"In 1957 This must've been fantastic", sir, this looks fantastic now, this concert of engine and gearbox, what a symphony. The voice is low but the engine is perfect, for me, no changes are necessary.
Another half-hour of automotive gold. This video incorporates a charming unrehearsed presentation style with wonderful analogue engineering skills, unique and personal historical references and a road test that bears testament to not only the experience and skill of a remarkable driver but also the genius of the original Lotus design.
That was the best 30min i have spent i a long time. The sound of the straight cut gearbox. And the sound of a pair of DCO40s Webbers just awesome. I have just been taken back 45 years.
I'm taken back to 1968 when a pal arrived at my home in his new Cooper S. Off we went, so fast that I felt as though I was going through the seat. In 20 minutes we had travelled 20 miles across Sydney, not something you could do nowadays, of course.
This is the first time, in a very, very long time, that something on the internet has made me beam! Sat with a s**t eating grin on my face the whole way through!
"got to sensible on the road" HA HA you looked like you were driving it like you stole it, you young hooligan! Great video, can't wait for your Brands Hatch video
Holy hell, the second gear pull on that is insane. Had me grinning from ear to ear. If you /do/ manage to get down to the south of France, you're more than welcome to come and stay with us on the way, we run a gite in the Alps, loads of wicked twisty roads to thrash about on round here. What was very refreshing was seeing someone driving a performance car the way it's supposed to be driven, i.e with the pedal to the floor, but still being courteous and respectful of other road users. Might be a generational thing, that.
same here. i've been devouring vids on old sportscars with daydreams of cobbling together a junkyard dog of my own. nowhere near ivan's level of expertise or resources but even so......
Some how you still have people who thumbs down this type of content. Who would do that? Fantastic video - the type of person that exemplify's what was great about Great Britain.
my eldest brother still has his Lotus 7 which he built from kit in the early 1960's and is among the first 100 to be produced. Sadly he is now getting old and can longer get in and it hasn't been driven for quite a while. I remember going in it when I was I was small and it only had aircraft style half moon windscreens to begin with. He raced it in the late 60's and early 70's and was restored in the late 90's. Great fun
What a fascinating half hours watch, such a lovely example of a car beautifully restored. Great fun experiencing the Lotus getting thrashed through those narrow country lanes. Good work, nice video.
Excellent content, thoroughly enjoyed this video and your others. Keep up the good work, very professional and so interesting with all the different facts. I have a Westfield Eleven which I love, it’s coming out of store at the end of April in readiness for hopefully a few Abingdon track days. Thank you again and good luck.
Ivan is an absolute joy to watch and listen to, he has a huge wealth of motor engineering experience, he has a very engaging manner in his videos and is supported by a gentleman with all the machinist and skills to complement Ivan. Such a down to earth style that will go down well with those who love good old fashioned motor engineering
What a kick ! Watching this "senior" (that's ok, I'm 74), revving this beauty up to racing speeds. The sound ! Music, lovely music. A gorgeous car, the Lotus 7. I'd love to have one myself, with that same setup. Thanks for one of the best half hours (well, a bit longer. I had to watch it again from 16:00) I've ever spent .
In 15 years I will look like your twin, and if I am living half the life you have, I will be a happy man. Wish I had your knowledge. Your an inspiration sir. Thank you.
Now I began realizing what can be "the real Lotus 7" ... Catherham are Nescafé I think :D Brakes : this original car seems light, "minimalist" may I say? Looking at the disks : supposing the constant fresh air flow in their large room and the big diameter of the rear ones with such a light car, they can make it, I think!
Wow, what a fantastic restoration. The car looks and sounds amazing. As a former Caterham 7 owner, I can only guess how good that car feels. You're also the kind of attentive, thoughtful driver we need more of. Slow and careful where you need to be, fast when it is safe and vision permits. Driving 'raw' cars like this really puts you in touch with the car and the road. Looking forward to seeing more of her on track.
The CC engine had to be light because it would be hand carried by 2 firemen to where it was needed I think the whole thing weighed in at 180 pounds it was also used in fork lifts and the Hillman Imp.
Do the Brands or Mallory session, pretty please :) My mate Jim owns an original Lotus Elise with the MGF engine. His uncle was the Worth in Cosworth. I have just sent him a link to this. What an amazing car, two years older than myself and capable of that kind of performance. How very wonderful. Thank you for this. I really appreciate all of it and your channel very much. Literally delicious for someone like me.
Wow that ride was great😊 loved the sound. I would like to see Code Masters Sim racing for Ps4 develop historical cars for their gaming systems. We need to learn more about these cars. Your a great Professor and driver.
That Lotus is a beast. You were driving it like you stole it. I have owned a Harley a Triumph and a 1916 Henderson cutoff engine that ran. I tinker in my small machine shop everyday but never had any projects as cool as yours. Wish I could be your apprentice. God Bless Us All.
glad I found this channel, great content. old guy joke--- contemplating the hereafter: old guy in the basement/shop wondering what the hell he's here after. knew a guy here in St.Louis, Mo. that had a L7, leather helmet, goggles, it was a daily driver. be safe, have fun.
How I wished I lived in England! I would beg this Gent to teach me everything He knows, so I could teach future generations. Ivan reminds Me of my Grand dad, who taught Me a lot about Electrical wiring, outlets and switches, Etc. To this day, I can replace a broken outlet or switch, or replace a light fixture or ceiling fan, and do it right. Great channel1 Thank You for sharing your time.
So that’s where Jean Luc Picard has been! Brilliant work! Great down to earth film. That engine sounds amazing “Hopefully I can rev my Mini Cooper s like a loony and it won’t go wrong!” 👌
Loved the car, loved the content, and ..... the icing on the cake was the respectfully wide and slow pass given to that lone cyclist at 24:30. Excellent all round!
A proper test drive. An good to hear you saying all those sensible things about other road users. I thoroughly agree there are people driving far too quickly on country roads with no idea what's around the next bend, who think modern engineering works by magic not physics - or else they're psychopaths. Lovely video.
This is a wonderful video that really brings the early 7 to life, and we can see how revolutionary it must have been in its day. It still looks like a good performer now.
Great video and great drive. As a petrolhead and cyclist it's nice to see how a truly good driver tolerates other road users and understands why they might be doing what they are doing. And you wouldn't say he's a boring driver.
Oww your just great . . lol lol . . you got a score year on me but if I live that long . . I daily drive scruffiest S1 Elise going, have done for years . . Did a loony Tunes Drive to Mc Donolds earlier . . If it's In you It's In you and It's never going away.
you showed the driveshaft as you took it out, inspected it, and packed it to be sent to the shop, but didnt show it after being repaired - It looked to me like the U-joints were out of phase as both were in line instead of being 90 degrees out from front to back? what did they do to fix it? I suspect cut one flange off and weld it back round clocked a bit?
Superb videos, great content. Going out for the drive was utterly gripping, it felt (and I wished) that I were sat in with you. Simply fantastic. Thanks for your effort putting the videos up.
Man that test drive! Nnngghhh!! I would be really scare by the aceleration and speed and gramps didnt even flinch, what a madlad! And the sound of the engine and the straight cut gears!! And the gear selector just goes click-click-click like is was guided
Awesome in car footage(got to love a straight cut gearbox)-Takes me back-My Dad built Lotus 7 in 1958- eventually with a 1340cc Ford engine. Had a second one in 1964 (ex hillclimbcar with a triumph TR4 engine)All before I was born '68.When I was 17 he then bought a series 4 big valve headed 7.
Just discovered this channel, and it's almost too good to be true. Nothing like this anywhere else. Bravo Ivan, thank you for sharing these wondrous old pieces of esoterica in such detail and with such enthusiasm.
Wow!! I'm blown away by the acceleration and the sound it makes, that climax is one hell of an engine and I love what you have done with the car and the way you drive it!👍
Great video! Love this guy: " all this stuff i collected over the years has been fantasttifically useful". I tell my wife that too. All race cars have webers., great sound!
Wonderful video! I'm a fan and now subscribed. I have #449 here in the states with a Climax FWE. I may be at your age but feel like I'm a novice compared to your wonderful knowledge and skills. And Jay Leno has nothing on your video production! Actually, it is time for Jay to visit your Shed to do a story on your 7. (really, you are the story)
So glad I subbed your channel Ivan, been enjoying and learning from all your videos, you are a pleasure to watch and listen to! When I found your channel last week regarding the old Salmson from a 2018 video, I saw this car in the background of a later update and thought 'Oooo, a Lotus 7, wonder if we'll get to see this?', and sure enough here it is! As a side thought, there's just something about the whine of straight-cut gears that makes my hair stand on end, but in a very good way :) Thank you for all the knowledge you share, please don't stop! Cheers from PNW Canada!
Bloody fantastic looking forward to more on the seven and the 11 if you still have it... my dream car 🤓👍 fantastic videos keeping me motivated during these crap times.. cheers
Beautiful car. Brought back loads of memories of my Dad taking me to Silverstone in the early 60s and, more recently, of marshalling at historic meetings. The sound of a Coventry Climax at full chat is something else and must be marvellous in a 7. Closest I've got is hiring a Caterham and that was great fun. Thanks for a terrific video.
That was such a pleasure! I've always loved those cars so seeing #17 is pretty special. Also, that may be the most exciting on board video I've ever seen.
This video is absolutely brilliant. Ivan : considering your love of Bugatti, Salmson, Edwardian Peugeot and your spirited drive on these roads, I think you may have a portion of French blood in your veins ! Christian
Absolutely marvelous videos, so please I stumbled across your channel. I find you videos so interesting and to see the Coventry Climax engine as well which from childhood I have heard mythical things about them.
excellent work sir...stunning example of a racecar from the past before electronics took away feel from the driver and guts and intuition made the car do things thought to be impossible at the time
This is a marvellous channel, the best on UA-cam. I've seen your ads in C&S many times but how nice to put a face with the name. Fantastic job Ivan. You should be Knighted!
I hope his grandson the cameraman knows how fortunate he is to have this guy for a grand dad.
Fastest Grandad in the world
Well, he grew up around cars such as that, and a lot of Bugattis, so, I think he's in good hands...
Lucky grandson, I had a similar grandfather
The Lotus 7 was my dad's car originally .. xx

sort of glad youtube recommended this randomly
I’m more than glad it did and have only watched the first 4 minutes !
What a car !
@@davidfoster1762 yeah pretty good for 1950s
me too
Just subbed.
Proper old bloke with a proper old car! This is excellent! Very inspirational. Thanks for posting.
Not many of the younger generations could change gear like that
This is the first time, in a very, very long time, that something on the internet has made me beam! Sat with a s**t eating grin on my face the whole way through!
"got to sensible on the road" HA HA you looked like you were driving it like you stole it, you young hooligan! Great video, can't wait for your Brands Hatch video
He only took it to 5? I clearly saw 7 or 8 while he was thrashing its pants, excellent stuff!
Had me sitting on the edge of my seat!
Long live us senile delinquents!
This man is a legend.
The way he is shifting gears in a 1957 car is unbelievable.
What a brilliant video. I'm a fan of Ivan's Shed.
-What is that sound on the street?!
-Nothing dear, just an old guy living his life...
Holy hell, the second gear pull on that is insane. Had me grinning from ear to ear. If you /do/ manage to get down to the south of France, you're more than welcome to come and stay with us on the way, we run a gite in the Alps, loads of wicked twisty roads to thrash about on round here.

Can’t imagine picking that up in 1957 must have felt it was a rocket ..
I have found a new hero just the sound of that Lotus amazing.
It really sounds like more than 4 cylinders.
What a cracking channel. As an older mechanic I am fully embedded in this workshop, loving it. Ivan and his team are bloody brilliant.

Some times UA-cam gets its algorithm just right. What a amazing story on a car and a mans history with it.
What a fascinating half hours watch, such a lovely example of a car beautifully restored. Great fun experiencing the Lotus getting thrashed through those narrow country lanes.

I love it! "You've got to be a bit sensible". "Only took it to 5000 RPM". Screams along country lane like a guided missile!
Age shall not weary him. Thank you SIR.

You can see the Hillman Imp lineage in the engine. They were beautifully built, the Coventry Climax engines.
