Great video! Over an hour long and no annoying adverts interrupting every 10mins! How is this possible..?! I really want to go to the Haynes Motor Museum now!
Trivia: did you know the Sunbeam Tiger was originally planned to have the GM 215 V8? But they couldn't make the deal with GM so they went with the Ford 289.
friend had an Elva Courier back in the day, great autocross car. to fully appreciate the Pontiac, you have to see it at night with the lights on, the chiefs head hood emblem lights up, to show the way.
Miura SV is the actual top of the range. Certainly gorgeous. Chap down the road from me has an Edsel Villager wagon, he’s also got a Cadillac Fleetwood.
Boys PLEASE know your stuff it’s series 11 (2) 88 inch hardtop Land Rover an a merc C class 230k sport K being kompressor , or supercharged in UK speak. At least you didnt call the Land Rover a defender i will give you that an I’m only 4.16 into it tut tut 😊😊
34:31 SM (beautifully beautiful car!!!!) used a chopped down V8 as France had a taxation on large engines. Unfortunately being a chopped V8 it ended up the wrong configuration for the V so needed a balance shaft to help with lumpiness and run smoothly. They also had a twin points setup with one set being upside in the dizzy making them awkward to adjust so meant doing it on the bench off the car. Also an early AA bike not Postal. 😊😊
The Land Rover is not a Series 1, it's a Series 2 SWB 88" Hardtop model. The Series 2 was built 1961-71, and on a 1963 A reg plate, it's more likely to be a Series 2A. Back around 1971, a large steel framed asbestos garage, near where I lived, collapsed during a storm, completely wrecking a Sumbeam Tiger that had been stored in it for several years. Mum has good taste re the SD1 Sheldon, especially a series 2. 👍
@classic_britain The Series one is a cute but basic little thing. Had a SWB petrol soft top as a tow vehicle and do all runabout years ago. I used to love driving it, similar look to the Air Portable lightweight the military had. Ha ha, I just realised you were talking about your mum having a S1 SD1 V8. Yes, I've had a few, including a 2600. The series 2 SD1 were much better, and I've had my 1985 spec 3.5 Vanden Plas 5 speed carb model since late 1989 and no desire to part with it.
I don’t understand people who are interested in cars but aren’t interested in the interiors. Lotus elite shared almost all components with the esprit, except transmission and rear end. The later cars even had ZF transmissions. So why was it “possibly one of the worst cars lotus ever made”???
Ive got a 1996 BMW 850 CSI 1 of 21 uk cars 5.7 v12 6 speed manual if you want to do a vid an its for sale. An a Range Rover L405 the proper big one SV autobiography 5.0 supercharged 575 bhp as standard but mine is 680 now an 23k miles 2018 model, reply an let me know 😊😊
Sad that you dont have a nice word to say about the 2CV, surely its quirkiness is enough to earn it some respect and what did you expect it to drive like? 😉
What a great video!
Perfect exposure, stabilized slow panning, very good audio, brilliant commentating.
Thx for a great show!
Glad you liked it!

I really want to go to the Haynes Motor Museum now!
It's a great place!
What about the Delorean DMC12 that u just walked pass and didnt say anything about as there where made in belfast northern Ireland
It's a cool car for sure but I had very little battery left so had to be quick!

No I did not know that but I do now!
Wow Awesome Video enjoyed so many Incredible cars, didn't expect you to be able to film another SD1 Estate very cool 😀👍🏻.
Glad you liked it!
Best motor museum I've ever seen thanks!
Another great video. The Renault at the start is the Laguna touring car. An absolute weapon, it’s front-mid engined.
friend had an Elva Courier back in the day, great autocross car. to fully appreciate the Pontiac, you have to see it at night with the lights on, the chiefs head hood emblem lights up, to show the way.
oh nice I did not know that!
How could you not stop on such a sunny day in the UK 😅😅😊😅
I've driven the Toyota Starlets predecessor the 1000.
Miura SV is the actual top of the range. Certainly gorgeous. Chap down the road from me has an Edsel Villager wagon, he’s also got a Cadillac Fleetwood.
am i the only one whose arse puckered when he saw the toddlers heading towards the motorbikes in the little tykes car lol @51.30
also how in the hell has this only got 5 and a half thousand views ?
Series 2 Land Rover. Great video, but you are getting some of your guesses wrong, but even so enjoyed it and seeing the cars.
The Mercedes c32 AMG is actually a V6 M112 engine
Those bench seats are good can swap drivers without stopping 😅😊😅😊

They are lovley cars but if I was to own one it would have to be mint!
Ok sorry its a C43 but there so rare its usually a dressed up 230k , the TVR is a sagaris
It's a real nice car!
The Sunbeam Tiger first generation with the 260 Ford V8 was a car with a great attitude.
Awesome 👍
Glad you enjoyed it

She has a series 1 will make a video on it at some stage

35:35 - that’s my dream classic car if I win the lottery ❤
Don't do it LOL
Hope you didn't get sunstroke 😅😊😅
Correct, I did laugh at Wankel

Thanks but I only do British stuff

Sorry they just do nothing for me
I'm with your mum on E types. Don't see the appeal. A Jaguar should have Space, Pace and Grace.
I like the D type better!
Damn I only live 15 mins away I would’ve popped over to say hi!
Darn it was all last moment TBH
