Thank you for another great auction video. Surprised the RS Turbo, Minis and MK3 Fiesta did not sell for more. Take care, Mitch. Looking forward to more auction videos.
Great to see they young generation enjoying the classics ( I have owned/driven/many many Cortina's MK1/2/3 ... 4.2 Jag Mini Mayfair Hillman Avenger Austin 1100 Bond 3 wheeler looking forward to seeing more of your videos Thanks
Another great video, thanks for putting on the sale prices. I had an identical 205 GTi back in the mid 90’s and traded it in for about £3000 if I remember correctly. If only eh!! Keep up the great work and thanks for putting in the miles to cover these auctions
That was great. Nice quick flowing video. You covered everything well and all the cars where fab. I liked all the Escorts, especially that MK1 rally and the black RS1600, amazing!
mk1 bubble arches.15:40.all i saw was the wheel nearly rubbing the back..somethings not right.the mk3 fiesta with 34k miles..meanwhile the seats look like they have done 134k
What a lot of people seem to forget about the escorts and stuff and the Rs Turboa is that the mileage only went up to 100,000 or just under and then it restarted again so a lot of these cars have actually been round the clock and when it all went over to digital online MOT‘s there was nothing from the old days so a lot of these cars are well over 100,000 miles
I dare say your right, but some classics you can view the mot’s back and if the mileage goes up in small increments then the mileage usually is genuine 👍🏻
Loving your videos. Trouble is I now want to take my cash out of the untrustworthy bank and buy a classic.......at least, at my age, my son will get it soon!
Good luck. Subbed. I like you channel. You and your wonderful partner come across very well. She looks amazing. You come across as very relatable. Great to show the hammer drop. Great timing and content. I wish you success. You have more views than subscribers. You have a future doing this.
These videos are quality , just stumbled across them. Brilliant content without making the videos about yourself like so many others. I love 1980s Ford so keep them coming. Never been to a car auction in my life but would have bought the black mk 3 escort rs1600i and now been divorced 👌🏻. Keep it up mate , really good watch
Mitch, you’re seriously gonna get me into trouble keep showing all these Minis 😱. One day temptation will get the better of me. Not sure the Mrs will understand 😅
Great vidio in the I owned a Mk 1 escort 1300 XL a 2 ltr Granada L a Mk 2 1300 Cortina a Mk 3 1600 Cortina a Mk 2 , 2ltr Carpri another mk 3 2ltr Cortina estate, Ford zephyr 4 and finally a 1962 Ford consul showing my age now lol
Bmw 318is is a sport injection. I had one but a common fault was the top end on the engine would split as it was an ally head. Mine cost me 2 grand to get done.😢
I had a blue mk2 like yours 👍🏻 £300. I remember buying a mk2 ghia for £50 and an xr2 for £50 each both rotters but done me a turn :) I paid £225 for a mini back in the day, awesome memories:) Sadly those days are gone :( love the vids mate:)
the E36 bm was the nuts ive had 2 of them but not like that one it is mint the white mk 1 looked odd mitch wheels looked to far back .the brown one was nice .anyway it was a great video fella
Thanks Mitch for another great video, I do not think there was anything I did not like, some of the minis went cheap and I would like especially liked the Lotus Cortina, my Dad had a 1950s ford consul with a 3-speed column gear change.
The BMW 318i S will be a 1.9 16 valve 140 bhp. Unless i'm Wrong. being the " S model it may have many other features over & above the Std 318i. The BMW 318i " S " 2 dr Coupe is & always was a VERY Desirable car.
@@Mk2Mitch I Ordered & Bought a 318 Ti Sport New in yr 2000. it was a " Baby M3 " 4 cyl 1.9 16 valve, In AVUS Blue Met' ( M3 Colour ) Cloth Folding Elec Sunroof ( Webasto Style ) Factory Badged " M SRPORT " on all the trims & Rubbing Strips etc. " 318 Ti SPORT MODEL " not Sport Option pack. A Direct Competitor for the Golf GTi & similar Fast Hot Hatches. Mine was the 140 bhp 1.9 16 valve M40 engine. £19,000 back in yr 2000. 23 yrs ago. S/Roof was £1,000 option. ALL Singing & All Dancing Top of The Range Model.
prices seemed realistic for the normal cars RS1600i + lotus tina for me, liked the mk1 fester- my first car, CCN 704V, 2yrs old, £2500 inc. finance, nearly bankrupted me... [especially after spending 2k on genuine rallye sport parts at the local ford parts dept.] those were the days you NEVER got your money back... don't bother looking, died in germany on tour with a squaddie, was very fast up to 80mph
15 k for an original 1.6 205 GTI that's awesome. I have a fast road, track car 1.9 205 GTI graphite grey with 2.0 ltr engine with modified suspension, many rare parts etc and the floor pan all painted with Epsom paint used on boats. Engine bay repainted. It will not rust using that stuff. It's a non sun roof with zender front n rear bumper looks awesome. So because of this I know in another 10 years its gonna be worth loads of money. Its a 1992 non cataliq converter,
@@Mk2Mitch on rs1600i they are offfset for some reason and exhaust is different we’re they goat rear they go through the rear wishbone if I rember right not around like xr3i
used to get a lift to my work in a lotus cortina exactly like the one shown back in 1977ish but was a bit young to appreciate it, I knew it was special just not how special though
That’s so cool, love hearing memories like this! When I went to school the caretaker had a mk2 xr2 and I never realised how obsessed I would be over classic fords once I left school!
Hiya totally new to your channel love the content tbh. Was shocked at the mk3 even more shocking that you didn’t buy. Can I ask is this content purely to show what’s going on. Or content of you possibly buying one and the journey??
Surprised the white Escort only made 18000...... wish I'd have been there, it would have found a new home with me (probably). Way under-priced in my humble opinion, my 74 Escort (ex rally car) is currently insured for almost 3 times that sale price
sorry but that shud be against the law and the last owners arrested putting a poxhall engine in a classic ford.. if its a ford fit a ford if its a vauxhall then fit a red top
On mini engines, just look at the plate under the radiator side spark plug, 85H=850cc 99H=1000cc 10H=1100cc and 12H=1275cc
Thank you! I’m going to pin this comment so I remember 😎
That gray/silver Escort is so my cup of tea, what a beauty!
Was very nice indeed 👍🏻
Thank you for another great auction video. Surprised the RS Turbo, Minis and MK3 Fiesta did not sell for more. Take care, Mitch. Looking forward to more auction videos.

Another great auction video. Thanks for you and your lady taking the time to do these. You can see from the comments that we all love them.
Thank you for the positive comment, we will continue to attend these auctions for as long as people enjoy them 😁
My old long dead neighbour up the road had a Lotus Cortina in the early 1980s when i was still in junior high school. Always loved the look of them.
Great video and really well edited.
Nice to see cars going though a classic auction that are actually affordable.👍🏻😀
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed the video 👌🏻

Yas love your auction videos…..🏴👍🥶.. 3:22
Glad your enjoying them Dru! Back to Kings Lynn this weekend, no doubt you’ll be watching their live stream 😎
Some good cheap classics there, I wonder if most of the bids were accepted after.
You can always check their website to see if they eventually sold 👍🏻
Fair play for loving fiestas as much as you do I remember them when I was younger 😂
Can’t go wrong with a classic fiesta 😎
Great video, there was some smashing examples there.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏻
Another awesome documentary Mitch
Thank you pal 👍🏻
mk1 bubble arches.15:40.all i saw was the wheel nearly rubbing the back..somethings not right.the mk3 fiesta with 34k miles..meanwhile the seats look like they have done 134k
Agreed when I look back on the video the arches do look out of line with the wheels! 👍🏻
What a lot of people seem to forget about the escorts and stuff and the Rs Turboa is that the mileage only went up to 100,000 or just under and then it restarted again so a lot of these cars have actually been round the clock and when it all went over to digital online MOT‘s there was nothing from the old days so a lot of these cars are well over 100,000 miles

Cheers mate! I’ve got to say I didn’t notice the wheel fitment on the escort until watching the video back! 🤦🏻♂️😆
Thanks Mitch for another great video, I do not think there was anything I did not like, some of the minis went cheap and I would like especially liked the Lotus Cortina, my Dad had a 1950s ford consul with a 3-speed column gear change.
Your welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Some of the minis were sold provisionally but some did still sell 👍🏻 corr column change, cool! 😁
You can see prices are coming down. Month on Month.
I think they vary at different auctions 👍🏻
Rear axle alignment on that Mk1 Bubble arch was horrendous !!
If I’m honest, didn’t notice that!
The BMW 318i S will be a 1.9 16 valve 140 bhp. Unless i'm Wrong.

That l reg bmw was deffo a bit of me .
Why did you not show what you showed in picture on this video? Does so many peoples head in.
All the cars in the thumbnail have featured in the video… Have you watched the full video?
My dad had a brand new RS1600i black
Bet he loved that! 👍🏻

Have classic car prices reached their peak over the last few years and now starting to come down again?
Can’t really answer that mate, I feel hammer prices are still fluctuating! 🤔
I brought a rs1600i in 1997 for £80 wish I had it now
That’s crazy! 👀
❤👍
Hey bro did you not buy one off them minis for your girlfriend if she loves them so much.
Haha no room at home for a mini just yet! We will buy one soon 👀
£800 and you didn't buy the Mk3!!!!
Don’t mate, I was so tempted! 🤣
Hiya totally new to your channel love the content tbh. Was shocked at the mk3 even more shocking that you didn’t buy. Can I ask is this content purely to show what’s going on. Or content of you possibly buying one and the journey??
Think the fees alone would wipe out any point
That mk3 Fez would’ve made a great basis for a cool sleeper car.
Could of made a grand or 2 on that m8

318 is 1.9 16v not 1.8
Thank you for informing me! 👌🏻
a lot of leaks under all them cars
I didn’t notice many?
Thanks for naming the company - so I could look up how much the Morris Minor Million fetched... > 22k, more than I'd have thought...
I’ll always include the name and always put their website in the description of the video 👍🏻
Ford Consul not Consol !
Just a pronunciation pal, did it really matter?
Tomato Potato
sorry but that shud be against the law and the last owners arrested putting a poxhall engine in a classic ford.. if its a ford fit a ford if its a vauxhall then fit a red top
Haha, some very strong opinions here 🤣
Rich mans auctions these days. Prices are ridiculous
You think?
It’s not classic cars, it’s Jurassic cars, fossils of the past
Not sure how to take this comment 😅
That mini countryman was pissin oil
Was it? 🤣
Whoever did the estimates for these cars needs sackin for ruinin people’s expectations, every single car sold for massively under estimate
An immaculate 205 GTi for 15k thought they were worth double???
I thought the estimates were very reasonable but that’s my opinion 👍🏻
You know your old when a Ford Escort from your generation is now called a classic 😂
😬😬😬
Yeah I'd have gone that high for RS1800 too. Sweeeeet
