Another great video. Thanks so much. We had many British cars in Canada. My dad brought a new Minor back from Scotland in 1951 (they toured Europe in it extensively). They took it up to Elk Lake, Ontario where plugging your car in was mandatory in the dead of winter. The roads were horrendous - but it survived. When they finally moved south, my father traded it on a new Volkswagen (my mother was heartbroken). Given your rigorous inspections, I am amazed that so many of these cars survived.
Being in the NL and not being able to visit the NEC, this is a great way to have a sneak peak of this event. Thnx Steph (and Ian, and Ruste, and…. I watched them all 😂)
Great preview. For me the highlight would be the classic Japanese cars, you just see so few of them, I haven't seen one of those orange Hondas since the 70's. I will always be first and foremost a lover of British classics, but I do have an appreciation and respect for the role played by the Japanese in the automotive history of this country. As for the EV, it's interesting as a concept and without getting into all the pros and cons of electric vehicles, for me personally, electric vehicles will never hold my interest (yes I have driven some), for me the enjoyment of driving and vehicles will always be about the mechanical aspects, sounds etc. Looks like it will be a great show, wish I could be there. Have fun.
Missed you at the show yesterday, Day 1 but mum and I are here for all three days and hope to still see you, as well as Ian and Matt. Just getting ready to come for Day 2 as I write this but greatly looking forward to watching this video too. We did speak to the young gent at the Lancaster stand taking those competition photos and he mentioned he knows you. Anyhow, as always I'm the Brit Canadian wearing the Canadian flag hat, scarf and messenger bag. 🇨🇦🇬🇧
Tina looks amazing!!! You did such an incredible job with her, you should be quite proud of yourself. I wish I could be at the NEC, but given I’m in the U.S., that won’t be happening this year. Have a great show Steph! ❤️
FANTASTIC! What a show. Over here we have the typical 'custom' or 'new car' shows but nothing like this with such a variety of old and new. I agree, love to see the old stuff yet to be restored. Thanks Steph for taking us round and congrats with 'Tina'!!
Thank you for the whistle stop tour. As always there will be some interesting vehicles to see. I too love commercial vehicles lorries and vans. I think you made the point that these were the work horses of their day and many would worked until they 'dropped' to bits. The other point is of course you need somewhere to store them which is not always easy to find. So glad Tina made it and that thanks to Kev you Steph were able to drive her to the NEC because at one point we all thought she would be going on a trailer. Great stuff as usual Steph and yes send Fred to the Land Rover stand I am sure he will enjoy himself.👍👍
Thank you for showing more of the unusual cars rather than what is otherwise seen practically everywhere. Sure, I love Minis and Beetles too, but I've always been more keen on what's across the fence, so to speak. Really wish I could be there and enjoy the show meself! Thanks for uploading! Greetings from Sweden
Another great video Steph. Thrilled to see Tina got to the show, and even more thrilled to find out she was finished and you managed to drive her there! Enjoy the show.
I worked at a two bit car dealer in Idaho in the 70s. We had a 72 Honda n600 (5:30) for running parts around town. It was a blast to drive. It's hard to believe my 2006 Acura RL came from the same people. lol
Well done Steph Great to see you made the show with Tina !!! Nice to have a little preview of the show. Looking forward to seeing the reveal all the best Tim
12:52 the best 4x4 ever made. Those can go up a cliff. Maybe not a cliff but, I remember a day out years ago with those going up ridiculously steep inclines (with me in the back) and it made it. If I were to guess the gradient of the hill... over 50%. You're convinced you'll be tipped over but the Land Rover can do it, at least those old short wheelbase boxy ones can. An amazing off roader.
Hello Steph, what a great time wandering around the various stands with you, I thought the "Viva" stand was very good! To see "Tina" was wonderful, having watched the video with Kev doing his display of skills and building up your confidence too! Best wishes from Lincolnshire
You missed out the Austin A40 Farina stand, must have been an accidental cut in the edit 😉 Caught a few glimpses of Tina yesterday when setting up, she was looking good!
Hi Steph, Sadly I could not get to the NEC But Glad to see Tina There and Looking Revived. I had The Ital Version Many years ago when values hit Rock Bottom. I paid believe it or not £85 for her just to get me from Birmingham to a site in Derby for a month Whilst my Montego was repaired. Well I ran the Ital for 3 years I left the Montego at home for my wife to use ferrying the children about and back and forth to work I used the Ital for driving around collecting the guys to take them to work. Great car apart from the Gear boxes I think the 1.7 K series was too powerful for the Morris derived box But I Could swap it in about 3 and a half hours in the end, Sadly Neglect and Sheer abuse Finally Saw her end But in my opinion a very under rated car!!
Steph, I am pleased you DID make the show and with 'Tina!' I know there's been many heartbreaks along the way. However, you DID it along with your friend, Kev's help! I have now watched all the videos of the 'terrible threesome,' you, Ian and Matt. I do this with every show as you know! And it's amazing how each of you brigs out a different angle or point of view in the same show! THANK YOU so much. Take care.
A brilliant video Steph, and good to see Tina finished, you and Kev done a cracking Job on Tina. I never managed to get down in November but, will be back in March for the Resto Show.
All the cars you shown in this video are great. But to see Tina looking splendid you and Kev have done yourselves proud in such a short time from a layby to a car show in a matter of weeks am not surprised Kev needs a holiday and you a bath and chill. Hope it goes well for the trio.
Great Video Steph. I would love to get down but unfortunately I cannot at the moment so these videos are important, I think my lot the GCCC are there. I would like to see the Triumph name resurrected. WOW Tina is impressive well done both you and Kev, she looks an entirely different car now.
Great video. I like the personal selection, it was much less rushed. When you interview people can we please look at the vehicle they are talking about?
thank you for posing for photo with me yesterday 11th nov 23 hope you like the lil pressiei left you see you next year i will give you and hubnut and matt furious driving on my youtube channel
I missed the show this year , but thanks for sharing , this is fabulous. I'm so pleased you managed to get Tina the marina ready . I really love your cars , I have a 1994 fiat cinquecento and have a very rare fiat uno 1.7 Diesel you are always welcome to come and drive them for your videos , keep up them amazing videos that you do . Take care Steph ,
Enjoyable vlog as always Steph Tina looks fantastic you’re hard work looks to have paid off liking the TR concept car 🤞 bmw put it into production keep the vlogs coming all the best….
That TR concept car is an interesting idea, and there are a lot of impressive cars at the show based on what I'm seeing here. But it's going to take a really brave person with some deep pockets to restore that BMW 2002 and that other old car. I'd love to know the background story to those two cars. And congrats on Tina, she's really looking great and I see Matt got the 200 sorted as well.
Hi, I really enjoy your videos,on your nec video you introduced some American cars that had something to do with a ladies group ? I want to find out more about the mercury comet ,any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ken
Hi Steph #idriveaclassic . Do you still have your Metro? I was walking around the NEC on Saturday and came across your stand. You wasn't there to chat with. Later on you looked a little busy so I didnt bother you. I'm not sure that you'd remember me but you reviewed my Ford Escort Cabrio in Blue a few years back. I'm glad to see you're doing well. I'll look out for you next year.
What talk on the Triumph concept car ? Is it a one man car or can it take passengers ? Is it a convertible ? How does one get in to it Where are the seat belts ? A lot of questions that should have been asked or explained .🙃
Steph is herself, as usual and I think most of us love her as such!. Many thanks for your lovely video and look forward to the one about Tina´s restoration.
Without dedicated restorers we would have nothing to look at.
Great to see it finished in time. Well done on meeting your target.... see there was no need to cry. Enjoy your weekend Steph.
Another great video. Thanks so much. We had many British cars in Canada. My dad brought a new Minor back from Scotland in 1951 (they toured Europe in it extensively).

I used to own an orange Honda Z360, similar to the one shown here, now a very rare car anywhere. Great to one has survived!😊
Wow, that's like a walk through my 1970s childhood!
That Triumph TR25 is really well done. Nice work fellas!
Great preview.
For me the highlight would be the classic Japanese cars, you just see so few of them, I haven't seen one of those orange Hondas since the 70's.

Great show and really good to see the British flags flying. Good luck to all who keep these historical vehicles alive.
A great show, it was so nice to meet and chat. I even bought a sticker that is now on my guitar case. I like to wear a cloth cap and tweed jacket.
I hoped that I'd see Tina, the Marina here (or perhaps your Morris Minor) at this show! Simply wonderful to see her and you there at the NEC. Aloha!
Thank you for the whistle stop tour. As always there will be some interesting vehicles to see. I too love commercial vehicles lorries and vans.

Nice to see so many Viva's and in lovely condition❤ Great show and great video!
Another great video Steph. Thrilled to see Tina got to the show, and even more thrilled to find out she was finished and you managed to drive her there! Enjoy the show.
Well done with Tina Marina! She is beautiful!
All those 70's cars!! Nice one Steph so pleased to see the Marina there 👍👍
Another great video always brings a smile to see your enthusiasm and admire your presentation skills
Looks like a fun show. As always, a good walk through and presentation.
Wow! Tina looks great! Well done Steph and Kev!!
Wow, seeing how Tina turned out makes me regret even more that I can't make it. Enjoy the show and I'll be enjoying your videos.
That TR25 concept is great piece of design.
I worked at a two bit car dealer in Idaho in the 70s. We had a 72 Honda n600 (5:30) for running parts around town. It was a blast to drive. It's hard to believe my 2006 Acura RL came from the same people. lol

Great to see you made the show with Tina !!!
Nice to have a little preview of the show. Looking forward to seeing the reveal

love how TINA turned out, kudos to you and Kevin!!!

Great to see Tina made it to the show. 👍
I look forward to seeing her at the NEC tomorrow (Sat). 😎
I noticed in Ian's video that Steph has painted the boot as well.

Wow red TR6 in the background
You missed out the Austin A40 Farina stand, must have been an accidental cut in the edit 😉 Caught a few glimpses of Tina yesterday when setting up, she was looking good!
Great video and I will be there tomorrow and hope to say hi 👋

Kev’s clearly a great fella! Good work. Nice to see you got Tina there!
Great to see the Marina at the show! 👍
Great to see Tina there. Well done Steph. and Kev. and Freddy. Another one saved. 👍👍👍

Tina looks smart, love the black bonnet nod back to the Avenger Tiger.
Great review, and what a good job on the Viva. look forward to the launch video. Have a good show at the NEC Bob
A brilliant video Steph, and good to see Tina finished, you and Kev done a cracking Job on Tina. I never managed to get down in November but, will be back in March for the Resto Show.
Tina is looking good and l like the flat black bonnet looks like it will be a great show
Honda 600 would have been nice to see the engine
It’s so nice to see that Tina made it there. She’s beautiful, congratulations!
All the cars you shown in this video are great. But to see Tina looking splendid you and Kev have done yourselves proud in such a short time from a layby to a car show in a matter of weeks am not surprised Kev needs a holiday and you a bath and chill. Hope it goes well for the trio.
awesome steph great preview
The Mercury ratrod is lovely.
Great work on Tina!
The Marina looks amazing!
Wow, Tina looks great! Thanks for the video!
Aaaaw the bus @ 2:33 😍😍🥰
Great show preview and WOW Tina!!! Kev is so awesome, can I adopt him?
'Tina? OMG - how fabulous. Svelte and finessed. Hurrah!! Congrats to you both, but Kev? What a star!
PS: Have you got a look at the new Caterham (?) electric - now, that is tradition brought up to a very glamorous now.
Tina looks amazing and to get it done for to the NEC. I will look her over tomorrow.
Great Video Steph. I would love to get down but unfortunately I cannot at the moment so these videos are important, I think my lot the GCCC are there. I would like to see the Triumph name resurrected. WOW Tina is impressive well done both you and Kev, she looks an entirely different car now.
Well done Steph.
Really enjoyed and appreciated that Steph, thanks for sharing. Hope the rest of the show goes well 😊👍
Awesome. 🙂🙂
What a lovely walk down memory lane.....a must view for anyone who has a passion about cars 😂😂😂😂
Great video. I like the personal selection, it was much less rushed. When you interview people can we please look at the vehicle they are talking about?
Loved your video, many thanks
So glad Tina made it! Hope she gets lots of visitors! Wish I could be there. Maybe next year?!
Hi Steph love ur video and now making arrangements to go new nxt year, what women club did you say were good to join ? Plz
Remembrance is not for celebration but commemoration and contemplation
My old man's there with his rat rod Morris minor 👍
Gutted I always forget about this show haven’t been in years , next year for definite
thank you for posing for photo with me yesterday 11th nov 23 hope you like the lil pressiei left you see you next year i will give you and hubnut and matt furious driving on my youtube channel
I missed the show this year , but thanks for sharing , this is fabulous. I'm so pleased you managed to get Tina the marina ready . I really love your cars , I have a 1994 fiat cinquecento and have a very rare fiat uno 1.7 Diesel you are always welcome to come and drive them for your videos , keep up them amazing videos that you do . Take care Steph ,
Enjoyable vlog as always Steph Tina looks fantastic you’re hard work looks to have paid off liking the TR concept car 🤞 bmw put it into production keep the vlogs coming all the best….
Tina looks really excellent, great job!
the green Honda Coupe was very nice. it was stated it was air cooled.
how come I saw a radiator under the bonnet?
The camera was on the wrong car. The 600cc cars are aircooled. The S800 is watercooled.
That TR concept car is an interesting idea, and there are a lot of impressive cars at the show based on what I'm seeing here. But it's going to take a really brave person with some deep pockets to restore that BMW 2002 and that other old car. I'd love to know the background story to those two cars. And congrats on Tina, she's really looking great and I see Matt got the 200 sorted as well.
Just noticed you've reached 50k! Well done!
Tina the Marina is the show stopper for me. Look forward to more reveal and drive
Well done , you do our country proud Steph .
Well Done! Best of luck!
Kane from Malta.
Thank you Steph, really interesting. Just one thing, your guests sounded louder than you, was your mic not working properly?
Hi, I really enjoy your videos,on your nec video you introduced some American cars that had something to do with a ladies group ? I want to find out more about the mercury comet ,any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Ken
13:57 Did that car used to belong to Stirling Moss? 😂
Tina is best in show , because of Steph ...
Hi Steph #idriveaclassic .
Do you still have your Metro?
I was walking around the NEC on Saturday and came across your stand.
You wasn't there to chat with.
Later on you looked a little busy so I didnt bother you.
I'm not sure that you'd remember me but you reviewed my Ford Escort Cabrio in Blue a few years back.
I'm glad to see you're doing well.
I'll look out for you next year.
See you tomorrow!
What talk on the Triumph concept car ? Is it a one man car or can it take passengers ? Is it a convertible ? How does one get in to it Where are the seat belts ? A lot of questions that should have been asked or explained .🙃
It’s a clay model so you can’t get into it yet, it doesn’t have belts and it is indeed a convertible.
you have to rally up Tina!!🙂
The very fact there is a mk2 ford granada herse that didnt end up on a banger oval is incredible in itself.
yes agreed and or painted in flames.
Great video.pleased tina looking good .and good to see your emotion steph as your passionate about cars .x
"Tell Us about this Orange car" 😂😂😂 ... SACK the camera man ... 😄 .....
whats a world cup rally ?
So did you drive the Marina there?
anything Fiat 131?
I think she needs some lessons in how to dress herself 😅😅
Steph is herself, as usual and I think most of us love her as such!. Many thanks for your lovely video and look forward to the one about Tina´s restoration.
Curious, why is everyone wearing a HiViz vest?
I'm guessing it's a weird UK safety womble thing yea?
Or a venue thing.
Looks like it's set up day with stands being assembled so probably a site requirement .
I think when everybody, apart from Steph, thank you, wears a vest, it quite looses its effect, everything is just a reflexive chaos.
