpot idea

[@sonnybadyal7767]

I really loved watching this car collection video. To the owner of this collection, nicely done!

[@ycnexu]

Man, the life's unjust. So many people want a Porsche and there's a dude who has 50 and never drives them.

[@Senna-xi1gr]

Chris Harris is without doubt the best car presenter out there. He should be on BBC 2 every week with his own show. Obviously with Johnny yes. 👍🏆🇬🇧

[@deancostello14]

Need to win the lottery this weekend to get that white 4.0 RS. I'll daily it, I don't care how few miles it's got.

I'm not a Porsche guy, although I do respect them because they're fantastic cars. I think the thing that gets me the most is that the Carrera styling through the years is just so evolutionary. They're All SO SIMILAR. The whole time Chris Harris was popping off all the different names I was thinking, "how the hell can you tell them apart?"
