Hope the manufacturers and suppliers are taking note of the standards of their parts that carry their name and brand. If they cut costs, then there's a price to pay in their reputation. All very well using 3rd parties and charging OEM prices but if the parts aren't up to scratch..

Hi Harry, happy new year. Great fan and all that. Wanted to say that I'd been fighting to get my XJS V12 working right for the last 8 years with all the issues and many more that you have been experiencing. I also bought the AJ6 modifications including the exhaust and have also had it converted to manual. However no matter what I did, one or more cylinders would stop working. Bought new injectors, fuel regulators, all the sensors, plugs, ignition wires, distributor, ignition amplifier, coils, etc... and the list goes on and on. I've recently bought a very interesting system from a chap in Norway, who sells a kit to convert the car to a modern ECU system which also removes the need for the ignition distributor and all the vacuum pipes. All I can say is WOW!! I recommend you do a search for Mobeck Tekniske Jaguar V12 efi kit, in the case you have problems again. I'm not affiliated in any way with these guys. All I can say is that I can now balance a very thin coin on one side of the engine intake and it doesn't fall down!!!! By the way I'm based in Pakistan and I have the only V12 XJS coupe in the whole country!!!

Poor replacement parts is a shoddy situation as I bet the prices are premium. Thanks, Harry, for so many excellent Sunday evenings and I look forward to seeing 600k subscribers and future uploads. To you and Mrs M, have a great 2023.

The Lancia Fulvia Zagato was definitely a high point for me. I consider the videos capturing all of the work that went into this little car to be among the best content I've seen on KZbin. I'm not even a Lancia fan per se, yet I've become very enamored with this car in terms of what it represents to Harry personally as well as it being representative of all the individuals that worked on restoring it. Once again, I tip my cap to all involved.

Happy New Year, all! I so feel Harry's pain. On the "slightly" cheaper end of the classic car spectrum: I ran a MGB GT for a few years as a daily. The issue with "new" parts that just weren't up to any standard is so (!) familiar + to frustration from having a just refreshed car play up yet again. Good job Harry's got a few alternative cars to use - for me it was start spannering on a Friday, have it back together and running on Monday morning :-)

I managed to rebuild the clutch slave cylinder, but due to shoddy new rubber parts I did that twice in my 5 years with the car. Then there were the Armstrong-style dampers on the front... They were basically a routine service item, each time being replaced with refurbished items - until I upgraded to coils ...

A great summary video of the year, back in about 1988/89 I had a 1984 Jaguar 4.2 Sovereign ( my first Jaguar, I am now on my 11th ) I also had issues with the fuel tank change over valves, similar to you , the first I knew was a car following me on a motorway kept flashing their lights for me to pull over, when I did he told me my N/S tank was overflowing and spraying his car with a spray of fuel, I then had to make sure I used the N/S tank first as the O/S tank used to pump into it ! A short while later we got the valve renewed and all good after that. Love your collection and find the videos very informative , thank you so much.

Couldn’t agree more…as a petrolhead I own 2 performance cars but have 1000 mile limits on both each year. Companies lie about range even on the adverts when you read the small print at the bottom of the screen. Poor infrastructure is another government failure… and don’t be naive to think EV owners won’t be charged in the near future to get some revenue back to the government. Keep it coming Harry…you are perfectly placed and knowledgeable to be able to give a sensible view of things👍👍

Loved the channel a real pleasure to watch, many thanks for taking the time, also thanks to your son and Mrs for holding the camera. 1) The Jag I would be really annoyed with, I remember the guy that built the engine had loads of V12 engines and XJ-S cars in the workshop and he said we can do this and we can do that. I would have sent the Jag back saying, " Well you can get this running as it should". Surely the amount of experience in that workshop there must some knowledge of injectors. I remember they talked you into having some new ignition system. Back in the day the twin tank system was never a problem other than wear and tear. All subjective, but in my view the XJ Coupe sits too low and has a ruined stance, in my opinion it looks like a 10 year old, 100,000 miler with saging suspension. 2) This may or may not help but Lucas were an importer for Magneti marelli during the time your Espada was built, maybe some old Lucas dealer may have some original parts lying around. 3) The Lamborghini gearbox, this would drive me nuts. It is like a weeping sore without a plaster. In summarization you have shown that these old cars are a labour of love and hassle, a bit like a boat, a constant money drain. You are lucky you are someone who has a plethora of toys to choose from, if you were on a budget with either the Jag, or either Lambo, and they were all you had, you would soon out them. I believe the issue with these so called supercars is they were not that good to begin with so they did not sell many. So, the knowledge is scarce. All those mechanics that worked on Ferraris where I worked are now dead, all the knowledge died with them. If I was to have a 1970's classic I would have either a Jensen Interceptor, any TR or MG. The reason being is there is still so much knowledge and exellent parts supply around these cars, after all, what good is a car that does not move. All of you have a Happy and Healthy 2023.

You learn so much about vintage car restoration, car ownership, as well as from the new car reviews watching Harry. Thanks for all the joy and fun of ‘22. Surprising was parts replacement from Jaguar and Lambo that proved faulty! Are they really making these parts in China? Harry should claim compensation for the damage and extra expense caused after the fitting of these genuine faulty parts! Many of us never know the root cause of why our car components sometimes fail but Harry always has a fascinating answer from the brilliant people he uses to service and rebuild his cars. The coolant hose issue on the Jag Project 8 was illuminating. Look forward to the Countach and many other car reviews in ‘23 from my favourite You Tube car guy - HM.

Great round up of the reality of owning and maintaining classics Harry. So frustrating that even when ordering what appear to be the correct parts they still aren't right for the job. I love the XJ-C but it reminds me very well why I sold my 4.2L Series 2 Daimler Sovereign, as no matter how much time and money I spent on it, there was always something going wrong. I like to use my cars and once the trust in them has gone, I have to let them go. Without tempting fate, 14 years of Capri 2.8 injection ownership has been mechanically very straightforward and it's been amazingly reliable for a 40 year old car. Obviously far less complex and exotic than most of your collection so perhaps not a fair comparison. Thanks for all the quality films this year of some amazing cars and road trips.

Thank you, Harry. Your Harry's Garage channel is one of my absolute favourites and thank you for the introduction to Iain Tyrrell. I feel your pain and frustration when it comes to ordering replacement parts and getting less than acceptable performance from the parts organization. That was a very mild rant. Sometimes really good things can happen. I had a brilliant experience a few years ago, Feb 2016, with my (moderately warmed up) Saab 2.8 V6 manual 9-3 aero. The air conditioning compressor died. The Saab specialist servicing company that I trust is 1,100 km away and I couldn't drive to them at the time to get the work done. The genuine Saab part was over $3,000, but there was an OEM part for around $600 that they use. They didn't have one in stock, but they gave me the ebay link to the part. I checked it out and ordered. I got an email from the American company asking for my VIN because it was a different market and they wanted to make sure that it was the correct part for my car. They could have just sold it to me and not bothered about whether or not it fitted. But they checked to make sure. It was the right part. I call that good service. It ended up costing $650 delivered. Swedish Prestige/Melbourne European here in Australia and BuyAutoParts.com in the USA both get a big tick of approval from me.

I love how open Harry is with the costs of the garage... helps a pleb like me work out what could potentially go wrong with owning older cars! Question is... where is the convertible blue Mercedes SL?

All the best for 2023, Harry. Your weekly videos are a highlight for me every Sunday. I don’t know how you do it. Glad to hear you’re doing Sandraiders again as the video of that was fantastic. But for me both the road trips and the restoration videos are most enjoyable. I find your farm channel absolutely fascinating as well.

Hi Harry, I love these end of year round up videos. It would be a great addition to summarise the overall spend and income at the end. Also interesting to see how it compares to previous years. That could be a video in itself!

I started watching Harry because of EVO and admired his selection of cars especially the XJ12, then loved his breakdown of running costs; through that loved the Lancia, then more; his resilience to the slings and arrows of costs; the business machinations involved in earning to cover the costs! After all that the Lotus is a relief and looking forward to seeing more running of the XJ12, Stamina!
