An emotional story of how one car changed ex Top Gear and Fifth gear presenter, Tiff Needell's life forever!
A huge influence throughout his early life was the Morris 1000 and Morris Traveller and Tiff takes us for a trip down memory lane in this heartfelt story.
From sliding his mothers Morris 1000 around corners, to buying a Morris Traveller as his first car, the story takes a twist to reveal why Tiff Needell ended up being a racing driver and television personality, and not a civil engineer!

did that car have a Ford 5 speed gearknob fitted? has it had a 5 speed box fitted? and gotta say, towing with a Morris 1000 is BRAVE, especially nowadays!

There's something reassuring about a Morris 1000, I am of a similar age to Tiff, passing my test on November 28th 1968 , my first car was a Morris Oxford Estate, 1962 vintage, with a very powerful 1622cc engine producing an incredible 61 bhp lol, remember racing a Ford Cortina 1.2 for around 25 miles while on holiday, we had our car full of camping gear, so it was so much fun, because going down a hill I would overtake the Cortina, but when we went up the other side the Cortina passed us lol, this went on for about 25 miles along a rare dual carriageway of the time lol, fond memories though, holes in the front footwells big enough to get your foot through ! exhaust held on with a piece of wire, and a brake pedal that went straight to the floor ! had to pump it several times for the brakes to work, drove over 1000 miles on the holiday like that 😅🤦‍♀️ but I was just 18 and a new driver, plus safety in those days was secondary to mobility !

I love this insight into Tiff's early years. I would like to know a bit more about his (few) years as a Civil Engineer. Did all the mathematics and Structural design help in his racing career? I recently found out that Colin Chapman himself was also a Civil Engineer. My first car? That was a rear wheel drive Mazda 323 estate.

A grey Morris 1000 - bought for £5 - when I was 13! To drive on the old aerodrome behind our house. Loved it when it was cold and wet and we could put the heater on 'full blast' - with wipers flapping away. Would often take a picnic too! Austin A55 next - ooh, wheelspin on the gravel in 2nd gear.

I don’t normally comment on these videos (despite being on RU-vid with a car channel myself!), but this was such an enjoyable, and beautifully presented, and well edited video, I just had to say how much I loved it. Genuinely brilliant, and very poignant. I remember travelling with my uncle in his old van as he competed in motorbike racing at Knockhill in Scotland. Such different times to today’s world of corporate sponsorship and the high cost of racing, even at junior levels. Brilliant Tiff, just brilliant. One of the best things I’ve ever seen you present.

A 2006 Kia picanto was my first car! My mum bought it for me when I was 16 and She had it sitting waiting for me when I came back from a night out with friends! It used to be owned by an old man that was blind in one eye and as a result every single body panel on the thing was battered and bruised, I loved that car dearly.

Began with a GMC Sierra truck living in Texas. Base model, rwd, and a lot of powerslides on dirt. Then moved to Rio de Janeiro, got a VW Gol, small Brazilian hatchback with a 1 liter engine, 55hp, and 145mm tires. With this car in hands I discovered Tiff Needell, got a VHS of Burning Rubber, and put all that in practice. Hand brake turns, Scandinavian flick, and even tried out the 360s!! Been a fan for over 20 years!! Learned a lot from you!

@coopdivi 3 года назад

This really struck a chord with me as my first car was a black 1958 Morris Traveller, bought third hand in 1965 when I was 19 and, yes, a Civil Engineering student at Glasgow University! It was in great condition -- I even painted a red coach stripe down the sides of the bonnet -- except for one thing. It had been undersealed, which was a good thing, but the twerp that did it also covered up the chassis drain holes with the result that after a number of years the rear spring hangers began to rot out. I sold it before it became a major problem, but it was a wrench to part with it as I really loved that car. It never let me down, always returned 40 mpg (even when running on 2½ cylinders), and could carry things like a Vespa scooter in the back on a 400 mile trip with ease. A truly great all-round performer! 👌😊

Drove it for a few years in a state of gradual degeneration (the car, not me) and kept it for years more after it could no longer be driven. Finally scrapped it when childhood memories of riding along on mom's errands and family road trips had receded far enough into the past and I could prioritize dealing with the present.

My first car was a blue Renault 5 TL registration JUR 175N. I was 9 years old and I swapped it for a top loading VHS video recorder (an xmas present) with my neighbours 2 doors down. It sat near my mums house and for a full month every night I sneaked out back to the car and drove it round the borough of Merton, South London. Never got stopped. Never had an accident. Even learned to reverse park with a few scuffs of rear wheels. Drove to Wimbledon and back to Mitcham many times late at night. My mum asked the neighbours who owned it and she found out it was me and I came clean about driving around the area. She went beserk and got the car towed away. I was grounded for 3 months. Thirty six years later I have 4 cars and (legally) still sneak out for a bit of night time driving for fun.
