Inside One of the UK's Wildest Car Collections - Collector Chronicles

From rally heroes to modern supercars, episode three of Collector Chronicles dives into the eclectic garage of Richard Groves — entrepreneur, enthusiast, and YouTuber behind Challenge the Road. In this episode, Richard opens the doors to the collection he started back in 2013, kicking things off with the car that ignited his obsession: the Lancia Delta Integrale. What began as a teenage dream turned into a serious pursuit — a road-and-rally focused garage built on icons from Lancia, Subaru, Ford, and more. There’s no shortage of hero cars here. A fully restored WRC Subaru Impreza, a Ford Escort Cosworth in rare Petrol Blue currently being auctioned on Collecting Cars, and a genuine ex-Colin McRae rally car. But it’s not all nostalgia. Richard walks us through his track-focused Porsche 992 GT3 RS and show-stopping purple McLaren P1. As always, this series isn’t just about the cars — it’s about the people behind them. Richard’s story is one of patience, passion, and a deep-rooted love for driving. Whether it’s a GR Yaris or a Lamborghini Murcielago , his message is simple: the badge doesn’t matter, it’s all about the feeling.
