We take a couple of beautiful AEC Matadors out on their post-maintenance test runs and we take a look back at some of the Matadors that have been through the workshop this year.

If you want more Matador content next year, the best way is to Subscribe to the channel and get behind it. If it's a video you're not bothered about watching, just press PLAY and give it a LIKE and do something else while it's playing as it makes a MASSIVE difference to the channel and then in turn we can go and film the stuff you love - the Will It Start's ? The MATADOR content. We will promise to do all we can as long as you do YOUR bit 😉👍

An old family friend did his 5-year engineering apprenticeship with the British Army in the late 50's, mostly in West Germany during the Cold War. They were mostly working on AEC Matador (mk.3's?) that towed around radar appliances and huge generators to power them. Bill has loads of photos of his service time, with pics of the MAN's, Mercs and AEC's working in the snow. Bill is amazed that we Brits hold the German stuff in such high esteem as he rates the AEC's as being far better starters on minus 10c mornings and the AEC's often had to tow the MAN's off! Anyway, been back and "Liked" plenty of old videos.

My memories of the AEC Matador was when I was serving in the RAF, 69/71 I was on tactical signals. We had gone to Salisbury Plain on exercise with our comms equipment etc. For the return journey to RAF Tangmere I was nominated to navigate for the driver of a fully loaded Matador and drawbar trailer back to camp. What a journey, we must have hit a top speed of 30mph downhill. The uphill road towards Petersfield in Hampshire, we were reduced to less than walking pace. Every time I see a Matador I think of that journey. Happy days!!

More Matadors please, have lovely childhood memories of a Matador Timber Winch truck, 12 yrs old standing on the clutch pedal with both feet to change gear, & fighting with that huge steering wheel pulling with ever ounce of strength I had to turn the wheel, quite a job for a 12yr old girl to drive that lovely old thing and wonderful memories of the experience,..

When I was 8 years old local tree surgeons, Dalrymples, used their Matador to haul timber from the Glory woods, near Dorking, I spent all my spare time watching the mat rear up to take the strain, At the same time as this local fairground folk, Bensons, used modified Scammell gun tractors for generating and hauling rides. both of these vehicles have been favourites of mine since that time. So the more Mat's the merrier!

More Matador content please. Just been to Llandudno Transport Festival and the Matadors stole the show. On the final day as always some of the more modern HGV’s got stuck and the Matadors were amazing recovering them. I think my main memory is how agile they were in the crowded show field. Passing jams to get to the stuck trucks, easily getting into position to recover, then effortlessly dealing with the soft ground and heavy loads. Perfection.

More Matador content, please. I love seeing these back in service. First fell in love with the Matador as a child when two examples were included in a model set of a RAF Fighter base. If I recall, there was a fuel bowser and an ordinance lorry. Also had a die cast of the RA artillery tractor. Cool old trucks. We appreciate them in the USA as well.

As for the £15 ULEZ charge, you would certainly get a of emissions lot for your money with those engines. All the best for you and your channel in 2024, onwards and upwards! 👍❤️🙂
