Am I right in thinking that's the old clock garage at Coleshill?

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Above:
I have seen many vids of the roads in the USA around the 20's-30's and many were just dirt tracks, rutted and mud baths, so the above looks very sensible!

With our salty roads there may be a case for their return in the UK!

Certainly get a great variety of cars for the Pomeroy
In 2019 a mate of mine who I co-drive for, lent Simon Diffey his rally Escort for the Pomeroy. I believe he did quite well

He won it, in some style iirc
For me the Pom will always be associated with Simon and James (Diffey), both mates, both great, both sorely missed. W
