Decent show that 👍 being originally from Bedfordshire but now living on the Surrey/ Hants border i decided it might be a good idea to book my 49 Chevy truck in to it. What a torturous day ( yeah 5.7 V8 but still got the old farm axle running the show at the rear ) M3/M25/M1.... pulled up for driving too slowly 35-40 & told to leave at next available exit and use A roads. A5 boiled up. Arrived 10.15 " sorry too late for entry ( not after 10 ) explained my plight and was allowed in...won 2nd prize in commercial section. Torturous journey home via H.Wycombe - Bracknell and all points south. That was 10 years ago haven't been back. I'll get that highway diff in 1 day 😊
Looks like a nice little car show. But i'm sorry Jim i have to pick you up on that lovely Rover, you said it was a P6 but it was of course a P5, one of my favourite classic cars. Couple of lovely Triumph motorcycles there, I really must get stuck in and sort out my old Triumph 500 get the engine back in and back on the road. There's a little Steam and classic car show on near me tomorrow so i'll probably pop along for an hour or two.
That was a bit of a trip down memory lane for me lol. I knew a girl who had an MG Roadster, and then decided to get a Moggy Minor instead. Dunno why tbh. Then there was the Tiger Cub. One of my mates used to blat around on one of those ( it was a bit tattier than that one though lol ). I also knew someone who had an Anglier. My Aikido instructor's mother had one of those 2'8 injection Capris. She thought it was quick . Not against my not entirely standard 750 Kawasaki it wasn't lol. Upset her a bit that did. And I used to own a real Mini thou. Fun little cars they are. I was a bit sad not to see any Triumph Heralds though. My sister had one ( until she stuffed it into a lamp post that is ),and so did I. Great little cars tbh. So easy to work on. I could go on, but this is already turning into an essay, so I won't. 🤣
@@jim.m75 I had a 125 Bantam too, ex GPO. Wish I`d kept that one. More reliable, unless it rained when water would go down the HT lead into the alternator!
