Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics
Season 2
The new series, Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics, will follow the journey of a vehicle purchased at a Mathewsons classic car auction, before being repaired, restored and then re-auctioned in order to try and find the vehicle a new home and loving owner.
The first series started on Thursday 21 July 2022 and will see vehicles such as a 1980s Vauxhall Astra GTE whose hot hatch days look long behind it, a MG Montego Turbo with its engine in the boot, and a rare Lotus Elan S1 that hasn't seen a road for 47 years. The team also revisit some old favourites from previous series of Bangers & Cash.

Land RoverOne 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.
