Who needs tv channels when you Colin n Stu get together best most interesting informative show there is many thanks lads!

Some amazing vehicles in that location. Some of these could still be saved and restored. They deserve a better future than to be left decaying. A great explore there guys.

Exactly. Such a shame…

That was trip back for me. I used to build Hawker Hunters at our Dunsfold aerodrome and spent many hours in the fuselage where you were fitting fuel systems, hydraulics and fire extinguisher plumbing amogst other stuff. 1970s, great days.

The double track vehicle looks like a Sisu Nasu. Very similiar to the one Heavy D built on Diesel Brothers..... epic "Go Anywhere" machine. Great video 👍🏻

The Beech 76 was written off in 2009 when it was landed with the undercarriage still retracted.

[@Mr-Tazor]

The Beech 75 was built in 1979 and de-registered in 2009. It had 5680hrs on the clock as of 2007.

There (the Green tracked vehicles)BV 206 used in Norway. Powered by a Mercedes’ turbo diesel or a Ford depending on year. Used it myself in Norway & Bosnia & Iraq

M-973 Cargo Carrier Tracked 1 1/2 ton 2320 Kilometers 5 cylinder Mercedes Benz Turo Runs and works Excellent The challenging Arctic environment requires military vehicles with performance equal to the cold, wet, and rugged conditions. Since the M29 Weasel half-ton tracked cargo carrier was dropped by the Army in 1958, there was no snow-capable vehicle for support of extreme cold weather operations. A new vehicle was needed to fulfill the Army’s requirements for arctic operations, a support vehicle with excellent on- and off-road mobility, easily maintainable, highly reliable in extremely cold weather, able to carry at least one ton of supplies, and helicopter transportable. In November 1982, the M-973 Small Unit Support Vehicle (SUSV) was type classified for the role.

[@lx1995Mk2]

Can't say I love those style of tall bumpers on cars but I could deal with it if it comes with a Scooby, and the 33 seems like a good wash and tune up would have running nicely.

[@gregory1953able]

The Nissan Impressa next to the Mustang looks like a Chevy Malibu rear end. The Mustang is sharp too.

[@noxited1545]

That green tracked vehicle is probably a Bandvagn 206 that Hägglunds made.

[@patm8622]

" I say....Ding Dong" was a saying by actor Leslie Phillips, a major comic actor of the 50s & 60s. Is the BMW a 1602 or 2002? Beautiful car no matter what, needs saving Long with the scooby.

[@danw3530]

Its not a tank its a Soviet APC called BMP. They've been knocking about for years. They appear mostly these days in the middle East. Still in active service. One of those things that the Soviets built and built and built.

[@paulchambers3142]

32:21 It's not an APC but an I FV....infantry fighting vehicle. BMP1 soviet era from the 1950s. Still being used today by both the Russians and Ukrainians in the war in Ukraine.

The GTR has only 40k on the clock apparently, according to online mot checker.

[@cruizzer77]

G-BODX, the Beechcraft plane, had its registration withdrawn on 22.10.2009 following an accident in a training flight. When I was a language student in Cambridge my landlady had a Ford Orion which must likely have been around 89 vintage too. Unfortunately I couldn't drive in the UK because every driver must be registered with the insurance company. There are some really interesting vehicles there, bummer they were and are sitting outside. I agree the Discovery would be awesome in this outfit and it doesn't look in too bad a condition either!

Great finds guys. The blue BMW @ 13' isn't a proper 318is, interesting to see all the rally prepped 205gti's. The Renault @21' used to be fairly commonplace. The " Cosworth" looks like it was meant to be a competition or replica : plastic windows, cage etc. Lightwight would be a nice thing to have.

[@mohammeddmalik]

The 318iS is a real one. They made the 16v iS in a saloon towards the end of the e36 run (1998 onwards), prior to that is was an 8v 318i in saloon.
