living the dream: France part 1 Automotive relic hunting

[@PerrieHulett]

Just fantastic content from beginning to end. All these billionaires with their hyper cars worth millions don’t get half the enjoyment we get from rusty pre war historic works of art. I absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much Brian for another top vid. 👍

[@Abandon7d]

[@lanceneuman9528]

Speechless, you Dutch and French friends are beyond it. This deserves a million views or more. Maybe the best thing I've ever seen on the Tube. That Trans Am is just wonderful, as is everything. Thanks

[@briandamaged323]

Those Peugeot 203s were great cars, the engine was a Peugeot X-series1290cc hemi-head four-pot that (in typical French style) served for years, in the later 403 (1955-1966) in 1468cc form (my Dad still has the 403 he bought in 1982), the 404 (1960-1975) with 1618cc, the 504 (1968-1983) with the same engine canted over and enlarged to 1796cc/1971cc and the 505 (1978-1992)....as well as in the Peugeot/Fiat/Citroen Ducato/C25 range of vans produced from 1981-1994. Absolutely brilliant, can't wait for Part 2!

[@oakswamp]

awesome ...i will look into that motor ! thanks dude

[@adamweston4152]

19:37 the anthill mob car from wacky races 😂, my dad has a house in the Vendée and there used to be a barn full of old french vehicles nextdoor but they are all gone now, France is such a lovely place though, Casper is living the dream and his collection is incredible, thanks for a very entertaining video!.

[@oakswamp]

our pleasure ...thanks for watching

[@davejobe6282]

@@oakswamp Hi Bryan I'm in Oregon We are located in a beautiful little historic town that is only 1 hr west to the beach and Sand dunes an 1 hr east to beautiful and majestic Crater lake. I'll show you my stash of cool shit then take you fishing down the Umpqua River down to the ocean and then strap you in a Can Am side by side and rip up the sand dunes. Which could possibly end up on the beach for a campfire and party a little bit . I really love the mojo of your channel and I'm pretty sure you and crew won't be disappointed 😎✌️

We hope to catch you at Beaulieu. Hang loose bro.

Character, Style and Charisma - and that's just the Ironmongery! Seriously now, anyone who can extol the artistic virtues of the Vespa scooter, fairground rides, etc should have his own Arts & Design programme on BBC 2 - so much better than some of the pretentious crap we have to tolerate.
