In this episode, Dave travels to Wales with the aim of securing a Sierra Cosworth, a model that’s highly coveted among bidders. He hopes the Welsh auction will allow him to add the prized hatchback to his collection. Meanwhile, his father Derek acquires a far more modest vehicle – a 1926 Standard Tourer – described as a quirky little motor that offers a gentle driving experience compared with the high‑performance Cosworth. The contrast between Dave’s pursuit of a fast, sought‑after car and Derek’s contentment with a vintage, laid‑back tourer frames the dual storylines of the programme. Dave’s enthusiasm focuses on the Cosworth’s reputation for speed, whereas Derek appears content with the tourer’s charm and simplicity.

Derek makes his way to Suffolk with the aim of picking up two Bentleys that boast a distinguished pedigree. The first car, called Cynthia, is a 1963 S3 model, while the second, named Harry, is a 1965 Continental. Both vehicles reflect the classic elegance associated with their era, and Derek’s trip centres solely on retrieving these particular machines. The journey underscores his interest in preserving the heritage of these iconic automobiles, and the episode follows his straightforward task of collecting the two cars in the countryside. Cynthia, with its sleek lines and period‑correct details, exemplifies the charm of early‑sixties British engineering, while Harry, with its longer wheelbase and refined finish, showcases the luxury aspirations of the mid‑sixties.
