outlaw118

Or this, appears to be an accessory for a BMW motorbike. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-R850RT-1100-Shit-lever-/171531724106?hash=item27f016654a
Laugh, I nearly shat.

Surprisingly not, although to be fair I don't go to many shows, and those I do I tend to wander off and look at the other cars instead of sitting behind mine and listening to comments. At Manchester, it got an overwhelmingly positive reception, most people love the fact that it shows its history. I think times are changing, where in the 1980s everything had to be over restored and shiny, now people appreciate patina more. You've got all these patinated vintage cars and hotrods, and no one bats an eyelid. The people in the Austin Counties Club seem thoroughly supportive as well, I suppose it's not like I'm slamming it and sanding the paint off.
 
I've only had two people tell me it needs restoring/repainting, and both were random members of the public (one old giffer at a boot sale, then some loudmouth in a petrol station). And did either of them even own any old cars? Nope. I just told them it's my car and I'll do what I like with it, thanks.
 
You might notice in the side pictures a load of scratches down the side. The one towards the bottom of the wing I did, but I spotted the others when I was at Margate, and I couldn't for the life of me work out how they'd happened. I thought someone had keyed it for a minute, but they're not that deep and I worked out it must have happened the day before, when I went for a trundle around the lanes and encountered a car coming the other way, so had to pull into the hedge to let them by. Now most classic owners would be distraught, and messing around with T-cut/getting bodyshop quotes. The beauty of a car like this is that I just don't need to worry. I use it in all weathers and it doesn't matter. She's a tough old girl.

I notice the bride isn't wearing gloves, she's probably had to put one over the distributor cap to get through that heavy rain shower.

What a brilliant idea for a wedding car. I mean, what self respecting bride doesn't want to arrive cramped up, smelling of burnt oil and thoroughly pissed off as she's two hours late because it rained 73 miles away and the stupid bastard thing didn't start?

Plenty of also-ran lurve for Viva and the not-quite-so-little A40 that belted along
 
 
            Always ensure you ding at the top of the slop  

Some cars, of distinquished age, prepared for depreciation-assured racing.  Of course, not much more to add but I've spent* over an hour swearing at the keyboard getting extra* photo hosting to work for your arses; pain is to be shared.  As Pillock put so succinctly, this track appeared to be way too large for the count of vehicles provided. It is a relief to announce there is after all plenty of space on our tiny island.  So this missed opportunity assures that Gumtree stocks are in repeal, very healthy and our concern.  There will be no apology for repeat photography as everyone else was hundreds of metres away enjoying the superb sunshine on our enlarged island  
                          

Not much to add which hasn't already been said/photographed but I hauled my camera round all day so you have to look at these.

A healthy dose of masochism is required to keep a P6 on the road. But race one? And a Maestro?

 
And some moar bent Jaguarness:

The only time I have ever been quite rude
(I'm ashamed to say) was a guy in the street who stopped me 3 or 4 times (I have a very forgettable face!) during my lunch hour.
 
"Excuse me madam, have you had an accident that wasn't your fault?"
 
 
I answered politely the first few times, then the last time I swung round and said
 
"No. But you might if you ask me that once more!"
 

 
*emptiest threat OF EVAH!!!*

If you pay that much for a bowl of cereal you are a bit fucking stupid. Still, it's their money, let them choose how to spend it.
 
Hipster. Does that just mean scruffy twat? If so, I have been a hipster for most of my life.
 
I wish some cunt would gentrify Edmonton. However, in order to do so they would have to nuke the place initially.

"Oh shit its overheating, oh no it isn't, the gauge is just wanky"
