Show us the last picture you took on your phone. (VW related or not!)

... although, tbf, we had a series of "Inbetweeners" Cinquecentos and they were all great .... You'd expect they're all oxide by now but they galvanised them

 

pah! It’s pretty reliable (touch wood) drove to Southern Spain and back with slightly leaking master cylinder (topped up regularly) a hose split but was repaired and a shocker went in France on our way back but we got home fine

 

20v Turbo...less than 500 on the road now

 

Of all the people I know you are 1 of about half a dozen that has so far escaped. Everyone else has had it. Good job avoiding it so far.

 

I will get completely over excited if we spot another one

 

Met up with a German pilot who is down here in Bassano Del Grappa flying and travelling around in this V8 American baby (I think he said it was a 5l). Really good sized camper....nicely laid out, with a 'bit' more room than our babies, but not too big.

 

5.7 V8
painful at the pump...

 

I ran away before he had finished chatting to all the people he met on the way...

 

Was watching latest episode of Bangers and Cash and what do I see...but a pale blue Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo.

 

This is the last on my phone after a lovely day at Goodwood Revival celebrating my dad’s 70th

The cars of his youth were Mini’s, Anglia’s and Lotus Cortina lookalikes, a few lambrettas and his current Series II Landy… so he was in his element.

Throw into the mix my brother and I being VW and Porsche fans the only disappointing part of the day was a parade of Ferraris around the track!! They were headed by the 911 safety car so even that display retained some interest!

A few other pics…











Got a bit of a hankering for sideways Mini action as well… the midlife crisis is rumbling away nicely!

 

A few more from Goodwood










Slightly overwhelmed by how many companies are converting Classics to electric, why?
The company’s might be converting clients cars even though they’re not particularly happy about do it , and the conversation here is wait for synthetic fuels

Mini v Jag is always worth watching around Goodwood..

 

Indeed. We caught one of the practice sessions early on - a mix of Minis, Cortina’s, and two American continents on wheels. Very interesting watching them navigate the last corner before the chicane in their own different ways!
