Princess gas turbine. Len Lord in suit in foreground  1953. Gas turbine was a cul-de-sac for development - too hot and too thirsty - and too dangerous?

VX 4/90.  

2.0 ohc slant 4, my uncle had a bottle-green H-reg one around 1973/4. Really great body style which suits rostyle wheels. Black vinyl interior which had a distinctive smell on hot summer days, sold because it only did about 21mpg if I remember correctly. It also did 100mph though. Replaced by a Mk1 Granada 2500 estate to carry his drum kit. Hmmmmm.

Why pitch your tent on the ground like everyone else when you could pitch it precariously on a board on the roofrack right on top of your car? 

Make going for a piss during the night an adventure, part of your holiday memories you can look back on and cherish.  You know it makes sense Rodney. And you won't be pestered by rabbits at 6 a.m.  Asking the time.

Kits 4 pounds 3 shillings and sixpence. Includes ladder but does not include tent or bird. Or car.

It's her. You know who I mean. Forgotten her name.

Virginia Wade, the last British woman ever to win a Wimbledon singles title?

Another Morris innovation before it's time - the 'enormous grille facelift' (c) the 1950's. It's a shame it wasn't patented as Audi et al would be bankrupted by now. Or they would have kept with smaller less awful grilles.

My green GLS never attracted any women like this (possibly because if they had sat on the bonnet they would have fallen through it due to the rust).

Holbay Rapier, just like mine, virtually same colour, but mine had doors. 

Still had it when I met Mrs BMH 35 years ago, although that's not her.............
