Thanks for sharing. It was like a trip down memory lane for us. We started in a Morris Minor, followed by a underpowered 1300L Capri with furry seat covers that gave a nasty static electric shock everytime we got out.
wow a real trip down memory lane thanks. passed my driving test 1st time so dad got me a morris oxford for my 18th birthday. it was british racing green with grey leather seats had to sit on a cushion to see over the huge steering wheel. So wish I still owned it.
Visited here last year, amazing place, as you mentioned not as big as you may think but big enough to see the cars we remember from those era’s. I drove that white coupe Marina, it’s a 1.3 series 3. I’m waiting until they have that Maxi or the blue princess 2.2 available to drive that you saw with the “Trapezoidal” headlamps I think the shape is called. It’s a good afternoon out, nice run through the Derbyshire countryside and a good place for car meets. I noticed the ITAL wasn’t there this time, probably put away into storage, I think your right, you do see more when your not walking around with a camera/camera phone. Good vid as always mate.
Cheers, yeah there were a few “missing” but I guess they have to rotate, I must admit I’d like to drive a few of my old cars again for the memories. That said driving round at 20mph with a chaperone isn’t my ideal option 🤣
@@AgathaAndAnything Yeah I know, but you get a half hour with the car and you kinda get the basic feel of it, you only get to drive a car unsupervised if your invited by the museum personally and I think you have to have to have around 5000 subs I think, I asked them as I noticed Matt from furious driving driving a car unsupervised.
Great video.This is like a sweet shop for car enthusiasts! On a side note,does anyone know what a very nice MK3 Escort should be insured for on an agreed value policy?
The idea with the Clubman fronted mini, obviously that was a “Mini” and then a larger very similar looking “Maxi” but it all seams to have got lost somewhere… lol Ohh n the Mk3 cortina was at the side of a FD Victor (my 1st car) 😊
Ok, mgb are single stem similar and same shape , unfortunately they are only available vinyl or leather. Being Leyland they would have been a universal Leyland part as well .
love the blue princess
2.2 6 cylinder one. Very nice
Thank you for taking us that cannot get out much to these places, loved it thank you x
You’re welcome 👍

I would love to own some of my old cars too!
If I had enough money I would have that collection. As you say, many memories. . .
Yep amazing I only wish we had smell a vision!

I don’t think I’ll get 5000 on this channel!
@@AgathaAndAnything Neither will I 🤣
The hubcaps on that brown Clubman look a bit odd. You can just glimpse them. Looked sticking/bulging out.
Loved that Allegro Estate.
Yes they were….

Can’t help on the Escort other than maybe join a Facebook group and ask? Glad you liked the video I appreciate you making a comment 🙏

Gotcha, sorry I didn’t film them all!
@@AgathaAndAnything no worries, I was there day b4 Easter… 😊
Some great stuff in there. Had at least 3 Dolly sprints , adore them..
So all those cars belong there?
They do, it’s a one man collection
Lucky man
Hi Rick.regarding the headrest issue you raised for Agatha. Are they cloth ,vinyl, or leather?
Mine are cloth, a sort of velour
Ok, mgb are single stem similar and same shape , unfortunately they are only available vinyl or leather. Being Leyland they would have been a universal Leyland part as well .
