You need a Frontera. Simples.

Decided that fixing the Megane up during lockdown was going to be difficult from a logistical point of view so I’ve put it in the naughty corner for a bit and retrieved the car that I put there months ago.... this lovely Rover 216 Cabriolet.

.... I left a window open when putting it in the garage 9 months ago, so it’s now growing some lovely COVID-19

Should be much easier to fix this one up though - good clean and the obvious OMGHGF repair that saw it laid up in the first place.

You've graduated to trade plates!

Ha - I’ve had them for a while but a lot of the stuff I’ve been filming so far I’ve been taxing and smoking around in - only use them for the intended purpose because I’m a good boy 😉

Watched the vid before reading this and thought you had fixed it already. These were desirable wee things back in the day. Night fire red?

Daft question, would your trade plates act as a "get out of jail free" card should you be taking a "non-essential" journey.

Difficult one to call. Depends how good your excuse was for the 5-0 I think. Retail sales operations should be closed but other motor trade businesses can continue.

I have been travelling between home and the unit for work, many of the surrounding businesses covering a myriad of industries (a little bit of MT but mostly other stuff, engineering etc) are business as usual it seems.

That’s the one. Lovely colour.

Shame about the interior on this one really, it’s a bit dull. I used to have one that was a dark metallic grey with beige and red fabric seats, was quite striking!

I really crave something different and original from the You Tube car content creators. Hubnut could easily be Furious Driving or I Drive A Classic, similar cars and presentation. Hoovie's Garage was OK to begin with but now has imitators from all over the globe. Regular Car Reviews is always worth a watch because Mr Regular is an intelligent and literate bloke who knows how to narrate in a unique way. The Russian Garage 54 channel is entertaining due to his ability to pull off strange engineering feats with Ladas so I've subscribed to that too.

So basically I don't know what I want to watch but I'll know it when I see it.

WTC will it involve burning invicars and siege weapons?
