Extremely Rare Classic Car’s Left & Forgotten In A Forest.. Unbelievable Discovery!!

[@r.davies2702]

That MK1 Escort was actually a MK2.

Yes I know how silly of me!! 🙈😂😂

Love your videos. New subscriber. Keep them coming.

[@M4BoarBiker]

I think the fiat is a 131 super mirafiori. A great car in its day (late 70's) but they did rust badly.

[@robertbransby]

My dad had one in white, was lovely till the floor rotted through, lovely twin cam engines in those

[@Nick-Emery]

When I was a kid in the 80’s My dad had this weird lada with round headlights, not sure what type but I didn’t see any of these lada’s around. it had a Mira fiori engine in it. A lot of his cars had different engines dropped in them

[@sarahtaylor2492]

Wow what a special find. The old sierra is pretty special and the mk2 escort. Brilliant explore Collin x

[@rodmintern]

😊😊Hello. as a Classic car owner already....after spending Five Years. restoring it Nut and Bolt. and many many hours and days.. it was a Labour of Love.. not gain. it was a Joy when it Started and Drove it out.... so when someone like me, is keen to find another Project.. for the same reason.. we see all these features showing these finds... where are they. so we can buy them for restoration..rather they just lay there and rot.. what a waste...

[@jamescourt4703]

The old hidden tractor was a massey fergison, te20. Lovely old machines. I belive they were the first tractors to have the 3 point linkage system for the farm implements.

[@bikerbloke02]

The MK1 Escort is a MK2 and the Standard Ten was an Austin A35

[@massivley]

Crying shame that so many vehicles have been left to rot, cannot get enough of watching these videos

[@neildaniel8232]

The MkII Escort last had a V5 change in 1999 but has been declared SORN so someone has had to have done that since 2005 (it had to be done annually up until then, it now stays until it's either sold, taxed or an address change). Looks incredibly clean considering it's been off the road since then!

[@dnf1903]

It's a mk 3 Escort

[@gdfggggg]

@@dnf1903it’s a mk2

[@harrietlivengood6793]

You truly have a love for old abandoned cars. All I could think about was all the snakes hiding in the cars and overgrowth. Yikes 😬🐍

[@bionicnichola9251]

​@edwinthompson6510 we have Adders which are far and few between.

[@karl_in_oz]

2.3 diesel sierra is super rare, even rarer with the period aftermarket 'sierra' lens cover thingy on the rear. Green mk2 escort is in great shape aswell. Awesome video

[@mikespikeey4625]

T REG ESCORT was a MK 2,,,sad to see them rotting way GO BACK IN THE WINTER

[@derekstocker6661]

Well done on this find, some great vehicles there and the Escort was a fair condition, lovely to see the horses as well!

[@thughes52]

Some awesome classic cars colin esp the 4door mk2 escort definitely clean enough to need a rescue attemot ,great find 👍

[@ffrancrogowski2192]

Finding these old car sites in the middle of nowhere is so exciting to watch. You don't know what you're going to find, and I'm on the edge of my seat while watching. I'm pleased for you to discover unexpected vehicles out there. One car that sticks out to me is that Standard 10, so unbelievably incredible to see one of those, after all the time since they were rolled off the production line. Keep your car search up, and thank you for going to the trouble with your lady, to give us all great watching. Keep well and safe from brambles and nettles!

[@amandabeech8472]

Hope you are ok and didn’t get stung too much, nature amazing me how much it can take over, great video. Colin

[@mandymoo7406]

the fiat 2 litre twinky might have been a fiat 132,i had one ,lovely car it was,rare rare now

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Oh this was absolutely fabulous ❤ Every time I see cars from this era I hope for a Mk1 Fiesta, but knowing how much rust work I was doing to keep mine on the road I'm not surprised they don't survive 😔 Really fantastic video 😊

[@The_Bearded_Wanderer]

Another Amazing explore! I love a vehicle graveyard 🥰

[@bombadilian]

Absolutely fascinating. Superb video. Thank you.

[@mick0846]

Need to go back in the winter when there's less foliage

[@sixgearsvanlife7868]

mk2 escort

[@spikeyplants438]

Hi Colin another great video with added jungle explore lol! Real shame about some of those cars they could have been restored a while back. I think you need to hang up your shorts those nettles must really hurt. Great commentary as usual Colin with added horse whispering very impressive. Look forward to next weeks. Take care.😀

[@Caleb0106]

Those minis and the mk2 escort would be savable for sure! And maybe the mk1 depending on what model/age it is

[@Caleb0106]

Obviously I mean the mk1 golf🤦‍♂️😂

[@john0597]

Hi Colin great video I love the car videos I really do I watch this I watched this Sunday the 16th of September 23

[@andrewcollins8774]

It’s shameful seeing these cars that could of been saved.

[@FRFRANKIE]

Hi Colin & Ashley. Hope your doing good. That was an amazing video. That was cool seeing that Ford Sierra diesel.

[@martinevans1256]

Some gems there and a mk2 escort

[@john0597]

That's Stephanie and Mark 4 Ford Escort I had one well actually I had 3 of them makes you want to cry really the reason I say that is because these vehicles can be restored by someone who knows what they're doing and be back on the market and back on the road I mean for goodness sakes you could even convert them into electric vehicles

[@holliepajak3772]

Fabulous fine . You’re so good at what you do .

[@nickb5391]

@10.30, Austin A35

[@ExploringwithAustinandThomas]

Great video! After getting stung so many times in shorts I had to give in and wear jeans on our explores. 😂

[@briansweeney2291]

Nice find Colin next time bring a big stick to help flatten those nettles 😎👍

[@anthonycouldlewissimmons]

Great video Colin as always try wearing trousers in the future haha take care my friend all the best Tony and Helen❤❤

MK2 Escort

[@TheBeardedExplorer]

Yes I know how stupid of me hahah

[@ianevans3619]

What an amazing video , I enjoyed watching this so much 👍

[@alasdairvincent6248]

The old Massey Ferguson excavator looks like she would run, with a bit of tinkering. The mini van would have been worth worth saving to restore. These are pretty rare now and can fetch good money.I’m sure I saw an old Standard 8 or 10 sitting there too. This was fascinating.

[@connerhuetson3581]

Yep the location will get out, and parts will be stolen and the cars will be vandalised, as a few other locations have been the the past, because “locations aren’t shared”

16:10 - Fiat 131 Mirafiori Escort MK 1 is actually MK2

[@markevans2280]

The mk3 escort you thought, is actually a mk4, you can tell by the door locks, the guy mainly had diesel cars so he was into diesels rather than collecting them just to store stuff in as diesel cars cost a premium in the 90’s

[@gillam91]

i think the blue car that you thought was a mk1 golf could be a mk1 cortina

[@mikeyb3718]

Forget the Escorts... that Fiat 131 needs saving!

[@russellpetrie119]

i wish these places could talk know the wheres and whys

[@chrisst8922]

To think they'd have been someone's pride and joy. Collected from the dealership, possibly with a bouquet for her.

Great explore colin

[@russellpetrie119]

someone was definitley living there

[@joeknocker8454]

Great vid as always and would be awesome if you went back in winter in a few months when the nettles and overgrowth have died back to get a better look at whats actually there . The Escort is the most saddening as its very very salvageable and frustrating why someome would just leave them to rot BUT when they bought them they were most likely cheap runaround cars or even cars that needed work .

[@stul71]

The Sierra 2.3D C696YEH, these have a 5 digit odo so my guess that mileage 45k would more likely be 145k. Otherwise a real shame. Another fab video Colin.

[@malcolmhutchison62]

Have you thought about taking a small drone with you on these adventures?

[@johndavis3284]

the green one

[@richkent7938]

Another great upload, Colin. Some classic Models here: they should be locked away in someone's Garage/Lock-Up, not rotting away as they are. So sad.

[@Spirit444]

They are beyond being stored in any kind of unit

[@craigfayers6735]

Sierra XR4 for me, always loved that shape. What a shame they are all left to rot like that, I bet they are all still there in 20 years?😢

[@clairefunnell8481]

Poor old cars, what a big waste. Beautiful horses. Didnt look like the cows were too bothered about you being there. Wear pants Colin, less ouchy from those darn stingy nettles. Pity.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
