It's about a guy collecting military hardware including vehicles.

The material is basically interesting - especially regarding the Harley Davidson with its crazy clutch lever on the same side of the handlebars as the throttle, and the Schwimmwagen.

But it's being spoiled by a really irritating main presenter with his cockney accent - apparently de rigeur on programmes about old vehicles (Philip Glenister, Mike Brewer etc, anybody?), and also by the amount of time they waste on trivial periphery.

The amount of money people are asking for old military stuff is astounding.yikes
