If there's a tough job to be done, Jack is often the one chosen to be in the firing line.
Today he's off to West Yorkshire to extract a 1987 Peugeot 205 GTI from a garage in anarrow lane. The geometry is against Jack but the car is well worth it. It's one of themore prized 1.9s and has been stored safely away for many years whilst its owner hasbeen climbing mountains around the world.
Derek is on charitable duties. He's off to Essex to pick up a car and 3 motorbikes whichhave been brought back from Ukraine by people who have been delivering supplies inthe war torn country. The auctionproceeds will be split between the Ukrainian ownersand the British-based charity which provides aid. It's a passion project for Derek butPaul and Dave are far from impressed by the quality of the lots their father brings backto Yorkshire.
"Specials" which are recreations of classic cars are much maligned in the trade. Derekthough has a real soft spot for them and the dedication of the people who make them.Unsurprising then that he's fallen for the charms of a vehicle that recreates the look of a1929 Alvis Silver Eagle – a serious rival to Bentley in its day.
