  • Welcome back all,
    In this weeks upload, me and Lauren head up to the NEC in Birmingham for the classic car restoration show. Although we were attending the show, this video is all about there classic car auction! With over 200 classic vehicles going under the hammer at the event, I had a hard time picking what cars to include in this video! Sticking with my preference I recorded many fords but there are also minis, bmw's, vw's & many more makes/models featuring in this video.
    I found the auction itself very well organised & the write ups on the cars very informative. Unfortunately some of the cars I wanted to look around were locked, which was a slight inconvenience as you expect them to be open for viewing at these auctions. For anyone thinking this layout looks similar to Silverstone auctions, that is because CCA is Silverstone auctions sister company.
    We will be returning to this auction again in the future!
    Next classic sale is: 17th June - Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1XNwww.classiccarauctions.co.uk/

    I actually drove that escort cosworth when it was a traffic car. We also had Sierra cosworths as well to keep up with the ram raiders at that time !!

    And I think we're all very glad you did document the auction this time 🙂 Your presentation was as well laid out as you said the catalogue was - you really get a lot of the atmosphere of attending - and I enjoy your pithy observations on the machines you review. This channel is one you can enjoy from a variety of angles - for sure it would be useful research for someone thinking about investing in a classic - I just like it for chatty, uncomplicated viewing - I always feel a bit better after the 15 or 20 mins! 🙂

    That Mk 1 XR2 reminds me so much of my US model 1978 Fiesta S, which had the same 1.6. I had modded mine to look a lot like the XR2, but with my own design graphics and different wheels...loved that car. Wish you could still find them here but they are all gone.

They did the car dark blue with a lighter blues spectrum stripe on the lower portion. My car was yellow so I did a red/orange spectrum stripe. I autocrossed the car and too 8th at the Nationals in C Street Prepared.
