Ep6 | Austin 7 Track Day | Curborough Sprint Circuit

We take our Austin 7 Loan Car round the track at Curborough, and meet some of the youngsters who were also there to enjoy the feeling of racing a pre-war car.

Looks like a fun day out.

[@chrisdegroot2026]

Really nice to see young people enjoying their classic cars!

[@DaveGoodman1959]

Well that film was brilliant and inspiring.
Cheers. And good luck with the new work.
👍

Glad you enjoyed it!

That was a great video, Liam. I'm so enjoying this series. Keep up the good work. I'm really loving the old car. Almost hard to believe she was already nearing the half-hundred when my Volvo was built in October, 1989. Still, almost 32 years on the road and nearly 400,000 miles is a respectable showing.

What he says about most young people being more interested in modern Japanese vehicles is unfortunately quite true in my experience, but at least this channel (and my own for that matter) is trying to do something about it. Keep up the good work!

This is a lovely video, I aswell 15 am interested in vintage cars and have a 1926 Austin 7 chummy myself which I rebuilt, funnily enough I go to Charlie's A7 club and he is a great friend of mine !!!

Nice series! I'm 24 and owner of an Austin a35 from 1957. An Austin seven might be my next go for!

As someone who was there it was a great day and drive around the track

Well done chaps, good to see proper fun in pukka cars.

I just enjoyed watching all your 7 episodes of Austin 7, having been put on to it after reading Ray's story on the MVA meeting, in Minor Matters. Great job, very well done. It only made me feel a bit guilty having 'bangerd' a couple of those lovely Chummies on a farm somewhere in Devon back in the 60ies. The challenge was to run them round a circuit without turning them over, which we of course did.... :(. Wish I'rather kept one to enjoy pottering around with today.

Love watching your videos. Will you be comimg up to the lakeland trial on the 13th? Theres a massive entry of 7s and pleanty of young competitors.

A really lovely little car and it's great that it's being used and hasn't become an over restored "garage queen" The only thing I have noticed is quite a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust. This is usually a sign of worn bores and/or rings (both my Morris 8's were the same) Does it use quite a lot of oil ?

[@chrispickering3864]

Looks fun. Any plans for another one?
