Yes, the Boro ... I see it most days as the guy leaves it outside the front of his house and it's just down the road from me.

Pic taken at about 7.30am Sunday morning so I think he must have been offto a show in it. It was outside all winter!

If it's in view in Lynchwood mate, I'll try to get a snap of it - which car park though - haven't got all day ... !

Peterborough? Nice to see a classic spotted out and about...
Initially, I thought that was 'catching some air'! hehe

Some highlights from the Bolnhurst Show yesterday. Another very interesting and varied display of cars, tractors and classic commercials smile -

Big soft spot for GT V8s and that one looks superb! Very lovely indeed.
Me too yes

I've owned 2 of them in the dark and distant past - this has got me hankering after another one now.

Spotted this in Beirut on the weekend. Was quite intrigued by the air filter position.

Very nice. £10k plus for a decent one, no?

Very nice LBS.
My father had two rubber bumper V8s consecutively in about '76. Tahiti Blue and Flamenco Red respectively. My brother and I, then both young children, would often be bundled into the back seats for a Sunday afternoon 'burn' through the Surrey countryside. Lovely memories smile
Have loved that burbling V8 ever since....

Do it!
I got one last year and haven't regretted it at all!

It is the ultimate 'poor man's Aston' IMHO...

Interesting 80's 'pornstar chic' Corniche yesterday... (p.s that 996 in the background was spotless and lovely)

A bit behind th etimes but saw these at PVS (Performance Vauxhall Show) a couple of Sunday's ago. The Firenza in Gulf colours had raced against 'Gerry Marshall' in little Bertha on noe occassion. The Viva ios a good replica of one of Gerry's other cars and regularly does hill climbs and sprints in the South of England I was told. All of the owners of these cars were extremely friendly and loved sharing the information and history of the cars.
