Clarkson, Hammond and May set out to prove that British Leyland made some good cars back in the day. Featuring three popular British made family cars of the 1970s and 80s - The Rover SD1, the Triumph Dolomite, and the Austin Princess, but can they survive the boy's rigorous testing?

Wow, American cars are made for a smooth ride and not meant to go fast? Sin! Wow, British cars break down even when you've just done a ton of work on them, and get worse when you try and fix them again and will probably be in the shop for 3 years? What amazing cars!

I wonder how much that had to do with Jeremy's "secret weapon," the sun roof. Seems like maybe the others' cars didn't leak so badly because they duct taped all the holes, albeit poorly, holding the water in with air pressure of all things... And then Jeremy opened a giant hole in the roof. 🤔

Austin, you made an important mistake. In England, most people speak English; the clue is in the country's name. In North America, many people speak U.S. derivatives of English. Collectively, they speak U.S. English, or English (U.S.A.). Neither is 'better' than the other; they're different, but to tell English people that they speak British English (which doesn't exist), whilst you speak English, is insulting. Remember, too, that people, in what became the USA, almost finished up speaking German. English was chosen by a majority vote of 1. If that had been a minority vote of 1, then would they be telling German people today that they speak 'European German' whilst you speak German? It's doubtful. Thankfully, they chose English, because if German were the lingua franca in the USA, who would Germany have sided with in WW1? That 1 vote made a huge difference to world events a century or so later, and that difference persists. British people generally like US citizens, and the opposite also pertains. That irritating argument about tea was consigned to history by people on both sides of the Atlantic more than a century before any of us were born! And it's absolutely irrelevant in international dealings today. People in the North American colonies would have been allowed to continue to tread their own path, irrespective of the political events which unfolded back then, much in the ways in which Canada, Australia, New Zealand, various colonies in Africa, Asia, Central America and Oceania are doing today. It's an unstoppable natural progression for all empires. All of us, irrespective of nationality, creed, colour, or whatever, need to foster friendship with people from other lands, rather than antipathy; it makes a much better life (and world) for all participants. Variety is the spice of life, after all. Have a really good 2019.

Well this really brings back memories. In the hot summer of 1976, when i was 9 years old, my dad drove off one day in his yellow Triumph Dolomite Sprint with black vinyl roof and returned a couple of hours later in the first ever Rover SD1 I’d seen. It looked like the future. Coincidentally it was the 3.5L V8 in yellow. He didn’t have the sunroof of Jeremy’s car but it looked awesome. Oh, and a few days earlier he had come home with £1000 in cash (to pay the deposit), showed it to me and said the immortal words “you’ll never see this much money again”. He was my hero for getting the SD1 but was wrong on that point. Today i drive a 3.5L V8 just like my dad, except mine’s a Lotus Esprit and TBH it’s “not exactly standard”. Ah, memories. Oh, and my son has done the school run in the Esprit for a few years now (pandemic aside) so hopefully he’ll view me one day the way i see my dad from 1976.

Pro tip, late 60's-70's British cars were very reliable and well made IF you got one that wasn't assembled in the UK. here in New Zealand they used to assemble them here for the local market. The build quality was excellent and they were as reliable as anything else on the road at that time although the odd oil leaking still persisted XD. I guess its because it avoided the union issues the UK was having at that time
