There is alot of classic vehicles and some nice ones but the old escort MK2 estate has upset me sitting there rotting and the nice blue escort I would really like a old ford but they sell for silly money like that nova they say they all ways say they will restore them but they don't as to many sat there good explore 👍
The red escort estate at the start of the video is identical to one I owned in 1987 also saw an Austin Princess in there the old petrol gas guzzler had one of those too, soon got rid of it too big and bulky,also nice to see the Bedford CF ambulance drove the standard CF van in the 80's for a roadshow it could certainly do some speed if needed,and last but not least the good old Nova I rented one for a weekend away In Newcastle upon Tyne in 1992 on the way there I stopped at Washington services had to cross a glass bridge to go over the A1 to get back to the car and a local gang gave chase luckily I made it got the car started and away so it saved my bacon lol certainly can move those could.
Back in 1994, my driving instructor taught me to drive in his Nova 1.4 SR, bright red with grey 5-spoke hubcaps, (G547AOR). It absolutely shifted, great fun with seemingly endless torque. Also very well put together. it had over 120,000 miles at the time (late-1994) but was still like new inside and out.

@3.23 Leyland Terrier either TR650 (4 cylinder diesel) or TR738/750 (6 cylinder diesel), worked on many of them
That mess is going to take some cleaning up.
The blue fiesta on the trailer looks good

Sad state of affairs,but in todays political state most are for scrap. You would have to be mad to start Resto project with the cost of things.
Restoring or Hoarding ?
My thoughts exactly lol
Some will never be restored but others will
i bet if you went back in ten years it will be the same only rustier
