Motor Shed Squad

Ford Cortina and Peugeot 306 GTi
S1 E1

In an emotional journey, the team races to bring an ex-rally Ford Cortina Mk1 back after 20 years off the road, so the family can raise funds for the medical care of its former driver. And a Peugeot 306 GTi hot hatch has its driver appeal restored.

Dodge Charger and VW Baja Bug
S1 E2

A Dodge Charger, used to raise money on charity drives, gets a complete interior transformation and engine work to help it roar back onto the road. The team also gives a globetrotting VW Baja desert racer a new lease on off-road life.

Jaguar Saloon and Mini
S1 E3

A social media star Mini has lost its shine, with a damaged seat, dodgy suspension and unreliable engine. The whole team focuses on the repairs, but they also have their hands full with a vintage Jaguar which can't steer or brake.

VW Beach Buggy and Ford Escort Estate
S1 E4

A VW buggy is off the road with shaky steering and a gearbox that's too stiff to select a gear; the workshop also grapples with a Fast Ford that suffered a bad rear-end shunt and needs bodywork and a respray.

BMW 325i Convertible and Triumph Herald
S1 E5

Can a Triumph Herald with terrible bodywork be saved from the crusher by cutting out the rust and giving it a full respray? A BMW convertible has been off the road for years and the team go all-out to get it ready again for top-down fun.

Ford Popular and Toyota Corona
S1 E7

A '55 Ford Popular arrives; the team tackle the dodgy brakes, before sprucing up the interior and exterior to give this classic a 21st-century makeover; a custom Toyota Corona lowrider imported from Japan offers a big bodywork and cabin challenge.

Model A Hot Rod and Jaguar XK150
S1 E8

A glamorous Jaguar XK150 sports car, owned by the same driver for 50 years, struggles to generate power, and the team diagnoses an unexpected and dangerous fault; a hot rod grounded for months gets a chance to cruise once again.

Morris Minor and Ford Thunderbird
S1 E9

A 1950s Ford Thunderbird has lost its spark and needs a total electrical upgrade to make it safe and reliable for the 21st century; a Morris Minor drops oil everywhere and shows signs of severe engine wear.

Triumph Spitfire and Rover P5
S1 E10

A Triumph Spitfire is top-down fun, but this project car, bought as a box of bits, will be a massive mission to get back on the road; a family heirloom Rover P5 also needs serious attention from the workshop crew.
