A McLaren AND a Bandvagn 206… at the SAME show?! 🤔 Boden Motor meet didn't disappoint.

I headed to Boden Motor Meet 2026 to have a look at the cars, and I certainly didn't expect to find both of these at the same event!

I recently had the chance to meet up with The Sentimental Car Club and take a closer look at their rather unusual Ford Es**rt XR3i.
This wasn't just a quick look around the car either! 🔧
We checked over the engine, talked about the car and its future, and I even got involved with setting the timing and giving my thoughts on what direction they should take with the project.

This time I'm visiting The Senmental Car Club to take a closer look...

🚗 50 years of the Ford Fiesta. 40 years of Ford Fair!
I found some incredible Mk1s and Mk2s, but this Mk1 really stood out. 😍
5 owners from new and restored to an incredible standard.

🚗 Milly's front end is coming off... and what I found underneath wasn't pretty! 😳

The restoration of my ultra-rare Mk1 Ford Fiesta Million continues, and in this episode I'm finally removing the front end to see what we're really dealing with.

Unfortunately, I discover a previous repair that definitely wasn't done the way I would have done it! 😬

Now the question is... how much more damage is hiding underneath?

I thought I was just replacing the driver's floor on my Mk1 Ford Fiesta Million... then I started cutting. 😬
What I found behind the wing completely changed the repair, so instead of buying repair sections I ended up making my own using a shrinker/stretcher and a metal shaping hammer.
The full video is here if you'd like to see how I tackled it:

Have you ever failed a vehicle inspection? 🚗
I recently took my Ford Fiesta ST150 through a Swedish vehicle inspection (Besiktning) and turned the experience into a complete guide.
In the video I explain: ✅ How to book an inspection ✅ What they actually check ✅ What happens if your car fails ✅ How the re-inspection process works
If you're moving to Sweden, importing a car, or you're just curious how Swedish inspections compare to your country, this should help.
I'd love to know—how does the inspection process work where you live?
