When life was alot better, and cars too, now days cars are just ugly and all techy, these new ones are just getting worse and EV crap that's coming up now which is ruin for the gen and no good for future, its all for money, gov wants to ripp us off by taxing older cars and when these "future eletric shit comes", then they gonna tax them like 10 times more, its all bs now days, no one cares about anyone, not many people are genuine or realistic anymore, youngsters are getting either penalised with rules and brain washed with these so called new developments that are no good to us other then rich and politicians as always they benefit.
We do need to think about the environment but I do see strength in what you say. A lot of it is just a tick box exercise without any genuine concern above how they can financially benefit from it.
A lot of mention about foreign cars but take a close look at the people in those cars. I dont think I saw one person of colour. My god what has happened to our country?-
@@simonjon3634 You are a very ignorant individual sir. Ignorance breeds hatred so please educate yourself.

Fascinating how even the most humdrum scenes are so interesting to watch nowadays.

Cars actually looked like cars instead of bloated blobs
Yes, your right, and something else, there are lots of different coloured cars as well.
Incredible to see your late 80s ford escorts and sierras mixed in with some late 70s motors, amazing how times change so much
Watching cars without air bags in slow moving traffic makes me feel strangely at home and nostalgic. Saw a few F reg cars so probably 1987 .
1988
@@scruffylee 1989
@@NR-oc3ht F reg was Aug 88 - Jul 89 so you're both right!!

@@stevedawson256 two bad lots together
The Sunderland type nissan bluebird looks the latest car on here F635NLX so must be later than August 1988
he polution was insane in this roundabout. You can see the fumes
Latest registrations seem to be F, so it'd be around 1988 probably
...or early 1989.
Fso Polonez @ 01:50.
😊
DVLA says it was registered in 1987 and last taxed in 1993...
I didn’t see a car to my knowledge newer than an E Reg, which probably means at a guess this is either 87 or 88

Just shows you how much foreign cars had taken over compared to the 1970s.
Yeah many british fords and rovers, vauxhalls, leyland, bedford and austins roamin around
People finally saw the light! lol
Cars were less uniform back then.
@@_B.M_ Great inventions by white people. 👍👍👍
@@stringer-ik1pc wtf?
One of the cars is an F-reg, so I’ll say this is the winter of ‘88/‘89.
Dent in the passenger's door of that white Astra van right near the beginning! ☺
