    This girl is shitting all over those other car youtubers. I end up skipping through most of the other's videos because it's mostly utter drivel. This was just excellent. A true petrolhead.

    Becky - I'm probably around your Dad's age so this video, the car and the contents of the glove compartment take me way back...we had a Rootes garage close by and I remember seeing these cars in the showroom. Great that you are so close to your Dad and share his love of cars. What a wonderful video - watching this made my day - you (and your Dad) are a natural on camera !

      Thank you! I love reading comments like this. Glad that I can speak to the older audience, my dad is a real inspiration to me and one of the major reasons I do what I do. I have listened to all his stories as I was growing up about the cars he has had and raced. Thank you for your kind words, I will show daddio your message :) x

      Hi QB Just discovered your channel. This is such a great video. Love the way Dad takes the mick out of you on camera he is obviously very proud :) The F-Pace video is good too and will be even better as you experience more cars and have more in the memory bank to compare and be more objective. Hope the YT cash gets you your dream car !

  • @animal355
    @animal355 7 лет назад +3

    You're great inspiration for others that love cars, but possibly, feel intimidated by the other car vlogger-youtubers with their posh accents and 200k supercars...pave the way for more realistic content, that 95% of us can relate to, I started a Facebook page simply to fill that void. I'm gaining the confidence to reconsider a youtube channel, but like you Becky I have a full time job and family, so consistency with uploads could be a subscription issue with a possible fan base, but if they 'get' you and understand your passion, those fans will be coming back for more of that 'real' motoring passion. Just put the order for the McLaren 570s on hold for a while. Us car nuts in our 10 year old Golf Gti's want a look in. And I love your e21 Bimmer, that is cool...

    • @animal355
      @animal355 7 лет назад +2

      Continued...And to add to my original comment, this was such an engaging video, it was interesting hearing about your dad's history and how its shaped your passion for cars...we need more of this type of stuff, not 'Supercar shopping' tales, its ok if you're 12 and think that Ferraris and Lambos make good daily runners, well they don't...and after a while, the 200k supercar vloggers just alienate the car scene... Its not about the money you spend, its the passion that these pieces of metal stir within us. I have a new vlogger to gain my inspiration from... Keep up the great work Queen B...looking forward to your next video.

  • @shovington67

    At first, you said the name of the car quickly, and it sounded like one word. I took a frame grab of the back of the car and saw SINGER. I did a little research on Singer Motors Limited and went back to the video and discerned that you weren't saying a new french word that I hadnt heard, but in fact you were saying Singer Vogue. I dont believe that Singer Motors Ltd ever sold vehicles in Canada (although im sure there are a couple), but after looking at some images I thought the Singer Chamois Coupe would make an interesting custom car. It has a very nice fastback and good room for a cage, perhaps trim and tub the wheel wells a bit. My father is British, so we did have a few British cars growing up like a late 60s Rover 2000, and a mid 70s Ford Capri with the V6 , round headlights and the cool map reading light mounted to the inside A pillar. The Capri was fondly known as the donut machine by us kids and our friends, as during the winters dad would take us out in the good handling Capri and us the giant suburban mall parking lots to slide around in the ice and snow (I had the cool Dad), and during the rest of the year we'd head up north of our area onto country roads for some spirited driving. Unfortunately, that car was sold for more boring North American transportation when I became of age to drive in the mid 80s. The country was to full of big boxy domestic fair, with heavy but low powered V8s, which were very survivable in moderate speed crashes but very unappealing to the eye. I still think my favorite of my fathers cars was his second childhood Honda Accord 2 door Coupe 4th Generation (1991). He did some nice modifications to the cars suspension and had aftermarket bbs cross spoked rims with low profile tires. The car was slightly lowered and handled very nicely. The engine was a 2.0 litre, and I always bugged him to get a turbo for the car since the Honda's are built fairly stout, but honestly it moved out quite well. Its best asset was that models visibility, and the feeling that you were in a big go-cart. There were no blind spots and very minimal pillars to get in the way, and the whole package made it a very easy and relaxed driving experience. Dad bought another Accord Coupe years later. I gravitated to the Toyota trucks myself, lots of off road fun and exploring in Canada, and otherwise good on gas the rest of the time. I like the unstoppable little trucks for our snowy winters, not to mention that the smaller width fits down some pretty small trails if you want to get lost and find a Sasquatch off the beaten path.

    Wow !! A Singer Vogue !!!
    My dad had a (super-rare) '69/'70 Hillman GT.
    Only made for a year then became the Hillman Hunter GT, as it got a few more luxuries on top of the original Minx-spec GT.
