Went to Dunster castle on the way home on Sunday and there were a few cars outside the entrance, this caught my eye as a nice ‘sleeper’ !!

My dad has one of those in pieces that he wants to restore. Do you guys know if there is any forum/FB group of owners, and where I can find parts for it please?

Thanks.

The is a Facebook group for the Morris Minor Owners Club which you can join without being a member, then a website for the club too. Worth checking out.

A pair of Porsches, stayed at the same hotel as us in Switzerland, they left together early in the morning but it was nice to see them travelling down the road as we ate breakfast. Interesting to compare the Speedster to the Chesil. 2 very beautiful cars.

omg, this would set off my OCD - why would you drive your beautiful Porsche 911 with a wonky numberplate?! It's a cherished plate as well...

Exactly what I was thinking Paul! Makes it look pants doesn't it.

Saw a nice Westfield on the M25 this morning heading clockwise. It was yellow with a white bonnet stripe, aero screen and driver with black helmet. Anyone here? Roughly 7.30am on the Southern section, probably junction 8 ish.

I'm amazed actually, I've just been out for a blat not far from Bath, not a long one maybe 40 miles, passed Castle Combe circuit and did not see one single kit! Barely any classics either, saw maybe 2. 

 

It's beautiful out, dry roads, loads of grip, where is everyone?

Mowing the *^%#$€ lawn and clearing my garage out before re roofing it the week after next. Kept trying to find an excuse to pop out for a quick blat but it never happened unfortunately 😢

Actually, just managed a quick 20 mins while everyone else was busy. I don’t think Mrs Stu even noticed I was gone! 🤣

That's the new club flagship - paid for by the increase in subscription fees 

😉

 

 

(Only kidding! Personally, I'm fortunate enough to find even the increased rate a bargain for what I get)

This article just popped up on my Google suggestions, and I thought of this post! The GT3RS is Mark Riccionis, who is of Evo, Top Gear etc etc fame. The list of cars he's had over the years is quite something, he's got a road going Ferrari 360 GT3 from memory!
