Excellent event. Nice to see that Corolla GT AE86, they were great cars.

Nice pics, a hardy bunch given the temperature.

Indeed.

Saw a chap in a topless 1930's Bentley driving south down the M25 past J12 early Sunday about 9.15am all wrapped up, but was going in the wrong direction to be going to Bicester Heritage at that time of morning.......and I would guess, far too early to be on his way back, unless, he had been on his way and picked up a problem turned around and was now on his way home.....

Great pics Roy, looks like some interesting machinery there. Unfortunately I had a family "do" in Somerset no way I could consider it.

Possibly on his way to William Metcalfe's open day down the (old) A3.

Freezing bloody cold on the M40 with the top down.

My only concession was to have the windscreen up rather than just an aeroscreen.

Here's my car of the day:



1934 Invicta Low Chassis S-Type 4½-Litre Drophead Coupé

Great pictures Roy.

That Riley Sprite has captured my heart. Every time I go to Bicester I have to go and see it. It is a perfect vintage car in my opinion...unrestored but in fabulous working condition. I just love it!

I missed the Invicta so thanks for capturing it. Again, a wonderful car.

However, growing up in the 60s there were three cars I wanted to go home with...one was the Aston DB4 Series 2 in your pictures (it appeals so much more than the obvious DB5), the second was the restored Gordon Keeble in the background of one of your shots and the third was the belting silver Lamborghini Espada.

Thanks again for the link to the pictures.

Did anyone get a pic of the rather down-at-heel Austin 1300GT in dark blue ?
