A Slightly Shambolic Shuffle Around Rustival 2 (28th September 2024) - Part One of Seven

[@seancooke7332]

Hubnut's Perodua is a very interesting car indeed. The Skoda S110 and the Wartburg bring back happy memories from childhood. The Wartburg Knight has a particularly pretty shape both in Saloon and Estate. I think that the Figaro was Eggshell colour. We love the Daewoo Espero Sir .

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, we do indeed love a nice Daewoo Espero! The Wartburg Knight was unusual to see.

[@SmashingPistons]

23:08 - Cheers fella! Work in progress as always!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

We aim to please, sir!

I've had my 1962 P4 100 Rover for a couple of months now. Like you, I found the gears incredibly hard to manage at first because the gear stick kind of sits in the air so you have to get used to intuitively knowing where to move it to. However, I did get used to the gear changes after a few drives. I would think it would be impossible for most people not to crunch the gears repeatedly for the first few drives at least. The other negative feature of the car is how heavy its stearing is. If one is usually driving a modern car and then takes a P4 for a drive, I think the heavy steering will always take a minute or two to adjust to. On the plus side, I hadn't realised what a beast the P4 is under the boot. And that is one of its best features. Having overdrive makes all the difference.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes, the video is on the Sensible Secondhand Reviews/Classics playlist! The steering is very heavy and about 4.6 turns lock to lock. I remember it well. The gear change was...interesting! Can't remember if I crunched during the changes or not now, I probably did. Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting.

[@stevensfourwheels]

9:51 Thank you for featuring my SLK. Yes it’s had work on all 4 arches! Thankfully it’s now in a lot better shape than when I brought her 👍

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It's a pleasure to see one in such fine condition! I have driven a Crossfire before, but I also have a hankering to try a first generation SLK...

[@stevensfourwheels]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting Thank you, it’s been a labour of love. They are great little cars so you won’t regret it.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I am sure that they are much better than the Crossfire, they look super too!

[@stevensfourwheels]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting I’ve never driven a crossfire but would like to as a comparison. I can imagine the SLK’s do drive a little better.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes, I wasn't very impressed with the Crossfire, really. I did take a lot of criticism at the time for the video, but I stand by what I said. The SLK, at least, wasn't pretending to be something that it wasn't.

[@frazzleface753]

Here we go, sir! The first of many enjoyable parts!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, we are up to Part Four already...

[@AJP-rv7yo]

Thankyou for the kind words about my little clio

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

No problem at all! I have reviewed all four of the first generations of Clio, and yours is a particularly lovely one.

[@MGBetts1]

@27:06 is a Wolseley 6/80. The 4/50 is similar but with a shorter nose. They are related to the Morris Six MS & Morris Oxford MO (big Minor.)

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you, sir! I couldn't remember in the moment what it was called.

[@Dino_Dad.]

Excellent start as always Sir 🫡

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Part Two is up already, sir, and Part Three is available for channel members too...

[@DoubleZeroGarage]

Thanks for featuring my Mondeo, it is indeed a 2 litre petrol with 173,000 miles. The alloy wheels are Fox multispokes, bought to replace the hideous 17 inch max power style things a previous owner had fitted

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting! I don't think that I have come across your channel before, but if this is the sort of car featured on it, then I wholeheartedly approve.

[@DoubleZeroGarage]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting Thank you for taking the time to reply, I know how busy you must be editing all the footage. I also have a 1975 Cortina and a couple of American cars on my channel. I’ve also only just found out, the Mondeo is one of only 3, 2 litre ghia’s left

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Up to Part Six at the moment in terms of editing, and I also filmed three more parts at the British Leyland Autumn Rally today, so it has been a busy weekend... I have driven a Mark V Cortina on my channel, and two Mark II Mondeos, but never a Mark I Mondeo nor a Mark III Cortina, funnily enough....

[@DoubleZeroGarage]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting I’m sure we could arrange something somehow if we’re ever at the same event. I appreciate how far apart we are from each other, but if you had time next time you’re at the motorist or if you ever have reason to travel north

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I was in Huddersfield back in May, actually. I go up to the area at least a couple of times a year. Do send me an e-mail, and maybe we can work something out?

[@TrevorBuick]

Sir, kudos on posting the video asap, 👍

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Six more parts to come...

[@RSCapri-ck2nm]

The white capri is actually a genuine RS3100.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I always get a bit confused, as the RS 3100s don't carry that name on the badges...

[@pizzalover3]

Afraid a joke missed there sir of Mr Bill's Mégane, saying "it could have been his". But the first part very much enjoyed. Waiting for the other 6 parts with suitably baited breath.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

He always says, "This could be yours" when he sees a car for sale at a show, sir. His Mëgane is not for sale, though.

[@mrshiggs941]

Thank you for featuring my green Mk6 Fiesta. You are correct, it's a 1.6 and very fun to drive! 💚🏁

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Mark VI Fiestas are probably amongst the best cars for £1,000 to £2,000 at the moment. Yours looks like a nice one!

[@mrshiggs941]

​@lloydvehicleconsulting thank you! Mine is worth a bit more than that as it's a limited edition! 💚🏁

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

@@mrshiggs941 , I would imagine so, if it is a nice one like yours! I have driven quite a few, but never a 1.6.

[@richardoconnell7958]

Top work as usual, Sir. How on earth do you edit so quickly?!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

There is an art to it, sir.

[@Sid3300]

Didn’t know you attended. Will have to catch you next time!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

The Grand Move is coming up in about Part Three or Four from memory... Yes, having missed the one in March, I prioritised this one. I was quite busy today!

[@Sid3300]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting Yeah that was mine. Glad you managed to film it 😁

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, we enjoyed seeing it very much!

[@classics144sportscarschannel]

brill show to you

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, Part Two is up now too for your viewing pleasure.

[@uhn100]

Some very nice cars Joseph I know Adam from living with a classic is their from Sweden he is a Jaguar Guru I look forward to watching all 7 episodes thank you Andy Allen.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes sir, we know him well! Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting.

[@simonclamp7508]

The Wartburg is mine SDC353T is a private plate - Original reg A185VYC.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting!

[@mattw8332]

Love the red Porsche 928 - one for my dream garage. Nice early BMW 5 series too (E12). Wünderbar! Must try and get to a future event if Rustival continues.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, I have a feeling that there would be a lot of demand for another event, if they would like to do another one...

[@The_Car_Stalker]

The vectra B estate is a 1.8 Petrol and is my ULEZ daily

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you very much for watching and commenting!

[@mondyboy81]

Thats my Espero, one of three i became the owner of during this year. One was accident damaged and scrapped, the green 1.8 you drove in the past I decided to sell on via eBay and then there is this May 1996 car. Registered new to Daewoo HQ in Rickmansworth and on just 44.5k miles from new. It's debut was at Rustival and i had a lot of fun driving it up from Bristol.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

You are clearly a privileged man! I have just been offered one of the other Daewoos at the event for review as well. Is this your last Espero left?

[@mondyboy81]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting yes, it's my only one now. It was the better of the two examples. The green N reg was pretty tired after passing through several owners.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Oh yes, it probably was, wasn't it?

[@dominicchesterman2107]

Wanted to be there but at work now, watching this video. You would have walked away from my car unfortunately. Forbidden fuel..

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Six more parts still to come! Ended up having to skip quite a few cars today...
