Just so you know this week's resurrection car is in this video 😮😮😮 but you've already all seen it a million times so who cares 😂 This is one of three midweek videos that will be out during the next few weeks Busy busy busy! 🙏🏼❤️
Any possibility of a return appearance by the other Ben? I've been saying to folks for a while now that all you need is a couple of good co-hosts and you could be the next Top Gear. Tower of Power and some of the other videos have a definite Top Gear challenge / adventure vibe to them.
Love this channel man, like you I used to love tinkering with cars but since owning a house I just have no disposable income! I’d love something to tinker with again someday
#Frontera Little key opens the spare wheel cover. Unless you press the button to the left of the steering wheel, you can't engage 4x4. Needs to be done with the wheels straight ahead and below 60 mph.
Hi Ben. I understand your reasons, but its a shame about the Sunbeam. I would have liked to have seen you work your magic on that. Keep the content coming, I never miss.
An interesting video. I liked the Sunbeam and might have been tempted but it needed just a little bit too much work. As for the Austin and Rover well let’s just say I think you need to be a little more discriminating in your acquisitions!
My mum has had two Rover 25's. First one was petrol and was written off by a bloody deer and the second one was a 2L Diesel, that engine was bullet proof.....and flood proof.
I had an S Reg Rover 25 2L Diesel, it had the Perkins diesel I think. I bought it in 2005 on 125K miles, by 2008 I sold it on 150K miles and all it needed was a CV boot replacement. Great car and felt more powerful than the Golf Mk5 1.6 I replaced it with.
Shame about the Sunbeam, but I agree it's not as vibey as the Rover or Panhard, hopefully them lads will do it up. I still think there's a place for the older cars on this channel, but it's gotta be the right ones i suppose.
I wish the used car market in Ontario, Canada was similar to your location. If you want a good laugh, checkout some used car prices around Toronto. Vehicles that have no place being put back on the road are sold for a few thousand bucks.
You’re close enough to Baxenden car breakers. They paid good $$$ for scrap cars and also could be a good source of parts for other projects. They also do TH-cam and might be down for a colab 👍👍👍
I bought a honda C70 years ago ben with a fantastic reg.HEN.147.N that reg would of been ideal for stephen hendry the snooker player can that be transferred from a motorbike to a car please can someone let me know❤❤❤
The rover25 would have been perfect for a detailing-channel. It's been a juwel - for their channel. BTW: After a friend could not sell his manor, he followed my suggestion and changed price from 250k to 650k. And it is sold. Even upwards is always possible! Even with cars!
I reckon I'd fix a puncture to sell a car , piece of mind and all that . Only a few quid in the scheme of things and potential buyers might say fuc* it , I can't be arsed fixing it . 🤔🤔
I hope the Rover 25 hasn’t been scrapped! I didn’t see the eBay auction! Doh!! Let me know - there’s a student who needs a motor! Oh… it’s at the scrap yard already 😢
Absolutely love your videos, so entertaining, you are hilarious at times and very talented. Are you actually trying to do this as a business though, seems more like an expensive hobby to me!? Maybe with some sponsorship it could work, but I can't see all the time and effort you spend on the cars even breaking even. Hope you can continue doing it though as this is one of the best shows on TH-cam in my opinion!
So Ben was it an Austin 1100 or 1300 😂. Can’t believe you paid so much for it in the first place but how we’re you to know the rear axle would fall off. PML at your comment about the ‘nice angles’ of the 25 😂
Ah shame about the rover 25, i am surprised that no one bought that for body panels, for an MGZR 160 racer. Or for spare parts to box off, due to how rare those are now on the roads. 15 years ago that engine would have been worth £50 all day long. The rover scene must be completely dead now, sadly.
Look, I woke up my offer to £150 for the Frontera not sure if someone wants a V6 Vauxhall that does about 17 miles to the gallon if you’re lucky but I love you channel
Hello my brother. Been watching you for a while and enjoy your content, where the Austin is concerned you have a k series rover get all working parts from the Rover on to the Austin and do a classic sleeper. i am subscribed and tick everything i watch my brother. keep up the good work. do a vote on line to see if the rest of the classic family thinks the same. take care my brother.
Haha you know how to keep us entertained 😂 , i hate selling cars im shite at it , have a 96 audi a4 b5 estate for sale atm for pennies but cant get it gone , fancy it? Lol

That eBay search history was hilarious Ben 😂😂 👌🏽
Never know when you'll need a good piece of knicker elastic to fix that broken fan belt.
Because you like 'Vauxhall Frontera's' we think you will like 'Ladies Underwear'.
Not adding travel, fuel and labour into the equation never stopped Wheeler Dealers making a profit.😆
🤣
But they were making a tv show with adverts watched by millions! Ben seems to be doing out of his own pocket!
Loving your ebay search history hahahaha
You forgot to factor in my sisters homemade cakes and the quality bantz when you collected the Austin and Rover. Gotta be a big plus!! 😅
An early thumbs up due to the comedy eBay search. 😀
Thanks Ben. Your videos are, without question, an unmitigated joy to watch. 😉👍
That fully functioning K-series was probably worth more than the entire car being the rarest of rarities in that it hadn't utterly grenaded, yet... :P
I'm surprised you have not restored the camper van, big market for those.
The ad should consist of the overlooked point that the seller is an international celebrity!!!!.
Would it not make sense to rectify the 3 minor problems prior to selling ? Ad stating no problems seems better than listing several minor problems.
Love this channel man, like you I used to love tinkering with cars but since owning a house I just have no disposable income! I’d love something to tinker with again someday
I’m gonna guess the small key with the fronterra is for the spare wheel box.
#Frontera Little key opens the spare wheel cover. Unless you press the button to the left of the steering wheel, you can't engage 4x4. Needs to be done with the wheels straight ahead and below 60 mph.

Hi Ben. I understand your reasons, but its a shame about the Sunbeam. I would have liked to have seen you work your magic on that. Keep the content coming, I never miss.
Great video as always! Interesting to see some things going had much the same recently with my big clear out
Can’t wait for the Xmas sticker album. Thanks for the shout out in a previous video about my great suggestion 😂

Hi Ben,Thankyou for giving me confidence to sell my old Merc 4x4 .After seeing the superb condition of your Fleet .Great Video 🤩🤓
I could be wrong, but you sound like your calling the Vauxhall a Fontella, it's actually a Frontera.
Shame about the Sunbeam, but I agree it's not as vibey as the Rover or Panhard, hopefully them lads will do it up. I still think there's a place for the older cars on this channel, but it's gotta be the right ones i suppose.
I think that small extra key for the Frontera is for the spare wheel cover on the tailgate .
Also you must mention how much MOT it has Left
Tried to listen to wheels and wings to fall asleep too, but found it too entertaining 😅
I wish the used car market in Ontario, Canada was similar to your location. If you want a good laugh, checkout some used car prices around Toronto. Vehicles that have no place being put back on the road are sold for a few thousand bucks.
Cheeky midweek video, nice one. Ps nice knickers. 😂😂👍🏻
Ben, check the oil in the transfer case.
Have you sold the scimitar yet ben❤
Mate if the 4x4on the frontera doesn’t work then it’s not fixed worth about 200 quid
You’re close enough to Baxenden car breakers. They paid good $$$ for scrap cars and also could be a good source of parts for other projects. They also do TH-cam and might be down for a colab 👍👍👍
I bought a honda C70 years ago ben with a fantastic reg.HEN.147.N that reg would of been ideal for stephen hendry the snooker player can that be transferred from a motorbike to a car please can someone let me know❤❤❤
Arthur Daley could learn a thing or two from you Ben! Thanks for the midweek bonus episode!
Loved it mate veery interesting....Nice to get a bonus that doesn't itch......😮😮😊
What's this a cheeky mid-week tasty classics video!!! Oh Mr. Ben this is like being at the ambassadors reception ... you are really spoiling us!
We are not worthy
Those are wheeler dealer figures, Ha Ha. Ben keep it up love it!!
As a Spotify listener. Not what I expected Wynne to look like 🤣
Another great video. Looking forward to seeing what's next. Have a good week. Marc from Australia 🇦🇺
Ben your views please on the Z20LET GM 2.0T 200BHP Engine. Same engine as the VXR Z20LEH. Zafira GSI,Astra GSI 2001-2005
So we're not going to see the Frontera Pentertrate the ring next year?
Another great video Ben looking forward to it the next video 👍👌
The rover25 would have been perfect for a detailing-channel. It's been a juwel - for their channel.
BTW: After a friend could not sell his manor, he followed my suggestion and changed price from 250k to 650k.
And it is sold. Even upwards is always possible! Even with cars!
Extra vid. Cool.
Ben I would definitely like to but the gorgeous Audi TT if you could ever bring yourself to part with it???
Profit , yayyyyyy , what's coming next ?
I reckon I'd fix a puncture to sell a car , piece of mind and all that . Only a few quid in the scheme of things and potential buyers might say fuc* it , I can't be arsed fixing it . 🤔🤔
Didn't see any of the cars on ebay
I really do like your sense of humour...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very cool to see you sell your cars.
Great episode Ben, sorry to see the Rover 25 scrapped
I hope the Rover 25 hasn’t been scrapped! I didn’t see the eBay auction! Doh!! Let me know - there’s a student who needs a motor!
Oh… it’s at the scrap yard already 😢
It's hard to sell when getting nearer to holiday time, people saving for hols,
Absolutely love your videos, so entertaining, you are hilarious at times and very talented. Are you actually trying to do this as a business though, seems more like an expensive hobby to me!? Maybe with some sponsorship it could work, but I can't see all the time and effort you spend on the cars even breaking even. Hope you can continue doing it though as this is one of the best shows on TH-cam in my opinion!
Congratulations Ben, I see you hit your target of 50K Subscriber's
That sunbeam is a really cool car
Drop the Austin off at Matthewsons
I hope the Rover 25 hasn’t been scrapped! I didn’t see the eBay auction! Doh!! Let me know - there’s a student who needs a motor!

Ive seen american mechanics use evaporust down the cylinders to free the engine up.
Newly subbed , really enjoying the content thanks 👍🏻
Another great vid.glad you made a profit lol .do you own the orange camper van Ben?
The b5 passat estate was the best shape .
Move em on for more stock well done ben
That sound of the 1.4 k Siri sacrilege I want that engine
Are you going to be selling the Passat Ben,,
Is there an audio version of the podcast that we can download? I normally listen to podcasts at work or when I'm driving, cheers!
It's on Spotify if that helps!
Ah shame about the rover 25, i am surprised that no one bought that for body panels, for an MGZR 160 racer. Or for spare parts to box off, due to how rare those are now on the roads. 15 years ago that engine would have been worth £50 all day long. The rover scene must be completely dead now, sadly.
Oooh spoiling us now Ben. You cheeky little wassname you 🤣🥳
This is great, really enjoyed this video 👍🏻
I do hope that that Sunbeam hasn't gone off to be a banger racer.
Proper editing!!! Quentin Tarantino vibes
It wasn't so long ago every other car on the streets was a rover! Seems like yesterday 🥺
OMG Ben what are you doing to us and midweek special loving it
OMG 😢Hope it’s not a CLOSING DOWN SALE 😁, racing at the Nurburgring ain’t cheap 😂
Look, I don’t know how far away you are from me but I am genuinely interested in the Rover 25 engine for 50 quid and you can scrap the shell
I would of re auctioned the rover or sold it a breaker
Brilliant Ben keep it up
I would take the frontier but I am only 14
Is that lt31 yours
Ah man, if I’d have known the Rover 25 was up for grabs, I would have taken it off your hands
Look, I woke up my offer to £150 for the Frontera not sure if someone wants a V6 Vauxhall that does about 17 miles to the gallon if you’re lucky but I love you channel
Great video as allways😀
Body swap the basil Fawlty Austin on to the rover 25 floorpan

It's hardly surprising you didn't make much profit....your too truthful 😂 0:02 😂😂. Great video though...
Love this channel
Is that a Vauxhall, Suzuki, Isuzu Rodeo, or Honda Passport ?
I think every classic car nut like me is good at buying them but not selling them 😂
Beers on you Ben 😂
Abs light is mot fail and may not be "minor"
