Good show, but is it legal? 41/2 litre weights about ton-and-a-half, so would have thought does a stripped Continental plus that trailer....?
There's a great long bar in Rock & Roll heaven.......

Well, someone should call the Manufacturer, Bentley Motors Ltd at their Cricklewood Headquarters for the Manufacturer's towing weight limits for that model.mercrocker wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 9:47 am Good show, but is it legal? 41/2 litre weights about ton-and-a-half, so would have thought does a stripped Continental plus that trailer....?
Ask the Telephonist to be put through to either Mr H. M. Bentley or Mr W. O. Bentley.

Re: Found pics
Forgotten sights of the late 20th Century.....Publican's Merc.
Easily recognised by its prime position outside the boozer, together with chrome arches and missing star mascot. Probably wearing 560SEL badges regardless of spec.
Probably long gone now....the pub certainly is which is a shame as it was a nice example of mid-Victorian suburban planning situated at the end of two similar terraces. Demolished in 2012 for ratbox housing - authorised by the same Council who probably kicked up about retaining the sash windows a few years earlier.....
Things like this seem as distant a memory now as a Sunday Meat Draw. No wonder I get grumpier with every passing year of Century 21.

One of my locals has a meat drawer & the prize is whatever the landlord purchased off the shop lifters visiting the local Asda.

Round Southampton in the old pre-container days it was whatever a dockie got down the leg of his overalls on a Friday afternoon.....Probably best not to buy a ticket on a hot weekend.

55 years ago today (6 August 1965) the first Ford Transit rolled off a production line at Ford's Langley facility in Berkshire, England (a former Second World War aircraft factory which had produced Hawker Hurricane fighters).
