Has anyone else seen this? A light hearted look at great British cars on Ch5. Episode two featured the Mini, Hillman Imp, Austin 1100/1300, Escort to name but a few. Some of the "celebs" I'm not too familiar with but I recognise all of the cars.
My uncle used to rally a Hillman Imp and must admit I have soft spot for them. The Stiletto was a particular favourite.
Series has just started, next episode on Friday and there aren't many Car Shows on TV at the moment so its a thumbs up from me, the old ad clips are worth watching alone.

I never watch Channel 5 so would never have come across this. Thanks for the heads up 6MDM, I'll see if it is on catch-up. Sam.

I have seen the first 2 episodes, it is quite good, always nice to see old motors on TV, but it could do without some of the so called celebs giving opinions.

Agree on the celeb aspect but otherwise liked the programme. Passed my test in an Austin 1100 and always liked them

Hardly watch Ch5 either but will try and get the last episode on catchup, I'm sure I'd like it!

Another episode on tonight, cars featured are the Ford Capri and Lotus Europa, should be worth a watch. Villain
