BUILT not bought

Gordo

Sure is - tear down would be interesting as it could have been a block failure that then broke the crank, etc.
These are my thoughts and opinions - sometimes I'm wrong, but not often ;-)

took a while to dig up this topic, but rather than staring something new . . .

I don't know how old this series is (video quality isn't too sharp), but this one at least is a bit of a stunner, Alain de Cadenet onJaguar's racing heritage driving some verrry valuable cars quite vigorously, turn the sound up and enjoy

I do quite enjoy Jonny, he's straight up with a touch of humour

in another channel, possibly the car pervert, he's putting a Honda V6 into a 2 door Austin Allegro

Car pervert is now renamed The Late Brake Show.
I have been subscribed to him for a while as he features a variety of interesting vehicles, apart from regular moderns , and does a honest revieew, if a little 'quirky' without the b.s. spouted by some UTubers..

I watched Doug de Muro on the Citroen CX Prestige yesterday, how many times can you say quirky and how many ways can you pronounce Citroen?

being critical of Citroen design compared with contemporary US cars that were so unadventurous is a bit one-eyed

reminded me why I don't watch Doug any more

Before I comment, id like to tell you about Cars and Bids....

French cars are an oddity in the USA.

He did say he loved the car and did point out many valid quirks and features so standard practice.

The fact he loves the soft top G Waggon is still more concerning to myself.

Have recently started following Meguiars UK. They seem to support many UK channels and I really enjoyed their "VS" builds. Shows the level of enthusiasm and skill of shops and specialist manufacturers in the UK.
