ITV COMEDY CLASSICS ON THE BUSES Tuesday 9th September 2008 on ITV 1 Comedy Classics is a brand new series which raids ITV’s comedy archives and celebrates some of the best-loved sitcoms in the channel’s history. Light-hearted and entertaining, the series looks at classic shows; On the Buses, Rising Damp, Doctor in the House, Brass, Duty Free and The New Statesman and features contributions from cast members and celebrity fans as well as behind-the-scenes gossip and some of the programmes’ funniest moments. The first in the series, Comedy Classics: On the Buses, goes back to the bold, bawdy and brash show which hit the screens in 1969.

So long as you're not in race mode its sweet and refined below 4500rpm. Good mid range torque but its drops off very quickly at low revs. Not overly economical either but its cruises silently and the gearbox changes swiftly and precisely.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/gsboot.pnggsbootWhopping boot and seats that fold and lock down flat to the floor. There's also a charging point on the floor but the sliding loadbay cover feels flimsy in use.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/gsintrear1.pnggsintrearLoads of space front, rear and in the boot. Rear passengers get air vents but no additional charging socket for phones, tablets or kiddies game consoles.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/gsint.pngGSINTComfy and supportive front seats with excellent driving position. Too much hard plastic but it seems much better crafted than previous MG models. Buttons and switches feel robust and good to the touch and the cabin is very refined. Faux piano black looks stylish but is prone to reflections in bright light. Infotainment and Sat-Nav system works very well but no Wi-Fi link.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/gsintrear.pnggsintrearVery good amount of space on offer.

They rob the car of the sporting accent its meant to have though and dilutes the zesty nature the brand suggests.

As with the front, rear seat is comfortable and supportive.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image20.jpgimageThe 6 speed gearbox has a pleasant change action. Push button terrain selection is simplicity itself but the gear lever gaitor feels thin and cheap to the touch.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image19-e1406552742863.jpgimageThe 150 Ps 2.2 TD4 engine for most of the time is refined and muted. Push it hard though and it gets a bit noisy. Good pulling power but the torque drops off quickly under 1500rpm. Eco boosting stop-start function is standard.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image18-e1406539971535.jpgimageThe Freelander SE is well appointed inside. Front seats are electrically adjustable and super snug. Steering wheel rim is a little on the thin side but generally, the quality is very good and that analogue clock (as fitted in the current Discovery) looks great - excellent heating and air con system too.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image17-e1406543056258.jpgimage2014-07-28T13:42:38+00:00monthlyhttps://autobritannia.net/2014/07/25/time-well-spent-toyota-auris-touring-sports-1-6i-icon/https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image6.jpgimageNot as dynamic as a Civic Tourer or as tactile as a Focus, but a safe bet that's bound to be utterly reliable. Stylish and well made with good dealers too... Just make sure you opt for a manual!https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image5.jpgimageThe 130bhp 1.6 is smooth and refined when cruising, but the CVT gearbox is very disappointing and makes the drivetrain harsh when rushed. With a manual gearbox this car would be a joy to drive. https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image4.jpgimageGood space and comfort inside though taller rear passengers may find legroom a bit tight. Colour scheme is bland though and the central part of the dash looks slab like out of place with the stylish exterior.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image3.jpgimageThe load bay is wide and accomodating. The seat backs drop down via a clever lever that requires a single and easy one fingered pull. The boot is flat, features a sliding cover, 12v power point and a nice low sill height.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image2.jpgimageThe Toyota Auris Touring Sports 1.6 Icon CVT2014-07-27T17:16:45+00:00monthlyhttps://autobritannia.net/2014/07/25/unipart-automotive-well-miss-you-red-white-blue/https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image16.jpgimageUNIPART - The nations best known supplier of motor factoring, garage equipment and all makes aftermarket parts has sadly collapsed.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image15.jpgimageJovial and vivid adverts like this one from the late 70's along with their famous calendars made Unipart a by-word and a first call for aftermarket parts and accessories. https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image14.jpgimageUnipart was originally lead by John Egan.

It needs more colour to lift the dark ambiance. Some plastics feel bitterly cheap and hard - but its well built and beyond reproach for the price tag.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image10.jpgimageThe dials perform a racing style sweep when the ignition is turned on. Bright blue lamp to advise of a cold engine is confusing at night and totally unnecessary. https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image9.jpgimagePackaging is pretty good. Plenty of interior space and a decent sized boot - shame the floor is not not flat when the backrests are folded.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image8.jpgimageNow where have I seen that oil cap before? The 1.5 plant revs freely and is wonderfully quiet around town. It lacks some bottom end torque though but new engines are in the pipe line that can't come soon enough.https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image7-e1413205048643.jpgimageShowroom traffic for models like the MG3 (above) and the MG6 can only get better thanks to this great news!2017-07-11T08:12:17+00:00monthlyhttps://autobritannia.net/2014/07/21/events-the-festival-of-the-unexceptional/https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/morris20marina202-e1405940144732.jpgMorris%20Marina%20(2)2014-07-21T10:56:39+00:00monthlyhttps://autobritannia.net/2014/07/17/mini-congratulations-2014-car-of-the-year/https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/f56_05_lifestyle_a0167443_gallery_720-e1405582354670.jpgF56_05_lifestyle_A0167443_gallery_720The multi award winning UK built MINI goes from strength to strength.2014-07-17T07:35:24+00:00monthlyhttps://autobritannia.net/2014/07/11/time-well-spent-jaguar-xj-l-3-0-sdv6-portofolio/https://autobritannia.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/wp_20140701_0161-e1405092014517.jpgWP_20140701_016(1)Red car in sight?
