Re: Our cars
Hello, yes, they certainly are epic motor cars - what a stunning collection! I'm sure that at least one of them must have belonged to a vicar ;-0
P.S. Some of the topics seem to be permanently locked which only the site admin (Mr Duvel et al) would know about.

Re: Our cars
Certainly last time I looked, the 24 hour records still stood. Glad to see it's going to a good home, do you intend to "museum" it or get it back competing?
