One of my friends had one of these in the 70s, bought it to my house for some repairs. New master cylinder, wheel cylinders shoes etc etc. After i had replaced it all bled the system got a firm pedal I took it out for a test. Omg the first corner I came too I braked, pressed a little harder then panicked using full leg and arm strength on steering wheel to get around the corner. Wasn't going that fast but what an experience. I should add at this time I was driving my 1275 gt Austin ado with very powerful servo brakes. I called my mate Phil he took car for test drive after i had explained my experience. He came back telling me brakes are much improved. 😂😅😢. Moral of the tail is don't assume any car will drive or brake like your own. Enjoying the vlogs 😊

Beautiful car. And sooo many memories of my Courting Days!!!
Beautiful classic Austin you have there 👍
How could cars be so simple, so under powered and yet so full of charm back then?
No problem
What a beautiful car, really nice how you shot this aswell.
Well I tried to do something a little different Cheers Steve 👋😊😊
My first car. ❤️
What a beautiful classic you have there. Love the camera work and excellent audio.
How does she cope with the modern ethanolic fuel? Do you use additives? 👍🏻
I'm thinking of buying an A30 / A35... Which engine would you suggest. The 800 or the larger and also, 2 or 4 door?
