To keep with the van theme... I saw this yesterday in Neath.
In fact, I see it often but I've never been able to take a pic before.

Slightly more glamorous than a van, I just saw this mixing it with the rush hour traffic in Newport whilst picking my better half up from work...

I think it's one of the new ones in 'production'
A snip at £2.75m + fees to make it road legal.

Seems like rush hour in Newport is the place to see classics, with a Jensen connection today
A big Healey, which today looks remarkably small.

Here's one for you.

Not classics at the time but back to 1985. Scene totally changed now.

Reading in the sun.

Just alongside this at the lights in newport.
Reminded me of the one in the same colour (with webasto roof) when I was in my early 20s. As was the lad driving this.
Great looking cars. Great sounding too.

Aurelia B20?

I thought the pedestrian had a large bow and arrow!

About the car hopefully, not the archer.

I think a B20 turned up at an Ace cafe day, pre covid. Very valuable but not widely known in this country.
