History
Cars 2
In Cars 2, he is seen when Mater is messing with him, trying to get him to move, which he doesn't know that guards at Buckingham Palace don't respond to the public. McQueen tells Mater that they should go, as it was time for him to get knighted by the Queen. After the door to the knighting room opens, and McQueen and Mater enter, Highgear and another guard then turn round and do a march stomp.
