quicksilver Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I guess most of you fine folks will be at Shitefest, but for those who aren't is anyone planning to go to this in Stony Stratford tomorrow? There's usually a very good turnout and we should be there bright and early with the Maxi. http://www.classicstony.co.uk/ RayMK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayMK Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I remembered your post this morning and, on the spur of the moment, my son and I dashed over in the Tipo - it is our regular transport, not an exhibit. I took my mobility scooter in anticipation of parking on the outskirts but we luckily found a space quite near the action. I looked out for a Maxi and only spotted a nice maroon one - was that yours? As always, there was a huge variety of vehicles. Most enjoyable. If and when I get my camera's sd card next to my rickety Asus upstairs, I'll upload some photos. This Macbook Pro is ultra reliable but does not have a USB port or a card reader. The Asus has both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayMK Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Photos:-Makes and models are probably obvious to most (i.e. I'm a lazy sod) but the small green car had a Simca badge - not a car I've seen before, the dark blue sporty job was a Jowett and the large maroon soft top was a Lagonda. richardmorris, Six-cylinder, danthecapriman and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quicksilver Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 Good to see so many people looking at the Maxi. I recognise most of those cars but didn't see that Vanguard estate. The green one appears to be a Simca-built Fiat Topolino (I did see it but for some reason didn't get a closer look or a photo) and the big red drophead is a 1955 Lagonda 3-litre - I liked that and would take it over a Rolls or Bentley any day. Some photos from me: Septic-spec SM with weird lights. There were two SMs there!1972 Citroen SM by Adam Floyd, on Flickr 1972 Iso Rivolta Lele IR6 by Adam Floyd, on Flickr This looks a mean bit of kit.

Six-cylinder Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 The Visa in the last post is a 652cc Twin and while it may look a similar colour to my 17RD is not quite the same with a different paint code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
