Episode 10 aired on U&Yesterday on Thursday 24 September 2026. The broadcaster's listing has Derek off to Oswestry to collect two much loved family heirlooms, a 1927 Sunbeam and a 1957 Isis. The episode title adds a Pontiac GTO and an Audi Quattro.
The cars
- Pontiac GTO
- Motor Trend's Car of the Year for 1968, with a 400 cubic inch V8 of 350 horsepower, 360 in high output form, and a body-coloured Endura plastic front bumper. 87,684 were sold that year.
- 1927 Sunbeam
- the Wolverhampton firm's Twenty, a 2.9 litre overhead-valve six introduced for 1927; about 2,560 of this type were built up to 1930, with coachwork from two-seaters to Weymann saloons.
- 1957 Morris Isis
- the fastest and most powerful Morris of its day, an Oxford stretched to take BMC's 2.6 litre C-series six, 90 mph and £911 new in Series II form. Series II ran from October 1956 to April 1958 and 6,414 were built; the name was never used again.
- Audi Quattro
- the car that brought four-wheel drive to rallying and to the showroom, shown at Geneva on 3 March 1980 and built until 17 May 1991; 11,452 were made.
What they made
Mathewsons' published results include a 1968 Pontiac GTO sold for £18,200 on 8 October 2025, a 1927 Sunbeam sold for £18,000 on 18 November 2025 and a 1957 Morris Isis sold for £5,500 on 5 September 2025; each is the only car of its kind the firm has listed, so we take them to be the cars in this episode. Four Audi Quattros went through the saleroom in October and November 2025, so we give no figure until we know which one it was.
Visit
The cars on Bangers & Cash are sold at Mathewsons' Pickering saleroom, and the Mathewsons museum and shop are in Thornton-le-Dale.
