Vintage power day turned out to be what they said on the tin. Small but full of flavour.
Lagonda 4500cc
Lancia torpedo x 2
Crossley saloon
Riley saloon
Alvis two seat sports
Sunbeam saloon
My old bus
and a landrover
As well as a selection of stationary engines, 1/4 scale steamer, tractor and others. Seemed to raise a nice sum of cash toward the watermill fund and a good day was had.
