Blue TVR Tuscan parked in Sandy station car park today. No wonder you chose to pay extra for Premier Parking with a car like that biggrin

On my run tonight I saw a black Cerbera in Arlesey and a red Griffith in Fairfield Park, anyone on here? I think I saw the same Cerb yesterday coming in to Hitchin but didn't catch the plate.

Can somebody explain how these rods pass an MOT with exposed wheels and no mudguards?
In my experience you have a set of mud guards in the boot and if your ever pulled (rarely) you offer to pop them on.

The Police normally will tug to look than throw the book.

Red NSX along the Gunnelswood Road in Stevenage earlier. At a glance, it looked to be a mid-late 90s car, but couldn't quite see.

Lots of classics out enjoying the sun on Saturday which was great to see.

Spent the afternoon at Panshanger aerodrome where there was a chap leaving in a green Griffith (I think) just after we arrived.

Saw that, felt sick inside.

Know exactly how it feels having to sit next to a mess of fibre glass waiting for recovery frown

Followed three Riley's through Eaton Socon earlier on the way to take bike for service. They all pulled in to a The George & Dragon car park.

I'm OK, thank you all. More importantly, I didn't hurt anyone else.

She broke away as I was coming off the roundabout, caught it, then she snapped the other way. Almost a 360 with a lamp post in the middle - Popular lamp post, found bits of red car and the light fitting was already broken.
Theory discussed with colleagues today is that I was lucky to hit the lamp post just as the car was heading sideways to the kerb - We reckon the impact lifted the car enough to stop it rolling over on the kerb.
Given that rollover protection would have been my face......

So I'm bloody lucky, really.

She was already a Cat C so this will probably be the end of her, but I'll hear later this week.

Glad you're not hurt.

It looks like a lovely car, I hope it can be repaired.

Sorry to hear about this, especially as you haven't had it that long, hopefully it is salvageable (cant see photos, work blocks them )
