A beauty! A mate a College years ago had one... well his Dad did. We had a mental drive >:D... Probably better than stealing the JPS Lotus Esprit his dad had... think it was a gift from Lotus when his dad got the handshake.  :o

For me, it is the MGA as usual, which passed it's MOT yesterday - that's the car in the middle, flanked by the Gary's Frog and Bill's Abingdon thoroughbred MG stablemate - for anyone with sight difficulties, they are the cars behind the babes .....on the basis that the Hawaiian tropic girls appear not to be there this year, we're rather hoping that the Flux Babes will reprise this recent picture taken at Marham.................

Going practical also this year, it will be looking a bit different though when I arrive in Le Mans. ;)

This film should be played at high volume, so don't come complaining about it! And who the hell is Steve?

I'll be in the Elise again this year.........but I will remove the protective winter coat of grime before the off.




And another of our party will be in the always spotless SX.



Le Mans is for the week......not just 24hrs!

Plan A (who am I kidding actually - me, a plan !!!) was to take the Giulia GT.



But it's still in bits.

Plan B - take Darth, the GTA



But the fuel bill would be crippling and it isn't much of a load carrier !

Plan C - see if AR would lend me a 159 Q4 like they did for the Lombard Revival and RAC - again, but they were having non of it after the colour the last one came back !!!



Plan D - go in Dr.S's Vito, seems like a great idea on reflection !!!

PS, the Giulia will be going to the classic next year and then over the Alps to Milano for the centenary celebrations.

To attach a JPG file it has to be below a certain size (so some high res pics will need downscaling - which is good otherwise they often exceed the visible screen size and cause sideways scroll bars). As you are posting, click the Additional Options button and you can add the file there. it will then be uploaded onto the CA server - may take a short while on a slower connection.

Or, as many of the above has done, upload your picture to a web site and copy the address in between the words
