Great mix - the C-type is one of my favourite cars of all time. Better looking than an E-type IMO!
A friend has an alloy-bodied Proteus that's very authentic. What's yours?
I haven't driven my M635 for a while due to the crap weather and salty roads and it's been a miserable time.
It always puts a big grin on my face and the exhaust note is something else!
I am planning to take it to a local retro cars meet next Wednesday evening in Sheffield.
A lovely 6 there mate, one of my favourites! Do you have details of this meet? I work in Sheffield and wouldn't mind taking a look.A friend has an alloy-bodied Proteus that's very authentic. What's yours?

The meeting is organised by the Motornutz.co.uk forum. It's held once a month at JD's Diner, Station Road, Ecclesfield, from 7.30pm.I'll be there on 23rd Feb, weather permitting, along with some other old Germans. Hope to see you there.
First Griff 500 a 96 Model. Stunning in Mallard Pearl Blue/Green with Doeskin Hide, a very rare Griff Colour.
Ex G/F and i Toured France , Rheims/Epernay and then on to The Black Forest in it in Aug 07. Never missed a beat, despite everyone telling me i was mad and that a Griff wouldnt even get us to Dover.
Sold to Germany in April 08. Was a Lovely Example.
Too many wheels in this thread
A couple of mine (well, the ones I use!):
1929 Velocette KTT Mk1. No kickstart, no silencer, no speedo and road legal (although unbelievably loud!) The old mans 1963 Velocette Venom in the background
Here she is at Mallory for the festival of 1000 bikes last year. Sadly she decided to drop all the oil out of the gearbox just as I pulled into scrutineering so I didn't make it on track. Other bike is my brothers 1928 Rex-Acme TT8.
1955 Triumph Thunderbird. I made a bit of a hole in the cases in Ireland last year but shes well again now!
The van all packed to go to Ireland last year. The seat poking up from the bottom is from my brothers Vincent Comet that went too.
Roll on the summer

Some wonderful cars on here, especially the Talisman, drove one many years ago and always wanted to own one along with a Rochdale Olympic - one day maybe but I am never selling this to get one! - Too much time and money invested and too rare for me to ever be able to find another - it's a keeper :-)
And here's one of the many reasons I love it...

The guy in the full on drag beetle didn't see that coming :-)
