Bargain Hunt

Details

The red and blue teams, headed by Raj Bisram and Stephanie Connell, hope to drive up profits by bargain-hunting in Newbury. Which items will they take to auction to be sold by auctioneer Thomas Forrester? Meanwhile, Caroline Hawley visits a museum in Basingstoke that houses an impressive collection of Thornycroft vehicles. The earliest item in the collection is a steam wagon, a forerunner of the company’s first motor car, which was built in 1903. Caroline is amazed to learn that it cost £400 to make – the equivalent of ten years’ wages for the ordinary worker!
