Arguably, this is where old TG cars belong. Alive, well, and being enjoyed by enthusiasts. I dread to think what would happen if they ended up at Beaulieu. Talking of which, Richard Porter said that someone at the BBC is allegedly fighting hard to find the exhibits new homes - so they *may* not be destroyed after all.
Love these videos. Thank you. As an owner of an original Max Power car (Project 2000) I would love you to do a Max Power cars where are they now video please. J
I saw Richard's BMW at an auction years ago with a grey leather interior. I didn't bid on it because I had seen the Top Gear episode & knew how bad it's condition was from the ADAC inspection!
Considering the M3 was a salvage title, what happens to it isn’t that big of a deal IMO. There’s a fair few of them and ironically the cheapest of the three in 2024. I’m also sad that whoever bought it post-TG swapped the interior. It was hideous and that made it special. The 190E though.. that would be a shame to lose, especially considering how desirable/appreciated they’ve become. I hope it’s just parked up in a dry place. Hearing that the Cossie is still meticulously maintained warms my heart though. The best car of the three and it’s funny that James’ said that they were becoming “cool and collectible” in 2010. The BTCC nostalgia is back with a vengeance.
@@Rhys-h8g Early Mondeos & MK5 & MK6 Escorts are still cheap but if they follow Sierra values (all Sierras are now climbing) & MK3 & MK4 Escorts (now getting very popular) then in years to come they will go up. Focus ST170 & Mondeo ST are already increasing in price.
I think i can recall seeing the Sierra mentioned in the RS Owners Club magazine, as in, it being owned by a member and being on display at a show somewhere. I cannot remember when that was.
This video came on my feed a few days ago watched it always wondered what happened to the m3 i highly doubt they would've let a death trap car on the road,
You should get the app that Robert Downey Jr set the record for getting the most followers in a certain time as every time I mention the app the comment gets deleted. Then I can message you with info about all these cars.

Hopefully we will have an update on Top Gear World cars soon.

It would be great to know the current whereabouts of the 190E - good content as usual. Thanks!!

Oh yes, great video nigel, one of my favourite challenges with 3 awesome cats, shame you cant buy any of these that cheap now
Glad you enjoyed it
That 4900 advert for the cossie must have been a scammer ad. Very common.
Not impossible, but the pictures don't appear anywhere else, and scammers normally lift them from another ad?
@oscarsgarage447 could have been nicked off a forum
Sierra cossy for 5 k thats crazy
Shows how the market has changed... the Wheeler Dealers one sold for similar back around 2010
@oscarsgarage447 yeah I remember the maroon one, just makes you wonder what's worth buying now that's gunna rocket up in value

Maybe Martin Brundle bought the 190e 😉
He was a big fan of these!
Someone in my facebook friends owned the sierra cosworth for a little while i remember seeing a lot of posts about it in his ownership
You have my attention...
I think i can recall seeing the Sierra mentioned in the RS Owners Club magazine, as in, it being owned by a member and being on display at a show somewhere. I cannot remember when that was.
Somebody has sent me a copy of the article but sadly that owner I believe has passed away 😔
@oscarsgarage447 I hadn't heard about that, thank you.
I remember watching a website where they showed the 190E 2.3 painted black, but I don’t remember if it was unfortunately scrapped for parts
Hope not but maybe it was too far gone to save
I remember seeing it aswell on the top gear used cars website bit
I like searching for cars from the episodes
Keep up the good work Oscar
Nice video Oscar good research mate
Glad you enjoyed it
I have a few pictures from santa pod 2023 of clarksons cossie
This video came on my feed a few days ago watched it always wondered what happened to the m3 i highly doubt they would've let a death trap car on the road,
Look at the camera Dickhead ha ha love it, I do hope all three vehicles turn up again somewhere.
You should now make a video about boliva cars what happend to it
They were destroyed from what I understand.
Final comment really. Nice one guys

What app?
@lukeguilfoyle2425 begins with i
I suspect the cossie was sold in probate after a death.
Do you mean probate
@andyb3666 yes!
Now I understand it! It may have done as was told one owner had passed away.

Keep em coming
