Welcome back all,
In this video I head up to Anglia Car Auctions for their August summer sale, which had over 250 classic cars lined up to go under the hammer. I wandered around the auction house recording anything that tickles my fancy, with this video featuring a wide variety of makes and models. I am a huge classic ford fan and obviously they still make up a big proportion of this video but who can blame me when there's so many temptations to look around!
In the outro of this video I explain my 'picks of the auction' and I would love to know, what you guys would've taken home yourselves theoretically speaking.

51min video...we're spoiled
I’m glad you enjoyed the slightly longer video! 😎
Oooh here we go, nice Sunday viewing, over 50 minutes of lovely cars at auction. I don’t go because I can’t control myself. I’d spend a fortune 😂
I admit it’s hard to keep my hands in my pockets 🤣 Glad you enjoyed the video!
Really nice variety of such lovely old classics Mitch... thanks for your coverage and work you put in to these vlogs. 👍
Thank you for the comment, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 😎
Well done for filling in with Guy when they had a computer glitch, very professional.
👍
Thank you, I’m glad you liked the Live fill in 👍🏻 Was very unexpected but I enjoyed it 😎
Ahhh 😁😁 Thanks Mitch. 51 minutes too. Sending gratitude from Bangkok. Keep them coming Brother
Thank you for watching from Bangkok! Glad you enjoyed the longer video 😁
I used to look at one of those Nissan 200SX's every day when i was younger, lovely shape. Good vid to see what everything is going for...
Had one of these for 10yrs, lovely fast car!
I was certainly drawn in by the 200sx, I’d love to have a drive in one! 👍🏻
Was a good weekend with some great cars going through, seen you with Yur old man and the Mrs.
Thanks again mate.
Cheers mate! Glad you enjoyed the video 😎
That Cortina was lovely and a bargain at £2100. Thank you, again, Mitch for a really interesting look at Bargain Hunting at Classic Car Auctions. You're an absolute star!
I’m glad you liked the video! Yes I agree the cortina was a steal 😎
Drive a classic for the enjoyment, not for earning money. My 1972 Hillman Avenger isn't worth much, but it sure gets noticed.
The 74 Vauxhall Magnum is beautiful A gem
Mitch I thinks it’s such a nice touch that you put the hammer price and the sold price in. That Merc estate was a beaut and a bargain fairdos 👌🏻
Absolutely Loved that Thames van especially with a slightly ratty interior I like them like that. brilliant vid Mitch 👍
Thank you pal, yes the Thames van was very nice 😎
I love a Capri. Who doesn’t love a Capri, great cars. That 200SX was stunning as well.
Them calrtons are so nostalgic, i love a big old high power ( for the time ) car , great video mitch ,
Thank you pal, I completely agree with you on the Carlton 👍🏻
Thank you mitch your the right man for thease sales you knowledge helps the viewers 👍
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the watch 😁
Green Mini van what a belter that looked
It was an amazing example! 😎
Your videos, without doubt, are the best auction videos on TH-cam.
Followed through from start to finish. Excellent stuff!
Thank you very much, this means a lot to me! I’m glad you enjoy the auction videos 😁
Green mini van for me. My cousin had a red one with a black roof back in 1975, when I was still only 15, I loved him taking me out for a ride in that van.
Great memories! The green mini was immaculate 👌🏻
Jag S Types of that era are straight 6’s. My Dad had a couple of them back in the day.
Just started watching mitch...spent many years at a ford dealership...am a bit old now...like the way you talk about the fords ...👍👍
Hope you enjoyed the video! 👍🏻
Love that Ford Thames van too. Mint. As is that Carlton GSi, lovely 👌🏻
They were great additions to the sale!
For me the capri lasor white great watch thanks for the content you are a great person to watch very informative 👍
Its a Capri 2.0s not Laser.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked the video and the Capri 😎
@@trevdean540sorry for the sinful mistake 62 and didn't have my glasses on my deepest apologies 😢
Great
Ford classic video .
Content lacks choices .
Respect.
Glad you liked the video!
Imported Oct' 2024 wow Cortinas had time shift travel lol good video Mitch
I noticed that date i think he meant to say 2023 as you probably know. He needs to stay off the glue 😅😅
It’s magic 🤪 No my mistake, the cortina was imported in 2023 👍🏻
Controversial, but to me that Scorpio is a beaut. The darkened headlights in the facelift, the spec, the colour, the leather, the engine, the ride. They’re great cars. Defo would have gone for that. I love a left field Ford, this and the Probe
I completely agree, the Scorpio is an unloved classic! 👍🏻
I had one in the late nineties, not that spec it was a two litre and burgundy, lovely to drive but a challenge to look at with those headlights
@@nodrog630 Probably nicer being sat in it than being outside looking at it.
Love the video, this is the first time I’ve seen ur channel brilliant stuff 👌
That Carlton is absolutely ace. 🤩
Isn’t it just 😁
That Granada Scorpio was an absolute bargain, even us ugly ones can find a home 😂👍🏻🏴
Great video Mitch! The little 106 Rallye gets my vote😎 Someone got a bargain with that Volvo though thought it would have gone for more
Cheers mate! I loved that 106 Rallye & I also thought they Volvo went so cheap 😆
Loved all the vehicles.. the mini van done it for me! .. what a beautiful restoration. Coming from a Ford man! Love the auction vids as always Mitch. Keep up the good work. 💯👍
Thank you mate, glad you enjoyed the video! I agree with you, the min was was amazing 😎
Great video. Festival of the Unexceptional, Radwood and other similar events certainly driving the values of 80s/90s cars, just hope they don't get too high for younger enthusiasts entering the scene
I feel they’re still very reasonable and you can jump in a 90’s “modern classic” with just a few grand in your pocket 👍🏻
For me the star of this auction was that mini van.
I rolled one of them in the early 90's 😅.
It was in amazing condition 😍
Superb videos and great picks too!
Keep up the great work.
🚗💨
Thank you! Lots more auction content to come 😁
Great stuff. That Granada Scorpio was a steal. Thanks Mitch.
Glad you enjoyed, I agree the Scorpio was a steal! 😎
The MK1 escort is gorgeous and I've always loved the MK1 focus Rs
Wow really enjoyed looking back in time, great coverage. Little peug
Glad you enjoyed the video! 😁
Well done helping Guy with a bit of banter , when someone dropped an ice cream in the server 🍦
Thank you, it was a great experience 😁
My pick Mitch was the dark blue Porsche at 15.27 next to the Fiat 127. Yogi.
That Cresta would look sick on bags and wide wheels ❤
Agreed! 😎
great video,i think the mercedes 300 was a bargain ,of you need a 4x4, estate to use as workhouse and the money spent by previous owner ,was amazing price soon it be tax an mot exempt
Great video.... Enjoy your style and presentation. Good job. 👍
I was telling my wife what each car was before you said🤣🤣🤣. She told me to shut up.
You know your cars for a young lad 👍
Nothing wrong with that, showing your knowledge 🤣👍🏻
@@Mk2Mitch I know,but she’s been with me for 32 years.
The best one was when I just saw the 3 coloured stripe on the white rallye. And I told her what it was
There are still bargains to be had if you're patient enough. I loved that Volvo too - I think it's the angular look that grabbed me.
I agree! Yes the Volvo was cool & nice at that price 😆
Spot on Mitch thanks for sharing, I agree about the Scorpio, that 300 Merc was also a cheap car I used to have one for a good few years it was bomb proof, best of the ones you showed I think it might be the Scorpio, thanks again mate really enjoyed the video
Glad you enjoyed the classics I featured in the video! Thank you for watching 😁
The "2001" Ford Scorpio is actually a 1998 car that had a private plate on from new and when it was sold at 3 years old, DVLA mistakenly gave it a "Y" plate instead. A very well known car in the Granada/Scorpio community... in fact, I nearly bought this car myself about 15 years ago. I owned about 11 Scorpio Cosworths over the years before moving on to S Class Mercs :)
That’s very interesting, thank you for commenting! 👍🏻
Great vid. The wheels on the escort van are from the Orion Encore special edition from 92/93 ish (sad car knowledge from my younger years!) . Lee from CarUK did a review on this auction too- another interesting van appeared there too 😜
Thank you for your knowledge, it’s not sad to us! 😆 Yes I did see him watching the live…
Great video, just subbed. Will be going over some of your older videos. These are the sort of car that get me going 👍
Thank you for subscribing! There’s plenty more of these auction videos on my channel and new ones being uploaded monthly 😎
Loved the cars this time, my personal fave was the White Capri, loved the mk2 Rs2000, and the pug rallye. Nice nissan 200sx too.
Glad you enjoyed the selection I covered 👍🏻
I did see your camper go through on another YT's video and had to double check as i thought it was yours. All I thought at the time was omg I hope Mitch and Lauren drove that back home!!
Yes that was our camper that went through, didn’t meet the reserve!
@@Mk2Mitch I'm so pleased you had the good sense to reserve it because that was a pitiful offer they came up with. It seemed like there just wasn't the right buyers for it on the day.
Love the ford frog eye. Bargain for a lot of car. Good coverage mitch
Thank you pal, I agree! Lots of car for the money 😎
Back in the Early 2000 I had a L reg 106 Really same colour paint and remember the pedals been very small and using the side of my foot to drive but that was 1.3 and you had to keep the revs Up top to keep it Moving
That blue "TOPLESS" mini looks like it belongs from a lord of the manor estate like a DB5 could.
Great Job Mates . loved it
I had a 4.1 L mk4 Cortina, and a 3.0 L V6 mk1 Escort when i was a teenager.
Nice green Taunus too, bargain. The topless mini was mental, but cool.
Ya need to get that Escort finished mate. Lots of subscribers including me. Following you for that.
@@Leedy007 will be cracking on with it very soon 👍🏻
Hope it goes well. I know what it's like. Especially when you've done a days hard graft. Nearly finished rebuilding my mk2 RS2000. Keep up the good work Mitch 👍
seen a few of your auction videos always interesting
Glad you find the videos interesting! 😁
Ah happy memories of the fiat 127 my mate has one I’m 53 I think I must have been around 18 when we managed to 7 it might have been 8 people on a short journey what a laugh god I wish I was young again 😂👊🐝
I would happily daily that 300K merc. Proper useful lovely Mercedes. What a lovely car
It would certainly make a solid daily driver!
Ford capri 2.0S,love those cars,2nd choice mk11 RS 2000 escort🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great video. I will keep watching. Thanks.
Thank you for watching 😁
I love that Escort mk1😊..i had on of them a 1.3 mexico
Nice! I’d love to own one 😎
Keep up with the fords you’re doing great job buddy 👍🤙🫡🙌👏👋🏻💪😇
Cheers mate, much appreciated 😎
ST170 had one for 2 years... would have another :) still very good value
The Jag S Type has a twin overhead cam straight 6 mate, not a V8, although it does look like a V8 at first glance. The Scorpio V6 and Ford ST 170 were brammers. I'm surprised the latter didn't fetch a good price, especially with the one lady owner. Maybe it was Doris Schumacher !
Thanks Mitch, another great video👌👍
You’re more than welcome, thank you for watching!
Great auction vid as always Mitch, well done and thank you.
Thank you pal, glad you enjoyed 👍🏻
I was gonna go as I live in norfolk but watched it live on the tube. Better edited like this
We haven’t got to October 2024 yet 🤪🤣
With a 51 minute feature video, there’s always one mistake I say…🤣 what vehicle was it?
@@Mk2Mitch The imported Cortina. I’ll let you off as you’re cute 🤪😜
He is from the future
If only it was a DeLorean 😂😂
Fantastic video mate! Keep up with the great content
Thank you, appreciate the comment 👍🏻
Love these videos Mitch. Keep ‘em coming.
And tell your Dad JT said hi.
I hope he’s well.
Cheers mate, will do! 👍🏻
@@Mk2Mitch👍
Another great video 👍
Yeah i saw your vehicle there. I mentioned it on your facebook page. It was also featured in another you tubers video
Yes but unfortunately it sold provisional 👍🏻
MR2 in white or Blue Escort for me, so many decent looking cars at decent money like the Scorpio and Volvo.
I agree, some real affordable classics 👍🏻
Escort RS1600 was my dream car, could not afford one then, or now!
RS 2000 is just a gorgeous car
The white Mk1 Mister 2 looked great.
It certainly did! 😎
Top video. Great Sergio Mitch 😊
Cheers mate, got to keep the 80’s attire on point 😎
I'll go to the November auction bargains to be had in winter
That Carlton GSi is going to be a future classic, I can see the value of them at least doubling in the next few years.
I agree, certainly a desirable classic! 👍🏻
I think the alloys off the blue fiesta van are from a fiesta finesse, but I might be wrong, great video again.
Great insight on classic car prices and how the demands by enthusiast are still here.
What would an A1 original condition Toyota Mr2 GT turbo T-bar with split mag original wheels Japanese import go for on sale today, approx mileage 56.000 original miles on the clock. Rarely used. And not used in the last 3 yrs garaged. Thanks and appreciated
That was fun. I wanted to know about a couple you didn’t cover - that Citroen GS caught my eye - but my pick of your pick was the S-type Jag - like a MkII but with IRS and a bigger boot. And an XK straight six. Bit old-farty, but still.
By the way, you were expecting that Volvo 850 to ‘go like stink’. Nope, it’s a good engine and enough for the car, but it’s got well over 150k and it’s dragging a big, boxy Volvo body. The T5 and other mad turbo versions were quick but not this one.
Hi, the Citroen GSX also caught my eye! I feature it in the previous ACA auction but it did not sell. That’s why it was re-entered into this sale. If you’d like to see the GSX I’ll leave you the link! Skip to 25:51 th-cam.com/video/qeZb9VCa3us/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RRc-vxoobIF1zeeD
Thank you for doing the volvo 850!!!
Your welcome! 😎
That restored green mini van was the star of the auction but it's too perfect to drive anywhere. The RS2000 was nice but the condition wasn't worth that much money, I'd have the vxr 220, a rare low mileage fun car.
Agreed, I recon the VX220 is so much fun to drive! 😁
Hey Mitch, it was great to see you helping out when the Internet went down, another great interview, that Mini van was super nice for sure. Gutted about your Van though after all that work polishing it up, looked real good though, did you let it go or maybe you will put it through in the next sale? Great Vlog as usual mate.
Thank you pal, it was great fun to be in the ACA live and help out! The van didn’t meet its reserve but did sell…😎
Hi Mitch, you asked which car we liked in the auction, for me it has to be the Vauxhall Carlton 3.0 24v GSI , and what a car a bargain, if I had the money I would of bought it
Great pick of the auction! It was a lovely car and they are becoming very sort after 😎
Great Video. Very Interesting.
Glad you enjoyed!
The Vauxhall Magnum gets my vote.
What a compelling video to watch, I remember most of those old cars. Wonderful. Really nice commentary too, very pleasant viewing ... subbed! My favourite car was one I spotted that you didn't mention ... a red Ford Mustang, that would have had my money!
Great format, walk around with good description then under the hammer with price and sale update. Not the usual boring 2 hour walk around the cars TH-cam video
Glad you enjoyed the format and the way create these videos! 😎
I saw you on the live 😅 top end is still selling well, but everyman and obscure classics are on their bum. That said, they didn't have much top end...
I thought most were fetching good prices! Some bargains thrown in 👍🏻
Mitch the Jag was not a V8, they were fitted with a staight 6 twin cam.
@@waynegoode1 my bad 🤦🏻♂️
Some super cars there owned z fes back in the day .
The 16i well under price even with the issues
Vauxhall Charlton gsi for me , lovely car
Certainly was lovely! 😁
Include some MX5's if you can next time
I’ll try and find one at the next auction 👍🏻
Ive had loads of TAUNUS 2.3 and 2.8 they are European 2 door door we didnt get them but Europe got millions .i bought mine in Berlin .
That’s brilliant, it was certainly interesting to look around at the auction 😁
Very good 👍
Thank you 👍🏻
Noooo that cortina I wanted that it went for a snip😢😵😫
