A Slightly Shambolic Shuffle Around the HubNut Social at the Classic Motor Hub: 23rd September 2023

[@camperlustig68]

Good Afternoon Joseph, what a wonderful VP AD016 on a N Plate😮 Fantastic. Excellent shuffle! Cheers from Hamburg

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, the Vanden Plas version of the AD016 was one of the last to be discontinued, as the Vanden Plas 1500, based on the Allegro, was not introduced until late 1974.

[@mervwhitney7229]

Unusual being caught out so many times in a single shuffle. A good selection. Thank you Mr Lloyd.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It's pretty normal that a meeting organised by Ian Seabrook would have a lot of forbidden fuel cars, I am afraid, sir.

[@mervwhitney7229]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting . As a pedestrian, cyclist, motorcyclist and car driver, I have nothing good to say about any cars and vans using 'forbidden fuel'. To me, they are a smelly, polluting, clattery source of annoyance. This is one reason I like to support you not talking about diesels on this channel.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

@@mervwhitney7229 , don't worry, sir, the Mayor of London has ensured that we will continue not to discuss them on the channel...

[@interphase]

The 7th Gen Accord is mine, and it is a petrol - it's the Executive with the 2.4l K24. Currently on 175k and still going strong :)

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It was absolutely fantastic! It's the sort of thing that I would definitely own myself. Thank you ever so much indeed for bringing along and for watching the video!

[@richardhowlett9424]

Mr Lloyd tested my 2010 Accord 2.4 a couple of years ago . Absolutely fantastic cars .

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Correct on both counts, sir.

[@paulwatts2192]

Some nice cars on show. Sorry could not make it. Work ! But thanks to the video.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Never mind, sir, at least there was another Mark III Clio there!

[@peterriggall8409]

Thanks Mr. Lloyd. Very quick off the mark. My pics. are the ADO16 VDP and the Pug 504 TI. Luvvely.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

We aim to please, sir! Got more Slightly Shambolic Shuffles coming up very soon indeed...

[@jdmsnowmonkey7913]

I appreciate my Lexus was certainly looking a bit cosmetically tired that day - I was thankfully able to get the bonnet stay issue sorted courtesy of a friendly Toyota specialist mechanic I know in Guildford. Our solution was...zip-tying the bonnet cable to restore some element of tension back into it. Some cosmetic and odds-and-sodds TLC is definitely in order for that old barge - it's served me very well over the last near 15,000 miles.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

It looked fine, sir! Glad you were able to get that bonnet latch sorted out.

[@conorl8340]

The red Spitfire is mine, its been featured in one or two of your videos before but it had a grey primer bonnet then. It's a very early 1500 built in November 75 and then registered in March 75

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Thank you very much indeed for confirming, that must be one of the very first of the Spitfire 1500s!

[@conorl8340]

@lloydvehicleconsulting chassis is stamped as 60 but how accurate that is with BL numbers I'm not 100%

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

@@conorl8340 , let's believe that is accurate!

[@richardhowlett9424]

The Audi 100 and especially the X-reg Accord out of all the amazing cars , would have liked to have been there , work commitments 😢

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, a most agreeable selection! Hopefully this Slightly Shambolic Shuffle makes up for not being able to come yesterday...

[@seancooke7332]

Always one of the more interesting collections of vehicles. The Suzuki SJ10 and SJ13 were very popular despite rumours of rollover problems. The Ford Orion is becoming a very interesting Classic and one that should be very easy to own. Of course the highlight is the Fiat Tipo 1.4S.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Sir, we did like that Tipo, and we also liked the Accord. A massive variety of stuff from brand new cars to extremely eccentric old ones.

[@JustinGeorge-x9q]

Hell Joseph , What did you think about the Peugeot 504 1978/9 in blue ? and the silver Honda Accord ? , I just love the Accord .

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I think that I may have talked about both of those in the video, sir...

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

That's the issue with the Cactus you cannot tell if it's a petrol or a diesel. The mark 2 Fabia estate is a entry S trim level I would guess, same colour as my Mark 3 Fabia Family Wagon Pacific Blue. Lovely Mark 3 Cavalier GLS,.love the little Metro with the stickers, looks so loved. I would say the 406 is a better looking than the 407, I think the 07 number range apart from the 107 and 207 were a bit of a let down! My primary 7 teacher had a system Porsche Ibiza. I can guess Miss Hubnut would have loved the Daihstsu Charade. Lovely little Corsa B. A great shuffle sir, so many cars in varying conditions which the owners will love and I love meaning not are all show queen's.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes sir, a surprising variety given the fact that Ian Seabrook does not feature too many modern cars or performance cars on the channel. I enjoyed the variety of the Volvos alone, actually. The Mark I Seat Ibiza was rather agreeable, as was the Daihatsu Charade GTti...

[@rowlewis81]

Thanks for featuring my Mazda 6 ( interesting fact it's actually ulez compliant ) I was going to steal my dad's Suzuki kizashi but he went on holiday in it

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I would absolutely love to film a Suzuki Kizashi on the channel! Been after one of those for years. Thank you ever so much indeed for watching and commenting!

[@rowlewis81]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting well I'm sure I'll borrow it at some point for a future social event I'm based in Nottingham if you are ever in the area

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I was near Alfreton earlier this week, so I do come up to Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire on occasion. Do send me an e-mail (address appears at the beginning of the video), and perhaps we can work something out?

[@rowlewis81]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting can't see an email I can contact you through your Facebook page?

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

@@rowlewis81, you would have definitely seen my e-mail address, it normally appears on screen within the first 30 seconds of every single video I make these days.

[@frazzleface753]

Those rear lights look very Lada Riva-ish, though a K-plate would have been too early for that.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Which car would that have been, sir?

[@frazzleface753]

@@lloydvehicleconsulting It was the yellow Beetle dune buggy kit-car at 25:18

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I think the registration refers to the date of the chassis the kit is based on, so that is perfectly possible, as the buggy would have been built later.

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

Strong start to the shuffle with the 940 Volvo. Nice to see Foxanne again. I never really Geled with my Mark 2 Fabia when I had one, thought they seemed cheaper than say a Mark 1 Fabia. Nice to see KZbinr Up N Down with his early BX. Breaking this into two parts and will catch up the rest of this shuffle later on.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes sir, I am looking forward to getting a Mark II Fabia on the channel to see if the interior is as plain as I remember it from having sourced one for a client. Thank you again for watching!

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Well done, sir!

[@lordstiffupperlip3095]

Hello Sir , If you ever do a review of a Suzuki Sj410 like the one at the start of the video be warned that they are very bouncy and all your teeth will fall out ! 🦘

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Already been in an open top Samurai when I was about nine years old, sir, I remember it well...

[@rowlewis81]

Dad had an sj413 soft top always remember having the roof down freezing in the back whilst parents were just nicely chilled in the front

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

I remember being driven around with the roof down as well!
