vulgalour Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Is that first car a very early Prefect? The grille looks slightly wrong for a Prefect but it's too small and the styling is wrong for it to be a Pilot and it looks too big to be an Anglia/Popular.

Eddie Honda Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 That's no Allegro, it's the new Satsuma Castanet SUV. Sigmund Fraud, chaseracer, M'coli and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Case Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Is that first car a very early Prefect? The grille looks slightly wrong for a Prefect but it's too small and the styling is wrong for it to be a Pilot and it looks too big to be an Anglia/Popular.Yes, tis a Prefect and also yes, I think it is an E93A, although the E numbers make the Mercedes W numbers straightforward It is an early postwar one, i don't think they were called Prefects pre-war. The later ones after about 1950 has the built in headlamps and chrome grille. Either way they were the most horrible vehicle inflicted on the postawr motoring public; suspension taken straight off the 1908 model T, wipers that gave up the ghost as soon as they looked at a hill, and the headlamps are useful for attracting other glow worms, but that's as far as it goes. On the other hand I do like the Vitegro (?), I do hope that it has the VDP picnic tables I would like to think that the owner got together with the Anglia rod owner and did a deal on the Maserati engine, what an off roader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danthecapriman Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Nice stuff there, love the rod with the Maserati engine. But, in pic number 2 I see a red mk2 Capri. Looks like an early one. Any pics of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New POD Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 That is FUCKING brilliant. The builder needs a Medal. I am especially liking the "Var-nderm Plar" grill and the side indicators on the wings and the roof bars, and the wheel arch extensions. Class.

Mine had been modified though. The grille had been painted silver. It was a 1939 one and only 26 years old. That would be a 1990 model today.

meggersdog Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Im sure I saw Sam (captain slow) handing the owner of that Allgritara a prize later in the day. Think I took a pic of that P reg Mk11 Capri (with terrible paint) a few years ago, might be on here somewhere. Oh and it was good to see scruff's A35 bombing about the Cambridgeshire/Lincolnshire countryside. scruff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 You did, yes - it won one of the show awards for cars we as the judging panel just liked! (For any visitors, I was the fat judge with too much hair and a cream jacket) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
