My first posted photos - a classy combo

Saw this in the paddock at Castle Combe today. Made me smile.

Bloody hell, what a combo. Those Brian James rigs are nearly a ton on their own, christ knows what it is with a 308 on top, more than I'd like to tug with an ancient Hawk at any rate....

It looks like a Hawk, but said 'Super Snipe' on the doors in chrome.Not on DVLA...

Ebay found it though.

The Series 1 Super Snipes only had two headlamps; thereafter four.Anorak fact: Super Snipe was the first British production car with four headlamps....

Ace combo. C&SC had great pics like this one years ago, like a Ferrari 275 GTB towing a ratty trailer with a Brescia Bugatti. I'd love to tow a Dacia Logan (saloon, white) behind a prewar Renault.
