Follow #BCGBMWE30 on social media Bookmark this page to follow my ongoing series with this car – everything that happens with the ownership of this BMW – one that I’ve owned for the second time. I used to own a blue one just like this back in the 1990s, and it was one of my most missed cars.
Colin Denton is the star of new TV Show, Classic Car Garage, on Yesterday Channel (catch up on UK TV Play) – on Thursdays at 9pm. DO NOT MISS tomorrow night’s episode – I’m in it! With the same car in which I’m interviewing Colin – the Ultimate Podcast Machine, my classic BMW. We talk about the TV Show, what Colin’s day job is as a trainer, cover ULEZ and the joy of cars and especially classic cars!

I also took my 1989 BMW 325i E30 – #BCGBMWE30 – and it was great to catch up with some of you!

A pair of stunning and beautifully restored Austin Healeys sit awaiting my attention. The Blue car is a 1965 Healey 3000, and the white car is a 1957 100/6. It’s a bright sunny day, we’re in the very heart of London, and I’ll be driving both. But these aren’t ordinary classic British roadsters. They’re hiding a secret.
Check out a brand-new classic car TV show that kicks off tonight on the Yesterday channel at 9pm. There’s 10 episodes and if you miss it on terrestrial TV, you can catch up with it on UKTV Play – and you know what else? If you watch very carefully, you might catch a bit of me on it too!
Top 10 1960s Motors: The Sexiest Motors from the Swinging Sixties – The Magnificent and Mighty motors of the 1950s with their big big fenders, outlandish bumpers, and tall imposing grilles, made way for low-slung sexiness in the Seductive and Salacious sixties – oh behave! In all seriousness – the 1960s is quite possibly the most revolutionary car design eras of the automotive age. But which were the best cars of the 1960s? I’ll tell you in this video!
