It looks lovely
say hello to Mike from me if you see him

Will do of course!

Those little girls who shouted ‘faster, daddy, faster’ from the back seat of that lovely Bahia red T will be all grown up now……………

No, silver - it's Gary's car before it was restored back to its original colour ...

Good spot - I think we are both right, because that looks like Mike’s old chatreuse RS in front of Gary’s …..

I thought that black car might have been my old 2.8 twin-plug which is what I took on that tour :




.

Both left hand drive….

Looks like the car in the pic has a chrome door handle, but am only looking on my phone so could be mistaken. Any other ‘spot the difference’ features?

I thought that Mike was in his '67 S on that trip but now have vague recollections of Brendan driving it - so Mike would have been in his RS.

Visual differences would have been black window frames on my car (changed to bright anodised versions after the trip)) & no bumper trims on my car.

It was Gary’s silver now lovely viper green I was meaning. Good spot.

It is my RS and Brendan was driving my 67S that trip.

Scary how time passes.. I can’t recreate this pic without the use of two cars to get there. Little one on the left now owns his own house, one on the right second year at Uni…

You’re right, crazy how time has flown

Just recovering from the VSCC 'Measham' night rally. 180 miles of plot-n-bash grid ref navigation....started at 830pm last night, finished st 6.30 am this morning. Small roads in Herefordshire and Shropshire. Av speeds (depending on class) varying between stages 22mph to 27mph....a lot of fun, I was nav in a 1925 Frazer Nash, in Trophy Fast class, no prizes but a strong satisfying finish.
The Trophy Invitation class was won by this lovely '59 T5 356 B Super in Slate Grey....seen here at the finish, it was gleaming at the start!
