I agree, the carbon footprint is lower the longer they last. Carbon produce by the production of a new car, its use for say 10 years and its recycling. If you have say a 20 year old car, if it hasn't been crashed or rotten, theres no reason why it shouldn't be on the road, once its maintained well. So, just make new replacement parts, not new cars.
I'd have expected nothing less than eclectic than this from Fuzz - top guy!
Couldn't wish to meet a nicer chap, he is local and a regular at our monthly classic car meet at the pub. Love the 541R and that little Austin 7 special is a belter.
Nice collection Fuzz. I agree, we should use classic car as much as possible, I have for years. Keep up the good work. Cheers Bob
Wow, what a cracking collection of classic vehicles. Amazing Fuzz.
Quote of the video "this car is green too, its been made once!!" 😎😎✌✌👌👌👍
Love just lurve your "use it" message Fuzz. and that Jensen is just lovely. Fibreglass body make running one in the modern world a little easier!
the way you communicate your message is always so clear and compelling!
Thank you Fuzz for showing us around your garage.
*Was a pleasure to film with you Fuzz! Can’t wait to film some more videos like this for the Landsail Channel in the future!*
*What sort of videos would you all like to see in the future?*
Hi Luke,
Can we have a toolbox tour from Fuzz please?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Stefano
Great collection and shows that you think beyond the normal classics territory.
Great philosophy, Fuzz: just drive them! That is why I prefer my all-original Citroën 2CV, with all its accumulated "life lessons" over a perfectly restored example. If I get another scratch, I don't lose any sleep over it. That does NOT mean that I ignore or abuse the old girl, but she gets driven. Cheers from Canada!
This gentlemen is the Yoda of cars, love this guys skill sets. 😎😎✌✌👌👌👍👍
Love Fuzz, great guy, great garage and fleet 😁👍
Great collection from a firm favourite . Thankyou Fuzz
That Jenson is a dream car for me…. So classic! 😎
Thanks Fuzz nice to see your car collection.
Interesting collection
And behind the garage are his 10 Ferrari's! Great video, agree with enjoying your classics.
Thanks for sharing Fuzz, great collection.
So pleased to see Gumdrop!
A lovely eclectic mix and all being used.
*Excellent, the 541 looked very proper at Bicester a few weeks ago, and nice to see pre-war cars being appreciated* 👍
What a legend! Real nice bloke and uses his cars too! Spot on
Love to see old cars and bikes being used as intended.
After watching several of the car resto programmes there is only one I watch anymore Car SOS, Fuzz is a very clever bloke and the best at what he does. Realy nice collection as well.
excellent collection & agree... they must be used.😎
Love the collection and love the garage. So good to see that the vehicles are used properly and not just show cars .
That Jensen is a fantastic looking car
Love the old Jensen
Dirty, old and beautiful 😳. I love that Jensen. 👍
Good to see you back 👍
Good choice of practical cars. Great to see the Riley 9, can cover a lot of distance in a day in comfort. In my 9 Tourer all day at 90 Km /hr, with suitable gearing, (6 to 1) gearing drive all over Europe as they did for the Monte Carlo.
My Great-Uncle had a Jensen 541 just like that; same colour, same interior. Stored in my Nan's garage for years and years.
Thank you so much for sharing 😊
Love your S.O.S motor cycle sign , I had the pleasure of meeting Len Vale Onslow once 👍
Riley Monaco is lovely!
3:07 Dad had a book about add-on engines for bicycles (it was published in the early '50s, as was I) and something similar to that drop-down motor was in it. 70 years later and we do the same with electricity.
Great video
Nice tour, thanks for sharing 👍✌️😊💜 I love the Jenson! I don't like current batch of EVs, as lithium is a dirty supply chain from start to finish, all very emperor's new clothes imho. Fuzz is right about old cars and their CF, but tbh, Carbon Climate Change is an unproven theory, even in 4000 academic papers no absolute conclusions were drawn in fact we could be heading for solar minima - but I digress.
When I had classics they were used several times a week too. I got into classic cars as my uncle owned several sporting, special bodied, Rileys - they were hard to get into and out of too😄 Also next to my uncles' old workshop was Bob Houghton's they restored all sorts of high end classics, ex F1 cars etc back then, and on a Saturday morning, they'd sometimes let me in to sit in some of the cars when I was a kid. My cousin worked for them at one time some years later, they now specialise in Ferraris. Happier times back then😊👍✌️💜
Nice to see a mixed collection and one not too big, personal favourite was the Jensen
A fantastic taste in cars.
That Jensen, wow!
Great collection of eclectic motahs!
Some nice old motors there Fuzz.
FUSS I LOVE YOUR GARAGE ❤
The Jensen is beautiful!
Super collection Fuzz, particularly like the Jenson, these are often overlooked because of the Interceptor, but are equally great cars, I remember them from the TV series Jason King, with Peter Wyngarde & I think The Baron with Steve Forrest, so you are in good company😊
he restored so many others people cars, but not his own :X
I think I remember you Mr Townshend on a European car rally some 30 years ago ( 1995) the younger you 😆driving the Jenson 541 R in France as I commented to my Co pilot at the time ( we were in an Austin Healey) that one of the best looking motors on the Euro was the Gun Metal grey Jenson - or I’m completely mistaken and the bloke wasn’t you but a spitting image with the lady companion 😂😂
What's Tim Shaw got ?. Lol. Great insight into your cars and love how you actually use those classics as they were supposed to be used. Brilliant!!
As it should be!. Old bits of kit out on the road and not gathering dust in some museum!. Nice one!. Nuff said!. 🙂
Nice one fuzz just what you would expect 👍 it would be interesting to see what's in Tim's garage and how if at all he would differ from you .
I have ridden a Solex and it inspired me to make my own 2 stroke powered bicycle which can do on a good day about 25mph on one gear.That Jenson though would be my pick .Yes they were crap brand new but very 70,s.I loved cars from that era.
Landsail tyres, when you are that poor ending up in a ditch is a preferred destination 😂
Along with Guy Martin the best mechanics on TV by far.
Amen
Thanks for the tour, does that mean that Edd China wont be able to drive the Austin?
Saw "ROTAX" on a dashboard!
So nice to see dirt on a classic.
Fuzz, you're missing a Mk3 Cortina from your collection. I'd like to lend you mine, feel free to give it a bit of a tidy up if you want! 😄edit: Oh and a shout for Landsail tyres, I have them on my daily driver and have bought them for the last couple of years.
Wasn't that Austin on an episode of
car sausage? I'm pretty sure it was....
Sadik Khan stopped us, driving classic cars in London. My Old Land Rover cost £100 a day to drive in London.
You’re my favourite TV mechanic Fuzz but… no bus? Lol.
I thought i saw fuzz driving the other day in a mgb
Babboe? watch the welds my friend!
What happened to your bus fuzz?
I was expecting a vintage bus fleet for some reason 💭
Great to see Fuzz on his own. More please, (I find his sidekick unwatchable).
If by his "sidekick" you mean Henry Cole, I couldn't agree more. I can't stand the man.
and with Chinese tyres, do they not make tyres in Europa ?
So uncomfortable utilitarian land rover I have experienced one made for farmers and the like but I like the jenson .
should have been called the fuzz scrapyard
I wonder what corporate suckers will employ them when they are out in the cold.😮
Fuzz your name is Townshend not Townsend just like mine
Please say it properly bud
👊👊👊
Not a surprise to be honest.
Electrocute this
But he doesn't look remotely ill.
Fuzz youve got nothing fast 😮
Lovely collection but no, i would never embrace electric cars, they're not as green as they make them out to be
Love your cars especially the Jensen. Electric cars are not real cars. If it ain't got a petrol engine it ain't a car its a toy or a robot. Like us petrol engines breath. Electric cars are not for real car people they are for poofs. Give me a v8 or straight 6 any day.
Your baboo bike is banned in the the rest of europe for problems with the frame. Be careful with that one. The frame is so weak it can snap in two
Careful Fuzz If the likes of J S O get their way supported by Labour the will get Petrol banned entirely Coal supply to heritage railways has already just been about choked ou of existence
It’s Green
Reality
Battery content was mined by children exposed to extreme dangerous conditions
But hey I plug it in and all is cool
Fuzz 🖕🏻

No doubt robbed some poor old git for most of those cars. Of which i can guarantee you know naff all about.
Fuzz

Reality
SOMEONES KIDS DIED MINING THE LITHIUM !! Paid peanuts
