The web site should be updated this evening or over the weekend and technically the details are embargoed until 8pm but you might as well be the first to have the news officially confirmed. The 100th anniversary of..................

Hmm, do I say it??????????

Thank god.  I was worried that it was a bunch of A4s, a couple of TTs and a DKW.  But if they've got a Pikes Peak Quattro, I'd have gone.

Well that's a relief, for a while there I thought it had to be the dreaded blue oval in the form of the Model T.

Must admit Morgan's centenary crept up on me and caught me out.

Termie threw me a bit with the mention of '..a car..', which kind of made me discount manufacturers in favour of a specific car model (back to the 'T' !!!)

Have to confess to having a bit of a soft spot for 'slightly eccentric' British craftsmanship, so will be well happy to visit St S again this year.

Staring you in the face all the time.

Lynx was obviously not enjoying this as much as I was. >:D

Tinkle, tinkle, PLONK!

That's the sound of the penny dropping  ;D

The clue was far too cryptic for me (and seemingly everyone else!)

Not much of an embargo, i was catching up on some reading this morning and the Jan issue (read December for that) of Classic Cars magazine talks about it ::)
Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green,  oh, that's not what you meant by green?
