3xDS, a 2cv and a 'light 15' within 25 miles of each other on the M1 going South this evening. Must have been a Citroen gathering up North.
Oh and about 50+ 'rare' (

)TR5s at Malvern. Some TR owners should look up the word rare.
Good weekend though.

Lol..................exactly what Dave Harvey and I said last year at Harrogate. Would love to know how many genuine TR5's survive.

I've got a "rare" 5 in my garage, and it will be at the IWE next year and I know mine is genuine, although it is a little like my grandfather's axe! - with all the replacement parts, but it does have history back for the last 30 years or so, and I have the original owner's details.

Yes Amanda and I have seen it at your house, superb colour and just needing a little more time to finish off. With the rate you work at Mike, a steady afternoon really

Colin.

Was a couple of cars behind one of these today, and not a particularly mint example !

An 'H' reg Ford Zodiac desperately in need of a wash and tlc, I honestly cant remember the last one I saw away from a show !
I was first (and last) a passenger in one of these circa 1969. The UKAEA ran a fleet of these in dark green (very smart) with uniformed lady drivers (even smarter !) and as apprentices we could use them on occasions between sites if we didn't have our own transport.
