Re: Goodwood Revival 2021

Nice to see FF VRT again, i owned it for 7ish years in the early 2000's. It had stood in an underground carpark in Beaconsfield for 3 years due to its owner unfortunately loosing his life in a motorcycle accident and bought the car from his mother who was dealing with the estate. I spent many hours ...

Re: The dangers of Social Media spats - Gents. Express

A lot of work to put this one back on the road, i've seen better cars scrapped or squashed!.
Sebs original box ended up with my own SP when he had the 518 fitted.

Re: Various FFs & Interceptors coming up soon

The 67 FF chassis no 119/027 he has on his list for sale is an odd one, 027 is actually mine and has been for some while. Now MOT'd and parked in my garage last time i looked!.

Re: 1973 Jensen Healey Mark 1 For Sale

I'm no Healey expert but aren't those wheels the rare small slot type that were only fitted to the first few hundred cars?.

Andi perhaps your friend could take a pic for us, i ...
