I doff my hat to you Sir! My Pop had a fully prepared MK 1 Escort as a family car when I was a kid. My folks rented a house in the middle of knowwhere and I remember many a trip down to the local shops with me in […]

It’s OK mate you can get another cuddle next time we meet..both meets we’re crazy busy. I’m sure if the weather was less Clement it would have been a whole other story. Queuing was insane at Brooklands and a simil […]

What a cracking event I think I preferred it to Brooklands attended the previous Sunday with Tony. I loved the exploratory nature of the event. You never knew what was parked inside or behind the next building. It […]

Now I have the Scimitar on the radar. Thank you Anders! The bloody things are everywhere. I saw half a dozen scattered around the Brooklands New Years Day Event. I can’t seem to get the smell of an old fish tank o […]

What an eclectic range of old metal. Fabulous in what seems to be the perfect setting. The multi coloured Porsche raised an eyebrow and the lime green Piper made me tingle a tad. I shall be adding this […]

Well done Tony, a great read. This is what owning a Classic Car is all about for me.

I believe my newly purchased, 18 year old, Honda Prelude 2 litre (Non VTEC) version would have fitted in quite nicely there. A Japanese itch I’ve had for a while, well and truly taken care of. I was tempted by a […]

A lovely sunny weekend (for the most part) ‘up North’. I can see why Anders likes it so much up here in the Peaks. Truly stunning landscape which we barely scratched the surface of. As well as the brilliant org […]

Toyota Crown, Rover P6 Estate hmmmmmmmm lovely. I recognise some of the cars from a couple of years ago when I visited the event. A beautifully eclectic show. I wonder if our ‘79 1500ti Alfasud would dissolve in t […]
