Pretty cool video, I have a brother who lived in Middleton a few years ago and watching this video and the view of the city centre skyline from Belle Isle Circus you can see how much Leeds has changed, no skyscrapers back then!

How not to drive 😂 Great video clip 👍

[@pachma405]

No speed humps, bollards, road blocks or other traffic calming shit. Those were the days.

[@plottwist1733]

Gotta love how KZbin's anti-shake feature makes videos even shakier.

[@optimusprime-G184]

whats the music called please?

[@losedarkhorse]

An era of Capri/cortina/escort/fiesta/Austin etc. Don’t remember seeing many Japanese or Korean cars back then. Leeds were peaceful back then and getting around was far more easier comparing to bus lanes and and all that of today’s road management system. LS11 has become severely populated now a days just like rest of the country I guess.

[@joaquinguzman8315]

It's like an episode of The Sweeney!

[@Darwinion]

LOL!!! That MK4 Zodiac is there just before you get to Belle Isle roundabout. It was always fucking there! Did it ever move?

[@pommiegirl8079]

Would anyone know what the factory on the Garnets was called?

[@BILLYnKAREN]

I think their was a sewing company called Fotherby's, on the corner then going up Garnet Road there was Clayton's, John King's and Robinson & Birdsell's scrap yard.

[@jamiehoward5538]

Didn't it become symingtons the soup company that does the bachelors brand?
