I upgraded my Cortina to a 2 year old Sierra 2.0 Ghia in 1986 my dad said i was mad my car looked like a spaceship 🚀

If only I could travel back in time and transport 20 cars back with me. That would be my pension sorted. 😂😂😂

I was there, we were there. 40 years ago we were there.

Cars in 2023: the Bluetooth doesn't integrate properly with my apps: 😔.
Cars in 1986: it's got wheels a roof and windows and sometimes the engine starts: 😍.

Great cars. Great decade. Great jumpers.

The fabulous 80s.
205gti, Golf mk2, Sierra cosworths, Astra Gsi, loud colours, big hair.
Whats not to like.
Id love to go back and do it all over again

I went to this motorshow when I was 14. Seems like another world.

Just wish I could go back to 1986 full stop.

I was there, apprentice at a Ferrari garage in West Bromwich at the time, remember the Testarossa well, magical times, wish I was back there now.

Used to love these highlights programmes. Great memories as well of dad and me going to the Birmingham one and Earls Court. ❤

Thanks for uploading this! Used to love going to the NEC for the Motorshow as a kid in t h 80's and early 90's, this brings back so many memories :)

Proper day out back in the day! 🎷👍

Ah, the V12, the first maintenance-free unit.

Imagine going out dressed like Mike Smith in 2023.

this was my first motor show

those trousers

Love this, thanks for sharing.  Really miss the motor shows of my youth in the 80s and 90s, wish I could take my son now like my dad took me.  Used to come back with bag full of brochures and posters 😂

Worth watching just for the pneumatically talented Faith Brown in the satin jump suit. The cars were quite nice too.

omg Andrea Pininfarina 😢 he died so young ( 51 years old ) and in this video he was 29!!!! so sad

Went to this motorshow I was fifteen went in my uncles brand new Nissan micra collette in black and silver 😮😂.
