Re: Selling via Collecting Cars auction ...
I sold my 1952 Aston Martin DB2 on there late last year, so I wouldn’t agree that it’s necessarily only suited to more modern cars. Very happy with the process and the sale went through smoothly - the photographer they organised, (I now have some superb pics as a memento), mid auction communication ...

Re: Change of name from DDK to Caterham Fan Boy Club (CFBC)
Recently took delivery of a new factory built 420R. Waited 6 months for delivery and I couldn’t be happier. Absolutely bloody love it! Sensational in the true sense of the word and totally connected to the world around you…sights, sounds and smells. https://i.postimg.cc/c4n7k8v8/802-BC11-B-E49-D-45-...

Re: Caterham ( or not )
Having recently gone in the opposite direction and sold a (similarly vintage) Aston Martin DB2 in order to buy a Caterham, I’d have to say keep the Caterham. The Aston, like an XK, is beautiful to look at and an undoubtedly special car. But it’s 50s technology, it’s heavy and it’s just not especiall...

Re: Non Porsche - First Motorsport Event of the Year Cooper
I was there in my 63 Cooper as well. Was a fun day...slightly disjointed and a bit too much hanging around with the filming that took place over lunchtime but at least they gave us an extra run to make up for it! Interesting conditions throughout the day but the cross plies loved it! Not sure it rep...

Re: Non P: Hunt’s A35
As a van it wouldn’t be eligible to convert into an Academy racecar. And it looks like it would be an expensive start point anyway (and would be a shame to engineer away its history). To be honest, the finished race cars aren’t worth much these days. The days of A35 grids at Goodwood are long gone s...

Re: Mille miglia
Excellent, enjoyed watching, we are booked for the 11 may for a week to this year to have a nose around. Thinking may have a crack at 2020. Organising a viewing on a 356a that might fit the bill. Hi I'd be cautious about buying a car just based on its eligibility. Dealers advertise cars as Mille Mi...

Porsche Books
Hi A couple of Porsche Books for sale. It's been hard to price these as prices seem to vary wildly online but hopefully these are realistic. If you think I've underestimated them, obviously I'd be delighted if you'd tell me before purchasing. Equally, if I'm way over, then do let me know and we can ...

Re: Bristol's Queen Square Breakfast Club
Dammit Jeremy...I go every month but the one time you head down there unannounced and I've decided to give it a miss! It's a great little event - I've been going since 2011 (my office is in Queen Square) The event has changed a lot over the years...used to be more focussed on old classics but now it...
