I don't know who wrote this garbage, but it sounds like it's written from an American point of view and have no idea what they're talking about. Yes, SOME British cars were unreliable and crap, but it didn't just happen in the Uk, plenty of other countries produced unreliable rust buckets too. The Ford Anglia was VERY popular and as for the 'Speed' comment, most cars in the 60's & 70's (with the exception of Jaguar and some of the exotics) rarely did more than 70 MPH which is STILL the highest speed you can lawfully travel at in Britain.

Also commonwealth countries were 'blackmailed' into buying UK cars via anything made anywhere out of commonwealth countries attracted big tariffs ,so in Australia we bought Holdens ,(GM built here) Fords and Chryslers ,british cars were not great for long distance driving in heatwaves .I worked at an auto wreckers (now recyclers lol) & as soon as an Austin 1800 came in the seats were removed put at the shopfront as they were so comfortable ,they'd sell in a few days , the joke was ,there good as you spend so much time waiting for AAA ,in the rain as the fan liked to blow water all over the distributer . This AI inaccurate production makes sure I will Never watch anything by them again .

Had two Allegros both bought second hand easy to fix and reliable electrics simple, never gave me any problems. Had 3 imps two with modified engine's brilliant never gave me any problems it was labour problems at the Linwood plant where they were made and company management problems. Had a marina 1.8 TC , good fun fast and furious. Reliant Robin never had on but did drive once scared the 💩 out of me had a reliant kitten 4 wheel robin, put a tuned 1390cc A series in it along with other mods went like a rocket 🚀 great fun 100 bhp and 500kgs. My friend had a Anglia with a tuned 1.6 Kent engine in it, more fun, drove 1800's as taxis they were fine and reliable. My uncle had a Bond, he was a clever man and spent most of his free time fixing and modifying it, horrid thing. He replaced it with a A40 and eventually replaced that Vauxhall Victor 101 horribly slow thing. A friend had a Rover v8 3500s fast and fun. Vauxhall of that era underpowered rot box rubbish, nuf said. Corsair 😂😂😂. Singer gazelle my first car I had on the road it was past it's best when I got it and even though I drove it flat out all the time it always started and never let me down. Bought a triumph vitesse (6 cylinder 2l herald) with a knackered engine and put a engine from a triumph 2500tc in it went well and now 40 years later it's still on the road the man I sold it to only polishes it and never takes it out in the rain and goes to an occasional classic car show. It would be fantastic if someone would do a video on these cars after doing some real research and not using AI bull shit 🐂💩 just to get likes 😂

The Anglia was made to be cheap reliable transportation, not much else. It was about par with its competition. The 1800 lacked much needed power steering and inherited Leonard Lord's conservative approach to engine development, that was passed on to BL. If it had a more refined engine, it could have been an export success. I rode in a Corsair once, it didn't seem like it was uncomfortable or noisy. It was odd but not terrible, at least not from my experience. The driving experience wasn't exciting, but it would take you around in reasonable comfort.

Amazing! The British Car Industry went down the drain. Following the Motorcycle Industry. Neverthless, the Cortina GT and the Lotus were great Cars. And the Mini Coopers .were fantastic. The same veredict applying to the MG 1100 and 1300. And even the top brands were plagued with problems. Currently, MGs are made in China -- and E.V. are not a serious bet of the UK industry. I do expect to be proven wrong.

Vauxhall Victor 1957 vs Jowett Javelin 1950, both 1.5L and around 50bhp. It's 1964 and us high school kids were discussing cars and performance. A lad with an assertive voice boasted that his dad's Victor could ascend a certain hill at 40mph, one that I knew dad's Javelin could make 50mph and gain slightly. My pointing this out was received with ridicule and scorn - "A Vauxhall Victor could lick the arse off your silly little Javelin!" Oh, the wisdom of youth!

The Vauxhall Victor rot box was really confined to the first FA model, they were notorious rot boxes but the FB model that you show much more of was a lovely qukity car in comparison particularly the VX/490. The 101 Victor was not particularly fast but was a spacious family car particularly the Estate version. As for the Ford Corsair it was in fact a Cortina in a party frock and mechanically identical except for the later model when they introduced the V4 in 1700 and 20 ltr variants in 1966. So where the mechanical issues were you speak of I've never been aware of having owned both Corsairs and Cortina's

The Austin Aggro ( for our international viewers, this means aggravation) I meant Allegro, I still laugh ironically about it. However, I had a mildly tuned Imp for a while. It was like driving a go kart: it hugged the corners better than a Mini. I always remember working for a s/h car dealer in the ‘80s: A Marina started making clanking sounds, so I continued driving it until it threw a rod.....aahhh so satisfying. BTW for a good sports car you could get a TVR: the poor man’s Aston Martin, I’ve had a few and still have one. My first car was a Triumph TR4, it also had rust issues, it was endemic in the ‘60-70s., but that was still a great car.

WHAT A LOAD OF BULLSHIT!!!!! Some genuine classics being called 'crap' is totally unacceptable. Heralds were not designed to be driven hard. Thy were a beautifully designed town car (by Giovanni Michelotti). There wasn't even a Motorway system back then so high speeds were not envisaged as a necessity. And ALL British cars rotted badly, there was ZERO rust treatment applied back then and the climate here will destroy anything very quickly. Vehicles that were exported to drier climates lasted for years and years. Anybody, or thing, that calls a Jaguar a Jagwaar should be treated with suspicion.

I can only comment on the Hillmann Imp, but I simply cannot recognize any of the grievances. A standard Imp could outrun a standard mini. I experienced a reliability level quite on par with other British cars of the era (witch was abysmal by modern standards, but that's another story), and I never experienced any over-heating. The handling was a bit more challenging than that of the Mini, but once you learned the ropes, if performed nicely.

Well who ever claimed that because it is old it therefore must be a classic? A classic is usually a car that stood out in some way for qualities which it exhibited. Those qualities help it become a classic eventually and many cars of any nation are only worthy of the scrapyard once they have ended their useful life. Britain being one of the rainiest countries in the world, and with the salting and gritting of roads in winter time to make icy roads safer, it is impossible that anything made of steel could avoid rust!

The presenter of this video is talking absolute crap and doesn't have a clue. As someone who lived through this generation of cars, they were no worst than any other car that was available to the buyer in the 60's & 70's. ALL cars rusted in that period, due to poor quality steel, but more so the preparation and protection of it. At least British cars didn't come out the factory rotting before your very eyes like the Lancia's! Square steering wheel on the Allegro last about 6 months due to buyers preferring a round one, but what do cars have today, yep squarish steering wheels. Going back to the Allegro, there size was copied by all manufacturers in that their cars got bigger in width, length and height, so providing more space and comfort to the passenger, design is in the beholder of the person buying the car, because you don't like a design that doesn't make it a bad car. Let's have a video by people who know what they're talking about, preferably talking to the designers if they're still alive.

Yet again it's the Ai voice over who doesn't know anything about the subject. Is the Austin Allegro rubbish? No! Owned a one owner from new, and it only broke down twice, one was due to my not having a can of WD40 in the boot. Two. when the front suspension collapsing due to the garage that failed the car's MOT, and hadn't repaired it. The car's handling was excellent. But wait isn't this meant to be about crappy British cars from the '60's? Hillman Imp was a legendary handling car in some cases better than the Mini. The Morris Marina was just boring, my father had one. The Reliant Regal was a car that was safe to drive only if the driver respected the car. Why are you showing a Reliant Robin. Ford Anglia was a good car in it's day. The Austin/Morris 1800 was also a good car, yes the styling might not be to everyone taste, (designed by an Italian styling house), the handling was infact highly regarded and had an excellent reputation as a rally car. Bond Minicar was just strange, but so were quite a few European bubble cars among others. The Austin A40 was a trend setter, and again an excellent rally car, again designed by an Italian design house. The Rover P6, yes I have owned one of those too! Mine was crap, but it was a down at heel car that I should never have owned. When it ran properly, it was one of the most best handling cars I have ever driven, just as good as a SAAB 900 I also used to own. The Vauxhall Victor FB, FC 101 and the FD, like the Ford Fiesta just got better and better over time. The Ford Corsair a beautiful looking car. Why are you showing a Singer Vogue, anyway you are talking about a car from the mid '50's. The Triumph Herald, yes I have owned a few of them. There was never a 4 door Herald, and you are talking out of your stupid Ai arse. Didn't most cars rust from that period? from all over the world, even VW from that era!

Have watched 15mins so far & seriously you need to put a little more effort into your research. You seem to base your facts on views from journalists who often gave inaccurate reports. Or omitted detail completely. Take fir example the Reliant Regal. By the time the British TV programme Only fools & horses came along the Regal was out of production. The car was unstable & uncomfortable, but it was quite popular due to its classification of being a tricycle meaning it could be driven on a motorcycle licence instead of a full driving licence. I could go on much much more. Ive bought,sold, worked on & driven just about every model of British car made between 1965 to the late 1990's so do have a pretty good knowledge of these cars.

What a load of rubbish. Whilst slating British cars it is obvious that whoever put it together does not know what theya re talking about. For example the Austin Morris 1800 is slated by the speaker but the pictures show the Austin Maxi, Austin/Morris 2200 and hte Wolseley Six. I doubt very much that the speaker, or whoever put the words together, had ever ridden in one let alone driven one. The quartic steering wheel on the Austin Allegro was also slated as the worst point of the car. Why, then, are many super cars fitted with non-round steering wheels? The Triumph Herald was never offered as a four door car in the Western World (It was in India but it was built out there and called the Standard Gazelle, not British. I had problems with other cars described here. It must be the crappiest review of British cars I have listened to and I have owned a few of these cars without experiencing the issues that the authors have put forward here.

@ it did, most famously in the hands of the late rosemary smith, it also did well in countless motorsports, from saloon car racing (check out the likes of Fraser Imps and Bevan imps) to sprints and hill climbs, it’s engine was often also used in motorcycle/sidecar racing ( where the passenger leans over the side) in the Isle of Man TT etc, it’s often considered to actually handle better than a mini in certain types of motorsport, most notably rally, auto grass racing/rally cross and such like and an imp road car with a decent set of lowering springs ( Monte Carlo springs) will keep up with any mini on the twisty stuff👍

I had friends who had both the standard imp and standard mini and the Imp wasted the mini in every respect.

I don't know who is claiming this, but it's a load of complete and utter bloody rubbish. Whatever the make and model of car/ vehicle, the British built the best. Although, having said that, the Americans came up with some pretty dire examples themselves.😅😊🚙🚗

This is a badly researched video. The Reliant was built as a vehicle that could be driven on a motorbike licence but was covered keeping the driver from the weather. The Anglia 105E was based on an older design than the Mini and wasn't a real comparison. The Ford Consul range that came after was a more modern design that gave us the Consul, Cortina, and the Capri. The Land Crab was the big brother of the very successful following that design. As for the comments of rust, all European cars of that time were plagued by rust as after the war, most steel was used to reconstruct buildings that were the replacement to buildings ruined during the war. The owner comments obviously are from those who bought the cars without taking a good look at the market of the day. Or probably bought used and abused cars. For every one owner that criticised, there are probably nine that praised them. I couldn't watch this to the end it is so much rubbish and should be on the scrap heap.

May remind you the Austin 1800 came second in the 1968 London to Sydney marathon ahead of a Ford Falcon GT with a Ford V8 most of these British cars were absolute crap they were still winning long distance rallies why they beat V8s also there were Holden Monaros in the London to Sydney marathon the winner was a four cylinder 1725cc Hillman Hunter its only major rally win you may talk about lack luster performance but they won many races rallies l actually owned a couple of Hillmans my self they were not the best rust of course and that's in Australia well all British ars did rust in Australia and l am glad l don't have them l prefer my 1997 Toyota Hilux simple yet so reliable and no rust and why did British Leyland Rootes Group Leyland Australia and other British car manufacturers fail because they built awful terrible vehicles
