Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evo I - One Take 

Ross Miller i know the royal blue one on grand turismo lol

Yeah dude, first car I've bought since Forza 3.

Ross Miller lmao i JUST got my rally spec in forza horizon 3 a few hours ago.

TDU2! First car

Ross Miller so..so I bought it so...so it sooo., so old school so and so...

Namesi Finnish*

@@antti4125 Lancia is Italian

@@nostrodelaantares8416 Obviously, but driven by Finnish drivers. Toivonen, Alen, Kankkunen etc.

@@antti4125 you forgot the italian pilots

@@antti4125 Say hi to Miki Biasion

Yep, I saw Lancia and clicked. Love the hell out of all of these group B holomogation beauty's.

Jay Morrison Oh yeah, any homologation car is guaranteed to be awesome.

not group B, group A. And dominated at that. Group B Lancias were not successful, it was all Audi and Peugeot.

Both of which were down to timing as much as anything else. There's not a lot to say that the Lancia Delta wouldn't have been able to compete with the 205 given a little more time. Pretty sure Audi were only successful due to being the first to do 4WD. By the time anyone else caught up, they leap frogged them because they went mid mounted engine, which Audi refused to do. Perhaps it's valiant to stick to being more like road cars, but you're doing well if you beat a mid engined rally car with a front engined one!

saratov99 the S4 was much more successful than both the Quattro and the T16 in the end, but unfortunately was just way too dangerous

i feel that

100% agree.

just found out about this and now i need one

It's like those people that say: "huh.. it's not an evo dude...." cringe

i'd have almost any old car over a corresponding equivalent modern car

Dream car.

And it can be a daily driver no problem .. what's more fun than a proved Rally for streets ?

revenge for S4 not winning shit, but being the best monster of the GroupB

If the FIA had not removed their San Remo points, Lancia and the S4 would have won the 1986 championship. So victories plenty...

@@nedboase7909 This car has won 46 times and 6 constructors championships in a row.

It's a VW polo . So you are lying

@@nedboase7909 the delta hf4wd through to integrale /evo are essentially the same car... 46 championship wins.... 6 championships consecutively.... the polo has won 6 years in a row?

happens all the time. Canada is easy to import to, we have only a 15 year grey market rule, and Japan has the best used LHD Italian cars on the planet.

David Ha its easier to import cars from Japan. Getting answers and getting all the paperwork done correctly from a European importer is a pain in the ass. Meanwhile in Japan there are dozens of professionals inporters to help you.

David Ha but that dosent make sense it was LHD if it was a jdm market car it should be RHD

Ryan Rohauer I know it doesn't make sense, but they love LHD cars. Perhaps it adds to the exotic nature of the car, but *all* the Italian cars I have looked at importing have been LHD. Perhaps a Japanese member can explain.

ChaosphereIX The Lancia Delta Intergrale were made ONLY in left hand drive configuration that's why even the models in Japan,England and even Ireland are all left hand drive. Lancia had to sell 400 of these in order to compete in the WRC so they were never built with the intention of mass production in mind,it was simply to get them into the championship and nothing more.The car proved to be in demand and after Lancia's wins in the WRC and as a result I think over 40,000 of them were built(including the lower spec HF) Why they kept it left hand drive God knows but I'd imagine it had something to do with that crazy(a screwa them)Italian way and or the extra cost of making them right hand drive wasn't worth it. As for the Japanese having left hand drive cars it's actually seen as a status symbol there,someone driving a left hand drive car in Japan is seen as successful and their car is seen to be exotic as a result. Hell I've even seen Japanese people walk into a Toyota dealer in Japan and order their brand new Glanza V in left hand drive,a car built only for Japan so never designed to be anything other than right hand drive were being sold as left hand drives for absolutely no genuine reason whatsoever other than to be seen as successful. So for any Americans reading this look long and hard on the JDM auction websites such as TradeCarView etc,your dream JDM car can actually be bought with left hand drive.They're rare but their there.

originaldelta this thing has character!

originaldelta I was with you till M3

Almost any M3 out there is like half the price of this or will be half the price of this car in a few years.

It isn't about price. It's about rarity. A Lancia Delta (any of them) are more rare in the US than a M3 and that's what will keep this car's price higher. Very few M3's are as rare as this car.

m3 is another league...lancia is an awesome classic as well...just think that the m3 is even more legendary...its N/A, its faster its 6 cylinder and the motor is stronger

Same here man.

second this.

And after seeing it, changed it to dislike, because of the video resolution.( maybe they had compression issues)

the whole thing is good

Yup.

*envious

*peanut butter

TWIRKNOLOVE *lube

oh hi, it's you

Roads Untraveled Lol I know right?

MORE NERD CARS PLEASE

ChrisPy96 Dude I can't believe you're taking his comment that serious. I doubt he meant it in a deragatory way. Sometimes the word 'nerd' is not in a negative context. I think he means that it's not your average 'sleek fast car'. It looks more like a 16 year olds first car from back in the 80's or something. In other words, it's somewhat of a sleeper. (faster than it looks)

calling a car that basically made WRC what it is today a "nerd car" somehow doesn't give it justice.

You sir, you have exquisite taste... Well done sir, really well done.

For me 405 T-16 and Lancia 037

Can't argue with that.

get out of my head Man!

Don't believe you.

At least i like your profile picture very much :-)

51ncc It all adds to the charm. I normally can't stand Italian cars, but those box flares make me go weak at the knees.

Zerofightervi my evo2 sunroof likes to open...not so much close...but I forgive him every time.

Zerofightervi Someone once described the rattling of the interior to the noise an old cassette tape makes when you hold it up to your ear and shake it!

energymc22 a guy I know used to run a little garage out of a industrial unit, doing typical mechanic jobs, he changed my brake discs & pads on my Evo IV & at a very reasonable rate too. Then someone brought in a Lancia Delta Integrale, it needed a new water pump, 8 hours later it was done, 8 hours labour for a water pump. Not long after that he decided to close his little business, maybe it wasn't doing too well, maybe the rent went up, I'd like to think it was fear, fear of anyone every bringing in another Lancia Delta for him to do routine maintenance on.

Yay it's awesome when the car owners join in on the comments!

Andre G this and the Mazda 323 gtx.

dont defile this car with comparing it to a piece of shit

Dondonian i never mentioned your car

Andre G but I own an STI

Dondonian shouldve worn protection

a lot of engines sound unexpectedly good with a straight pipe, it's mostly illegal everywhere so it's uncommon on a street car

:fax: i know all about that my cars been straight piped for years. and not in my opinion they usually just sound farty to me

Put a decent resonator on it and you'll get rid of any raspy, farting tone. Think of an exhaust like a trumpet, the expanded shape from a resonator helps it, well...resonate lol

you need to listen to subie's and mazdaspeeds (with exhaust mods). they have a similar sound. i can only assume that thw Lancia has an unequal length header setup. thats a key component to that 'subie rumble' sound.

Yes it has a very unequal length exhaust manifold, a bit like an old Saab 900.

FIAT got over-extended... they had just about the resources to develop cars for one upmarket brand and, when they acquired Alfa Romeo, FIAT ended up with two that in many ways overlapped. So they decided that Lancia had to go back to its roots as Luxury maker, and leave the sporty side to Alfa Romeo. This in the end became costly trimmed-up FIAT for Lancia, while Alfa got a little more freedom in the chassis department (the only saving grace of Alfas having always been that they were fun to drive and that, alas, cannot be achieved simply with a nicer front fascia). Unfortunately, you can sell crap to people only for a while...though it may take years, sometime, before the average buyer realises it (... see Volkswagen in Europe now... )

I know, I know . Having been born and lived there most of my life, I still follow the old country, so I know that VW is still perceived as quite a good brand there, even while the reliability data - at least in other markets - are abysmal, and the driving quality is often Toyotesque (and I do not mean Supra, Celica 4WD or Initial D's AE86 - like).

People take at least one car generation, to see that a marque has dropped the ball (or, conversely, that is doing better). Mercedes is on a downward spiral from the W210 onward (though the W212 E class are a nice pull back to better times, the various FWD are a disgrace), BMW does its usual job (.. a 3 cylinders on a series 3... ) and Volkswagen is overextended and fucked up brutally with the dieselgate (essentially killing the diesel passenger car in the USA, among other things). I am not sure about Toyota - its expansion has brought on models assembled outside Japan with less than stellar build quality, and the unintended acceleration case showed that their software R&D was atrocious. Honda is doing its cars, but has lost some footing on the technical side because it had to divert quite a bit of funds to rebuild factories that were almost destroyed during the earthquake that also destroyed Fukujima. Mazda is doing better than usual, and I am told that also the duo Kia-Hiundai (they are part of the same group and share parts and R&D) is on a roll. Anyway, if I can afford it, I hope some day to buy a Giulia. Reliability is nice, but an Alfa is an Alfa.

Well, to be honest Lancia weren't that good at making cars that sell to regular consumers. You know - sensible, reliable, fairly priced. I absolutely love Lancia, just like many enthusiasts around the world. But you can't deny it's easy to see why in general public didn't find the brand attractive enough to buy their cars. Every Lancia that's been great was exorbitantly expensive or just rare. Their complete madness and ingenuity produced some of the best racing monsters world has ever seen, but it didn't always translate well to their road cars.

"Videotaping." Fits the era the car is from.

Those nerds are afraid of change

lol I think he will have to go to UK for that .That's like trying to find a Celica ST4 turbo in America. I seen on a escort cos replicas all the time but the engine is not the 2.5 its the crappy zetec.

Hezbollah1991 do you mean a GT4/All-trac? They're not too bad to find.

I've only seen one Escort RS Cosworth in the flesh, at a drift event at Sonoma Raceway a few years ago. Wish I knew who owned it.

GT4 go for nothing over here now but intergrales and escy cossie's are just on the up and up

Cossie had 2l engine, just different one.

i saw one in my hometown in martini livery)

Yea, because French 4 cylinders don't sound good. Or Japanese ones. This one doesn't even sound that good as far as 4 cylinders go.

derbigpr500 dude it sounds awesome

Ac3f French 4 bangers are trash 😂

mk 2 escort with a millington engine sounds better

o0RAGA0o no 🤣

I just ordered one. LOL.

Japans too, bitch.

@@zaebaniyunderground6260 Yeah, like Civics.. lmfao dude you fucking kid

@@zaebaniyunderground6260 stronzo

Review Guy yes I would love to see Matt fit in a Stratos 😁

i'm pretty sure he was still grinning 2 hours later ^^

I understand why he said" i was afraid it wouldn't be as good as i hoped" so many 80-90s cars fit that bill. (source: drove a diablo, its was a great experience, but a awful car)

What's worse, the day after driving a Diablo or the day after leg day?

It's Godzilla with good hair in a tailored suit, sipping an expresso.

iTheGeek No, absolutely not.

Legio XXI Rapax the s4 was quoted to have 480bhp

Stratos is fast as hell too, ever seen one on a hillclimb?

ChaosphereIX delta too, it's the legend of '90s/'80s rally.

Alex Missio that was my point, agreed

Don't forget the 037

11094DEREK never do, my second fav Lancia actually. Amazing machine.

I would be too if it was my baby that you basically can't get replacement panels for, or windshields, or some structural parts. Not like you can go down the road and get new parts [except a lucky find with an oil cap heh]

51ncc agreed, the Italian cars respond better the more you thrash them. Meant to be driven hard, and they reward you for it. Matt knows those roads very, very well but still I would be puckered!

The not cheap . start at $80000 in Australia because the super rare

Ben Chesterman Au prices are stupid though, crazy inflated. Look at the Japanese auction sites, and then calculate to NA. Not bad, could be had for around $30k if you look hard enough.

Dude's right, the price of these things have gone up about 300% in the last five years.
