There is something about a base-model Mk3 Escort that instantly transports people back. No spoilers, no XR badges, no alloy wheels… just an honest everyday Ford exactly as thousands of families would have known them in the early 1980s. Except this one quietly disappeared from the roads before many modern classics were even built. Off [&...
There’s no shortage of London to Brighton runs in the UK, but this one has quietly carved out a very nice niche. Taking place on Sunday 31st May 2026, these runs start from Brooklands Museum — the birthplace of British motorsport — and finish on Brighton’s famous Madeira Drive. It’s a proper day out, not [&...
A proper spot at Anglia Car Auctions I popped into Anglia Car Auctions to drop a few bits off and, as always, had a quick wander. This 1975 Hillman Hunter GL immediately stood out. It’s heading into their June sale, and while it might not be the loudest car in the room, it’s exactly ...

The 1991 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4×4 isn’t just another fast Ford — it’s one of those cars that quietly commands respect, and at Anglia Car Auctions, this particular example proved exactly why. A Proper One-Owner Cosworth Finished in Diamond White with Raven interior, this Sapphire […]
This Triumph Dolomite 1500HL project car is exactly the sort of thing you don’t see often now – a proper used classic that’s still running and hasn’t been left to rot away. It’s always a good sign when a seller says they’ve used a car daily. That usually means one thing – ...
We’ve picked up some interesting bits over the years, and this is exactly the sort of thing that turns up when you’re clearing out old garages and workshops. A British Leyland dealer sign – and not a small one either. This is a large acrylic light box front, over 3ft square, the sort of ...
Every now and then, it’s not the car that steals the show — it’s what’s left inside it. This Big D de-icer aerosol was found tucked away in a car that was last taxed in 1979. That alone gives you a clue, but the real talking point is right there on the tin. A ...
