Classic cars on the Tour of Cheshire historic car rally 2022 | Sights & sounds of Austins, Fords etc

[@stefantrnacek1394]

Just love the sound of Weber carbs working hard. I could listen to it all day.

[@gerardlacey9384]

It reminds me of my age, I remember in the late 70s doing pre delivery inspection s on the three or four mk2 rs2000 that we sold in the Ford dealership where I worked. Many thanks. G.

[@amishguy54]

looks like a fun day thanks for taking us along loved seeing that old Bently rip it up

[@rydermike33]

Excellent coverage of a great event, thank you. Great to see these lovely cars driven with gusto! (Hope the little Imp's troubles weren't too serious.)

Classic cars doing what classic cars should be doing!

Brilliant...loved it...funny story....in 1979 Knowsley Safari Park was a stage in the RAC Rally...I was selling cars for Heron Liverpool at the time with a company car...as part of a team of eight people we decided to take advantage of a pre race opportunity to take private cars round at race pace....little did we know that it was televised and the sales manager was watching eight of his cars being flung round the track...the Monday morning meeting was erm...not filled with joy..🙄...🤣🤣🤣🤣The message is to all future consumers that think buying a pre registered dealer car may not be a good decision...🙃

Ha great story :-)

[@peterbonnez]

Great to see this. I marshalled on this event for many years in my Mk1 MX-5. Good to see so many familiar cars. 7 VC TR4 is a replica of a works cars. Mercedes Ian Cramond #3 organises the Three Castles Rally in North Wales every June. The spinning GT6 competed in the 2020 Monte Historique in her Spitfire. The gearbox broke, but she managed to finish and get back home. I did the same event in a 1954 Daimler Conquest.

Good stuff 👍👍👍 Nice to see the cars getting a good workout instead of just polished and sat there...

[@carltwidle9046]

The old 1950s Swedish Volvo is amazing. It can get around the course much easier than the more recent cars in age.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

The old PVs handle really well, the Amazons are good too but I always felt that the earlier (narrower) cars had the edge

[@keithbarker7552]

Loved it thanks. 11 0ut of 10 on the Spinal Tap amp.

[@anviltech1839]

Great video. The Volvo Amazon looked a handful to get around.

[@alexmckenna1171]

Looks like Steed's Bentley :-) Off to chase the villains down twisty country lanes, with Mrs Peel at his side....

[@andyscorgie9713]

Lovely Richard such fun🤩

[@marinedrive5484]

Lots of thrills and the occasional spill. I was thinking whilst watching the action that some of those cars are quite valuable (Pagoda top, Mercedes, for instance) and yet, they were being thrown around the circuits quite swiftly - good to see!

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Yes with rising values seeing many cars pushed into de-humidified storage bags, it's refreshing that some owners still drive their cars with gusto. Thanks for watching

[@peterbonnez]

The driver of the Pagoda top runs the annual Three Castles Rally. I feel sorry for that car, he gives it some punishment!

[@marinedrive5484]

@@peterbonnez Yes, it leaves me in two minds. I like to see classics being driven (Goodwood, for example) but hate to see them being abused.

[@Vince_uk]

First Interesting and fun video

[@officinemeccaniche_fan2867]

When will it be Harley's turn to do some quick laps with the MX-5?

[@oldclassiccarUK]

He has driven it a few times, but only slowly :)

[@officinemeccaniche_fan2867]

@@oldclassiccarUK😂😂😂 I understand, you are going to release the Ford Anglia for his performance on the circuit.

[@Tom.Jackson.]

Well that was different I must say, although those poor little A40s was probs crying been ragged about 🤭

[@Neil1952100]

Not for me thanks. I'm not a fan of motorsport at all. Just my opinion, not a complaint against anyone.

[@oldclassiccarUK]

Fair enough, although it's quite mild in comparison to some motorsport, in many cases more like a brisk drive
