London had standards in those days Now look at it run by cronies at tfl. They've ruined London it's now a toy town full of road signs narrow roads. Cycle lanes in the middle of pavements. If tfl and councils if they could they would put road jumps on your doorstep with a walking speed limit and road humps in the sky. Get rid of tfl waste of space and air.

I loved oldskool London before all the real cockneys moved to Essex and the resettlement programme started..otherwise known as mass immigration..as an 80"s kid born in 1979 i missed the 60"s and 70"s but growing up in the 1980"s i think i caught the last of the oldskool era"s and i miss them.

This is more like the 50's and 60's. By the 1970's alot of this was disappearing. By 1980 it was very different from anything in this video. Most of this video is 1960's London, apart from the first minute or so - which looks more like the 50's.

Wow pure lovely nostalgia , that London has gone forever sadly. I remember it well , routemaster buses , and just look at the British cars on the roads then , Austin's Morris , now it's German cars everywhere , and modern high rise expensive appartments with no character ., If only Dr Who's TARDIS was real , and I could travel back to the sixties , and the mid seventies , would be great.Oh well we can all dream

Even though I was never in London during the 60s, this is the period of my childhood. This era is so familiar that, though a city location, this is heavily nostalgic to me. As we default to the feel of a certain period, as with our formative years, it 'feels' right.

There's not much '70's' here.......it's mainly the 60's, with some scenes from 50's London. London was not like this in the 1970"s - by then there were already alit more cars on the roads in central London.

I'll tell you why. Thank your ancestors for this, who built this great empire that stretches over a third of the world. All these people in Africa, India ... etc were told they live in one great British Empire. Then the empire withdrew from Africa and India, leaving these people alone in poverty. So do not be surprised that today the descendants of those people want to come to a country that has been exploiting their homelands for decades. It's the consequence of your previous "greatness".

@@robm8809 Thanks Rob, yes, the Vitesse really hits the spot for me. It's a Mk2 Vitesse so as standard the Mk2s came with the TR5 cylinder head fitted for,a little more bhp compared with the Mk1s. During my resto of it, I changed the gearbox to an overdrive one ....overdrive really does double the fun of driving it on a motorway. I'm soon planning to do a London tour in it with a friend ...(maybe we might go through tower bridge, we did back in June in my friends Mini.) I think going in the Vitesse is almost re-living this video especially as it's a 1969 car.
