We made the 300-mile trip to Ipswich to attend the East Coast Retros Sunday meet. They usually meet of an evening during the summer months at The Rose, Shotley. Find them on Facebook.
Some great cars at the show! Ford Capri in Mk1, 2 and 3 form, A V8-powered Anglia, American Cop Cars (many Crown Victorias), an Opel Rekord, a Ford Taunus 20M RS, Volvos, Volkswagens, the Fiat X1/9 I'd driven the previous week in Wales, a Triumph Dolomite Sprint and 2000s, Rover P4 and P6, Austin Farinas in various sizes and some deliciously retro modified vehicles.

Hubnut - probably the only channel where the presenter shows more of an interest in a Ford Fiesta Popular than the Ford Escort Cosworth next to it... this is why I love this channel, its so relatable to my own feelings of fast fords.... they're very nice in their own way but I have no feelings towards cars that many people forget where out the reach of most and were probably better left as a bedroom poster. You just can't relate to them. I'm glad that there is a growing opinion that everyday cars like for example the Fiesta MK1/2/3s are getting more positive attention verses than ever before! That's the future of these cars safeguarded.

I think he said 2012 because of my car being on a 62 plate which is a late 2012, ironically it is illegal to have a newer plate on an older car. This countries dvla, our version of dmv, is just a stupid illogical group like they will destroy the original title which you have to send to them to register. So its become a challenge now to try and get a copy of the title done so i can keep it with the car.

Blues Brothers (the original), is a great watch. It has a ridiculous car chase and some great tunes. It's perfectly family friendly too, the smut is minimal & all the bad-guys crawl away from their accidents (as they did in the 80's). Avoid the sequels like the plague.

My parents owned a slightly rough but reliable 1986 D reg 2.2i CD auto in navy blue in the mid 1990s. The torquier 2.2i engine replaced the 2.0i in 1985. Loved that car, had driven it a few times after I passed my driving test. Wall to wall velour inside and so comfortable. Velour upholstery ought to make a comeback.
