do five grand today the country is uh the UK of course and the region at the moment let's go
to Lincolnshire my homeland see what there is um these are all bits and pieces ah the way that
this is done has changed now right let's have a look then uh that Ford Escort 1.4 Freedom bless it

it's it at a dealer not overly Keen Taylor's a little bit of something
on this sill here isn't there um it's beautiful oh look at this
absolute classic cars now they had a Citroen saxo recently and I was tempted by
that this is nice actually this is very nice lovely gorgeous okay three grand
originally supplied to Jaguar cars Limited VanDam pla all the mod cons everything
in there Lamb's wool over mats wow I I don't understand why this is so cheap what have we got exceptionally
well specked presented well [Music] um mechanically very good used as a wedding car averaged 8 600 miles a year 2115 000 miles that's a lot isn't it that's done a lot of mass
no that can't have done that many miles surely them seats are not 215 000 miles are they I'll go

sale as a buy now doing my appointment what's uh prices are fixed no no thank
you uh no not interested old Mercedes um 35 SE mili 4 500 pounds I say a word uh this
advert has been removed oh okay well it's there um right that's linkage here I'm not overly
keen on anything there apart from this Daimler um which I'm very surprised it's done 215 000
miles I would be very surprised if that's right um unless it's been overhauled or
restored uh I can't see the index um there's an index on here on the right here no
he's got the index covered for I understand the reason why but it just makes it difficult um
merits Jaguar I might uh give this guy a call uh right let's change it to Cambridge
shielding this time 5 000 pounds slipping heck 390 pounds a row
for 75 V6 connoisseur SE automatic um okay strong money that strong money
if I'm honest with you it better be good um and it is looking good in this sort of lovely
is it flame red not flame red it's a lovely red but I'm seeing some marks on the seats here
uh this is damaged the driver's bolster uh I'm gonna go for 90 000 miles it's not it's not a
foreground car I'm really sorry it's not I'm out um Daimler project no thank you 23 grand these
are getting Bonkers money at the moment a Audi TT this is my one to buy um I'm not just saying
that because I've got one these are becoming short after in a good spec and in good condition
with low miles what's the mileage on this um if it's going to be it's got to be something
like 60 000 miles I would hope 129 miles I'm guessing that's 129 000.
Um no too much too much
money sorry for any classic cars a nice part of the world though thorny um my neck of the woods
what else have we got uh no not interested in any of that oh a maestro look at that three grand

escaped in March okay salt okay fair enough um Toyota MR2 it's not it's not standard um
I don't know what's going on here uh we've got 50 shades of red here so this Wing doesn't
match this door all this uh panel here I would suggest knowing Toyota r2s like I know Toyota
r2's it's had a new Wing as they go rotten um stupid wheels absolutely stupid uh things that
also aren't right should have some pinstriping and rumble strips down the side which tells me that
it's been painted um terrible not for me no thank you what was that in the back there I thought
