Yes, that's where I saw it.
Still a lot of money for something that's not VSCC eligible so limited possibilities ...

Both figures are ludicrous! It's an Austin 7 Ffs. For 60k you could get a real, original sports model, probably a really good one too......
It may be possible to run this in 750mc racing......

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
Love it - would have preferred it built as a two-seater, but great fun and would be OK on the hills or at sprints. However, £60K is a bit optimistic...

This could be a more cost effective option, turning an old MX5 into an Alfa Tipo 148. https://tipo184.com/?fbclid=IwAR2YRb2Sk ... UasuAjkkiM

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
The view from our paddock this afternoon. It's normally green fields as far as the eye can see, but has flooded regularly right back to the days when King Alfred burned the cakes in Athelney, where the cottages in the distance are.

Luckily at the moment it is under control and doing no harm, so we can appreciate the beauty, unlike poor Bootsy and many others ........
