One of the longest restoration projects to date finally goes under the hammer. A Series 1 Land Rover that Dave says, "looks like someone has shot it with a 12 bore. Repeatedly." It is well past its best-before date, but the _Restoring Classics team couldn't see it go to waste and spend tens of thousands making it perfect... well, almost. After a frank discussion with the accountant, the team also opt for a more budget-friendly purchase and take on two Moulton Deluxe bicycles which were an engineering revolution in the 60s. Plus there's a catch up with the 18-year-old who bought a 1960's MGBGT to see how his three-year-long restoration has been progressing.

The team snap up a slightly saggy 1970s Saab 96, but despite a stunning restoration, could it result in a record financial loss when it goes to auction?

A super-rare Renault Clio Williams 2 in F1 blue with contrasting gold alloys has turned Dave Mathewson an interesting shade of green.

The team restore a 1988 Golf GTI Convertible - an iconic hot hatch - along with a wooden launch boat and catch-up on a Mk1 Austin Mini.

The team break with tradition and actually follow Dave Mathewson's advice on what to restore - he points to a 1992 Vauxhall Nova Merit Plus!

Derek Mathewson reckons it was a period of British car manufacturing that many would think best forgotten but the Restoring Classics team pays tribute to mid-80s-Midlands by breathing new life into what was once the fastest production MG ever made - the Montego Turbo.

Attracted by the car's blistering 0-60 of just over 7 seconds, the team fail to pay enough attention to the blistering coachwork, ignore most of the advice and spend big.

Meanwhile, the auction budget also lands some classic memorabilia in the form of a Shellmex globe that used to sit atop of petrol pumps. An artistic route is taken, but will Derek appreciate it? There's also catch up with a Cumbrian scout bus from the 1970s stirring up happy memories from the original Sixers who are now in their sixties.
