- In this episode of Jimbo’s Driveway, we leave the driveway behind to go and visit Classic and Cake hosted by Duke of London, in Brentford. A Sunday morning meet-up for car enthusiasts, consisting of a mix of retro cars and a few modern supercars, for good measure.
There were plenty of interesting cars to choose from, I gravitated towards several cars that felt really special to me, as they bring back both childhood memories and some nostalgia of my earlier driving days.
The cars in question are a mint condition MG metro 1300, a BMW 325i Sport Tech 1 and Lotus Esprit HF Turbo, as per Roger Moore/James Bond, For your eyes only fame.
In addition to these, I really wanted to have a close-up look at the Curfew Jaguar XJ-S from Luden Automotive (luden.co.uk)
I hope you enjoy the video and if so, please like and subscribe. I do my best to answer and respond to comments.
Thanks Jimbo. Cool to see all of these youngtimers in London.
Keep em coming Jim
I'm liking the gold wheel centres. Very tasteful. Car looks fantastic. Keep up the good work.
Great video. Always enjoy seeing car shows. The black E type coupe was beautiful. Best regards, John
I had a little black MG turbo. Went like stink but broke down too many times unfortunately. Was a great car though.
Jim, glad you liked my MTech1! Nailed the history lesson on the E30 325i Sport. Cheers
Yas Matharu they are so rare these days, I was genuinely excited when I noticed it. My Tech1 is truly one of the cars I wish I still had!
The 323i Sports are as rare as hens teeth. Must have been gutting to lose that.
Hello, do you know where or who converted the transmission on your car?
Miles Criscuolo the previous owner is a mechanical engineer and undertook the work himself. The manual gearbox conversion, comes as a kit supplied by a company called Simply Performance, who are in the UK.
@@JimbosDriveway Thank you! I have contacted them and I'm working with them on a conversion for my XJ-S in the US. I look forward to more videos!
