A Slightly Shambolic Shuffle Around the 2023 London Classic Car Show at Olympia: Part One of Five

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

Those 911's at the start were rather special especially the Yellow GT3. What a beautiful looking Renault 12. The Carrera 4 for sale looked ace, do not mind black wheels myself, only thing I hate is cleaning them! You cannot talk about diesels on the channel and especially in London where it is a swear word.... A great little shuffle sir, will be away to watch Part 2 now.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, we are unable to discuss the forbidden fuel on the channel, especially when I was filming right inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone! Glad you enjoyed the 911s at the start. There are an awful lot more of those to come!

[@focusrssteve]

What a way to start the day! A shambolic shuffle with Mr Lloyd! This will be fun!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, the second part is coming out soon as well!

[@badbooks476]

Thankyou for sharing Sir. You can’t beat an early Porsche 911. The Renault 12 looks amazing, tough car back in the day, if maintained. That Karmen Ghia Razor edge is a rare sight, my Uncle Percy had a racing green German import, rhd, with electric sunroof & a front & rear boot (above the engine) he loved that car

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, the Renault 12 was indeed brilliant, they were very certainly quite rugged. The Razor Edge Karmann Ghia was indeed very much appreciated, as they are extremely rare. Hope you enjoyed Part Two as well!

[@CortinasAndClassics]

I'm amazed Sadiq Kahn isn't there to fine people looking at cars he hates lol.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I managed to avoid him, although I had to dodge round quite a lot of other people.

[@chrisfrob]

Oooohhh..........a shambolic shuffle. I really like the way you cover these shows. Saturday night binge watch.😀

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, I hope that you enjoy all five parts, it is just as shambolic as it ever was!

[@ibs5080]

Hello Sir. Very glad to see you've complied a multi part shuffle through this show. I'm actually at my other home in Vancouver Canada right now and hence was not able to make this show, though I was well aware of it. I actually attended this show two years ago when it was held at Syon Park in the summer. I will catch up on your videos as soon as I can. I'm back in Blighty mid March so maybe see you at the NEC Resto Show then? I'm at that show for two days. Thank You again Sir.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, you know the rules of these shows, I have to keep going! I did get round in a day quite comfortably, including a two hour long train journey at either end, so I managed it. The videos from Syon Park in 2021 are on KZbin, as you know. If you watch the end of Part Five, sir, when it comes out, you will discover the answer to your question.

[@ibs5080]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting Hello Sir. Yes of course and rest assured I would never interrupt any of your filming at these shows as I realise continuity is important. I remember well the one off at Syon Park during a past summer. I was hoping for the same this year actually as I am in the UK at that time whereas I missed the Olympia show this year as I am back in Canada. All the more reason I really appreciate you compiling your multi part shambolic shuffle. Hope all is well back in the UK. It's snowed overnight here in Vancouver. This part of Canada doesn't deal with snow very well.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, I would personally save your money for the NEC shows. As you will see, this is only really about a third of the size of the Restoration Show, and less than a quarter of the size of the main November show. Much more multi-part Slightly Shambolic Shuffling coming up next month, sir, as you know.

[@mwheatley2365]

Well done for getting round…it looks horrendously busy!!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It was even worse today, apparently! One Part down, four to go....

[@seancooke7332]

I remember that the Manager of my Father's Company was given a used 1975 Renault 12 TL in White, good car. Unfortunately it was written off but it was replaced with a Royal Blue 1977 Mini Van which was so much more fun. The GMC Truck is a Cab Over Engine, that is what COE stands for. Simply love the idea of the Porsche 930 Turbo.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you, sir! I knew someone would be familiar with that old truck. The Renault 12s are absolutely non-existent now over here, I suppose they were relatively common back in the day.

[@seancooke7332]

​@@lloydvehicleconsulting Renault 12s were very common and lots of them had metal roof rack on top.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, the good old roof racks....

[@mpersad]

Top shuffle as always, thank you, sir!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Second part will be coming up soon as well, sir!

[@roygardiner2229]

Oh, smashing cars! The shiny blue Renault had the French élan that one cannot deny. I have never heard of a Bentley branded as Bensport.... So far, though, I see no cars in the No-Budget category. The green Jaguar XJ is definitely my cup of tea. The E-type at 23:11 is delicious, too. That Bentley at 24:57 must be a Blower, I suppose. There is, of course, antastic history to them, with numerous Le Mans wins. Then, ooo, the Jaguar XJS at 26:59. I feel faint.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, there are four more parts to go! You can't faint now.... The XJ-S was indeed very nice indeed, as was the green X350 XJ. I sort of wanted to buy that one myself! Thank you for watching.

[@EastCoastRoadsters]

Have you ever been to the Techno Classica show in Essen Germany it’s a huge show mostly German stuff

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I am afraid not, but, ironically, I do have a degree in German! Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting, Tim.

[@fire5770]

That M3 looks 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It was very nice indeed! Thank you for watching, Part Two will follow soon.

[@nickyboy.]

1st

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Somehow got it up before midnight, sir!
