  • Autumn 2021 saw the VSCC (Vintage Sports Car Club) inaugural Cheshire Autumn Rally take place, so I decided to drive over and both take a look at the vintage and post-vintage classic cars that were due to take part, and also film the cars and crews heading off to begin this navigational rally.
    The vintage car world was well represented at the VSCC Cheshire Autumn Rally 2021, with the likes of Austin 7, Alvis 12/50 & 12/60, Bentley 3 Litre, Frazer Nash, Ford Model A, Dodge Brothers, MG, Gwynne, Star & Lagonda in attendance. Invites were also made available to owners of post-vintage, classic cars, and this section of the entry was represented by Volvo Amazon, Triumph TR3A, MGC GT, Minis, Alfa Romeo & Lancia Aurelia.
    Experienced road-rally entrants had a short time to plot their route once directions were made available, novices having longer to do their prep work before heading off onto the roads of Cheshire.
    This video takes a leisurely walk around the cars as they gathered at the start point, and then captures them heading away for the first leg of the day. I was especially interested in seeing the late-teens Dodge Brothers tourer, as mechanically it shares the same running gear as my '24 car.
    Comments welcomed as always (which of the classic & vintage cars shown would you want to have driven home in?).
    There are many many motoring-related videos now on the Old Classic Car channel, to see the list, please visit the following page:

    The battered old Austin is my all time favourite...I've driven 1970s cars that looked maintained as that. Super, and thanks again.

    Thanks for the walk around.
    Always enjoyable to see what's in the paddock. That Alfa sprint was my favourite I think. Italian curves, in all the right places. The well traveled Model A Ford has seen more of Australia than I have, And I live here !
    Keep up the good work, I'm enjoying your Sundays "off".

      Dickey Seat in the UK, Rumble Seat in the US - I think! thanks for watching

    What a great line up of some very lovely vehicles. Excellent video, as always - thanks for sharing it :-)

    What a great collection of exciting cars, the Frazer Nash and Lagonda how superb, in the contemporary cars would be the MGCGT

    That lagonda looked incredible

      So so nice agreed, I'd be terrified of owning it though in case it got damaged, scruffy cars are less stressful to be around - especially in my garage! thanks for watching

    Very enjoyable, thank you for posting. I really liked that well worn Austin 7.

    Coming from the Black Country myself I think I will go with the Star or maybe the Sunbeam but that Vauxhall shown early in the upload looked good.

    Your knowledge of vintage kit is very impressive. Nice video.

      Cheers Simon, I'm not too well up on vintage but perhaps I hide it well :-)

    I love Italian cars, hint hint!

    • @oldclassiccarUK
      @oldclassiccarUK  Před 2 lety

      I did the one Italian Cars vid, but when I get enough material I'll do a second :-) thanks for watching

    Great Vid, Rick. The two cars that stand out for me are the red Lagonda (breathtaking) and the oily rag Austin (fantastic). The Dodge Roadster looked sharp. Overall a nice gathering of interesting cars. It's nice to see the oily rag stuff out and about.

    Lots of very attractive vintage and classic motors out and about. What's not to like?

    Thanks for that video it was one of the best I’ve seen 🤗

    I Nice walk around that. The Alpha Julieta was a really good example, I wounder if the owner was called Julieta? Many of these vintage cars looked well prepared for the trial even though one or two appeared to be falling apart. Some even had good navigatetores in the form of dogs, they just follow the smell of the fuel from the car in front! Nice video and thank you for sharing. 👍

    • @oldclassiccarUK

      Glad it was of interest, yes the little Alfa was a fab machine

    Was that Lynx at 16.50 supercharged?

  • @funlifebananas1061

    Great selection.l owned a couple of series 3 sovereigns,a 6 and a 12 which were Jags but would have been Daimler’s if they’d been a bit older. My favourite is the Majestic Major which could outrun a mk 10 Jag much to their embarrassment at the time. I can’t help thinking that the mk10 would have been much more of a success in America if they’d fitted the glorious Daimler v8.

    Love the sound of that Bentley, was the appearance of that Route Master random or was it on the run?

      Hi, it was just driving past in the distance so I grabbed a few seconds of it driving along to include here. Thanks for watching

  • @jamesbassett1484

    I'll take the Alfa.

    The Sunbeam at first glance it looked like a Bentley .

    Why do i want to watch wealthy people enjoying their lives. I can't afford this stuff. whats the point anymore.

      While I suppose some of the owners in this video are of comfortable means, that might not be the case for everyone, perhaps they prioritise a car they enjoy driving over other monthly outgoings that many others take for granted, such as various subscriptions to TV (Sky, Netflix), fancy phone contracts, eating out several times a week, finance repayments on the latest new car etc. Lose all the non-essential stuff and owning an interesting old car becomes a more viable proposition for many people.
