RICHARD: This time... Go on then.

00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,760
..we race to get an old friend
ready for a big show...
3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,040
No one ever sees
the bad side of Oliver.
4
00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:15,480
What they see is cuddly Oliver.
I can't believe
5
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,080
you never read the small print!
6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,320
..a long running job
hits more setbacks...
7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,640
I think I've found a crack.
It's costing you to do this job.
8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,920
Well, it's terrifying.
9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,440
..and it's the moment of truth
for Anthony,
10
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,600
as he attempts to become
a proper racing driver.
11
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,960
He'll get a licence
if he earns a licence.
12
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:33,040
About to get real.
13
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,480
Not setting the world on fire yet
but he's going, I'll give him that.
14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,080
Fire them up! Let's go!
15
00:00:41,160 --> 00:00:43,680
I've fulfilled a lifelong dream.
16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,840
Is this all yours? It's all ours.
17
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,600
I've set up a classic car
restoration business
18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,280
with automotive wonder family,
19
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,160
Neil, Anthony, and Andrew Greenhouse.
20
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,840
(GASPS) Dad!
21
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,000
But it's become a money pit...
22
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,800
Bad, bad, bad.
..and if we don't break even soon...
23
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,480
Ten? But the budget's ten!
24
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,800
..there's a chance we go bust.
It's not going well at all.
25
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,920
So, I've come up
with ambitious new plans.
26
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,400
Welcome to your club.
27
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,680
We've just got to push forward
into the big league. (HONKS)
28
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,040
We're even going racing
to find cars that need our help.
29
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,800
Now wouldn't be the time
to give him a business card.
30
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,600
I'm determined to turn
my lifelong obsession...
31
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,280
Come on, little car!
..into a thriving business.
32
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,800
Will it turn over? No.
33
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,400
Is this a good idea?
34
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,520
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
35
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,480
I've learnt something.
36
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,080
It's good to be able
to show off our work,
37
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,560
to show off what we can do
in the workshop.
38
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,520
But when we finish the car,
it goes back to the owner
39
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,560
and we haven't got anything,
so we need a show car.
40
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,240
And I've had an idea.
41
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,000
I don't want anything fancy
cos it'll take too long...
42
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,720
and it's gotta be something
that we can quickly and cheaply
43
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,440
(GRUNTS) turn into a wonderful thing,
and here it is.
44
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,520
You see, that is Oliver. (GRUNTS)
45
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,760
He's not going
to cost a fortune to do.
46
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,400
Yeah, he's a bit dusty.
47
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,720
I haven't used him since we did the
opening of the workshop, actually,
48
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,160
and some of this...
49
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,200
I mean, there are issues,
but it's not a big restoration job.
50
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,880
We can make improvements
fairly inexpensively.
51
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,320
Oh, that is quite dusty.
I... Yeah, don't need that.
52
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,120
Yes, I'm pleased to see you.
53
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:38,360
See?
54
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,840
My 1963 Opel Kadett, Oliver,
55
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:45,480
once got me
right across the spine of Africa
56
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,600
on a certain well known TV show.
57
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:53,440
I'm hoping his fame should convince
the lads that this is a good idea.
58
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,120
I've got an old Jaguar XK120 in bits,
which we could make magnificent,
59
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,120
but it would cost about 150 grand's
worth of workshop hours.
60
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,080
This, I've already got, and as soon
as somebody sees it at the show,
61
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320
They'll go, "Wait a minute, is that
that little yellow car Hammond...
62
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,080
"hang on, it is."
63
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,000
As a show car, I want Oliver
to be as original as possible
64
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,600
and at the moment,
he's the wrong colour.
65
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,000
Structurally, it's sound.
66
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,480
We can just put a proper finish on it
fairly quickly and...
67
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,760
Well, it will draw attention,
won't it?
68
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,440
No, no. Come on, Oliver.
69
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,800
I think we've...
70
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,320
Oh, we are dying.
71
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,320
Oh, dear. But look, look, look, look.
72
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,640
That... See, that's Oliver all over.
73
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,560
Oh, no, we've broken down,
but look where we've done it.
74
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,360
(LAUGHS) I'll sneak him
on the end of this line of cars
75
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,240
and he can pretend he's for sale.

00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,840
This is slightly awkward.
79

I've broken down on the way in
to persuade them that it's a good...
80

Yeah, it's ironic, isn't it?

You see, that's character
and personality for you.

Hello?

Right, I'll grab some kit,
I'll come and have a INDISTINCT.

OK. I'll be there in a minute.
Hold on.

It's the perfect car!
88
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,080
Just needs a lick of paint
and it's good to go.
89

What are we doing today?
Oh, rescuing Richard.
90
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,840
He'll be on the side of the
road with a crowd round him.

can I have your autograph?"

Yeah, Oliver.

Honestly, come and have a look.
100

I looked inside there
and they're, all of it, corroded
101

a strong spark. No. He doesn't.

INDISTINCT was it?
No, I've had an idea.
105
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,200
We need a car to show people what
we can do, a car that gets attention.
106

The thing is,
he's a lovely little car,
107

but it's the wrong colour.
No, you're absolutely right.
108
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,200
It's not the colour
when I drove him across Africa.
109
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:37,920
He was a more custardy
sort of a yellow than this,
110
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,920
which is a bit too lemony.
Yeah, yeah.
111
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,320
You could quickly paint this.
112
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,480

to start now? I don't know.

Make it the colour
when I drove it in Africa,

which was a more custardy yellow,
but we can find out.

It's basically straight.
136
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,640
Steel wheels with hubcaps
would make it look more proper,
137
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,920
and the interior is not that bad.
138
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,440
There's no rips in those seats.

they'll clean up. It needs a clean.

No.

to get their hands on that...

something behind what he does.

169
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,400
We've got the car.
170
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,760
The type of racing we're going to do,
you usually have two drivers.
171
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,160
One is a pro driver,
and I've already sorted that.
172
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,160
She's somebody I've worked
with before.
173
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,720
You might recognise her.
174
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,360
The other is usually somebody from
the team itself, usually a mechanic,
175
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,040
cos their job is to go out first
in the car, on the day,
176
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,000
do the first laps, shake it down,
make sure it's working,
177
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,440
and put it in a good position
to hand over to the pro driver.
178
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,560
It's a huge responsibility
and of our guys the other day,
179
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:12,200
when we were racing at the go-kart
track, Anthony showed some promise.
180
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,320
Today is all about seeing
if that promise works out
181
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,000
on a proper racetrack
in a proper race car.
182
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,320
And he gets to meet
our proper race driver.
183
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,400
I'm gonna go and get him.
184
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,000
I hope he's ready.
185
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,080
(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING)
186
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,600
I haven't asked you this,
probably should have done,
187
00:09:34,680 --> 00:09:37,480
have you driven on
an actual track before, not...
188
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:39,720
as opposed to go-karts? No.
189
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,240
I've been to a track to watch
motorsport, but never...
190
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,120
Actually, physically,
been on a proper track.
191
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,800
But I am aware that quite a lot
of it then sits on your shoulders...
192
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,200
Yeah, I'm feeling it.
193
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,280
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
194
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,240
This is like a little boy's dream.
Yeah, it's all here, mate.
195
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,920
We have a racetrack, we have a car,
and we have a racing driver.
196
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,560
Abbie, hello! Hello.
197
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,320
Thank you for doing this.
Would you meet Anthony?
198
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,840
The pupil?
Anthony, she is a racing driver.
199
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,360
Yeah, nice to meet you.
Make him one.
200
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,160
If I was to look for, like,
the perfect racing driver,
201
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,680
it would be someone who's fearless,
got finesse,
202
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,840
really can listen
and feel the race car,
203
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,160
and someone that's super,
super physically fit.
204
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,600
I'm actually going to be out there
205
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:32,080
with a professional racing driver
in a proper car.
206
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,080
I'm not going to lie.
It's setting in a bit.
207
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,520
There he goes.
208
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,720
When it goes green, don't floor it,
just going to ease it on.
209
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,760
So, up a gear
and looking well ahead,
210
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,120
looking for that red arrow,
211
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,120
braking in a straight line
to the red.
212
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,720
Off the brakes, over to the apex,
looking well ahead
213
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,680
to what's coming up next.
Good. He's still the right way up.
214
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,200
Helping him with the braking points,
telling him when to get on the power.
215
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,560
Just start squeezing in
a bit more power now.
216
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,200
Keep going, a little bit more.
Bit more, bit more.
217
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,680
Confidence.
218
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,760
Usually, what happens is, you build
confidence and then, you crash.
219
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,120
A bit faster now, down into here,
220
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,200
looking well ahead
for that red arrow.
221
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,640
On the brakes now.
222
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,400
Good, that's it, keep on the brakes,
keep... More brake, more, more. Off.
223
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,160
A couple of the other cars have gone
through, but that's his first lap.
224
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,800
If Ant is going to race for the Cog,
he'll need a racing licence
225
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,040
and for that,
he'll need to up his game.
226
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,880
Well, you didn't scream. No.
227
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,800
I can't scream cos if I scream,
228
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,800
Richard will take
the mick out of me.
229
00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:51,520
See where I'm going wrong.
230
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,880
OK. Two lines here.
So, this is your speed.
231
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,480
You're actually slightly better,
speed wise,
232
00:11:56,560 --> 00:11:58,360
on your lap towards the end.
233
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,240
The way you started was 150
234
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,600
and you've now done a 137.3.
235
00:12:02,680 --> 00:12:05,400
Your theoretical, here, which is,
basically, if you strung together
236
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:06,920
every single corner perfectly,
237
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,440
you would have found another
nearly four-tenths of a second.
238
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,840
So, the computer is saying,
I am capable of that. Yeah, yeah.
239
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:13,960
Let's try that, then.
240
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,440
You can see where I'm losing time,
so now,
241
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,000
if I can get anywhere
near 136 point...
242
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,320
I think it's nine,
I'll be very, very happy.
243
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,240

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)
245
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,080
So, over to the red.
Brake earlier than you think.
246
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,920
Turn. Get it straight and go hard.
247
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,440
Up a gear. Up a gear.
Up a gear, looking for the red.
248
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,920
Brake now. Nice.
249
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,800
Good news or bad news?
250
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,560
You did a 132... Two?
251
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,280
..point 98. Oh!
So, you just snuck into the 32s.
252
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,200
Get in there! I'm happy with that.
That's absolutely wicked, mate.
253
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,800
You smashed his time. Thank you.
You've been absolutely brilliant.
254
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,880
When Ant turned up this morning,
255
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,080
"How are we going to make
a racing driver out of this guy?"
256
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,560
but actually, he's improved
so much through the day.
257
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,160
I think Richard's picked a good'un.
258
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,360
There's a lot to come yet.
We will get some more training in.
259
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,440
To get you through your race licence.
260
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,280
Oh, yeah, forgot about... And the
first race will be on the horizon.
261
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,960
Big day for the Cog that, won't it?
262

00:13:30.120 -- 00:13:33.840 align:middle line:90% position:50%
Ant is showing potential
as a proper racing driver,
263
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,560
but I can't afford to have him
give up the day job just yet.
264
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,000
Especially when that job is trying
to finish our biggest project,
265
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,720
the restoration of a 1952 Alvis.
266
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,840
Taken the head off the Alvis engine
267
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,120
and do a leak test, fill the chamber
up and see if the fluid stays there.
268
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,360
If it doesn't, we've got an issue.
269
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,040
This is just a waiting game,
now, to see if the levels change.
270
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,560
Oh, hang on.
271
00:13:58,640 --> 00:13:59,880
What's that?
272
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,360
Oh, that ain't good.
I think I've actually found a crack.
273
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,840
Ooh, we didn't want
to be seeing that.
274
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:12,400
We've already agreed to restore
the Alvis at a fixed price,
275
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,040
for a loyal customer of Neil's,
276
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,400
but a new cylinder head
wasn't part of the deal.
277
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,120
Right. So, I'm on my way to Richard.
278
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Very worrying on the Alvis.
279
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,600
Anthony's not aware
of the number of hours Neil's done,
280
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,840
Neil's not aware of the number
of hours Anthony's.
281
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,600
I don't think
282
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,000
that they understand the impact
this has on the cash flow.
283
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,640
Kamla, hello.
Is it all right if I come in?
284
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,360
Yeah, come in.
You've finished, yeah?
285
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,440
So, I don't know if you know,
286
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,520
myself and Mindy dropped in
287
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,520
at the workshop
a couple of weeks ago?
288
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,320
I did hear words to that effect.
289
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,560
I asked them for an update
on the Alvis.
290
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,400
Hours are still way over
what we had estimated. Yeah.
291
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,480
But, sorry, can I just add to that?
292
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,920
The job's not finished. No.
293
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,200
So, all the overspend on this,
the company, now, has to mop up.
294
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,120
It's actually costing you
to do this job. Right.
295
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,200
It's actually quite bad. Mm.
296
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,960
In the meantime,
I've had another idea. Yep.
297
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,920
A quicker way of drumming up
the business.
298
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,960
Show people what we've done. Yeah.
299
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,880
Cos otherwise, they don't know.
300
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,080
So, we need a show car. Right.
301
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,560
To take to shows to show people
Yeah, good idea.
302
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,000
and I've got the perfect car. Go on.
303

How much is that going to cost?
304
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,720
We're not going
to charge ourselves, are we?
305
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,640
I mean, it's not a customer job.
306
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,040
And it's still work taken away
from billable jobs.
307
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,800
I get him done as quickly as I can,
I will look for an event
308
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,520
to take him to
and see if we can get work.
309
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,000
I'm on board with you on that,
Richard. I agree.
310
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,120
We need to get our name out there.
311
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,080
But in the meantime, you have
to understand that all the time
312
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,640
we're pulling the lads away
from payable jobs,
313
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,000
you're funding the company.
314
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,040
You're paying for the running
of the business.
315
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,880
It's terrifying. OK, will do.

(SLOW MUSIC PLAYING)
317
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,200
Well, that wasn't as bad as some
of the meetings we've had,
318
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,600
but there is no doubt that now,
I am still supporting the company
319
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,000
out of my own pocket.
320
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,720
That's just a fact.
321
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,880
We'll get there.

You can probably tell we've had
a bit of a tidy up
324
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,360
cos we've got a customer coming in.
Michael, the owner of Alvis
325
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:26,640
that's still in the building,
326
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,880
he needs to know about the problem
we found with the cylinder head
327
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,840
because we do have an issue
with the money on his car.
328
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,240
We quoted him 15 with a discount.
329

We've already spent that.

They're not just working
because you're coming in,

they have been working
on it genuinely.

00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,520
Honestly, they have.
That's very impressive.
333
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,240
The engine. Oof! Anthony's clutches.
334
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,440
The crack goes into the valve seat.
It's split.
335
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,240
And that one there,
is starting to go as well.
336
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:59,000
So, obviously, there are various
options from this point.
337
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,000
One, investigate
getting this one repaired...
338
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,600
Cos the problem is,
if you get it stitch welded,
339
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,120
you've got to get it machined,
340
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,840
so, it's more cost in machining
then to get it there...
341
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,600
And then, seat the valves back in.
342
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,600
The other option is 800 quid
for a replacement head
343
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,800
and the third option,
and it's your call,
344
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,600
it's got to be at your risk...
345
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,360
It would have to your risk.
346
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,040
..that's a potential problem...
Not when we're doing all this.
347
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:27,360
I think the answer,
we'll put a new head on it.
348
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,840
The one thing we didn't agree
with you, so it's our own fault,
349
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,520
is to see if there's any possibility
of staged payments.
350
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,720
Yeah, yeah, we can...
Because, I mean, we've done...
351
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,080
Quite a lot of work, you know?
352
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,640
It's great to see progress
on the Alvis
353
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,640
and, as always, it ends up being
a rather more expensive exercise
354
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,640
than one had perhaps
originally hoped.
355
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,320
So, we've got to justify what we're
saying things are going to cost
356
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,000
but it's perfectly reasonable
of a business this size to say,
357
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,680
"OK, the bill is likely
to be 50 grand,
358
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,640
but can we have some of that
to get us going, please,
359
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,080
cos otherwise, we'll go broke."
360
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,440
Anthony has got to go up
to Silverstone for his driving test,
361
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,000
his, sort of, race license thing,
362
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,520
and I got no doubt,
he is a good driver,
363
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,520
there's no two ways about that,
but he's not academic.
364
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,280
I think he's scared
that he's going to blow it
365
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:25,440
because of his paperwork test.
366
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,520
A bit of a panic mode
when a test comes up.
367
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,280
As I think I'll be
able to do the driving part,
368
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:34,720
when it comes to the theory, if you
fail, then you've failed your test.
369
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,400
This could be quite embarrassing,
370
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,360
as Richard has put a lot of trust
in me to go and actually do this.
371
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,120
I've been trying to help him
and I know he is a bright lad.
372
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,840
He's my son, I know.
373
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,280
I've watched him strip
V6 Mercedes engines to bits,
374
00:18:49,360 --> 00:18:50,480
all over the floor...
375
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,440
No photographs, no phone,
and just rebuilt it all, perfect
376
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,160
and if you give him a car,
he can drive it.
377
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,760
When he was a kid,
used to take him go-karting,
378
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,520
and he would go with people
who were really experienced
379
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,840
and "This is my son,
he's the best driver."
380
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,760
"He's brilliant," "Yeah, he's
an ex so-and-so, so-and-so"
381
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,640
and Anthony never used
to say anything...
382
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,960
and he would beat them all.
383
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,560
You'd be listening, then,
the excuses.
384
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,480
"Oh, you're just having a bad day"
and all this lot
385
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,200
and I thought, "No, you ain't,
you just met him." (LAUGHS)
386
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,800
(SLOW MUSIC PLAYING)
387
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,920
Here we are, heading to Silverstone,
home of British racing.
388
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,880
British racing, indeed.
How are you feeling, then?
389
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,680
Nervous. The last time I done
a test was 18 years ago.
390
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,640
Don't let it play on your mind
391
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,040
that you've got the whole future
of the business in your hands.
392
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:45,640
Hello, boys!
393
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,920
-You must be Ant. Steve.
-That's right, yeah.
394
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,160
You must be Dad. Hello.
Pleased to meet you.
395
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,480
Welcome
to Silverstone's race control.
396
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,240
Nice and cool up here, ain't it?
397
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,120
For now. I think,
you're going to be sweating...
398
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,080
Yeah, I can imagine why, as well.
399
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,960
There we go. Take a seat.
400
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,400
First thing you need to do,
the exam.
401
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,400
Right, cos it is actually
really critical,
402
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,400
particularly with respect
to things like the flags.
403
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,480
So, in the first section, you can't
afford to even get one wrong.
404
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,200
15 minutes. 15 minutes.
405
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,520
15 minutes, and I'll be back.
Perfect.
406
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,800
There's no room for error
in this business.
407
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,920
If people fail the exam,
408
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,400
absolutely and unequivocally,
409
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,320
they're going to fail
the whole thing.
410
00:20:31,360 --> 00:20:36,880
The last time I did a written test
would have been 17 years ago.
411
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,520
It's quite hard because
412
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,920
I can't remember half of the stuff
I've read.
413
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,880
For a novice coming into the sport,
414
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,960
it's technical,
like getting a flying licence.
415
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,560
You have to get 100%
for the first 18 questions.
416
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,680
And that's it. I've done the best
I can, but we'll see.
417
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,640
Too nervous to give it to him,
just in case its wrong.
418
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,280
Don't smell too fresh in here.
No, but I've done my best.
419
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:07,600
Do you want to hand it to me? No.
420
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,720
Well, I know you don't want to.
421
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,800
Let's have a look at this. Oh.
422
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,760
Well, he's got the front page right,
he knows his own name.
423
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,200
Scared and worried.
424
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,200
Like waiting for your child
to be born
425
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,960
when your missus
goes into labour, innit?
426
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,120
He ain't going to pass me
just because of what I'm doing.
427
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,400
I think, if, if anything,
more strict on me for...
428
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:29,880
..who I work for.
429
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,240
You, my boy...
430
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:35,240
..can relax.
431
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,040
You did your homework.
Ah, thank you!
432
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,280
I've done my homework.
You did your homework, amazingly.
433
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:41,880
Pity you didn't do that
when you were at school.
434
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,480
I wouldn't be here, would I?
435
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,560
I've actually passed something
in my life.
436
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,280
You come here. Yeah.
437
00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:53,120
It's my track but I'm going
to share it with you.
438
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,040
Probably the hardest circuit
in the world,
439
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:56,120
so there's your challenge.
440
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,400
Don't have to be on lap record pace,
441
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,880
but I need to see
you get the job done
442
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,160
without being a danger
to yourself or other people.
443
00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:11,400
If you spin,
if you look like a liability,
444
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,920
if you cannot take instruction,
you will fail.
445
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,920
This thing is not a game.
446
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,440
It's a serious business.
447
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,360
He'll get a licence
if he earns a licence.
448
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,320
Be under no illusions about that.
449
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:29,520
Pretty good in a go-kart,
I'll give him that,
450
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,080
but this ain't exactly
a go-kart circuit, is it?
451
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,640
Silverstone, about to get real.
452
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,760
OK. Do you want to show me
what you've got?
453
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,320
I'll show you what first
and second gears got. (LAUGHTER)
454
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:45,960
Go on, Anthony!
455
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,200
Now, he's gotta let his driving
do the talking.
456
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:49,640
So, first of all,
457
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,600
look ahead as far as you can,
that's going to help you.
458
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,360
Into the inside,
that's nice, really smooth.
459
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,320
There he is!
460
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,200
Not setting the world on fire yet,
but he's going, I'll give him that.
461
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,000
So, let's put it all together
cos I need to shut up now.
462
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,560
You need to manage this yourself.
463
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,120
Sweaty palms, eh?
It isn't just a jolly for Anthony.
464
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,960
There's a lot depending on this.
465
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,240
Nice.
466
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,200
Good. Pace is good.
467
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,720
Here he goes.
468
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,760
Go on, boy! Give it to 'em!
469
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,680
That was quicker.
470
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,360
That was definitely quicker.
471
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,400
That's your best work so far.
472
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,160
I don't want
to overbuild your confidence,
473
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,000
but you are nice and smooth.
474
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,080
Woo!
475
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,800
If he can pass today
476
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,240
or, set him on the road to winning
a few trophies, it'd be good.
477
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,200
Good for business, good for the Cog,
good for all of us.
478
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,520
Silverstone. I enjoyed that.
479
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,400
That was actually quite cool.
480
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,120
OK, let's run through it.
481
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,240
"Demonstrates adequate forward
and peripheral vision." Yes.
482
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,760
"Awareness and consideration
for other vehicles,"
483
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,760
we were the only ones, not an issue.
484
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,240
I don't think Steve Deeks
will be taking any prisoners.
485
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,920
He would just tell him, if he don't
think he can drive, he'll tell him.
486
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,640
'Transition',
'brake into cornering',
487
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,440
actually, for a novice, very good.
488
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,000
I'll give you an 'A' for that.
489
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,080
So, here's the key part,
pass or fail?
490
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,600
Welcome to the world
of being a racing driver.
491
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:20,680
Thank you.
492
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,760
A massive miracle in my life.
493
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,280
I've actually passed...
494
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:27,160
one, a theory test,
and two, my actual driving test
495
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,680
to get my novice race licence.
496
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,640
I'm actually chuffed to bits.

mate. Cogs are going racing.

I knew you could do it. Come on.
Bring it in.

Bring it in! Well done.

The next thing to tick off
is actually a race.

I'm actually like against people.

Plan, today, is get
this all stripped out
505
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,280
and, if possible,
clean the roof lining and the seats.

Ah, brilliant.
Get in the car when I'm under it.

Great idea.
509
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,040
It's kind of apt that I finally die
under Oliver's wheels.

That's it, that's it, that's it.
There we go.

painted and show ready

to get away from the Bentleys,

forward and just 'umph'. Oh!

I'm quite willing to admit it.

to work...

we've got to take it to.

back because it's this weekend.

will shine.

If we're gonna stand a chance
of getting Oliver painted
557
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,720
and ready for the show, I need
to get Neil fixed, and soon.
558

Right.

At the moment, it's about,
you know, negligible, 20.

and it goes to 150,

it's on a "let's collapse
on the floor", so, it's not good.

that he'll do that. Thank you.

Let's just do it. Let's go.

day tomorrow to get it to that show.

event for this car, it's on Saturday.

with a deadline with two days

back in today and can.

to cope with, won't we?

but I was under strict instructions
not to go too mad.
588

So, I can do, probably,
I don't want to get inside that car,
589
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,440
again, but I can manage the outside
bit, so I'm just gonna
590
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,560
go steady and just keep going.

No, I don't want to break myself.
..we're stuffed.

If Neil overdoes it,
595

it doesn't matter how good
all of this is, we can't paint it.

are lower, I'm sure.

662
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,400
Listen. This is between us.
You come along.
663
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,680
We will find somewhere to put Oliver
so everybody can enjoy catching up
664
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,240
with Oliver, catching up with you.
665
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,600
Right, Thank you. Bye.
Thanks for your help.
666
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,760
There'll be a moment to tell them.
667
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,360
It's not this moment.
668
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:26,680
Got Oliver running...
669
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,440
..but Oliver don't seem very happy.
670
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,160
Right, turn it off!
671
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,920
Right... And again, go on.
672
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,760
Oh, my god.
673
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,240
They're gross. So, you're going
off to your second job?
674
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:41,840
I'll just work behind the bar.
675
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,120
No one cares
when you're pouring a pint.
676
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:45,600
All right, well done.
677
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,240
We couldn't have got that done,
and that.
678
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,440
Go on, then.
679
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:52,520
Much better!
680
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,160
Oh. And again.
681
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,800
The more time we spend solving
the mechanical problems,
682
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,200
the less time we are left
to paint it.
683
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,920
That feeling
when you want to sit in the corner
684
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,480
and just have...(CRIES).
Getting close to that.
685
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,960
The car has to turn up
under its own steam.
686
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,920
It can look pretty,
but if it doesn't work,
687
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,680
we can't go.
688
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:18,040
Right. Try it there.
689
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,960
What was it? I reckon it's moisture
in the distributor.
690
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,200
Reason might just be that the
universe is a pain in the arse.
691
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,320
Let's just get it there and show
the world how wonderful we are.
692
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,760
By scanning
the original paint colour,
693
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,840
Neil can reproduce it exactly,
694
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,280
to put Oliver back
to how he should be.
695
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,800
You wouldn't think all these colours
would go to make that colour?
696
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:51,000
Because Neil is temporarily
incapacitated by his agonising back,
697
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,840
he cannot get in the car...
698
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,480
..and paint it.
699
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,720
So, that means I'm going
to have to paint the inside.
700
00:35:02,240 --> 00:35:03,920
I hope I don't balls this up.
701
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,240
I know it would be funny,
but it's Oliver.
702
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:07,760
I don't, I don't want to.
703
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,080
You won't balls it up.
704
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,040
Ah! I can't...
Do you want me to zip you up?
705
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,120
Yes. This is unpleasant.
706
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,360
Now, if you get in the middle...
I'm in.
707
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,520
I've got an itchy nose, obviously.
708
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,320
Perfect, that's it.
It's quite fiddly in here.
709
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:29,200
I'm trying to conduct an operation
in a collapsing Wendy house.
710
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,000
This is really cramped in here.
711
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,080
Oh, man, that's intense!
712
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,240
It's coming up to eleven o'clock now.
713
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,480
I'm absolutely drained and I painted
a few little corners in the interior.
714
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,240
He's got a whole car to do.
715
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,320
But that has got
to be hurting like hell.
716
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,320
How are you doing that
with your back?
717
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,360
No, it's all right. We're nearly
there now, ain't we?
718
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,120
It's like watching the car step
forwards out of my memory.
719
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,360
I hadn't realised how wrong
the colour had been
720
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,760
and that that wasn't really Oliver.
721
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,480
Mission accomplished.
Looks tidy, doesn't it?
722
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,080
Feel it looks more Oliver-y.
723
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,920
Oh! Man, that is Oliver!
724
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,960
That... Oh, that is just incredible.
725
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,480
That is the memory made
three dimensional.
726
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,520
It's absolutely fabulous.
727
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,440
25 to 12:00 I can foresee an early
start coming in the morning,
728
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,920
but I knew it'd happen.
729
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,480
Right.
730
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,200
Shutting up shop.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
732
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:52,040
The festival is a celebration
of ordinary and unexceptional cars.
733
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:56,840
Perfect for us, apart from the fact
that Oliver is too old to enter.
734
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,520
That is looking bloody great.
Nice. That's nice.
735
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,520
Utterly brilliant, is how it looks.
Look at that.
736
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,520
We get so caught up on alloy wheels
on everything... Yeah.
737
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,040
..that you forget.
That's transformed the car.
738
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:11,560
Right. Start.
739
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:15,480
(EXHALES) Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
741
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,640
We've been told that Oliver
must arrive under his own steam,
742
00:37:22,720 --> 00:37:26,160
which is fine,
but he has got quite a cargo.
743
00:37:26,240 --> 00:37:27,680
Us.
744
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,520
INDISTINCT is literally nothing
I can do,
745
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,520
I'm giving it everything he's got.
746
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,200
If we go any faster
into a bend, we'll roll.
747
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,200
I don't think I'll be
rolling around much.
748
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,920
No, no, we'll all be perfectly fine
cos we can't move.
749
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,440
If we crash, they'll just be trying
to work out whose bit is what.
750
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,800
I'm looking forward to this show.
I'm desperate to see the cars.
751
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,640
You'll see things
that you've forgotten about.
752
00:37:48,720 --> 00:37:51,320
Definitely a few things
I wish I had forgotten about.
753
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,240
I still haven't told the lads
that Oliver isn't eligible.
754
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:59,080
I'll find the right time
to tell them. I'm sure I will.
755
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,880
Not now.
756
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,880
Chaps, you'll agree, prime position.
757
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,640
It's the first car they see
when they drive in.
758
00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:11,640
Neil's pulled the window
winder off! (LAUGHS)
759
00:38:11,720 --> 00:38:13,240
That's not a brilliant advert.
760
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,480
Just can't ever open
the window again.
761
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,200
Right, I'll let you out.
762
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,760
You know when you went on,
like, family holidays as a kid,
763
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,240
and all the other families
had windbreaks and cool boxes
764
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,520
and you had a rug, if you were lucky?
765
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,760
I brought a kit this time.
So, we are...
766
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,600
We're properly sorted, OK?
767
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,120
He's actually thought ahead.
That's the easel, set that up.
768
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,640
(LAUGHS) I've got us...
769
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:38,400
You can't pass it on, I'm afraid.

00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,280
Oh!
..a special sign with all about...
771
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,440
and if it stops raining, deck chairs!
772
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,840
We all deserve
a sit down after this week.
773
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,440
We're going to be working, remember?
774
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,280
So, how many cars are actually here?
In the competition? Yeah.
775
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,520
Well, it's more about the whole day,
innit?
776
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,320
So, that goes there. There you go.
777
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:56,400
And hang on.
778
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,600
There you are. Perfect.
779
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:03,440
Time for Oliver to do his thing and,
hopefully, drum up some business.
780
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,920
Someone said, "I think there's a car
that looks like Oliver over there...
781
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,080
'Looks a bit like'? (LAUGHS)
No, that is!

(LAUGHS) Yeah.
783
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,080
So, what are you here in?
See the Proton over there,
784
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,320
that won last year.
I'm not in that one.
785
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,480
I'm in one in a much rougher
condition.
786
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,520
Take. OK. Look at our workmanship.

Oh, thank you.

00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,120
Yeah, a lot of these cars were
restored at home by owners,
793
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,320
but a lot have had work and I think
there might actually be
794
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,920
a job or two in there.
795
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,240
Where do we start?
Trust me on this. Simca.
796
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,440
When I was a kid,
there was one of those by the school.
797
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,040
Marina. There had to be one.
798
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,200
I'm not popular
with the Marina owners club.

00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,920
Mark One Fiesta. (GASPS)
That's such a pretty little car.
800
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,760
This is an unusual vehicle.
801
00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,360
Yes, it's a 1983
Toyota Sprinter Carib.
802

My Dad shipped it over to Sri Lanka
where I grew up.
803
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,800

in this car and 2004,

00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,480
the Boxing Day Tsunami...
Oh, oh, yeah. ..it was flooded
805
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,480
and it fell into a bad state.
806
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,440
We gave it in to a body shop
to fix it up
807
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,680
but I'm not quite happy
with how it's done.
808
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,640
What are you not happy with?
It's not the right gold
809
00:40:19,720 --> 00:40:21,880
and so, it's not quite
the car I remember.
810
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,280
If we could do the job for you,
we could rub that down, scan that
811
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,600
and give you
the exact original colour
812
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,560
of every panel on there, which is
what we've done with Oliver.

Yeah, we could definitely...

have you got a card?
Give you a card.

for a confession.

to death

in there, in the concourse.

apart by three chubby Herefordians.

miss in the small print, then?

00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,760
Car's too old? You can't even...
I didn't read it.
828
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,400
I can't believe you never read
the small print, you tit!
829
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,600
I could swear, but I'm not going to.
830
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,320
I am heartily sorry.
831
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:26,800
You knew? Yes!
832
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,960
If I told you halfway
through yesterday,
833
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,880
you wouldn't have finished the car.
834
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,720
True.
We probably would have killed you.
835
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,920
Exactly, and where would
that have got any of us?
836
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:38,800
Well, that could have been worse.
837
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,520
Might as well go and see
what we could have won.
838
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,400
The winner of the 2022
Concours De L'Ordinaire,
839
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:51,880
goes to the three door Vauxhall
Astra Merit of Samuel Allan!
840
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:53,440
(APPLAUSE)
841
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,400
Come on, Sam!
842
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,840
Congratulations, mate!
Absolutely brilliant.
843
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,560
So, Ladies and gentlemen,
it can't have escaped your notice
844
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,680
that we've got
a few special guests today.
845
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,760
Oliver, ladies and gentlemen,
is here today.
846
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,200
Wanted to be part of the party,
847
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,840
and rather than say "No, too old,"
848
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:15,520
we've decided to give Oliver
a special award this afternoon.
849
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,280
So, ladies and gentlemen,
it's the award
850
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,960
for the "Best Effort To Enter
An Ineligible Car
851
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,160
into the Concours de l'Ordinaire."
(LAUGHTER)
852
00:42:23,240 --> 00:42:25,000
Please put your hands together
853
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,800
for Richard Hammond and
'The Smallest Cog'! Come on up!
854
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,280
You've got a prize. (APPLAUSE)
855
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,840
INDISTINCT metaphoric work there.
856
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,480
Look at this, look.
We've actually won an award.
857
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,760
But this sets the benchmark,
now, doesn't it?
858
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,560
Only way is up.
859
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,760
Oliver is a remarkably fine car
860
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:51,360
it's clearly the result of a very
well carried out restoration.
861
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,400
We got a prize.
Something to take home
862
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,160
and the main thing is,
what I am going to do,
863
00:42:56,240 --> 00:42:58,720
is immediately start looking
at where we can take it.
864
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,000
Right. Let's go. I don't know
if I can get in, I'm hurting.
865
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,240
What? No, not you, now! Come on!
866
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,560
Are you in, wedged in?
Come on, Dad.
867
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,640
You don't need your seatbelt.
INDISTINCT Right.
868
00:43:09,720 --> 00:43:11,760
Please start now, Oliver.
869
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:12,840
Yay!
870
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,000
Chaps! We have, pretty much,
a royal visit today.
871
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,840
The world's leading expert
on Bentley Type Rs...
872
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:23,920
Ooh! (LAUGHS)
873
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:25,120
This is the Alvis.
874
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,400
It's nearing completion. Is it?
875
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:28,920
Right, turn the key.
876
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,160
Something worked! That's it!
877
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:34,520
Go out for a few laps.
Don't overdo it.
878
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,200
This is the moment of truth, really.
Oh, he's spun!
879
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,160
He's spun.
He's coming in for a pad change.
880
00:43:40,240 --> 00:43:41,920
(LAUGHS)
