That's the aul felter still in you lol405 is getting a lot more love than I thought it would. I must have said "unfortunately not a diesel", which raised a few eyebrows on the YouTube comments!
Could have been worse, I have a 30k mile 306 D turbo stashed away in another shed. I have never driven it because I know as soon as I do, it will be Lowered, 17" Kahns and pump screwed!!!That's the aul felter still in you lol
I agree, but in my opinion much, much, less risky than the thread in here that lads take random photos of people's cars on driveways etc and post it up, sometimes with house numbers etc showing. At least the videos have consent from the owners too.As much as I love seeing the lads car collection ,I also worry about unwanted eyes seeing what is in the garages .You never know what sort of people are looking over car sites .Amazing collection you have ,still the ascona for me every time .
Is he as dead on in real life as he seems on camera? I love how he's so into obscure, odd and everyday stuff. So much better to watch than the rest of them
Was exactly the same with me when I met Jonny and Richard last year- great lads.He was exactly the same off camera as on camera, whether or not that was because he was "working" the whole time I don't know.
@AMG
Did David from Lisnasure have Manta and Ascona 400’s or only the Manta? Noel had an HSR Chevette as I can remember being in it.

Would loved to have seen the Manta on the road - just have to get him back over for part 2!
Yep, its me! Got the link to watch it on Friday and still havent got past 1 minute, cringing listening to myself!
Great video and collection @AMG

The Ascona is just a replica, bought of Brian Murphy, who then bought Sams genuine one.Loved that !! What a collection and even better than I thought
Was the Ascona 400 Sam McMahons before you owned it or did he have one around the same time you got yours?
Unfortunately the genuine i200 you mentioned that the owner won't sell is still rotting away merrily at his front door
you have nothing to worry about , you came across well i thought , plenty of interesting stuff in the shed to talk about, even if your not a full on vaux/opel head theres plenty to be interested in.
I like the idea of the replicas too in the way you have executed them, especially when a 'real' one is approaching value which makes it almost undriveable.
I wish you'd told him that
No worries at all. It was a good watch and it's great to see some locals getting coverageThanks for the good review on the podcast!
I remember buying Toledo seats of you for/with a friend many many years ago and I think you just had a vxr stolen if I remember correctly.
Seeing your collection back then I remember being blown away. Fair play for keeping them all and having them all in such great condition.
