  • Whilst staying at Poolsbrook Country Park CAMC Site we took a daytrip with the van to the Great British Car Journey which is an amazing private British classic car collection not far from the campsite in Derbyshire.

    Love looking at the old cars most of which, (certainly from the 60’s onwards) I remember - when cars had some ‘character’ 🥴 and all looked different. I let go my 1958 Iris Blue Austin Healey Sprite MK1 (Frogeye) about three years ago, noddy! Didn’t get enough use out of it, so time to let her go and be enjoyed at her new home. Thanks for taking us around the museum x🚐

      Loved the old frog eyed Sprite. Must have been an emotional decision to let it go. It was a lovely day out here and a nice cafe for tea and cake after looking round 😃 Trev

    Hello Trev and Sue, love the car journey, lots of memories came flooding back, you got me getting a pen and paper out and trying to remember the cars I have had in the past, 👍👍.

      A lot of the cars were buzzing around in my childhood. It was a real trip down memory lane. I loved it and wasn’t sure whether to put it in here as it’s not really camping related. 😊 Safe travels 👍🏻 Trev

      It was a bigger car collection than we first thought. It was great to see the old cars of our lifetime. Seems strange to think that some of them are now in a museum 🤣 Thanks for watching 😃 Trev

    Thanks for sharing this. Great to see so many cars that I’ve owned or driven over the years and not a German, French or Swedish car to be seen (which is all I’ve owned since 2006). Didn’t know about this place before your video and living in Spain now probably won’t get to see it for real. Thanks again 👍

    Trevor what did you do in the electricity industry. I worked for Eastern electricity and EDF energy and UKPN for 40 years as a hot glove engineer in King's Lynn and Peterborough. Keep the videos coming

      Hi Paul, from 1985 I was in Contracting then went into Energy Marketing and finally IT Department working with the Energy Trading teams at HQ. I left in 2000 after the millennium bug projects finished and joined a software company delivering solutions to international energy companies. It was a good career but following illness in 2007, I took a local management roll in the NHS then Social Services. I retired at 58 in 2019. I haven’t looked back and love travelling with our motorhome. Long May it continue 😃👍🏻🚐 Thanks for your support with our channel, it helps us with a tank of fuel every month. 😃 Take care, Trev

    Well, I obviously watched there were a few mistakes that the place themselves made which annoy me…. Example the “Allegro” Vanden Plas for example was never badged Allegro and was just a VDP 1500 or 1750 I’ve not been even though it’s local… I believe there is another Allegro there (a green one) I really must go there.

    • @PoshcatsCamping
      @PoshcatsCamping  Год назад +1

      I think you’d like it Rick. It has a great selection of vehicles but I was looking for the Austin Cambridge and Cortina Mk1 or Corsair and sadly I was disappointed 🙂 Despite there being a few gaps and errors, it’s a good place to look around. Loads of minis there if you like them 😊 Thanks for watching 👍🏻 Trev

    Hi Trev and Sue. Brilliant video.. Having passed mz driving test in 1968 it brought back many happy memories of that time. However it wasn't all good. I bought my first car in 1969, which was a 6 year old Sunbeam Alpine, and spent most of my time either patching up bodywork or constantly returning the engine etc. I sold it in 1972 for a £100 and still regret it to this day!

    • @PoshcatsCamping
      @PoshcatsCamping  Год назад

      Haha yes we seem to love the older cars even though they gave us problems in the 1970s. I passed my test in 1979 and that’s when I got the Hillman Avenger. Glad you enjoyed the video David, it was a nice armchair walk down memory lane 😃 Trev
