New show on Ch4, "For the Love of Cars"

Recommended Posts

New on Ch4, here is the blurb from the Ch4 website.

 

Car fanatic Philip Glenister and internationally renowned car designer Ant Anstead are on a mission - to scour the barns and lock ups of Britain for wrecked treasures to bring to life.

 

CLICKY

 

This week they did a Escort Mexico, very good and well worth a watch, it's still available on 4OD.

Very enjoyable, looks like it was a proper restoration and a decent back story to the cars. I have to admit I was waiting for him to bend it round a skip when he was badly hooning round that industrial estate!

It's no wheeler dealers tbf. Good back story as mentioned, but there wasn't enough of the actual build for me. Go faster stripes and massive fogs! :rolleyes:

Enjoyable enough, Philip Glenister does add some fun to it but it also felt like a bit of an ad for Harris Performance and aside from the brief trip to Liverpool it was very much a cockney based episode.

 

Although I don't expect to see many Londoners in the Land Rover one coming up..

It did feel a bit to family friendly for me, not enough restoration action! and philip glenister was far to easily swayed for my liking. the white rally rep they wanted to build sounded far more fun to me! that said it was certainly entertaining and any tv involving cars is ok by me
