Flushing the radiators in the lounge today.

This has disaster written all over it.

I'd repaint them whilst you're at it then.

Bought some Duchy Earl Grey tea. Disappointing.

Morning all. There's some banger racing on locally, might pop over and have a look. Not been for a couple of years so it'll make a nice change.

Had a nice morning at Goodwood and had a mini convoy with this.


Passenger gave me a nod of approval when I out braked him into a roundabout.
Out braked might be a bit exaggerated.

[Iva Barchetta]

I got the best parking spot again.




Next to a 458 and Challenge Stradale and behind 2 Huracans.

Good to see you're mixing in the right circles Iva your Barchetta seems to be a bit of an icon on the supercar circuit

[Iva Barchetta]

I've always been part of the supercar set.

Pass the Bolli........wot wot wot

[Bomma220]

Not sure about the Bollie chap - an old friend of mine has a Murcielago and he's partial to a drop of Absinthe (yes, really!)
Mind you, you'd probably need to be to buy one of those buggers in the first place...

There's a married couple who go to these events and Brooklands too,they have a Strada Abarth

and a Barchetta.

But whether they take one or both cars to whatever event ,they never leave their car unattended.

I find that quite odd ,they're only old Fiats after all.

I arrived today ,top down ,put some loose stuff in the boot ,took the key ,closed the door and walked away.

I occasionally people watched and saw appreciation of my sticker mess.....

Top marks Iva for studying them in detail waiting for them to leave their car unattended.

We'll be needing chaps like you on the next mission.

Goodwood in the a.m. Saw Iva's Barchetta. Didn't see Iva. Lancing seafront carshow in the p.m. Didn't see Iva or the Barchetta. Did see a Camaro 'vert at both though. Oddly

Iva at both shows looking inconspicuous and scanning for unattended vehicles.

[Nik da Greek]

I thought it was weird to walk part the same bush at both events, 20 miles apart

Are you sure that's what he's up to? He may be checking on McAndy's date, still not heard from the bugger since he went off...

Used to be a team over at Bovingdon in the 80`s who sign wrote the underside of their cars as they always seemed to get rolled.

One in particular slogan has stayed with me all these years......... I`ve seen Kate`s Bush!!

I went with a bunch to le mans and rolled the car we went in during some antics on an old abandoned karting track. The next year they screwed castors to the car roof (XJ6) to rub it in. 'Stards.

That's Not IVA, that's the French Rozzers on the way to Le mans!

Ha !

Rumbled, is it a coincidence I always take the 3rd week off in June ?.....

I make a fortune dressing up in my Gendarmerie outfit and stopping those crazy Eengleesh chaps.
