Funnily enough it did rain shortly after that picture was taken...lol

Have no fear though, it was back off again a little later (after emptying the boot of luggage again!)

Yes must think of a new name as well

Nice car.

Is that the Great Central Railway in the background? If so, you're local to me and Barreti.

Don't forget to come to the Growl.

Nice car
And you got the fastest colour too.

Welcome to the club, you do realise now you've got something not only as loud as a wedge but also jaw droppingly beautiful that you are going to be

a) the envy of ALL your friends
b) posing every time the sun comes out
c) gawped at by everyone as you drive past - roof down obviously
d) grinning like an idiot for er, YEARS !

Hiya

Yes that is the Great Central Railway in the background, i spent the day up there after picking the car up. They have the Green Arrow 4471 there at the moment, even got to go up into the cab

I live down in Bucks though so unfortunatly i'm not local, was just visiting for the day....

Yeh its a V2 although I believe its owned by the National Railway Museum. Its only recently (last three weeks) returned to running after a major failure of its motion, was touch and go for a while if it would ever run again and only the fact a spare connecting rod was found that had been kept as a souvenir. Its also now painted in Apple Green, so looks totally identical to the Flying Scotsman!
