- Welcome bak all,
In this weeks upload we head down to the Isle of Wight in our classic fords, for a weekend full of cars, driving and good vibes! I've attended the IOW before for the takeover show, which is usually packed with show cars. This is a one day event on the Sunday, so it gives you a great opportunity to make a weekend trip and explore the rest off the Island whilst you're there!
We took 3 Mk2 Fiestas down and a Fiesta ST, all of which ran faultlessly with no unwanted breakdowns! I added many postcodes to the video to make this a useable guide for others wanting to make the trip in the future. We stayed at Parkdean Caravan park (Lower Hyde) but I would stress there's plenty more accommodation options on the Island.
The show itself was very busy this year and did lack some communication and organisation. Overall there was lots of modern Caras but I did manage to spot the odd classic too. We left at around 1pm but luckily we still had plenty of the Island to explore before we travelled home!

Cheers mate, was a great trip!
This is proper UK culture. I'm an Aussie but I wish that could cruise with you fellas in my ST150 (known as the XR4 here). Amazing video production quality by the way. Keep up the great content, mate! 🍻
Cheers mate, I’d love to head over to Australia within the next few years to check out your car culture! Heard there’s plenty of classic fords 👀
@@Mk2Mitch You really should mate! Ford culture is super strong here. The Ford Falcon and all of the smaller hot Fords are a huge part of Australian heritage and culture :) The yearly showdowns between Holden & Ford at Bathurst were a big thing
Great video - I always love your enthusiasm. Pure delight. 😊
Thank you 😁
So you travelled via Red Funnel then returned Wight Link! I. bet that was expensive! loved the Isle of Wight as I grew up there as a child and we had massive fun!
Red funnel were running limited ferry’s as one was having maintenance. We went with Wight Link on the return leg and Red Funnel refunded our crossing. Worked out £15 cheaper! 😆
Gun turrets, mate! We've got the Torry Battery in Aberdeen. Pretty much identical!
Yes that’s the one, thank you!
The white fiesta with the cossie wheels and bmx on the roof is Jason’s from JW Autoshine. He lives on the IOW. Mint car. Really nice guy too 👍👍
I see! Will have to give him a search 👍🏻

Hi the green fiesta and all in this vid is local car along with the mini cortina and yellow escort that has 4000 miles on he has a collection of cars as well as another mk1 fiesta with 20000 miles
Oh wow, thank you for the information! That’s super low mileage on the escort 😮
I love Connor’s MK2 👌🏻
It’s a lovely car 😎

WIGHFT ??? 😄 Wight Mitch !! Great vid mate 👍
Haha, thank you for correcting me! 😆
How much did the ferry cost please,.

Hi mate, our ferry’s were around £200 but you can get them much cheaper than that 👍🏻
Quality video dude 😎

I have a Ford Fiesta year 1987, 94000 miles
Seeing this I’d love to find a Mk2 1.4 Ghia…
Size difference in the mk2 fiesta’s & the ST fiesta 😂
Makes the Mk2 look like a model car 🤣
Hi m8 sos but is your no plate straight sorry its a observation. Not a criticism due to your perfectionist way 🙏👍
Hi mate, no I don’t think the plate is wonky? Maybe it was the angle you captured
Top🍌👍👍👍
The isle off white is shit but the car show looks amazing.
I loved the island, plenty of lovely scenery and great to drive around 😁
