My FH5 Log: "WE WON JUNK CARS, WE DRIVE A LOT"

There's an old Donut Media saying that I've been reminded of, "WE BUY JUNK CARS, WE PAY A LOT. DEPENDING ON THE YEAR THO". Here in the Forza Horizon 5's Donut Media collaboration series update, I've won some "junk cars" and I've driven them a lot, depending on my style, tho. So, what are the "junk cars" I'm talking about?


There's the Morris Mini Traveller that I won from the Storm Season Playlist. Launched in 1961 and produced until 1969, this two-door estate derivative of the Mini features double "barn-door" style rear doors fit for utilitarian purposes. High-end models of the Traveller featured wood inserts of the rear body. Under the hood, the Morris Mini-Traveller is powered by an 850cc 4-cylinder engine producing a small 45hp of power and it is capable of reaching a top speed of just 70mph.


After that, there's the Ford Super Deluxe that I won from the Dry Season Playlist. Known as the last of the all-wood-bodied cars before the steel transition at the end of the 1940s, the Super Deluxe's V8 engine produces a small 90hp of power.


Lastly, obtained from the Hot Season Playlist, is the Morris Minor Series II Traveller. The estate version of the Series II Morris Minor features a varnished wood frame for the rear bodywork with double "barn-door" style rear doors.



These three "junk cars" were woody cars. When you take them for a joyride, you'll know that such wooden presence has never gone out of style if you catch my drift. Speaking of which, let's take this trio of woody cars for a joyride if it pleases me. Roll the tapes.




They may be wooden but they sure know how to party.

Man, judging by the mood from the producers, looks like another wave of "junk cars" coming to Forza Horizon 5 after this Donut Media collaboration. Lots of "junk cars" are incoming, so be prepared to want one if you really are.

Hit us up, producers. As the Donut boys would say, "WE BUY JUNK CARS, WE PAY A LOT. DEPENDING ON THE YEAR THO".
