Spotted this green goddess in the tiny village of Lympstone

East Devon. Must be hell to drive in those lanes ...

Travelled to London and back today. Saw surprisingly few classics... a couple of camper vans, a nice Porsche 928, a beaten up Montego (classic?) towing a horse box, an old Volvo, a Citroen H Van... but as i was driving i only managed to take a pic of this Merc in Putney.
