Not totally non Porsche, but believe it or not I owned this 1934 MG PA in the sixties and amazingly I caught it up on the road yesterday. Turns out it’s only on its second owner since I sold it and the chap in the photo bought it from the widow of the first. It’s never been more than three miles away and It has a supercharger now.
