"B" in the Greek alphabet is of course "Beta". The other car is a Quapri.

Re: Eddie Honda's wheels of steel (and occasionally alloy)
None of my insurance has gone up more than 5/6 percent, across Adrian Flux, some bunch up in Watford that Mrs Rocker has always used nor Peter James on the Morrises. I auto-renew as well, I can guarantee I would have ended up paying more on at least one of those policies had I shopped around as all ...

Re: Wobland Spottage
In complete contrast, I just walked past our local Co Op Funeral Director and they have their latest acquisition outside (or maybe a demo, I dunno). Stretched "Mustang" badged Mach E SUV thing, I take it perpetrated by Coleman-Milne. Too bleedin ugly to take a picture of and in fact I had ...

Panther Rio....Dollop-of-shite in a party frock with Granny's eyes. Nice to see, though, I don't think I've clapped eyes on one since the 1975 Motor Show.

Serendipity indeed....I usually find stuff like that after I have paid retail for it.

Re: What did you do today?
I was like that until I got a tape dispenser. Having a 3lb weight on the end of the tape also dissuades me from hurling it at the sideboard.

Re: I seem to of done something stupid yet again
Always feel that P5s are something to be enjoyed from afar. Lovely old things but not for me. A mate, whose credentials with old motors pre-date mine - when I was swanning about in Mk2 Grannies in the 90s he was commuting in a Mk1 Consul - ended up with a nice but utterly doomed 3 Litre Coupe. It ne...

Re: Austin A70 Hampshire
That Hereford Coupe is superb! Austin really did have some line-up throughout the 1940s, in complete contrast to the likes of Rover and Standard with their one model policies - even Ford, Morris and Vauxhall only fielded offerings in two sectors of the market. Admittedly, Morris had a bigger version...
