You got better production quality in this video than some tv shows and movies have 😂

This was so well done. I think this could be your new career. Wonderful put together and filmed well done man. So enjoyable 👍👍

Here we got Mat, you're on your way to being the next Harry Metcalfe. You'll be giving us previews of Silverstone Auctions soon enough!

Normally watch on my phone but switched to my TV just to embrace the fantastic visuals 👍🏾 Two things. More videos like this and definitely give us a video with an original Mini 👍🏾

Nice work Matt , if this video was 2 hours long I would have watched every second of it .

You need to do more of these! I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the older cars and of course your geeky knowledge haha

Absolutely loved this production, please keep visiting similar venues. I don’t know what I enjoyed more, the classic MG’s and Triumph’s or your enthusiasm which I can only describe as “ like a kid in a sweet shop”. I could tell you were in your element. A job well done.

I’d genuinely struggle if I went to a classic car auction, I just know I’d buy something and then think “what have I done “ afterwards !!

An MGC is pretty much identical to an MGB aside from the 3-litre straight six, 15 inch wheels instead of 14 inch, and the bonnet bulge to accommodate the radiator. Love the classic Mini Cooper JC later in the video as well - my all time dream car.

I had an original (1973) mini in early 1982 ish. It was great to drive because it went like the clappers and you never needed to change down gears going round corners in town.

My favourite of your videos, and that’s quite an accolade. I think the viewing figures will show a new summer side angle for you, and hopefully us! An MGC has a straight 6, 3 litre, and is quite a car. I think you might have some form of crimson fever. You walked past 2 red Italian beauties! 😂

The XR4i was the first of my dad's cars I got to drive when I turned 17. I love those things. Unfortunately, so did all the car thieves in the area. Kept getting TWOC'd. If my footy bet comes in this week, I'm buying another one.

What a great video thanks for taking us for a look around ! it was very interesting seeing some lovely old motors!!

Just brilliant. Your taste in cars is almost as eclectic as mine. The star for me is the 500E. I’ve been trawling the web for them since your last video. A W124 Mercedes with Porsche input. I simply can’t think of anything better! 😂

This was a very interesting video and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing so many cars from my youth (I am 70+ years old now). You pointed to an E-type jaguar 4.2 litre at 18.00 minutes with the "vinyl top". For your information this is a Webasto sun roof, a very good quality slide and fold -back roof, a perspex fly screen is also part of the mechanical roof which can be pushed up from inside. My wife had one of these in the late 1970's on her 1965 Mini Hooper, also had Dunlop wheels, walnut dash panel and 2" thick blue pile carpets. Yes it had been fitted out by Hooper Coachworks, as a special. This video brought back wonderful memories of fantastic cars. I had a particular fondness for the Mark 2 Lotus Cortina at 17.20mins. I think the original car would have had quarter bumpers, certainly the Mark One did. Thank you for showing this, and best wishes for future vids.

Love this Matt. Please do more if you get a chance. Also, I think THIS is where the production level and style as in this presentation belongs. Your “look at what I’ve bought…” videos need you POV style. Best of luck. And that XJRS wow!!

The High Peak Drinking Game - Take a shot every time Matt says... "Its an awful lot of car for the money" "It wants a good clean" "Its all the engine you'd need" You'd be hammered 🤪 and I love it

Fantastic to see you growing the channel like this, the production values just keep getting better, You with Smith & Sniff would be a winning combination for sure, I'd love to see you collaborate with Jonny, perhaps on a barn find for extra 'real world' future advice about what could happen to them when they get moved on in the market - you'd certainly have a lot in common with Richard Porter, given the locale and your snide wit and attitude (not to mention knowledge) it would be a winning combination....I think I've just realised who the next three presenters of that show should be!...I know you don't have that sort of agent but someone should get the three of you in a room together for sure.

I went to the H and H auction in Buxton last year, but the prices were crazy. Like all auctions including Mathewsons the cars nine times out of ten go for loads more than the estimate and then there is the commission on top. I was going to go to the auction today but now i do not need to after seeing all the cars in the vid. The only cars i would be interested in are the Mini, TR6 and Capri. I had an MGB, TR6 and Rover Mini years ago when they were new. Yes i am old and do not need reminding of it lol. The old cars had charm and bring back great memories of when i owned them, but modern cars are so advanced and mostly reliable. Better safety and extras like cruise control, air con, heated seats and much better MPG.

Look at you, preppy. Smartened up for the Auction tour. Like this format! To wet our appetites, it would be great to hear about the estimates

Great video as usual. Liked the tweed jacket as well! The S-Type Jag has longer tail and independent rear suspension compared to Mk 2 , it’s more modern but the market still values it less than the Mk2 .

Loved it Matt, the TR6 brought back memories for me , I had a 1970 model which being pre 72 had the 150bhp engine they had to down grade to 125 for the American market. The Facel Vaga also reminded me of my neighbour in London’s South Kensington ! Lionel Bart who had a metallic Blue one. Thanks for bringing these classics back to life. 🙏🙏 27:13

Oh websto roof on the e type I think like it, it could be the best video ever, it was like a walk through the car magazines of the 70s and 80s that I bought as a kid and not so kid, even the Kougar thing was in them, did I spot a fiat 124 sport in red lurking there too. Nice production as lots of viewers have said, really cool.

Love the no nonsense approach...keep em coming ❤

Wow, loved it, some of those cars were really cool… You’ll have to do a follow up and let us know what some of them went for!!!

Great video Matt. It made you look very youthful, but unfortunately made me feel very old. Fantastic setting,(I love Buxton) and the cars on show were many and varied. Very interesting. Well done, beautiful clear, quality filming. Regards, Derek.

Absolutely loved that Matt, excellent presenter I thought! Please do more of this

I am not much inclined to comment. I watch most all of your videos. This particular video is excellent for content. You showed my Stag, one of my TR6, and a Scirocco. Thank you for a memory trip. For what it is worth; I enjoy the cheap vehicles you buy. Thank you

So interesting, definitely do more auctions/car part swap meets/car club days etc. It’s a nice change from your regular bread and butter videos.😊

Matt, @1:10 onwards is amazing. Really sets the scene!

Matt, loved this one, cars from my childhood and my Dads! He was picked up from school in one of those 1930s Rolls Royce, his Dad , my Grandad was a Chauffeur to a family in what is now South London.

Great video, very watchable. Hope you do more in the future!

Brilliantly put together Matt it's only a matter of time before main steam pick you up 👌👍

Excellent video Matt , I really enjoyed watching , you should go to some more classic car auctions and classic car shows ,there really enjoyable and normal very well organised.

Great Video Matt. As an older guy I could have bored you to tears giving you some background on the cars which are before your era! My favourite was the 2.8 Capri - always wanted one!

What a revelation! Some fantastic classics here and all in the one place. Congratulations…

In 1960 my Dad drove a Ford V8 Pilot - green, brown upholstery. People kept making cash offers for it. It was the same V8 engine as used in army vehicles during the war. Any mechanic could work on them quite easily. A comfortable but heavy car. Maximum speed 80mph.

Really wanted you to check tyre brands and if all corners matched 😂

What a fantastic video lovely cars some really amazing presentation/ camera shots something different from your usual and still in formative you need a TV show its so good

Loved this. My first car was a 1973 mini and my second was an MG Midget 1973 that I pulled out of a hedge and restored fully. More of this please :)

Cracking video Matt. The quality of your films are going from strength to strength and this was on par with anything on mainstream TV. As others have said, I'd have watched all of this if it had been two hours long! Love your enthusiasm and we can tell how genuinely passionate you are about cars. I really expected a follow up with you driving the P38 telling us you'd bought it. Keep up the fantastic work Matt.

Fantastic content! Loving the production efforts, with what feels like Dennis Collins coffee walk accents 👌

Matt I'm 61 and I've never driven a Mini either! When I was young and Skint back in the early 80's the Citroen Dyane was my transport of choice! However looking back there was always something big and stupid in between each Dyane, V6 Granada(x2) RoverP5 and a V8 P6, early series 1 XJ all bought for buttons back then. I've never driven a Beetle either. Canada has a bit of history regarding RHD, they drove on the right until the late 20's and had a healthy export market into the 60's for US cars built with RHD in Canada.

I really enjoyed the tour, so many classic cars reunited. Thank you Matt

Imagine a high peak autos auction. One day right?

love these auctions, what a selection, great video!

Hi Matt. I don’t normally bother to comment but I think this video was one of your best. Also, it made my very nostalgic and looking at the expected prices I now I wish I had been able to hang onto my E-type, S-type, frog eyed Austin Healy, TR2, TR3, TR4, TR6, MG, Series 1, 2 and 3 Land Rovers, Lotus Cortina and Lotuses. Even my Sierra XR4x4 and Mini! I would be rich. Now I couldn’t fit in any of them! I drove my boss’s Corvette back in the 80s when in the US and it was terrible although the Daimler Dart was the first car in which I did over 100 MPH on the Kingston bypass. I really hope you will do some more videos like this one. Thanks a lot.

Loved it. Got better and better with the old❤ cars. Those things are works of art in a different way from today. Loved your presentation style and honest opinions. Thanks Matt.

Really enjoyed that Matt. Surprised at the low(ish) the prices. I have driven the original mini - they're shoite.

felt like I was watching one of Harry's Garage Silverstone auctions. big fan of those, so obviously enjoyed this. ✊ what's next for Matt? next video probably see him popping up with David Hasselhoff at Gumball 3000. 😄

The Cinematography here was absolutely fantastic

WOW! Absol brilliant, and loved the older cars partic' the Rolls. Loved the craftsmanship :)

Enjoyed that and hats off to you for showing and talking about cars you did not have much knowledge of. They are fascinating cars to someone born in the 80’s like me. The E38 looks like a lovely car. I imported one from japan last year with only 13k miles on the clock and one previous owner. Good luck if you go for one. I’d only swap mine for a SL55 with low mileage to go with a couple of other M113K engined cars I have already.

Well dressed! 🍸

Terrific entertainment Matt. Your production values get better with every video. Now we've got some great drone shots to capture the setting and atmosphere. I'm amazed that you turned that round in such a short time, before auction day. Don't know how you kept your enthusiasm in check...you could have been the proverbial kid in the toy shop. So many if these cars were from my youth. As a teenager I remember the London Met Police buying two Daimler Darts in 1961 as traffic cars. They finished up with 26. (a bit more useless info for you 😉) Thanks again for this...great stuff. Cheers Roj

Excellent tour! Thanks for the video. Really enjoyed it. I loved that last Rolls Royce with massive back seat. Can you imagine being chauffeured in that with a glass of good whisky on the table. 🎩😎

Very nice video. I still have a P38 that I bought new in 2001. Still running well, although some of the plastic trim parts are breaking down and I can't find replacements.

Absolutely love the E500. I had an E320 in a forest green color with a caramel brown interior. One of my favorite cars ever. Really enjoyed the vid. Nice to mix the type of vids up every once in awhile.

One of your best. Beautiful aerial shots.

Love it Mat, great stuff a beautiful balance between the old and the more modern cars, its good to see how far we've come

Great Video Matt. I cant believe how inexpensive some of the cars were. I darn’t go to a car auction as I would have been biding on 3 or 4 of the ones you highlighted. My concern is what happens to them when we have gone net Zero? Museum pieces?

Snappy dresser -the Nigel Havers of High Peak

Brilliantly done! Really enjoying all your content at the moment Mat. Keep it coming. 👏🏻

Love this video. It's nice to see something different. You have a great presenting style and a genuine interest in the cars. I think you should do more of these

That was a different video and a pleasure to watch. We genuinely could see you one day standing next to Chris Harris saying “in this week’s Top Gear…” 👍

Does this make you want to expand and start dealing with classic stock?

You can tell the MGC from the slight bonnet bulge - it has a modified C series engine based on the Austin 3 litre 6 cylinder engine

Great vid, thank you and you have some proper old car knowledge for a young feller Matt.

Nice to see some new ideas/content on the channel 😊

Brilliantly done Matt. Thanks so much for bringing us along, such a treat. I had the frog eyed Sprite, 2 roadsters and the GT. Grew up had a couple of porches, got old into BMW, now ancient, your worst nightmare....a campervan, hahaha. 70yo. MGs were troublesome, I used to write down part numbers, and retuning a regular thing. This event really suits you, I hope you get to pick something up. My ribs would ache if you took a barn find in you your valet chap, what a hoot.

Great ! Please do some more of these types of videos ! Thanks Tony

Excellent watch Matt. I’m up for more of this type of production. Well done to you and the crew.

Another video where you could have given us a couple of hours and we'd still have watched it! Loved seeing some of the older cars and thought it would be perfect having modern reliability with the build quality of old, thanks Matt, keep up the good work

Definitely the way to go to break up the other videos / reviews. Very enjoyable. A step in the right direction. It’s great to hear your knowledge and passion, insight and enthusiasm.

Great video, really shows off your knowledge and I never say no to seeing some gorgeous (read: very tempting) cars! The camerawork and drone shots at the start really show off the extra production value! Love your passion, and same goes for all your videos, keep them coming and keep it up Matt!

Truly excellent, Matt. Fantastic filming and great viewing!

Really enjoyable, love your enthusiasm and how you don't BS if you don't know something is really refreshing! Geeking out as a classic car owner, those vinyl sunroofs are generally called Webasto roofs after the main maker of them Look forward to seeing more like these videos.

One of your best yet, really upped your game here with great photography. Growing up in the 60's in Cardiff, there was a Vette just like the red one with a black convertible top. Also had a yellow AquaCar just around the corner. My Dad's boss had a V12 E Type Coupe, I had a ride out in it once, it was so fast for its time. RE: The MK2 and S Type Jags, the Boot is more curved on the MK 2 with the S Types being a little longer and flatter.

Wow that was brilliant Matt, thank you so much. I love stuff like that, the quality of some of those cars from the past, is outstanding.

Interesting fact regarding the intertwined R’s on the famous Rolls-Royce radiator badge. Originally this badge was finished in red, but after the death in 1933 of co-founder Sir Henry Royce, it was changed to black as a mark of respect. As an ex Rolls-Royce employee (aerospace) whenever we had any freebies on the company we would always say, with respect, that “Charles & Henry are paying for this”.

More of These please Mat, welcome to the addictive world of wonderfull old cars, the perfect way to deplete your resourses and start enjoing motoring again!

best video yet Matt +editing excellent as well

You smashed this Matt, very knowledgeable and a great presenter. More please! Oh and you do need to test a classic Mini - but an early one - a Mk1 1275 Cooper S or similar. Keep up the great work.

A breath of fresh air - Thanks, great video. For us humble soles stuck in Singapore this was definitely a call to come home!

Excellent video, loved the content. Just watched the live auction and wish I hadn’t, can’t believe how relatively cheap some of those lots were. I may find myself in Buxton in July😩.

Great video Matt. You can genuinely tell you had fun going around there 😂 like a kid in a sweet shop

Absolutely loved this Matt, more of these please. I really hope you bought that 750i, so cool!

Wow! What a feast of lovely old cars... Thanks for the ride, Matt!

I enjoyed that... thanks Matt for filming your visit. Would definitely like to see more auctions, and it looked like you really enjoyed it as well. Great camera work 👍

Matt, I quite like the fact that you are not a geek, in the sense that you look at older cars through the lens of your generation with interest and a bit of curiosity but without nostalgia. The latter is what drives up prices of the fast Fords, in particular.

Matt, a great presentation and very informative especially to me living on the other side of the planet. More of these would be much appreciated and add a new dimension to your channel.

Do more of these! It's a treat for the eyes

Absolutely loved it. Looking forward to another one. Thank you so much.

Another great video, Matt. It's nice seeing you taking a deeper dive into the classics scene.

What a really enjoyable video Matt, loved your very relaxed and honest style of presenting. Yes please Matt! more of this content, some really beautiful car's. Harry Metcalf had better watch out, there's a new guy on the block. 😊

Thanks for bringing us with you, Matt Great video! 👍

These are really interesting Matt, thankyou. I love going to old auctions, there are so many interesting cars to see. If you can do some more it would be much appreciated.

That BMW 750 was stunning!! been toying with getting one for a couple years

Even in its un restored condition that P1800 is just the coolest car ever.

Excellent vid Matt... love to see you bringing an old classic back to its former glory
