Well done đ good knowledge that đ
Thanks. I'm no good with any cars of that era. The top hat era, to me.

Your bubbling enthusiasm for life and all things leaves me breathless! I do love the Princess for its touches of luxury and doubtless will be your to drive soon.

What a happy and bubbly young lady. Enjoy your car it's beautiful
Thanks đđđ
That Young lady makes me smile đbless you people đŽó §ó ąó ·ó Źó łó ż
Thanks đ
I think you should ask Billy to check valve clearances as it sounds a bit "tappety" and make sure coolant is filled with 50% antifreeze mix. Also, check there is a bit of oil in carburettor dash pot.
He has done thanks for advice đ
I think this pair may need all the guidance you can give them.
@@peterwilkinson4508 a bit condescending that remark wasn't it TROLL.
@peterwilkinson4508 what do you mean "this pair"a bit of condescending remark wasn't it,I suppose your an expert ,right?
God's own County - grand! Poor old Billy can't compete with your enthusiasm!
đđ
Loved the 'bonding moment'. When you pass another classic, no matter the make, everyone waves, it's great!
Even getting that with our 20 yr old Micra now most Micra drivers wave at us đ€Ł
A car from my childhood your Princess, your enthusiasm for this wee car knows no bounds.
Thanks Paul đ
I just love her enthusiasm..... It's so refreshing to see....
Thanks đ
Thank you for sharing your "first time out" I am English, from Weardale, now living in Greensboro North Carolina. Seeing the moorland almost brought a tear to my eyes.

I thought I was the only "fruit loop" on the planet but you take the biscuit - don't ever change, it's lovely.
Cheers Fred đ
Learned to drive in one of these and last weekend bought a 1969 Triumph Vitesse that drove from Glasgow back to Kent with no bother at all. Got to love a classic. đ

Ahh thanks, glad you enjoyed the vid, she will be looked after đ
So glad you are obviously very happy with it and you are so adorable. Enjoy
Thanks đ
Great to see the younger generation into classic cars, never owned a 1300, but worked on many, did my mechanics apprenticeship 1970 to75 with a Ford main dealer so most of my own cars were Ford, my mates car is a 1937 Ford 10, and its still going strong, rescured it from a farmers field 20 years ago, Loved the video,
Sounds awesome đ thanks for watching đ
Lovely car. I had one very similar . It was an MG version , the same body and luxury inside. I was seventeen at the time and I paid ÂŁ85.00 for it .
I drove it until the floor under the drivers seat began to touch the tarmac.
It had rotted away and the car was soon consigned to scrap.
I love your enthusiasm for classic cars . Keep it up , I haven't lost my enthusiasm after 40 odd years .
Thanks for sharing your story David đ I love classic cars đ đ
The Golf GTi of its day, pretty much a Cooper S engine.
With your infectious enthusiasm and joyful outlook on life, the love of old cars and appreciation of your countryside, I wouldnât be at all surprised with how many young lads are completely âtwitterpatedâ with you and only wish they knew you in person.
Tell your brother to hand over the reins to Princess.
Great video!
Thank You I am glad you like the vids thanks for watching!
This is such a great little motor...
From the period where BMC actually built cars that worked.
Was an mechanic apprentice from 1973-1978 @ a BMC dealership so I have fond memories of the 11-1300 models.
They were actually called the Marina in DK, the Mini was the Mascot, and the Landcrab was the Monaco.
(When Morris badged, as Austins they had the UK designations..
Thanks for watching and thanks for your story đ
What a terrific day out. The scenery is beautiful and the vintage picnic just topped it off. Great to see you are enjoying Princess.
Iâve waited ages to use that picnic box đ€Ł
The Princess certainly has a presence on the road, very eye catching !
Thanks đđ
Hi Matilda. Love your car. I had a 1300 automatic in 1970 lovely comfy car and never let me down. Sounds like the tappits want nipping up a few thou. Love your enthusiasm
Matilda, you are a beautiful princess as well â€đ
Thanks Ken đ I think Billy has sorted tappers now đ
I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with that fantastic little car. Your enthusisum for 'Princess', the countryside and life in general is wonderful to see and your videos always put me in a happy mood.
Ahh thats great Geoff thanks so much!
What a tonic to see uncontained joy. Great "bonding moment" with the Model A Ford Tudor.
Lovely bonding moment đđđ
Some great scenery and the shots of the car look great, love your enthusiasm for the car.
Thank You đ
Great to see older cars being used
Definately đđ
Enjoy your old car young lady old cars have character and nearly always a name
Thanks đ
I wish you well with your Princess, my uncle had the manual version of this from new. The smell of a new car with real leather upholstery and real wood veneer was amazing. He used it daily for over twenty years, and guess what I learned to drive and passed my driving test in it.
Thanks for sharing your story †and thanks for watching đ
Rumour has it, later that night, Billy drove off in Princess and they lived happily ever after.
Wouldnât surprise me đ€Ł
Itâs wonderful to see your enthusiasm over the types of carâs that I grew up with as a kid, princess is a stunning little car with a lot of charm and is definitely in the hands of the right owner .
Thank You and thanks for watching đ
Wouldn't it be great if we could all be that happy! Its great what a classic car can do for you.
đ
You're a breath of fresh air, I love your style in presentation.
Thank You đ
Great video, I hope you never lose that spark of excitement, you are truly inspiring.

Wow, I had one of these in the late 70s in plum color, what a great little car it was, a very comfortable car to ride in too, loving the enthusiasm.
Thank You đ
Fantastic! It it so nice to see youngsters taking an interest in vintage vehicles! Keep it up. These were on the road 'when I was a lad!'
Thanks and thanks for watching đ
My first car in 1968 was a 1965 2 door MG version of the 1300. Great fun for a 16 year old kid. Enjoy yours. I watched the video posted by the vendor.
Thank You đ
Hello Great video..nice cool classic carđ
Thanks đ
Beautiful car! I hope you can drive it some day. You live amongst some beautiful scenery. Greetings from Arizona, USA.
Greetings from England đ as long as we can afford, we have no plans in selling so hopefully we will still own her when Iâm old enough to drive đ
Another great video, thanks for your hard work on making it, i think Price Billy loves your Princess
Yes he does đ thanks for watching đ
Such beautiful countryside with a beautiful car and an enthusiastic young owner watching content like this just makes the troubles in the world disapear for a few minuets , keep them coming , oh and i would have held out for two pieces of cake before returning the car .
Ahh thatâs really kind thanks for that comment, he can have another piece when heâs polished her đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Beautiful car so refreshing to see a young woman excited and interested in classic cars good for you đđ»
Thank You and thanks for watching đ
I stumbled across your account when you picked up the princess. I love your enthusiasm for the car. It's great that there are people like you who are enthusiastic about old cars as that's what keeps them going. Well done and keep making the videos.
Thank You should hopefully have a steam locomotive one coming today đđ
Oh wow, I love you guys and your infectious enthusiasm for classic ownership. Your picnic was oh so proper with your traditional "car boot" service...just gorgeous! I can't tell you how thrilled I am for you, you are both an absolute credit to your generation, I truly am heartened! Please do keep us posted on your joy and happiness with beautiful Princess, she is in tremendous hands đ Mark - Australia
Ahhh thanks Mark for your fab comment, please do watch the vid when we purchased our Princess czcams.com/video/1JLHX_IMIDA/video.html and thanks so much for watching đ
I most certainly have watched all your great videos, you have the world's classic car owners and lovers supporting you 100%. In fact you have inspired me to buy British again...oh the incomparable craftsmanship! đ
@@matildariverwaldennews I am watching also from Australia. My classic car is a Leyland P76 made in Australia by Leylands. They were never popular but are now very rare and I enjoy owning one.
@@davidrobertson376 that sounds good Iâll have to have a Google of that model
@@matildariverwaldennews I think you will enjoy the Leyland P76 story and the reason Leylands attempted to enter the Australian large car market and then why such a good car failed. They had the same good quality of the Princess with comfort and handling, just larger and more powerful.
Yes a Ford Model A imported from the States. They were imported into England through Trafford Park Manchester.
đ
Great Fun. Thank you for sharing... đ
Thanks for watching đ
Great film probably the best you tube I have ever seen đ
Yayyyyyy thanks đ
You're fun! 1929 Ford Model A......kinda rare car for the UK!!
Thanks for that đđ
the countryside is amazing there. car seemed smooth from what I could tell.
She is very smooth đ
Lovely video. Just radiates joy, somehow.
Thanks Simon đ
The vintage was a ford model a, this is a great video, so nice to see someone so young so enthusiastic about classic cars, this will be a hobby interest that will be with you forever! Thank you this made my day!
Ahhh Iâm glad I did đ
Wow, what a lovely car in classic scenery. That Grill, that walnut dash I can see why it is called a Princess. It brought back memories for me Matilda because those cars were about when I was your age back in the 1970s. To top it all back in 2018 I cycled up the Cross St Greet Slaidburn when I did my Landâs End to John OâGroats Cycle ride. Great video thanks đđ
Thanks for the story and for watching đ
Really nice car, and lovely to see some great countryside, an old picnic set and some smiling faces! My Dad had a couple of Austin 1100s, and later he bought a brand new Morris 1300 back in 1968, they really were great cars, our family loved them!
Glad you enjoyed the vid đ
Hi Matilda, I've just found you on you tube , I watched you looking over the post office train at Hellifield . I love Princess, my dad had a 1300 like her but not the luxurious "vanden plas"model, I also watched bangers and cash team restore one for re-sale recently on Yesterday channel on TV (May 2023) . I love your enthusiasm and zest for life .Your mum must be so proud of you . I was born in May 1969 so Princess is nearly as old as me!!!. Keep up your good vids, I'm a big fan !!!. -bud the painter-
@@matthew0605 Thank You Matthew Iâm really glad you enjoy the vids and thanks for watching đ
Another great video Matilda well done.
Thank You glad you enjoyed it đ
So enthusiastic vdp owner brings a smile to everyone's face
Defo đ
I literally love how excited you get over an old car đ
Thanks đđđđ
This was in my suggestions list. What a fabulous little car on a beautiful sunny day, I absolutely love any of the ADO16 cars and your Princess is a stunning example. I have a classic myself- a 1972 Cortina estate called TeeCee.
Great name đđđ glad you love my car đ
I had a Morris 1100 back in the 80s. Great little car. The leg room was amazing. Love your excitement.
Thank You đ
It was brilliant to see how excited you are with your old car. You made my day. đ
Thanks Kenny â€
Bond, Billy, BOND!!!đ
đ đ
Fantastic, can feel the joy coming through the screen.đđ»
đ€Łthanks đ
Looks like young Billy has taken a fancy to your Princess..., đ
Lovely day!
I think he was very surprised how nice she was to drive đ
I love your enthusiasm for this lovely little car. I think Billy is in love.
He definitely isđđ
Lovely classic motor car and your delightful enthusiasm for classic motoring is hugely endearing and sweet. I wish you many happy miles and years with 'Princess'. Your presentation kept me watching because you are so adorable, it makes a very refreshing change from the bulk of motor channels on here. Love the vintage picnic set too!!!
Thanks Johnathan glad you enjoyed the vid đ
A joy to watch. Your genuine enthusiasm and love of classic cars really brightened my day as you seem so positive and happy.
Thanks đ glad you enjoyed the vid
Those tappets should be fairly quiet - there's some adjustment needed there! Loved the period hat and the little drive out. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Watch the rust but these were well built with lead loaded seams, not sure about the b pillar door edge alignment though, need to get it sorted if possible. The other not so big upgrade, if not already done, is an electronic ignition instead of the points originally there. The little Princess does look good though, well done!
Thanks for the advice đ glad you enjoyed the vid đ
My second car was an Austin 1300 and she drove beautifully. The registration was ROT 993G but unfortunately she lived up to the reg plate!
đ sorry to hear that đ±
Delightful!
Great little car, your picnic set looked amazing...just what my wife and I have been looking for...
Perfect classic you have bought at the aution...something about old cars...they have character.
Good to see you are enjoying the iconic car...đđ
Iâve waited ages to use that picnic hamper đ€Ł
I love your car. Great camera work and editing. Thanks for sharing. đ”
Thank You glad you enjoyed the vid đ
Beautiful part of the world, absolutely beautiful. It looks like a very comfortable car!
It really is unspoilt
HI Matilda, As young apprentice back in the early 1970's I can remember these cars very well, not to many Princess though mostly 1000 and 1300's they all had a good ride, a bit to soft for my liking, I preferred the more sporty Triumphs and Jaguars of the time. Its great to see a young girl so interested in classic cars, cars that I grown up with, I bet you can't wait to be older enough to be able to drive your car, still it will give you time to get to know your car and understand the it better, so when it goes wrong you will know how to fix it đ
Thanks John, yes I canât wait to drive her đ€đđ
I enjoyed your video of picking up your Princess so much, that I had to tune in for your further adventures. That is a proper picnic kit. Your Princess is a beautiful car, I noticed the reaction you got from the older lady as you first started driving - she must have memories of seeing Princesses years ago. You may have taken a leap of faith in the auction bid, but by all accounts this has been a well loved and cared for car that should give you years of motoring pleasure. Best wishes.
Thatâs a really kind comment thanks so much đđđđ
Hmmmmm, either Billy needs his own classic car, or you are going to need to hide the keys from him! đ
I think heâs defo been converted đ
Another thing, l did see an Austin 1100, is that yours too and is it on the road?
@@glennlingard7851 Thatâs my brothers Billy , he was a copycat when he saw ours đ€Ł although that is a standard one, itâs still a beauty, it needs some work, brakes exhaust etc but the interior is immaculate, he is doing it up starting this weekend I think đ€
đOmg thank you for sharing your little adventure really enjoyed it and Billy the car thief đđ, but it brought back so many memories for me when I was really small my mum used to take us out for a picnic in our Austin I even remember the number plate jup 139h and our picnic case was made of wicker and back then we didn't have folding chairs it was a tartan blanket to sit on, brilliant thank you so much for making me smile again fantastic đđWOW princess did really well, cmon Billy bond fella đ
@@kevinhaigh3962 I think he bonded itâs a man thing đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł if Iâm allowed to say that now
Such enthusiasm for a lovely young lady it's nice to see younger people take an interest in the past. I also love steam engines. You should visit the great central railway in Leicestershire it's a great place.
I will Google that thanks đđ€
Sweet video!, my dad used to fix these cars in 70's when he ran a small motor repair business in an old barn beside the Union Canal by Lanark Road in Edinburgh. My first car was a Volkswagen Derby, I learned to adjust the ignition points on it.
Thanks for the comment glad you enjoyed the vid đ
Matilda is certainly infectious,love your enthusiasm đ
Thank You glad you enjoyed the vid đđ
Another lovely video, great stuff guys! Matilda really does make the difference, sheâs an absolute sweetheart. Keep up the good work đđ

Hi Matilda another great Video reminds me driving down to the Borders from Edinburgh having a picnic with family,then having a swim in the river Tweed but oh the water was COLD. that was in late Fifties driving my Morris Minor 1949 model wish i could turn the Clock back.Really enjoyed your trip in the PRINCESS it looks great
Ahh happy memories đ thanks for watching and commenting đ
I had a Ford Model A as my wedding car - owned at the time by a chap in Heysham.
I would have preferred an Austin 1300 mind. đ
Both great cars đ đ
Your hat really suits the Princess! :)
