Maybe it's because i'm under 50 but i've never seen the appeal of these.It's is not too late to educate yourself.
I drive past this Scimitar a couple of times each week and I don't recall seeing it move much, if at all, over the last few months so I'm not sure if it should be on this thread or the other one about classics rotting away.
Anyway, it is in between Nantwich and Newcastle under Lyme.
(I happen to think Scimitars look really cool even now)

Cooling system is very good... runs the original radiator and viscous fan. Only time it's ever got too hot for my liking was Easter Sunday a few years ago, sat in a queue for 90 minutes to get into wheels day. I bottled it, spun round and got some air up her.Mine was original when I had it, but 30 years ago ... When they were mostly a bag o' ste
