flipping freezing early morning ...!!!!



a few italians on the track ,beta, 308  ,monty and gt junior , 156 touring cars .

and it got slightly warmer on the banking begining of the afternoon

 

Nice day yesterday, good to catch up with people. Shame it was so cold - the only way to stay warm was for everyone to sit (sleep ) in their cars

Absolutely wonderful to spend time with some of my 131 mates. I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy us all getting together.

As has already been mentioned, the wind was cold - to say the least - and the coffee was extremely expensive - but the company was warm and at least it didn't rain.  

I did more miles in this single return trip (85) than I did all last year in my orange Special and the more I drove her the more she freed herself up and the nicer she became to drive   Clicked over 16 000 miles on the M3 coming home. Not really the sort of car to drive long distance at motorway speeds with four adults on board, being just a 1600 OHV, struggled a bit on the long inclines on the A303, but she didn't miss a beat all day  

In the pics above it's interesting how the design of the 131 was developed from S1 to S3 isn't it? They don't look like the same model at all to me.  

A bit soggier on the sunday  , but still a big crowd
