A while back someone mentioned a UK produced DVD that follows the restoration of a car (I forget what it was, but it was RED :D )

What was the DVD called and what was the link to the website selling it?

A Car is Reborn, with Mark Evans, is a great series as are the others he's done. It includes classic tests and is well worth watching. However, he did spend over EIGHTY FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS restoring his E-type!!! A Racecar is Born is also very interesting and has a surprising amount of stuff relative to minis, including his initial forays into motorsport via autocross/gymkhanas and gets well whipped by the minis of course.
