“We Had One of Those!” evokes fond memories and stories.
Our new “We Had One of Those!” display outside the National Motor Museum has evoked a myriad of fond memories and stories.
On display in the new nostalgic car dealership forecourt, located just outside the National Motor Museum, are classics including a Volkswagen Beetle for the 1960s, the car everybody loved to hate in the 1970s - an Austin Allegro, a Vauxhall Cavalier for the 1980s and a Ford Fiesta for the 1990s - so many people’s first car.
Each car is filled with nostalgic items, from beaded seats inside the Vauxhall Cavalier to fluffy dice hanging in the window of the Austin Allegro. These items and vehicles are bringing back the sights, sounds, and even the smells of motoring histo...

    I watch this footage and a lovely steam of similar- era movies, and it reinforces why the modern F1 leaves me bored and yawning. Back then, the cars were simpler, the drivers brave, characterful and underpaid. The adverts were not in your face like spangled confetti and a lot of the fella's in the crowd wore their Sunday best: Blokes in shirts and tie's, the ladies , dresses and the kids looked like me when I was going to motor racing in the 60's- full of wonder and only a few feet from the action. No lycra-clad pit tarts smiling and distracting and the cameras focused on capturing the essence of speed. I'm entering Codger land here I know, but what utter joy to see this footage. Thanks for posting.

    Why does the FW15C wear Coulthards name on it? Is it the CVT-car which he tested in 1993?

    • @NationalMotorMuseum
      @NationalMotorMuseum 18 дней назад

      This car, FW15C chassis 01, was used for testing and was initially fitted with experimental continuously variable transmission (CVT), but this technology was banned before the start of the 1993 season. It carries the markings of David Coulthard, the Williams test driver for the 1993 and 1994 seasons.
