Not a car, I know but, who has seen a cheese bus before? Wallace & Gromit eat you heart out!

Re: Classic cars on the road
Nice to see this old war-horse out and about and in the course of restoration (apparently new suspension as it was ‘riding high’) In 1975 I owned a 1972 Daimler version in special order Aston Martin olive green with a tan interior. A real looker and so comfortable. A revelation for the era. It cost me £2500 and in 13 months ownership it cost a further £1100 in maintenance and repairs culminating in one of the petrol tanks rusting through. In a four year old car! Like Jensens I think the gremlins and bad design elements have been dealt with by owners over the years.

Re: Classic cars on the road
I am afraid very definitely not on the road. I was at a car show hosted by a local garage, with all the usual muscle cars and a smattering of more interesting cars. This Bentley was in the garage's graveyard still managing to look very stately despite its dilapidated condition.

It’s so sad to see these cars so comprehensively neglectedwitkowski wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 3:25 pm I am afraid very definitely not on the road.

In 1980 this was my daily driver (A different time with different habits)
Yesterday I came across the old girl in a very sorry state for sale in Beverley Hills so the process of neglect still continues.

That red thing is mine Richie.
Got fed up of all the women flocking toward the Volvo 240 and sold it.

Re: Classic cars on the road
Just as well you don't have one of these then Stu that I remember being advertised in the Viz in the early 90s.
So this would be a classic now too...
Did the Satsuma Lawnmower and Dangerous Toy Company make any other cars I wonder?

Re: Classic cars on the road
One beetle that drove in our class at the Lenzerheide Classic had a Subaru engine fitted I think I know the owner (Zurich is a small town), I'll ask him
