[@OldLien1]

[@Dg-zj6jo]

nice one

[@henryhol8538]

I last saw you and Ant at the NEC Restoration Show! Its good seeing you both together again. Regarding the origial Radford; I seen the Beatles Mini and the Aston DB5 Shooting Brake at classic car show. Many thanks for sharing this brilliant drive with us!👍🏽

[@stefanomastropietro9040]

Definitely prefer wafting along the road rather that this but still very enjoyable to watch

[@mrjohncharlesbrown]

Gary I prefer the Corniche... like sipping a Courvoisier brandy out of a crystal cut brandy glass rather than gulping it down from a plastic cup, it you know what I mean

[@campbelltroup2750]

Considering they keep saying 'it's only the tub that's Lotus' There is Lotus signs everywhere. On the back and on the seats.

[@minimeee04]

Its a very raw car at the moment.

[@jeroenstaal4907]

Hi Gary, I love your channel and i'm a hardcore follower! I can see how dedicated you are to put out professional looking content. Word of advice, that you are absolutely gonna ignore..Change the bombastic intro music, which sounds like you are watching an old ww2 war movie, and the Bob Ross, while painting piano music in between!;-) But if not, I will be still waiting for a new episode!

[@classic.obsession]

Appreciate your continued support. Send me a coupla great pieces that I can use…but it’s gotta be music I can use for free! Might take you a while!! Regards.

[@Andrew-vx2ls]

The lightest supercar is the Dallara...

[@Therighteousone522]

Made me laff when he said about the history of pikes peak then says we’ve only been here a fortnight 😂😂

[@ianbishop5651]

Steve McQueen double

[@classic.obsession]

Steve McQueens dad!! Regards

[@colingarner6175]

I can only think Ant got involved with Mike Brewer was for the money !!!😮

[@scottnaish-theheartpatient2016]

The major problem for this car is lotus have already released the Emira with the toyota 3.5 supercharged engine they have plans for a cup-car (track version ) soon , so why would you pay many times over for a Radford Gary never told us the price ?

[@a1topdog]

I seem to recall they start around £400k

[@craigyirush3492]

Or even better - get an Exige.

[@captainbrianwilkinson7723]

i have to say the foose Europa you featured eek they ruined it the wheels do not fit with it at all, but liking the channel

[@classic.obsession]

I agree but personal taste I suppose. The owner who was surprised with it was thrilled. Regards.

[@neilharrison7555]

Interesting! Shades of Ferrari F40 on the front, original Ford GT40 at the sides with scoops, plus some good hi-tech gizmos (rear view mirrors etc). Way above my (pension!) grade, but one can dream......

[@leehayes70]

Well it’s a no from me. Pointless. When you can glide in the Rolls…

[@cerb101]

Isn't this like the TVR story. Hope it doesn't go the same way.

[@jerehada]

Can’t believe you’d not heard of AP brakes ! Also aero used to use them.

[@marcusoutdoors4999]

They desperately need to put an analogue rev counter on this car. Similarly, the rear view screens are terrible, such details really matter. Redford need to look to Singer and Pagani for inspiration. There are other Lotus type fails with the door lock buttons. The windscreen wiper is a step backwards from my old Evora. I really wish them well, but if they don’t get the details right they’ll fail. Frustrating, less chat about the history of Redford and more attention to detail.

[@76ram1]

Lovely car but so dangerous with a full harness and no HANS device. Just asking for internal decapitation in an accident.

[@malfunction8165]

Nah.

[@jamesmoon8947]

Complete junk, what good is this outside Tesco's in Barnsley.

[@classic.obsession]

Would look great outside Aldi in Liverpool.

[@jbtc-zn9ih]

Was für eine Rappelkiste. Nicht jeder kann ein gutes Auto bauen.

[@pauljeffries]

I liked ant anstead until he left his wife and kids to go and live In America, he re married and was divorced again, doesn't look good 😮

[@davidcooks5265]

Your right, but that's his personal life!

[@markw4263]

Not a big fan of super-rich people and their exercises in wretched excess.

[@Ste2023]

what a beautiful colour and a stylish looking 1 . nice to see brewers mate usually fixing stuff as seen on Freeview 🥱 Great channel Gary

[@stringer-ik1pc]

Can't stand ant anstead. So won't be watching.
