Motor madness - Barnard castle

Post by hot66 »

Popped along to this show held at the jersey farm hotel ... 1st time it's been held , aim to raise funds for the owners rallycross racing

Got there early and there was an interesting mix of cars .... Big turn out of fords, bmws etc, but some interesting stuff too. Some good support from other local racers as well.

I was past Barnard castle today in the E. In fact I was down past your place James. Good job I didn't call in, you'd have been out!

I wondered what all the cars on the road were.

The temptation of a coffee would have been great. I was a bit pushed for time but it's a shame I never popped in. I was in Driffield and on the way back the road was awash with interesting cars including this one, anyone know what it is?

Difficult to tell from that (intentionally ?) small/fuzzy picture but it looks like an XK140 FHC ...
