Many car lovers have dreamed of stumbling upon a barn find. Opening the doors to a barn or building that’s been shut up for years to find a classic, or even better, collection of classics covered in layers of dust and dirt. We won’t all find a time capsule car, but we can live through the eyes of those that do like this abandoned BMW dealership find.   YouTubers from the channel M539 Restorations took cameras along for the journey and shared the video to their channel so we can explore with them.

By |2026-06-17T18:41:10+00:00February 2nd, 2022|Classic Cars|0 Comments

The original MINI seems to be the perfect candidate for a powertrain transplant. Back in November 2020, we reported on Swindon releasing a Mini conversion kit, allowing owners to swap out their combustion engine for an electric powertrain. Now, engineer’s at MINI in Oxford have developed an official EV conversion for classic MINI’s – MINI Recharged.   The new drivetrain, which is fully electric, is capable of producing 121bhp, significantly more than the standard classic MINI engine. MINI Recharged will replace the engine with an electric motor and battery. Interestingly, they will store the vehicle’s original running gear for the

With the sale of new petrol and diesel cars due to end by 2030, the government are having to consider alternative road tax policies. At present, road, tax is calculated on fuel type and emissions.

With the move to electric powertrains, many car manufacturers are looking to the past to ease us into this new era of automobiles. Renault has previously teased us with a reboot of their popular hot hatch, the Renault 5.

The Laws Around Vehicle Modifications Could be Changing

By |2026-06-17T19:10:45+00:00November 21st, 2021|Classic Car News, Classic Cars, Regulations|0 Comments

The government is considering imposing further rules around vehicle modifications. The proposed 'tampering' driving laws could see owners of modified cars faced with hefty fines. These new laws would create offenses for modified parts on road-going vehicles. The government could go even further and create new offences for non-road-going vehicles too. What does this all mean?   There are already rules around car modifications that cover things such as how dark window tints can be, adding neon lights or ridiculously loud exhausts. Motorcycles will also be included in these changes. The proposed changes to rules around car modifications intend to

We are all well aware of the shortage of HGV drivers following a national pandemic and Brexit. The pandemic caused fewer lessons to be undertaken, fewer tests to be administered, and ultimately fewer HGV drivers available. Brexit is blamed for causing a considerable loss in the EU HGV drivers who prefer the stability and security of work within the EU.   A survey conducted by the Road Haulage Association suggests that there is now a shortage of more than 100,000 qualified drivers in the UK, with close to 30% of HGV driver vacancies taking two months to fill.   To enable the
