Nice pair.
Would be a greater picture without the van in the background though.

Lovely pair of classics. Great comparison between the US & UK styles of the period. Which is yours? Totally different style of driving as you can imagine. The Etype is a perfect car though tight for 6.2" me. I cannot imagine how utterly awesome these must have been in their day, even by todays standard they are so easy to drive.
The Vette on the other hand with it's massively torquey 427 V8 on relatively skinny tyres is far less connected. Great fun trying to tame the beast. I love it for all it's American brashness
Oddly number 4 is the one i'd be most reluctant to part with Martin350 said:
I was talking about it with the guy who trailered it home for me.
He moves a lot of classic cars about and he reckoned mine was so good because there was lots of wood lying around the car in the previous owner's garage, which he reckons absorbs moisture and helps keep it off the car.
I have no idea if that's true, but there could be something in it, I suppose..?

Acquired a gorgeous little TR6 at the weekend, so was a good excuse to have all the classics out the garages, and together on the drive...
Stag, TR6, Jensen and the Beetle.
Great collection!Stag, TR6, Jensen and the Beetle.
Must be a difficult decision on a nice morning which one to take.

Not really – he'll obviously take the TR6.
Actually its the Beetle parked outside work today 
I don't fit in the TR6 - bit of a issue really, but to be expected at 6ft5. So that one is solely Dads runaround.
Edit... Thought I'd also add a photo of the latest member of the family. This one is so new it's not even home yet. 1963 original 1071cc Cooper S.

It's funny. I've always thought of the Interceptor as being quite a big car but it actually looks smaller than the Stag.

Well, as a Triumph fan, I'd take the Jensen!!

There this thing called perspective...It's funny. I've always thought of the Interceptor as being quite a big car but it actually looks smaller than the Stag.
But I know what you mean, there's an Interceptor I see quite frequently and it's not *that* big.
