Episode 11 aired on U&Yesterday on Thursday 1 October 2026. The broadcaster's listing has Derek collecting what it calls an iconic 1930s Jaguar, and Dave eyeing a replica artillery piece from the American Civil War. The episode title adds a Golf GTI garage find, a Steyr-Puch and a Chevrolet with a record player.
The cars
- VW Golf GTI
- the listing gives no mark. Volkswagen planned 5,000 of the first GTI in 1976 and built 461,690; the Mk2 of 1984 to 1991 started at 112 horsepower and reached 160 in the supercharged G60.
- 1930s Jaguar
- the SS Jaguar of 1935 was the first car to carry the name, from the company William Lyons had founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company in 1922. The 1.5 litre used a Standard side-valve engine and 2,208 were built in 1936 and 1937. S.S. Cars became Jaguar Cars in 1945.
- Steyr-Puch
- the listing gives no model. Steyr-Puch of Graz, Austria, built the Fiat 500 under licence with its own engine, and the Haflinger, a tiny four-wheel-drive army truck of 1959 to 1974, 16,647 of them.
- Chevrolet with a record player
- the listing gives no year. In-car record players were a late-1950s American fashion; Chrysler's Highway Hi-Fi of 1956 to 1961 is the only factory-fitted one we know of, so this Chevrolet's is likely to have been added later.
What they made
The only 1930s Jaguar in Mathewsons' published results is a 1936 Jaguar SS sold for £15,000 on 25 June 2026, months after the other series 14 sales, so we do not yet treat it as the car in this episode. Three Golf GTIs went through the saleroom between November 2025 and March 2026, so we hold that figure. No published result has been found for the Steyr-Puch or the Chevrolet.
Visit
The cars on Bangers & Cash are sold at Mathewsons' Pickering saleroom, and the Mathewsons museum and shop are in Thornton-le-Dale.
