Title: Classics "Drive It" day last Sunday

Any owners with classics on here get out and about?

We got the Mog out for the first proper run this year :o

Nice ride!
Thats what all that was about, I had no idea. Saw quite a few MG's and such bombing about Marlow being driven by the living dead.
If I had, I would have put a huge Scottish flag on the top of ma Scorp and driven about blasting really heavy music and being really obnoxious to the pims crowd;D

lol ;D

Tis a 1966 so just over 40 years old, got a few subtle mods underneath to make it a bit more useable.

Nothing like the sound of the exhaust on over run down a quiet country lane 8)

Except maybe a 24v Scorpio above 4000rpm :D

Yeah, its been lovely here. Been sorting the exhaust system and changing oil on another car this afternoon though.

Well I spent 30 mins changing the oil and the rest of the time clearing up the slick on the driveway ;D
