    I've just bought one: "Kacey" (KCYXXF), a Dove Grey Minor. It's great fun!

    AFter 13 years of owning old Fords such as Escort/Capri/Cortina/Corsair (at least 50 at the last count) I have graduated to an ST Focus and ST Mondeo, cheap as chips and a lot of bang for the pound and still around 10 years old.

    If anyone is still interested, I have added a further selection of vintage vehicle pictures to Flickr. As well as old cars, there are pictures of old buses and traction engines in this batch. Here's the first one :

    As usual, clicking on it will enlarge it and take you to the others.

    One more batch to come and then I can start on the railway pictures.

    A neighbour of ours many years ago had one; I can still remember the fruity roar as it went up the road!

    There are loads of pictures of them on Flickr; if this link works you can take your pick!

    If I see one anywhere I'll get a picture for you.
