Bath registry office Saturday pm...we walked past just as that car pulled away with bride and groom supping shampers on the Jag's rear bench!

Small world!

The day previous I'd spotted a Ford GT up near The Circus but no camera to hand...

Much preferred it in grey and white (as posted earlier this month):

Oh man!

Think the gt is a local, seen it a couple of times. Just not quick enough on the draw.

It's a Register Office, though, isn't it?

When did these civil administrative places become Register Office[s]? They always used to be, and quite rightly too, Registrar Office[s]. They are the local offices of the government appointed registrar. To be registered sounds akin to being a number plate issued from our friends at DVLA, Swansea.

I think you'll find that the blonde lady is the male driver's wife and regularly drives historic Ferraris in her own right.

They are well known in classic Ferrari circles

will that not collect water, and then at some point crack dumping all the water into the fuel tank, potentially ruining the engine?!

906 Porsche being repainted in a little garage behind the supermarket. Apart from one big square on the roof autographed by Vic Elford. And a 308 Berlinetta also being repainted in the same garage.

Cannot recall the last time I saw a Lotus Europa on the road but a green one spotted on M40 today. Hope the breakdown was none too serious.
