Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics - Season 4
Season 4
Episodes
Rolls Royce Silver Spirit/ Honda
The team fly the flag for King and country with one of their most luxurious purchases to date - a 1981 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit. A classy car deserves a classy restorer so it was cosseted down to Buckinghamshire and placed into the delicate hands of the Hiller Hill team.
The team also opt for one of the cheapest modes of transportation, a Honda C70. This one comes with a rare registration plate – will it make them some extra cash when it comes to auction?
VW Beetle/ Royal Enfield
The team reckon they can smell profit by choosing one of the simplest cars ever built, the VW Beetle. A 1976 left hand drive convertible Karman in green proved irresistible. Everything was all going swimmingly… until mechanics looked underneath the car. The second project is a1932 Royal Enfield Cycar, which hadn't left the garage for circa 50 years. Does two wheels mean half the hassle but twice the profit? Of course not!
Mazda MX5/ Moto Guzzi
This week the team opt to buy one of the most affordable sports cars on the road - the Mazda MX-5. But when they arrive at the self proclaimed 'Mazdadudes' the excitement was quickly deflated as it seems they've bought the rustiest mark, in the wrong colour.
The team's second project takes them over the North Sea to the National Military Museum in the Netherlands. A ex-military 1985 Moto Guzzi V50 is given a facelift by father and son team Adrian and Bob Dawson.
VW T25 Camper/ Audi TT
This week the team pay over the odds for a VW Campervan, but can they hope to break even when they turn out a lovely bus for auction. And a super low mileage Audi TT breaks them into the world of modern classics.
Mini and MGTF
A1969 Morris Mini Cooper MkII is totally restored by mini specialists Mini Sport. They give it the full works, which means only one thing...any chance of profit heads towards an open window.
The second project attempts to keen the books balanced as the team set out on a 2005 MGTF. Once passed their initial shock when we arrived in the car, the team at Mazdadudes set to work on making it a lovely example.
Morgan 3 wheeler/ Grifter
The Restoring Classics team set out on a Pre-War challenge with a 1939 three-wheeled Morgan F4. Problems arise when it comes to getting it onto a ramp... but aptly named Russ Storer from MG Mecca is still keen to take it on.
To make things a little easier the second project has even fewer wheels and no engine - it's a Raleigh Super Grifter. Derek thinks they've had a tough time of late, so offers to do the restoration work himself. Surely not for free?
