DKW Schnellaster Kombi (two-stroke engine).

Shame, pal of mine was close to buying that. Looked like a fun project.

Just back from the 2017 rallye de Fougeres.

Nice little event and I was passenger in the wife's 1930 Lagonda.

Coolest Car spotted was a Lorraine Dietrich.

I'm guessing quite rare and this actual car won the Le Mans race in 1926. Great to see it used on the French roads over the 3 day event.

Very rare Fiat 850 being transported somewhere earlier. Not this one but the same colour. Can't be many around.

I saw a lovely red TR5 in Odiham today. Proper gleaming in the sunshine it was.

Any more information on the Porsche? It's not a body kit I recognise, but looks well done. It's the right era for Strosek, but I'm not sure it's quite their style.

No ,it's quite an old pic that I finally managed to upload onto the pc.

After further research it does appear to be a Strosek 944. It looks smart!

One of seven Swizz registered Morgans seen earlier this week at Toddington in Gloucestershire...

Near Stoke on Trent this morning

Newcastle under Lyme this afternoon

Very original looking 280SL looking like it's about to be getting some TLC judging by the boxes of spares I spotted in the cabin and boot.




Dolly looked in good nick - not sure about the Minx

Edit - sorry that's a Sunbeam Rapier, right?

Interesting to see an ex-police 2500pi on an R plate. Production of the pi stopped in June 1975 to be replaced with the 2500S so assuming that is an original plate it would have been hanging around for more than 14 months before being registered. I remember hearing that the police took some old stock pis long after the end of the production run - maybe this is one of them.

You can have it if you wish - I drove past it again today and it now has a for sale sign in the window.
