@@TheLateBrakeShowHiya Johnny, thanks for a great video. I've had a life long love of Fords (cars, vans and trucks) so I'd love the transit, although it looks dull in grey. Also always loved classic mini's, so I was definitely drooling over the Wogan mini. Unfortunately one car you didn't have time to feature was the green mini with the large bonnet bulge, that looked great, but I fully appreciate you couldn't cover every car. Please keep up the great work.
I was the sales manager at Snowdon Honda back when that CRX was new, cracking vehicle…if you look carefully at the back it still has the dolphin decal that was the logo for Snowdon…..
I've owned two Lotus Sunbeams in my time and absolutely loved them. My first was moonstone and black stripe and totally original.. My second one was Black with silver stripe. Re upholstered in original fabric. My choice still, every time. They're so much understated and can easily be upgraded to plus 200 bhp..
I never considered Wogan giving it the 'VTEC yo!' Imagine getting chopped by a sleeper Mini and glancing over to see Tel at the helm! Sweet, sweet guy.
That vtec crx would be in my collection for sure. I done my apprenticeship at honda main dealer when they were about new right at the end of there run. I remember my first drive in one and i was in love. The best one was a 4 year old car done 110k miles and thrashed every day and that car never let him down and it was the fastest one i have ever driven by some way because they love a good thrashing and they are all the better for it. Love it. ❤️
As a Honda fan, that CRX is a rare find, most were modified so to see a stock one is one of a kind. Great car for someone. Cheap at 10K and money will be safe in that for sure.
That Talbot Sunbeam Lotus is so cool, never mind that Mk1 Escort which was clearly a very late one on an N plate. I often wonder what ever happened to my mates Chevette HS he and a mutual friend both had. They were excellent Q cars 👍🏻
Had both a Lotus Sunbeam (ex ICE Motorsport) and Chevette HSR (ex Dave Harris hillclimb & sprint record holder). So exciting and so much more pure than modern cars with power steering, ABS and several hundred extra kilograms!
I owned the supercharged Monaro a couple of years back, absolute epic car! It's as clean underneath as it is on top. Awesome to drive, 4000 rpm is when it really comes on cam! Happy days.😁👌
If you are ever “in the market” for a fun toy do treat yourself to a Sunbeam Lotus. Sold mine - after hugely expensive restoration and a Graham Hickman 220BHP engine - for just £5,500.😢😢😢 Should never have let it go - new owner on the Isle of Man turned it into a full Works Replica. It was a brilliant car, so pure and lively and at 810kg very fast. In sprints the only Escort faster was Mike Cross (Jaguar handling etc. Development Chief) on slicks. You’d love It!
In the style of Uri Geller I was urging YOU to look at the Capri sandwiched between the BMW and Escort. Not angry with you, just disappointed, also bent all the fork that I was eating my dinner with. Thanks again Mr Smith.
As a Ford Enthusiast, i think I would take the Sunbeam Lotus the Mark 1 Escort, does nothing for me and i never understood the hype. Loved the Blue V12 Ferrari, Edinburgh registered most likely to a garage 5 mins from my house. Terry Wogan was a bit of a dark horse with his vtec powered mini, can imagine him chopping people driving round London after the Radio 2 Breakfast show. A brilliant episode Jonny for me it has to be the Sunbeam Lotus.
Some tempting cars there, in the background also but if I was in the market for another car then it would be the honda pick-up first and if I was feeling flush then wogan's mini ! Great episode again, I'm gonna dream a little and watch the auction tomorrow, thanks for the heads up mate 👍
I went from a Daihatsu Charade GTti to an identical CRX that I kept for 8 years and then traded for the Lotus Elise 111S in 2001 that I still have. The CRX probably has seen paint as they went rusty around the sliding steel sunroof and if not fixed the drainage channels inside the body could rot out.
I owned a Mk1 Sunbeam Lotus in black with silver strip KKV 34V, i paid £3500 for it in 1989 and drove it for 4 years and sold it for £3500. Wish i had it now.
28:00 Wogans Mini looks the nadgers! I NEED it, i NEED it!!!! What a lovely Mini, exterior looks very tidy but that interior is staggeringly impressive. Just like Terry Wogan himself! Both are true LEGENDS of their time!
Awesome walk around. Lovely to see some Monaro coverage :) Absolutely second that rust protection underneath and in the cavities, make sure it's done correctly as the chassis rails can rot from the inside out! Other upgrades that transform the car other than the short shifter is the pedders quick rack, AP racing brakes and some decent suspension upgrades. Turns a relatively blunt instrument into a weapon. Love the content Jonny.
Thank you for this comment. Sadly too many cars like Monaros have their underneaths neglected, so folks polish the paint and don't realise it's rotting beneath the body kit.
@@TheLateBrakeShow4 left?! You are kidding. My old neighbour in the UK had a maroon Cav turbo and a Calibra in a colour called Northcape, it was a Mouve shade and absolutely amazing in sunlight
@@user-vk4vd7vr5tI'm currently selling my Calibra 16v in Northcape had it since 2017 but need to sell it now due to lack of funds. In great condition for it's 27 years , it's a later 97 model that were galvanised from new
Thanks for putting this out, if not for your channel I would have missed this. Kid in a sweet shop, I want everything (or rather would like) thanks Johnny!
For me it’s the Minaro, always drooled when I saw one parked up or pass by. Otherwise any of the minis’ the mk1 escort, the Traaaaansit geez’ for sure 😂
If you get chance to drive a 964 Carrera 2 Coupe. You will know ,youll do whatever it takes to own one 😀. I owned a 3.8 Carrera S 997 for years and although a great car with that "special" feeling and sense of occasion. The 964 is just a different league altogether . All the charm and looks with it G body shell, but a better sounding larger capacity 3.6 litre engine . Better and more forgiving suspension . You really do not need another car to get that true, authentic, raw driving experience combined with total useability
considering how expensive it is for both seller and buyer to be at an auction, it seems a bit 'low rent' to have the viewing in a cramped little field with a very small tent. Any more rain and walking round those cars will be like a wet Glastonbury! You'll get loads of mud in them when moving them! They should have had it somewhere fully paved.
You can import an Aussie Monaro into the UK after 10 years old without any problems but sending one from the UK to Australia is almost impossible until it's 25 years old. Ridiculous Australian import rules.
The car I have to have is of course the Clio V6, what else would I like, Citroen DS, e type, the Monaro without a doubt. Interesting the biturbo merc s class, kind of yummy, not what I would normally look at.😊
Don’t worry Jonny. I’ve never seen the crown either. Probably too busy watching the‘Late brake show’❤. Oh do not convert the Rolls silver cloud to EV please. I would give you 6 months in jail for that. By all means convert the Bedford camper even the little Fiat 500 but let that Roller purr ❤
I think I saw that same Sunbeam Lotus on the Whiteland Restorations channel a while ago? They also had a black / silver one in to fix a botched restoration attempt.
Some lovely cars there, that 635, wow. One thing which makes me cringe a little is seeing these cars on wet long grass. I can imagine them wheelspinning and getting stuck and throwing mud everywhere,. That would seriously piss me off. Good video Jonny
the ford transit love that one! special when it have the dubble wheels in the back. But you forgot the Mercedes next to the corniche. old E-class think it was a coupe
I came home from the maternity hospital in a 1956 Bentley S1 in November 1968!! It was black over silver & very large looking when i was little! My Dad would borrow it from my Great Grandparents & caine it sensless when we went out in it 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Jonny, the Japanese have been building great cars of which one I own and and comes standard with a rear window wiper, which you continue to run down every car that has one. The JDM version of the Australian H31 Skyline are worlds apart. We don’t have as much rain in Australia, as you In the UK, I’m guessing you get about 360 wet days a year, the rear wiper is gold and works, you poms must be pissed off that you didn’t think of it first. The 105E Ford Anglia is the only truly great UK car that the rear wiper would be wasted on.
Johnny , Terry Wogan was from over here in Ireland, from County Limerick to be exact , he may have been a presenter on British TV, but when you say he was an institution, he was an Irish Institution not a British one.
You've got the catalogue in your hand ... we're going to have fun 😊 cheers !

@@TheLateBrakeShow Terry wogan True Legend
Never in a million years would I think Terry Wogan had a car like that. What a man:)
Ditto!
I was very surprised! Who knew? I bet that mini flies.

I doubt it was Terry’s
More likely Mark’s
Terry Wogan, yet again, proving to be a complete legend; a man of class and taste. What a car!
Was holding my breath every time Jonny turned round with that brolly under his arm.
Ha oh goodness, yes so was I, by that Range Rover 😩
😂
The only downside of this video is that it's not long enough!! Completely brilliant !
Well, thank you. We can never speak in detail about all the car lots, but we try to pick a variety.
That CRX, oh that CRX... If only I had a garage to keep it safe in! And, Terry Wogan was a naughty boy! Fair play, Terry!
I was the sales manager at Snowdon Honda back when that CRX was new, cracking vehicle…if you look carefully at the back it still has the dolphin decal that was the logo for Snowdon…..
That CRX.... I was honestly waiting for you to say 'find another' lol
Sir Ranulph might be bidding tmr...
Our friend is driving one of those at this moment in that colour 🤔 maybe I should tap her up to be the next owner…
I've owned two Lotus Sunbeams in my time and absolutely loved them. My first was moonstone and black stripe and totally original.. My second one was Black with silver stripe. Re upholstered in original fabric. My choice still, every time. They're so much understated and can easily be upgraded to plus 200 bhp..
Works cars had around 240BHP. Mine had 220, doesn’t sound much now but it weighed 810kg wet. The Work’s Manifold & Exhaust sounded absolutely awesome.
I never considered Wogan giving it the 'VTEC yo!'
Imagine getting chopped by a sleeper Mini and glancing over to see Tel at the helm!
Sweet, sweet guy.
Jonny - possibly the ONLY used car salesman on earth you could trust !
Plus matt at high peak autos on you tube 👍

You had me at 'Sunbeam Lotus' 😍
LOVE THE SCREAMING HAND OLD SCHOOL SKATE TEE
Terry Wogan just became even more of a legend in my eyes.
How did that not come up in his Top Gear interview?
@@stotheh probably didn't have it back then. That was a very early TG he was in.
Legend…a bit of an exaggeration
@@lolitapitpong3826 There is no other word to attach to the Great Sir Terry Worgan a Legend he is.
@@MrSCOTTtheSCOT why…because he was on the tell a lie vision 😂😂😂

I had a CRX, same colour, same year and model.
A seriously cool car, I'm tempted to place a bid.
I owned the supercharged Monaro a couple of years back, absolute epic car! It's as clean underneath as it is on top. Awesome to drive, 4000 rpm is when it really comes on cam! Happy days.😁👌
Ahh cool, my eldest son bought it, had a quick passenger ride, it’s epic ! Any detail or anything you can share, history or whatever ?
@@J4cko999 yes i have.
it won't let me type my email address!
There I was thinking you were just walking past that CRX... I should've had more faith.
Blunt rotation of Lotus Eletre adverts on every Late Brake Show clip here in Sweden. Must be chucking money at it
Nice t-shirt!, didn`t know you were into skateboarding too...
Cars and skating, my 2 favorite things!

Jonny,
You have very similar taste me me.... CRX, Integrale, and the S65!! Love 'em all!
The muddy field doesn't seem the best location for a classic car auction.
And beside an airport , I'd score the location 40 out of 135 points.
Love the idea of Wogan behind the wheel when the VTEC kicked in and that CRX is tasty, but it's not quite a Prelude 2.2.
A Friday show, what a treat! The blue Sunbeam Lotus is a top car but I would go for the BMW 635csi M. :)
In the style of Uri Geller I was urging YOU to look at the Capri sandwiched between the BMW and Escort.
Not angry with you, just disappointed, also bent all the fork that I was eating my dinner with.
Thanks again Mr Smith.
You’ve got to love a late brake show auction preview 👍🏻
Should join up with Harry's Garage and do a duet!
That’s my dad’s lotus sunbeam! He’s still got it now ❤❤
Some lovely cars in the sale. I hope the weather is good, that field looks like it could be very muddy!
