A total car 'anorak' using You Tube to showcase classic cars with a mix of classic show walkarounds, some occasional basic home 'spannering' with my own 1990 Mercedes-Benz and the odd modern classic review.
Despite the dodgy production and editing I still hope you'll enjoy watching the videos as much as I do making them!
Thanks for watching!!

I drive mine all the time too. 95 E320 coupe same color as you featured. MB of Canada said only 9 were sold here.
1 of 9 they were rare in Canada!
Absolutely brilliant stuff There's something about a poverty spec car Love that three door MK4 cortina Don't tell anyone but I really like those Scorpio's in that ultima spec Great content as usual 👍
The Tawny mk 1 Escort was an XL, not an L. The rectangular headlights and different hubcaps, plus badging signify the main external differences. My dad had an 1100L and I still have the brochure from 1972. Good video, keep em coming.
Many thanks, I need to buy a Mk1 brochure on EBay and brush up on my knowledge!
They look like an Escort at the back.
Back in 93 I had a citrine yellow mondeo for free for 3 weeks…even back then it was a cool car…I worked for a big car rental company and one of these was shipped to us…no one would rent it because of the colour…my manager at the time was a lady called ‘lynn’…she gave me the car for free and was a fantastic boss…those times are now gone sadly
Hi Simon I believe the mk1 escort 1300 L was Tawny brown.
Thanks for confirming… I think some did shout that at me in the background as well. I was thinking Roman bronze but I realised that’s a much later colour.
Thank you for featuring my little 1.6S! We did meet last year and you done a little feature! 350mile trip for me. The trims are standard for this car, there is a couple options but two variants of that particular style. LX come with them and poss the xr2i. Difference being a bigger bowl or smaller bowl in the middle! S models come with a bigger bowl! Someone from the mk3 owners club taught me that so took me a while to find the correct ones/part number!😎
Excellent, yes I do remember from last year. So much rarer than the XR2i as well and it seems well up to long distances! I did doubt myself on the wheel trims as I think I was thinking of the Mk2 XR2 where alloys were optional.
@@Lot76CARS good as gold on the long run! Ah yes, that makes sense! Mine does have a lot of 'leftovers' from the MK2 Xr2 as standard from factory! Seems ford had a lot of surplus parts! The steel wheels being one are MK2 xr2 from factory just different style of trims. They're wider than standard mk3🙂 and of course the engine, 1.6 carb'd cvh rather than the injection! It's a cool variant! And I use it alot as intended!😎
Lucky to have just now discovered you. Nicely filmed, narrated and edited. Subscribed! Volvo P1800 🥰😍
Many thanks for watching and subscribing!!
You never see pre facelift MK2 Granada's yet we've both seen one only a few weeks apart. I can't say I've ever come across the LWB granny before though I think a few councils may have used stretched limo versions. Great to see the Fiesta 1.6S, I saw one two years ago at FOTU but haven't seen another one since. A former work colleague had the 150hp.Fiesta ST and said it was great but could have benefited from a sixth gear. The MK1 focus were great and looked so modern at launch. A neighbour bought one several years ago for £500 and ran it for a few years without having to spend money on it and sold it for as much again.when they were finished with it. 1600E Orion really is hens teeth, don't think I've seen one in the metal. Great to see a Probe and probably the best colour in blue. Interesting to see the 1700T as I'd forgotten about those. My pick would be the RS200 though. The road car.versions looked like a great little sports car with performance to back up the looks. That base model MK3 Fiesta reminds me so much of the ones my Dad used to hire on occasion in the early 90's when he was between cars.
That's my Citrine ❤❤
I go to a lot of classic car shows, but I’ve never seen another one, only on another TH-camrs channel Johnny gets cash as he’s got one of the rare Hendy cars. I was hoping to see you to get some video shots of the inside as the interior looks epic.! if you ever want to feature the car on the channel feel free to reach out to me!!
@Lot76CARS If you're at Ford Fair this year at Silverstone it will be there.
@3doorcosworth I’ll do my best!
@Lot76CARS or I'm at Walsall show in 3 weeks. I will do Himley show that's usually September
I had a 3 door cortina russet brown, wonder how many left now.
That’s the only MK4 I’ve seen!
❤No Pumas?
Strangely I spotted just one, a ‘Racing’ not a single standard car… and I love a Puma!
Good video Simon. Thanks for posting. Love a fast Ford ( well what do you expect from an Essex boy !). I think they owe a fair number of sales to their various Motorsport ventures in rallying and circuit racing. Name me a desirable new Ford apart from the Mustang ?. I'll wait.
I just realised I’d had a Fiesta, 3x Sierras, Mondeo, 3x Orions and 3 x Escorts…they were both the go to brand and had credibility.. when Focus goes next year then there is nothing with driver appeal for me anymore, sad really!
😊 that’s my white st150
Cracking cars and a bit underrated, modern enough to be very usable too! Must admit I’ve looked at them!
I could not get to show looks like I missed a great day glad you showed the mondeo mk1 citrine as I own one it’s being stripped for restoring she is not in bad condition im taken her back to metal then a full respray and restore back to original as I can get her keep up the good work love your videos
Yes, the Mondeo stood out (would be difficult not to) and I was fascinated about the back story. Good luck with the resto, if ever you want to see it on the channel please drop me a line! Cheers, Simon
Wonder if that’s the stolen bronze mk1 escort from Dorset
😮
@@Lot76CARS it looks like one that comes from colchester in Essex.
9:29 is my friends late fathers MG Montego. It was being used as a "shelf" until he passed away last year. It appeared on the TH-cam Channel "The Late Brake Show" - Barn Find Unicorn 80's Turbo Classic Car - Will It Run? 10:49 That would be the Ford Courier (or Courier Kombi which was the seated version with panel windows in the back). Had a run from 1991 - 2002 with 3 different facelifts, was then dropped when the Ford Transit Connect van come along. 🙂
Thanks, I didn’t spot it was a Jonny Smith Barn find!
@@Lot76CARS My friend and his late dad are/were keen MG/Austin/Rover fans, my friend has a fair few of them.
Missed an opportunity of buying a mk5 fiesta st, still think about that car whenever I see one on the road, this video too reminded me of that car that I almost bought. It only had 30k kilometers on the clock and it was back in 2022, with all the papers backing it up too.
.. I was thinking the same as they are still affordable but many have been, erm personalised….
@@Lot76CARS that one was like a third or a fourth car in some big mansion in Nürnberg, it barely had any miles and the owner was an old lady... For some reason I thought that I'd find some better deal somewhere else, ended up wasting my time on old mercs and lost the fiesta offer too. Pretty sad
Collection of lovely motors ❤❤
Much appreciated!
😲😲😲
Nice show! My parents owned a Carlton automatic like that GL at the start. It was one of the last ones 1986 2.2i CD. I got to drive it a few times when I passed my driving test and it was a delight to drive. Interesting history about the Monteverdi.
Hansom car ,eer heard of them,shame they should have done well
Awesome to see my car on your video thank you!
1st car- Jensen Healey?
Has a hint of a few designs in there
Really enjoyed this one Wow that Carlton, I had a B registered one in that colour, CD spec . It was beautiful, the memories came flooding back Thanks again for the fabulous content 👍
It was great wasn’t it? My dad had a 2.3 diesel in hearing aid beige but that was gutless, petrol was the one to have!
0:50 That mat though 🧐🚫
Lovely looking classic cars a great video
Many thanks for watching and commenting!
I’m amazed how many different cars you come upon at your shows.
Many thanks for watching!!
The Sabre looks interesting. I always did like the TVR Griffith 500. The Europa is a very rare sighting, perhaps even more so than the Jenson Interceptor. I've only ever seen pictures of the Monteverdi, what a fantastic looking car. Was that a Lamborghini Kalpa I spotted in the background or a Silhouette? Last time I saw either was Festival Italia a good few years ago. Love that Morris Traveler and spot that tray inside the passenger door. I spotted that Esprit Turbo reflected in the glass of the XR2, one of my all time dream cars. Nice to see the racing Puma. They cost as much as a Subaru Impreza which had a larger turbo charged engine and four wheel drive which definitely hurt sales at the time. I really like the Vitesse, and the Herald for that matter but that six cylinder engine and quad headlamps are a nice touch. Nice GT6 spotted there too. I've become very fond of the River P4 in recent years after having sat in one. That MK1 Jag looks great with those rear wheel covers. That BMC training vehicle is very interesting, never knew that existed. The 924S looks great. Sadly the lesser versions probably don't get the respect they rightly deserve.
The owner of the Monteverdi and the Lamborghini (Silhouette) was the same chap… now that’s a car collection! It’s also been featured on the Number 27 channel! Sad that the 924 aren’t appreciated by some of the Porsche community I’m told…
Your tours are well worth watching, Simon. I enjoyed your descriptions. Some real crackers here.
Mobile training unit is an amazing survivor!
Thanks Ken, I too was blown away by that!
I remember my golf GTi no power steering all the better for it,it was pin sharp in the corners
I've got blisters on my 190e wings rust 😢
Oh dear, that’s not good!
From Marina to Monteverdi..Sounds like a travelogue ! Loving the irony that the version of the Vauxhall Carlton is now practically extinct having been a go to choice for middle management back in the days of company cars. You can tell your grandchildren you saw one " in the metal" Simon !😂
The Judith Chalmers of automotive? Carlton were street furniture, my dad had a company 2.3 non turbo diesel…. wow for that was slow!
😊👍 Gorgeous. Some absolute lovely looking classic vehicles in this line up. What motoring wet-dreams are made of !. 😃
So nice to see my old mk6 fiesta anniversary! miss that old car
Love my 2010 d3 biturbo, the handling and brakes are perfect, and alot better than the standard Bmws
1:43 my car ☺
British cars are the best in design like the Italian cars
Excellent presentation.....well explained on the different manufactorers..thankyou ... beautifull cars
To be blunt and honest with u, as a Malaysian, I not really proud of my local brand , Perodua. Because almost all their are just rebadged Daihatsus & Toyotas. Even Hyundai, used to make crappy cars back then.... and used to rebadged foreign cars as Hyundais.... is starting to become more and more cooler and competitive in today's automotive market🙂👍. At this point, i don't have high hopes for the brand, I don't care what those Haters think or say, I would rather drive my dream car .....than to drive a new car.. That is.... Unfortunately... Based on another new car 🙃 , anyway thanks for making this video cheers 😁
i like all old British cars 👍🏿👍🏿🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you for featuring my Escort Harrier at 11:30. I am only the second owner of this car, and it's covered just 39000 miles from new
It’s lovely to see a survivor Escort and yours is immaculate! Would be good to see it at the Ford Nationals in August.
@@Lot76CARS Thank you for the heads up👍, I've just bought a ticket for the Ford Nationals at Gaydon, next Sunday June 23rd. I guess that's a different event?
@@paulph12002 that’s the one, sorry I was thinking of Ford Fest (dates) but prefer the Nationals at Gaydon
@@Lot76CARS No worries, it did cross my mind that you might have been thinking of Ford Fair. I haven't been to Ford Nationals yet But I'm looking forward to it, fingers crossed for the weather as always
As I said this should be a good show. The best one I've been to so far was Festival of the Unexceptional where the Escort was a Concours finalist in 2022. Might see you at Gaydon then
Brilliant as always Who couldn't love a Rover 600
Totally agree, I’d love a 620 Ti!
As usual very good . Love the Viva HA and also the HB ,incidentally the HA had a 1057cc engine theHB had an 1159 engine.I am just restoring my first car an HA that I used in the ASEMC Rally Championship ,the London Counties Rally Championship and the Motoring News Rally Championship shown on TH-cam so hopefully it will be something a bit different!
Thanks, it was great to see Viva HA and HB in the same show but sadly no HC for the full set! Hope to see them all at Vaux ALL at the British Motor Museum in August.
