Series 2, episode 3 went out on Yesterday on 20 February 2020. Anglophile Derek makes a rare trip abroad to France to fetch a Bentley S3, and struggles with the language along the way. Back at the auction, a well restored Ford Fiesta XR2 lights up the sale, and a Mini Moke makes a rare appearance. It is an episode that takes the team well beyond its usual collecting grounds.
