The original 1963 journey from London to Bath is brilliant, I've watched it at least a dozen times, I'll watch it again tonight, I'm fully addicted to it.
Brilliant drive, thanks so much for this lovely trip. George did this and this was just as wonderful to be able to go so far and to garp about rather than drive. Music was good as well as in George's film and how the roads have changed in places but to be expected probably, and no cretinous drivers either! Great video.
It is worth seeking out the full version of the original 1963 film. The journey actually starts in central London, and follows the A4 from it's start all the way through Kensington, Hammersmith, Chiswick etc before joining the Great West Road at about Osterley. Why the short (edited) version starts at the top of Lampton Road in Hounslow (off the A4) is a bit of a mystery. Perhaps there was a diversion in place on the day that it was filmed. Thank you for this recreation of the original. Every time I watch it I wonder how it would look today. Now I know! I think that the full version has been downloaded onto UA-cam by maxustaxus. Well worth a nostalgic wallow.
There is a section with Poplar trees on the A4 which is from Hare Hatch to the Twyford roundabout. The trees were removed due to drivers hitting them. Another section after going through the centre of Reading is where Langley Hill joins the A4 and what is now the Sava Centre roundabout now traffic lights just before entering Theale. Thank you so much for doing this as it brought back many memories of the old and new. My wife does get fed up of me continually pointing out where old roads used to go. Happy Days.
What a fantastic recreation of a historic video. Thank you very much sir. A pity it wasn't the engine and exhaust note of that Mk2. On a separate note, on the original, I believe nearly every car other than the Isetta was a British car, how much things have changed as in this video barely 1 in 10 of the cars on the road were made or assembled in Britain.
Those provincial towns look so worn and dusty from 60 years of high volume hydro-carbon powered road traffic. Let's hope, as anticipated, that the electric revolution improves the quality of those poor buggers lives.
I loved the 1963 film, this new version is fantastic. What I really notice is the staggering increase in signs, markings etc.....the driver in 1963 was not bombarded with this volume of information...Great video, thanks a lot.
Rode in my Dads blue Mk2 in the 1960s from Shropshire to Sussex Air Force Base. He did same journey once with my sister in just over an hour and a half . .
Absolutely loved every second of it you wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve watched the original version and I can’t believe I missed your upload until now
Nowt changed in Honslow, I remember that junction and round about, and the dual carriageway and that's from 50 odd years ago. Lovely to see its all still there.
Great video 👍🏻 I saw the original a little while ago, but just found yours. What a difference, once you could spot the different car makes, now unfortunately, their all McCars, everyone the same. How boring we have become. One good thing, they got rid of the dreaded third lane.
What a lovely thing to do! I loved the original and it’s good to see you added subtitles,in the style and accent of original manner. It is mildly reassuring to see that there’s still a lot of England that escaped bulldozing and the erection of those Ryvita towers, that imbricate much of our land, albeit this being a rather rarified route. Many thanks.
I watched the original, lovely to see your version. I am doing the NC 500 in April albeit in a 2006 Jaguar S Type but very much looking forward to my road trip. Cheers Jonathan and may you have many more years of enjoyment with your Jaguar .
Wonderful. BTW I refilmed the original 16mm footage tonight in the hope that it would look a bit better than my current version. A scene by scene comparison film would be best if possible!
Wonderful!!...i had two tabs open, one on George Eyles trip and one on yours...such a wonderful trip to make...i enjoyed every single mile of it Sir....Thank you...(and such a beautiful Jag too)
Very interesting driver after seeing the 1963 one. The Go Pro image stabilization produced amazingly steady video, but from the look of the bonnet emblem going up and down all the time, the old roads have suffered from the traffic over the years..
Great video, Jonathan. But what I'd like to see is a side by side version! I'd do it myself but I'm too thick. Oh, and I'd like to see this journey undertaken in 1930 as well!
Can’t fault the effort, but there hasn’t been an attempt to show the same sections of road; massive and sudden jump from Thatcham to Hungerford, for instance.
Very cool. I just found the 1963 original and immediately wondered if anyone had made a recreation... and there you were. Didn't see any vintage cars but a nice little 1960's caravan on the big roundabout at Marlborogh (though it may have been a Cheltenham Fawn but no door on RHS, so a European equivalent I guess). Cool vid through. Amazing how little it's changed aside from a couple of road layouts. P.S: hope you remembered to always keep hands at ten to two and avoid those over-revs with the double de-clutch!
Pretty sure, instead of turning off at junction 6 and going through the west end of Slough, he carries on to junction 9 -- now 9A of the A404(M), the Thicket Roundabout -- and turns left onto the A4 for Reading.
Not a criticism of the lovely Jag, but I'm getting 80mph at a touch over 2000rpm in top in my modernish (5 years old) car. Great video, as is the original.
Sad isn't it. I'm afraid that is the entire scenery of England. I'm from Windsor, and the surrounding towns are full of Opticians, One pound shop's, shop's you can sell your personal belongings when your hard up and mobile phone repair people.
Loved the mk 2 ever since I was a young boy, Not a big fan of modern driving, or indeed modern living, much prefer life in the 60's when these cars seemed to be everywhere,
Driving on the left hand lane is a bit of novelty in the UK. Not many people realise unless they do an advanced driving course, that the left hand lane is the Driving Lane NOT the Slow Lane. The middle and outer lanes are for overtaking only and there is no such thing as the Fast Lane. The left lane is the safest place to be, apart from when they open up the hard shoulder as a "Smart" motorway extra lane. Incredibly dangerous, and a really stupid idea. The reason why many continental motorways only have two lanes is because they have lane discipline, and drivers get fined heavily for hogging the outside lane. If we had such a system of lane discipline we wouldn't need extra lanes or "Smart" motorways. We also need more George Eyles-type instructors to tell it like it is.
You have to balance that idealistic point of view in the HC and "Roadcraft" with the practical fact that if you move over into Lane 1, some joker will overtake you and then sit alongside you, preventing you ovetaking the slow lorry ahead which you had seen and assessed and planned to overtake once you got a bit closer to it (having moved briefly into Lane 1 to avoid staying in Lane 2 for too long). i tend to stay in Lane 2 when I can see lots of slower HGVs in Lane 1, if I think I can get past all of them within (for example) 15 seconds. If I'm in Lane 2, approaching an HGV in Lane 1, and I see a car behind the HGV, I anticipate that he is probably itching to overtake so I will either hang back and flash him (because a postive signal of my itent to do so is better than leaving him wondering "is he / isn't he") or else speed up slightly to get past and create a gap behind me into which he can pull out. Sometimes, if Lane 3 is clear, I will move into that lane so Lane 2 is clear for the car to accelerate from a slower speed without making me slow down for him. That sends a very clear signal "I'm letting you pull out" ;-)
Interesting, but I want to hear the Jag not that awful music. Thank you for making and uploading as a biker I would feel safe sharing the road with you👍
Was the 1963 film also yours? Love these!! Amazed how you managed to get so little traffic, especially along the Bath Road.... beautiful Jag by the way. ❤
Note number of traffic layout changes in Bath since 1963. When in '63 original clip lector says: "now coming into outskirts of Bath" he is actually very central on Lower Borough Walls (then two way traffic, today just inboud towards Stall st and closed off 10-18 by a bollard at Lamb and Lion pub). Also when on High St facing Bath Abbey he drives down passig Bridge St (following Izetta...), straight to Orange Gorve, today High St is obviously one way with bus gate , only way is to go round to the left Bridge St, than right to Grand Parade (if you went straight to Pulteney Bridge you pay 60 quid fine, another bus gate there) and right again to Orange Grove.
@@richardrichardw9520 I feel for you, bus Gates on High st and Pulteney bridge have been in place for Long as far as I know, but as we speak they make it eden more chaotic by closing off Milsom st hrs 10-18 (Social distancing nonesense) and also this week closing whole Queen Square for roadworks
Yes, when watching George's version it took a while to realise he was on Lower Borough Walls. Then a moment later he was on Walcot Street, passing the cattle market. Interesting route!
At least it wasn’t raining going through Calne. Blimey haven’t been through Chippenham since it changed the road system, no wonder everyone uses the by pass.
Great to find this after watching the 1963 one, but I had to laugh almost as soon as you set off - the lane discipline in Greater London is something to behold. Is the inside lane taxed or something?
Indeed, the driving standard is indicative of the immigrant population across the country today. The inside lane is a figment of the imagination for most.
I'm disappointed you didn't flash your headlights and lean on your horn at any Rapiers up ahead. Do the needles on the dials wobble as much as they did in Mr Eyles' Jag?
That repeated horn-blowing and light-flashing at the Sunbeam Rapier in the 1963 film starts to stray away from "assertive" into the realms of "aggressive", even if the Rapier driver "hasn't a clue that I'm here".

This was great to watch Thank you! also "watch for pedestrians......LIKE A HAWK" that made me chuckle having seen the original video as well. Of one thing this shows is the idiot drivers do not change but the car has, 1963 = triumph, 2018 = bmw
Saw that video where that idiot in a Triumph Herald gave the Jag driver the two finger salute, once common here in Aussie (as of now in Covid19Lockdown). thanks again.
Agreed. And what happened to Newbury, and to the right turn to view "Box Box" station (long gone, I know), plus the detour along Lower Borough Walls in Bath just before we see the old cattle market on Walcot Street?
Ah,Mr Important in his BMW! He certainly gets around. The difference between this and the 1963 is that all the cars in this one look exactly the same;i.e pretty boring and mostly foreign!

The original 1963 journey from London to Bath is brilliant, I've watched it at least a dozen times, I'll watch it again tonight, I'm fully addicted to it.
No-one tried to interest you in their politics?
Brilliant drive, thanks so much for this lovely trip.

This reconstruction is of the shorter video called "In-Car Camera London to Bath (1963)"
Amazing how the pedestrian situation in Marlborough is just about identicle to 1963!
UA-cam recommended me the original video, now they're recommending me this recreation video, great job !
There is a section with Poplar trees on the A4 which is from Hare Hatch to the Twyford roundabout. The trees were removed due to drivers hitting them. Another section after going through the centre of Reading is where Langley Hill joins the A4 and what is now the Sava Centre roundabout now traffic lights just before entering Theale. Thank you so much for doing this as it brought back many memories of the old and new. My wife does get fed up of me continually pointing out where old roads used to go. Happy Days.

In 55 years time this will look just as quaint as the 1963 film.
I was thinking that myself.
And I'm already thinking to myself I would of preferred the 60's maybe in 55 years time I will be glad I lived when I did
I’ll be very happy to be around when the 2073 version is released.
Those provincial towns look so worn and dusty from 60 years of high volume hydro-carbon powered road traffic. Let's hope, as anticipated, that the electric revolution improves the quality of those poor buggers lives.
I loved the 1963 film, this new version is fantastic. What I really notice is the staggering increase in signs, markings etc.....the driver in 1963 was not bombarded with this volume of information...Great video, thanks a lot.
People back then knew how to drive on the road and were not ignorant morons that just hold the steering wheel.
Rode in my Dads blue Mk2 in the 1960s from Shropshire to Sussex Air Force Base.
He did same journey once with my sister in just over an hour and a half .

Sounds like your father could 'pedal' as fast as mine 😆
Some lovely roads nice music and the best looking saloon car ever. Than all is well in the world.
Thank you for recreating this fascinating trip and for all the tips on hood driving practice. Loved it!
The route hasn't changed much , lots of lovely villages and Marlborough and Bath still fabulous,really enjoyed this video,thank you
This will be a great time capsule for viewers 60 years from now.
Absolutely loved every second of it you wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve watched the original version and I can’t believe I missed your upload until now
I find this amazing relaxing 😀
Nowt changed in Honslow, I remember that junction and round about, and the dual carriageway and that's from 50 odd years ago. Lovely to see its all still there.
sixty years ago a Mk2 was the most elegant car on those roads, today the sole one we could label as that.
Great video 👍🏻
I saw the original a little while ago, but just found yours.
What a difference, once you could spot the different car makes, now unfortunately, their all McCars, everyone the same.
How boring we have become.
One good thing, they got rid of the dreaded third lane.
Great job. I would love you to recreate the constant driving commentary of the original too. That's one of the treats of these trips.
He could never recreat the original accent, though! 😄😄😄
Just watched it side by side with the original. Great job, thanks.
me too...delightful, particularly as i had a 64 mk 2, in almost exactly that same colour too.
It would be lovely to hear the car rather than the music.
What a lovely thing to do! I loved the original and it’s good to see you added subtitles,in the style and accent of original manner. It is mildly reassuring to see that there’s still a lot of England that escaped bulldozing and the erection of those Ryvita towers, that imbricate much of our land, albeit this being a rather rarified route.

Enjoyed the remake thanks! Lovely car in the best colour. I had a MK2 about 20 years ago - mine was in BRG though..

Yes or at least dropped the terrible music/noise no need for it

Just right click on a tab, click duplicate tab, and drag the tab downward. Then you can have two videos at the same time. If on mobile, my bad!
Can’t fault the effort, but there hasn’t been an attempt to show the same sections of road; massive and sudden jump from Thatcham to Hungerford, for instance.
My father had a Mk 2 in 1967 the first car I travelled in
Well done sir.Good to see a modern take on an old classic.
That was just great stuff....really saw a lot of the old places and you captured the feel of the old film perfectly. Well done Mr. Colley.
Agree completely. As I said in a comment to the 1963 video I have even modified my own driving I hope for the better after watching these two videos.
I enjoyed this a lot thank you soo much

It is so clean everywhere. Not a bit of litter anywhere. So unlike where I live.
I was wondering when watching the 1963 video what it would be like today, wonder no more, UA-cam has the answers.... again lol
Very enjoyable. I often drove from Slough to Bristol down the A4 in the mid 1960s. Some more location captions would have been nice though.
The image is a lot better, well done
I often see cars joining a motorway from a slip road at 40 mph speed when cars on the motorway are averaging over 65 mph.

What happened to the flying cars.....?! We were supposed to have flying cars by now!
Took my 1960 morris minor down the A4 to Bath in 1985
What happened to Newbury?!
Amazing that most cars seen are now 'foreign'!
Wow, the M4 with a hard shoulder. Now 4 lanes and breakdown laybyes
What I learned from this video: I should never get a Jaguar hood ornament because I'd be too distracted staring at it.
At least it wasn’t raining going through Calne. Blimey haven’t been through Chippenham since it changed the road system, no wonder everyone uses the by pass.
Thatcham in the Thumbnail!
Jonathan have you thought about doing a split screen. Having the 1963 on the left and your trip on the right as a great comparison?

also "watch for pedestrians......LIKE A HAWK" that made me chuckle having seen the original video as well.
Of one thing this shows is the idiot drivers do not change but the car has, 1963 = triumph, 2018 = bmw
What about the Landrover pulling out in Theale when he should have given way to his right? An all too common practice nowadays.
Almost as soon as he joins the M4 there is the obligatory monthly tick Audi pressing on to “outsmart” other drivers.
1:33 Flooded edge of the road due to lack of gully sucking by the local highway contractor (councils don't do it anymore). Not a 1963 feature. 😮
It's greatly missing the voice-over
If only all drivers still exercised caution when driving.
What camera equipment are you using?
My son filming with his GoPro, can't recall which variant
Pity you didn’t have any commentary!
Saw that video where that idiot in a Triumph Herald gave the Jag driver the two finger salute, once common here in Aussie (as of now in Covid19Lockdown). thanks again.
No places tagged.
Agreed. And what happened to Newbury, and to the right turn to view "Box Box" station (long gone, I know), plus the detour along Lower Borough Walls in Bath just before we see the old cattle market on Walcot Street?
Ah,Mr Important in his BMW! He certainly gets around.
The difference between this and the 1963 is that all the cars in this one look exactly the same;i.e pretty boring and mostly foreign!
why no commentory?
In the original film the commentary was probably scripted and added in post production, along with the titles.
