It's all generational. As someone who was born in the 80s, grew up in the 90s and passed their test in the early 00s, my view on cars will be dictated by that. To me 80s cars were the crap bangers, 90s performance was cool older and 00s performance was cool modern. Those born a decade/generation or...

When I bought the Mayflower it was advertised as having had £7k spent in 2022. I assumed for that it would have had a full engine rebuild, but no. The bulk of that seems to have been fitting the new wiring loom, balancing the propshaft and rebuilding the distributor. No idea what the labour rate is ...

Kicking myself for missing out on the Practical Classics 3500 Auto auctioned at the NEC today. Guided at £5-7k and sounded OK. It was Lot 1 and proceeds to charity. Fucker only made £4125 even with premium that’s a cheap car. I’m going to the NEC tomorrow but apart from a load of scrap Range Rovers...

Just a cover car I think, done by some amateur restorer and featured in the mag.

Love that James, that’s bloody lovely.

I can't remember to be honest. Possibly two.

You're obviously not familiar with the area.

Took the Mayflower for a lovely run up through the Lincolnshire Wolds to Horncastle and back, as the weather was dry. It ran fantastically and even managed to tackle a few hills. It really wasn’t as bad as I was expecting! 39472EE8-AC59-4852-9309-B98521DDD460.jpeg 2A719EB5-C45E-4AE5-A5CD-17B749CBAE6...

Snaffled a cheap used steering rack on ebay for £40 delivered. I thought I could use it as an exchange unit to save on the time it's marooned on the ramp. Actually, it feels bloody good with no play and no leaks. I'll compare it to the old one once it's off and if the old one feels worse, I'll stick...
