      38:14 : Yep. Sunny 'PULSAR' GTi-R. Great Car Rob. Fastest (Stock) hot hatch going back in its day I would imagine. Quality SR20DET Engine from back when Nissan still made good reliable cars. Before Renault got involved basically. I had a P11 Primera GT with the SR20D engine back in the day. That wasn't Turbo though, Still the 2nd best normally aspirated engine I know of.
      The Honda K20 series obviously wins the Number one position in that competition.

    My brother built a Lotus 7 kit for a young chap called Martin Lilly; brother went onto to have a TVR dealership. But had a feeling all was not right with them, Martin approached him about ordering a new one. But Ken put him off as he thought TVRs were going bust. A week later Ken was at TVRs and there was Martin and his dad, they had not bough a car, they bought TVRs.
    Kens accountant had a pair of Healey 3000, one for daily use the second he rallied it at weekends.
    But going around the action brought back memories of all the cars I drove back in the 60s and 70s. All great fun, so thanks for that. Have lots of stories about cars, films I worked on, and car adds.

    Chris needs the Vaxhall Victor in his life, it looks like a nice car. Just for info the rubber bumper MG's can and have been converted to chrome by people who don't like the rubber, I don't like the rubber either. If you are thinking of buying a classic anyone go for it life is too short! The Mini Traveller will be Ash wood and the wood is not structural unlike the Morris Minor Traveller which is. A Morris Minor would be a good classic to buy if your wanting to get into classics. Great video Rob and Chris it was not too long and the pace was just right, thank you. 👍👍

Now have a 1996 Volvo 940 LPT Auto estate the last 6 years. Paid £250 and runs great at 209,000 miles. Just got AC working and rebuilt the front suspension. My work van.

    At 5:12 'What bike is that?' - I think it's an NSU Quickly. My mate had one when we were teenagers in the 1960s. I had a Kerry Capitano which was a very similar beast and the one next to the NSU looks vaguely familiar.

    The little aerial that sticks up on the front near side bumper is called a “Fender Pole” on the JDM cars, I have one on my 2004 Toyota Celsior. The top also lights up blue when the lights are on. Very helpful to judge the edge of the car when pulling out of a tight space.

    Chris just mentioned about the mini floor start button. I had one a 1963 mini with one DMM510A. First A from Hertfordshire. It was transformed from 850cc to a 1100cc, removed the front end and added a fibreglass clubman. Never changed the diff, so it had major acceleration and with so much torque wheel spin and broke the engine steady bar.

    About 1963 the FB Victor had a facelift whereby the front indicators were made round and moved to the edge of the wings and the square rear number plate was introduced. Our first car was a 1962 FB Super with a four-speed floor mounted gear change: the car was designed by Gerald Palmer after his departure from BMC. You can see hints of the rounded Wolseley 6/90 rear end in the FB.

  •  Před 7 měsíci

    It's a Mark 5 Cortina, Chris. My old man had a 2.0 GL (ERP 325X) in midnight blue with an auto box that was lovely. Went up in flames after a bad service at a main dealership. Bumpers, grilles, mirrors, side trim and rear lights are the giveaways.
    My mate's Mum had one of those pram top Golf GLs with an auto box. Nice little motor.

And the old Austin Somerset, my big brother had the Devon, he let me use it as he hadn't passed his test and I had, I hit a mini with it while reversing as the rear window was tiny and the mini I hit had a black roof, lol and I ran into the picture house with it, square on into the brick wall and it never marked it, them massive bumper overriders were a blessing ......I never had to tell him. lol ..50 odd years later and I still ain't told him....Saludos desde España mi amigos.....Great vid lads.

    The red Cortina was a Mk5, not a Mk4. The Mk 5's had a different grille, bigger windows, different front indicator lights, rear light clusters and bigger seats. The Mk 5 was sold from late '79. I had a Mk4, S reg 2.0GL and a V reg Mk5 2.0GL. They were both ex company cars. The Mk4 was much livelier than the Mk5 and I had 100+ out of it. I wish I had kept it it was in the really nice Midnight Blue. Ford gave the Mk5 the name 'Cortina 80', but everyone called it a Mk5!

    Some amazing cars, loved the ford cortina, exactly the same as my dads when I was growing up and the fiesta 1.4 sport which I owned for a few years, then sold it to my mum and then my brother, great cars!

    Years and years ago, i used to maintain the paint on an old dears 304 convertible, she was totally in love with it, and it was only used around the area on an irregular basis, and that was probably 35 years ago

    How Chris has blossomed over the years, the London to Brighton will be a thing of the past in the future, pretty certain a few events are being cancelled as of next year, pretty certain Brighton were the first to pull a few of the meets.
    Red Cortina was a MK5 chaps, the MK4's had smaller rear lights.
    Thanks again lads
