Rustival Car Show - the greatest UK car show ever?!

[@kubbythebusman]

What a trooper. How the hell you have the energy to get this edited and posted after yesterday I'll never know. You were legging it about saying hello to every car coming in. Those that arrived early you were saying hello as you saw us, and you were on your feet all day! Hats off to you and the Rustival crew for your hard work and effort. I'm a total social hermit when it comes to stuff like this. And yesterday I was talking to loads of people and able to strike up conversations with people I've never met before such is the vibe you created. I cannot thank you enough for that! Can't wait for the next one!

[@idriveaclassic]

Ahhh thanks so much! I like to think I am a driven person and I passionately believe if people make the effort to come then I need to at least try and say a good morning to them!!!

[@robsawalker]

Top work Steph! So pleased it was such a success for you all.

[@HeyItsAJOmega]

I love how Nancy is front and centre on the main display, she's so happy to be there! Congrats on putting all this together, how amazing was it to see you and everyone's work come together for such a great show? 😊

[@idriveaclassic]

And she so deserved it. From a hand painted university first job motor to shiny penny at a car show. We’ve both come so far.

[@RogerGR]

You should be proud of yourself for helping put together such a great event! Enjoyed watching you talk to the owners of such a variety of vehicles, too.

[@UKBarnFinds]

It was such a great day and we loved bringing our little Austin along. The mix of cars was amazing and the owners so keen to tell anyone who asked all about their vehicles. We’re really happy for all of you that it went so well. You should be immensely proud of yourselves. Roll on next year!

[@AllThingsAlex]

Fab video and interviews mate. Was lovely to see you again, and thanks for taking time out to chat to me for my video coverage. You present so well x

[@Number27]

Great to see you Steph and really enjoyed the show!

[@idriveaclassic]

See you at the next one?!

[@Number27]

@@idriveaclassic of course!!

[@mpersad]

A lovely round up of Rustival. Steph, you and the multitude of seen and unseen, who brought this together, should take a deserved bow. Classic cars, and the community are just a heartening thing to see. Great video!

[@aaronhussain3873]

Goodness me, well done on getting this video out so swiftly! Even as a spectator, I was exhausted after the whole day. Well done to yourself and the team for putting it together. It was fab!

[@idriveaclassic]

I’ve been up since 6 working on it 😂

[@rodhili3946]

An absolutely superb day. Lovely cars and lovely people. I spoke to some members of the museum staff who all said that it was a pleasure to work that shift. That is a reflection on the organisers. Well done all

[@martinneumann7783]

Thank you Steph! For this marvellous and perfectly filmed report. Also a huge «thank you» to the person behind the camera. Now I have to have a look on what the others did... See you /// Martin

[@leeallen1407]

Never got chance to say Hello to you Steph , was busy taking pictures and talking ...and you were running round as well ....fantastic event and yes, it was THE GREATEST UK CAR SHOW EVER..i'm still buzzing

[@DrEvilsFinger]

Outstanding event guys. Well done!

[@adamwoods1635]

Looks like an amazing turn out. Hopefully this event will happen again. Would love to bring my beloved moggie along

[@bobfrankish8883]

Hi Steph, it was lovely to meet you yesterday and have a chat to Kevin, please thank him for his input on my current project problem when you next see him. It was great to see Danny Hopkins as well, there are few people who have done more than Danny for the good of the classic car movement. Long before the internet, I relied heavily on Practical Classics magazine to fuel my passion for the old cars. The show was a credit to you all and I'm sure there will be more of them, I hope so anyway.

[@urbo42]

Thanks for letting us see the cars. I was watching the Oscars and your presentation. My favorite movies weren't winning, so you brought more joy tonight!

[@bilko529]

Great video. Thank you steph. Keep up the good work x

[@kevinbray9550]

Congratulations to the organisers. It was a great turnout for the inaugural event and I hope it goes from strength to strength.

[@scragnut]

I thoroughly enjoyed the show yesterday and I’m glad I went. It was lovely speaking to you Steph as it’s always a pleasure to speak to you. It was nice speaking with the legend that is Kev, mainly about MGCs which I’ve always loved. All in all a very enjoyable day and I’m glad it all went very smoothly.

[@michaelstaunton1632]

A great video well done everyone involved in this brilliant event 👍👍👍

[@androo4519]

What a great event and a great community you and the other KZbinrs have built up over the years. Wish I could have joined you.

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

This was a fantastic event and so was Rustival 2, so looking forward to Rustival 3 in August, a great event and well organised by yourself, Matt, Ian and Carly and Team PRL.

[@Batesandrw]

Was really nice to be there, one of the best car shows I’ve been to.

[@dieselfan7406]

Great video, thanks. What an assortment. Had similar Ami in London in the 70s, great fun! Hope that the oil leak underneath your friend's car was there before he parked because the brake pipes used to leak on these. Happy Motoring Steph!

[@TVtwarn]

Super gutted I missed this ! Here’s hoping to another 😊 that gentleman with the robin trials machine seemed like a lovely chap and I’m quite impressed he gets that three wheeler out in the mud !

[@ДимаМалянов-ш7я]

thank you, very interesting, it’s not for nothing that I subscribed to your channel. No War! Freedom for Ukraine .

[@idriveaclassic]

I wish we could see peace and harmony across the earth. All the poor souls dying and suffering for the greed of a handful of people at the top.

[@stephenricketts7764]

You have an idea and organise an event (you and some others) and then hope people will come. If you had any doubts I am so glad that they were dispelled and everyone seemed to be having a great time. I hope there were many young people there who are taking an interest because there is a school of thought that the young have no interest in old classics. Thanks for posting this video Steph and for all your hard work putting the event together. Oh and I must not forget Nancy and indeed all the great vehicles that made it. 👍👍

[@rachelwhysall9169]

It was a great show certainly the best I’ve been to in a long time , nice to see Nancy and Peggy because I hadn’t met them before, some great cars there and I can’t wait for next year’s show!😁🚗

[@kenmoore589]

Well done, I love the way you try to include everybody especially the next generation.

[@anthonystevens8683]

Unfortunately due to recovering from a cold I missed this one so many thanks Steph for sharing some of Rustival with us. Some great cars. It's great to encourage the younger generation into the hobby as well, we need them to keep it all going long after some of us are gone. Joseph really is an inspiration.

[@mrcogginsgarage7062]

Brilliant to see all your hard. Work paying off Steph ,looks like it was a great day congratulations.

[@idriveaclassic]

Thanks lovely x

[@bobspeller2225]

Well, that turn out very well, The Rustival car show, seems to be a success and very nicely presented by you. congratulations . All the best Bob

[@johnwakefield2496]

What can I say that probably hasn't been said already? Thank you, Ian, Carly and Matt so so much for pouring so much of your time and effort into this amazing event and then taking the time to interview people and show us their amazing car's and put a vlog out for us. You are all truly amazing and as a petrol head who can't travel or drive anymore this is the next best thing to being there for me 🤗 xx

[@MJTeale]

First time in years I've posted on KZbin. Excellent Video, well paced, full of interest, superb photography and editing. Very professional. Well done.

[@davidhinkson8856]

Such a wide variety of cars on display and some interesting people too. You highlighted some very impressive project cars, and I wish the young man on dialysis all the best on his upcoming journey. That takes a lot of courage and it's good to see he has some friends assisting him along the way.

[@andyf750]

You're a brilliant presenter Steph. Wishing you every success. x

[@idriveaclassic]

Thank you lovely xx

[@James-ld2jc]

It was a really great event. Some great cars and a really good atmosphere. Nice to see my own car on video (it was in the background when you were talking about the Alfasud).

[@sonofdat]

That was excellent! Great turnout. what a variety of cool cars!

[@julien7464]

Thanks Steph, despite paid up for yesterday, I was too poorly, so it’s been fantastic seeing what I missed. Well done to all who brought their fantastic car’s, hopefully be there next time (assuming).

[@stephenwestley1017]

That's how car shows should be run/like a great concept encompassed everything ❤

[@peterowen4456]

Marvellous stuff and some great back stories as well. Really well presented Steph - you are a natural and I'm so pleased for you and the other organisers that the first Rustival went so well.

[@tyrannodex8472]

Great event, so well organised and a lovely vibe throughout the day. Don't think I've seen a negative comment anywhere which is so refreshing with such a mix of vehicles, of which not all can ever be to everybody's taste. Hope you find use for the Marina Haynes manual :) Look forward to next year (if I don't see you somewhere sooner!)

[@Roger.Coleman1949]

Lovely video Steph.You're a natural presenter and interviewer and great to meet such lovely people across the old car community , especially to Joe on his forthcoming epic and worthy fund -raising mission.

[@idriveaclassic]

I’m really hopeful for Joe. It’s a big undertaking when he is poorly.

[@jamesm90]

A really great show. I had a brilliant time, well done!👍

[@Liamduffers2]

This looked fantastic! Would've loved to have come along - hope there's something closer for us in Scotland in the future! 🤞

[@stuartkynoch7289]

Great video as usual Steph! I was really pleased you looked at the Singer. My fathers first car was a Singer LeMans coupe. He bought it for 20 quid way back in the 50's.

[@thtmotoring]

Thank you so much for this brilliant event Steph! Loved dropping in and fingers crossed I'll have a working classic to bring next time!

[@IanSpeller]

Loved the event a true inclusive venture long may it continue, just nice to have all interests together at a fabulous location. Also shout out for the stewards.

[@julianlyons711]

Great show and really enjoyed the day .. congratulations on a job well done ., Good to see such a mixture of cars of all budgets and condition together in a show that was just about the cars and owners .. great atmosphere, with no corporates or tin sign sellers .. brilliant ..

[@micrashed]

Well done Steph - I saw a lot of photos on Autoshite and it looked a brilliant well turned out event.

[@envoycdx]

Enjoyed myself yesterday - worth the drive from Newcastle Upon Tyne most certainly :)

[@jetblack6953]

Thanks Steph,great show those old cars are what I grew up with and always nice to see they are still on the road.

[@davidking9707]

Great work and a big well done. I wished I was there as my MINI needs a new gearbox and I needed to see my mother. I hope to attend a future event.

[@lukemallory7832]

Props to the Singer chap! Well done to all involved!

[@bobadkins7377]

This is a great channel! I have learned so much about great British cars. I can recognize some of the brands now. Very good coverage of this event. Thanks.

[@bergolli1]

Great video with those sometimes unique cars. I will watch it again tomorrow Greats from Germany

[@richardtomkinson9951]

Top interviews with the folk and their cars, some interesting stories getting the cars back on the road. Great work Team!

[@jimmaclachlan9535]

Enjoyed it thoroughly,well executed,slick well done, thank you.....

[@PHILIPLAMB-y9z]

Steph what a fabulous, interesting show. You are such a professional, everyone feels so comfortable with your interviewing style that they open up and spill the beans !.... Give the lass her own TV show !!... Love the range of things you are doing ...not just test drives....well done ...thanks for your efforts..you are appreciated even here in South Africa !! :-)

[@allanmollison6971]

Thanks for sharing Steph and congratulations on organising such a phenomenal show. 😊👍

[@AndrewwMK]

Thanks to you and the team for a fantastic day and event. Great location and really cool vibe, plus lots of unique cars. Really enjoyed it!!

[@josephmifsud8261]

What a fabulous show. Well done to all of you for organising and running this. Loved the Cavalier, Montego and Alfasud in particular. Going to have to get the day off for next year's show, and need to work out whether to get a Rover P6 or Triumph 2000/2.5Pi, or both. We need people like yourselves and all the enthusiasts to keep classic car interest going.

[@benhooper1956]

This was an utterly incredible event Steph, well done to all involved I had a fantastic time :))

[@RetroRich2000]

My partner and I had a lovely conversation with George and his Super Robin; He's such a lovely guy and it was such a pleasure to meet him

[@markwade1376]

Rustival looked to be a great show Steph and you got lucky with the weather too. As a side note I have to praise you on your interviewing prowess I'm guessing you aren't an interviewing pro but you do a great job👍👍

[@Zermattquattro]

Loved the silver Renault 10 (towards the end of the vid). I had the slightly earlier model with the round front lights but in the same colour. Great little car and Uber cool.

[@johnbarr09]

Great vlog 😊 I served my time on vauxhall chevettes ☺️ so brilliant to see them again, an array of vintage and classic cars all beautiful in there own way

[@DonConstance]

Blimey that was quick, you must’ve been up half the night editing! I really enjoyed yesterday, well done and thanks to you and everyone else involved in getting Rustival off the ground 👍

[@glennmckenzie1096]

This made me soooo happy!

[@Loudini514]

Absolutely amazing festival! More than a pleasant surprise to see JayEmm on cars wondering about too! Well done to everyone who helped put it together

[@deanmilward3917]

That's a great video, loved meeting the owners.

[@JimTheCorsa]

Great video and even better day. Thank you for all your hard work putting on such a fantastic event xx

[@jonathanwebster4245]

Hi Steph, couldn’t come this year so was looking forward to seeing the video. You and the team have done a fantastic job. Glad the weather was good too. Top job!! Best wishes.

[@SuitsandCylinders]

Thanks for giving me the chance to fly the flag for pre-war cars! Great show and I look forward to the rest!

[@idriveaclassic]

Our pleasure!

[@djtaylorutube]

Really good concept, no snobbery, everything welcome. We turned up in our beloved old Volvo 850 in the main car park. Maybe if this is repeated, a little later in the year to favour better weather? One of my cars is a bit of a garage queen that only goes out on dry days (or ones that look like they're going to remain dry!)

[@habsom1406]

Well presented, great interviews with real people, great camera work and editing too. What a fabulous turn out, well done guys! 👍🙏😎

[@GunnarMiller]

Gaydon's a great venue for a car show. Last May I when I was at Packington Estate for a Land Rover show, I visited the museum, and there was a small event going on; I think you really managed to fill up the whole lot with 1,000 cars.

[@bondbug73]

Yes it's the best one I've been to, because I got to meet plenty of KZbinrs and their motors. Had a nice chat with Kev too. Very well organised and a fun day out.

[@RussCook-kn7rb]

Great video Steph, the event looks amazing!

[@paulchappell]

I’m late in commenting, and just the 298th “like” (“like”? Absolutely LOVE). What a wonderful vlog. And I will be donating to Joseph’s cause.

Loved your vlog, what a great day out in descent weather, loved the cavalier ❤️

[@RonaldThomas-j9g]

Rustival car show is simply the best that I have seen on youtube and Steph you have really done a truely wonderful job in putting together is wonderful car show and I hope that it become's a yearly event and the great looking car's from old to near new love it .

I’m certain it will do x

That was a fantastic show! Really enjoyed it well done for all the organisers 😊😊😊 absolutely superb 👍👍👍 never seen such an interesting mix of cars 😎👌👌👍👍

[@Dan23_7]

I remember you being on a caravan program a while ago. You’re a great interviewer. Montego’s… ahhh I love them, in 2006 I owned A234 UYU, a 1.6, gold with beige velour interior. I found out it was the second one off the production line from Longbridge. If you google the reg you can see photos of it. There’s a brown Mayfair in my town 😍. I live in a very famous town….

Youve done as absolutely marvellous job there Steph , I thoroughly enjoyed watching you. Great effort.

[@jeffreywhitehead9386]

A very enjoyable episode so thank you Steph for brightening our evening down here in Melbourne Australia. I've drive a 1963 Holden Premier in Roebuck Pearl and a 2001 Liquid Silver Ford AU series 3 Fairmont Ghia thanks in part to Hub Nut. We really hope to see you down here one day.

[@Dino_Dad.]

@jeffreywhitehead9386 nice where in Melbs? I'm just a bog standard ba ute guy 🤣

[@jeffreywhitehead9386]

@@Dino_Dad. Too funny. My daily driver is a BA ute with XR ride and dual fuel. I just dropped a very low mileage Barra in it because the head had corroded through. $499 from Harvey's for a good Barra. Was the cheapest solution. I also have an ED XR6 wagon here in Seaford. I also have a sister into restoring cars. She just sold her Dodge Charger she fully restored and she's now looking for something small and British to enjoy.

[@Dino_Dad.]

Steph that was such a fantastic video , nice interviews and so professionally done. ❤from Melbourne

[@idriveaclassic]

Ahh thanks so much h xx

[@berwhaletheavenger]

Of all the cars there....second best for me is the red Cavalier. Such a good car - folk don't often realise how good they were. But the green Alfasud Ti! How on earth has that survived? I had an R registered 1977 1200Ti 38 years ago and it was knackered even then. Mechanically good, the body was shot. It was common to find 6 year old ones in scrapyards back in the eighties. I had several Suds between 1986 and 1997 and I don't think I ever paid more than £350 for one. To my mind they were the best thing Alfa made.

[@MGBetts1]

Well done for getting your video up before Mr HubNut and Mr Furious! I've already seen a contingent of Renaults, but not much else as yet.

[@idriveaclassic]

To be fair, the HubNuts are camping!!!

[@davefrench3608]

Looked to be a great success, well done.

This looks fantastic! Well done for all your hard work, it certainly paid off by the looks. I'll be there next year if the 340 manages the 4hr+ drive 😅

[@arthuradderley5872]

I'm so glad I made the journey down from Glossop yesterday, it was a great day. I hope to exhibit next year if you repeat the show.

[@idriveaclassic]

We will 😘

[@steveosshenanigans]

Great work Steph

[@frglee]

That model Vauxhall Victor FC is more than a hunk of metal to me for sure - as an 11/12 year old in the 1960s, I used to wash and wax the family car sometimes, so I remember every bump, handle, chrome strip and groove of it - the smell of Turtle Wax on a warm Summer's day still comes back to me...🙂

[@Zeem4]

The red Cavalier is lovely, but I was a bit distracted during the interview because that's my blue Mk1 Focus you're standing next to. The bloke in the Cavalier overtook me on the way there. Weirdly, there was an almost identical Mk1 Focus - same age and colour - behind me in the queue going in, but then he parked miles away from me.

[@thatcheapguy525]

really good. excellent presentation, very very professional

[@paulscountrygarage9180]

Well done Steph as well as Matt and Ian. Looks to have been a brilliant show. Watching from Australia made me jealous.
