ps Kev, tell me more about our brief chat!
Paul - I wish I could remember...but as I get the impression that you don't remember my visit ...?...maybe my brain cells can't be too bad in comparison.
I certainly remember it was a fine summer's evening - I was staying near Eltham ...and Catford rings a bell - Are the pics from your road...?
I took 4 pics in total (I have the other framed somewhere) and it was a thrill to come across another 131 Sport in existence, even way back then. I seem to remember that you were a little bit reserved, possibly because you had no idea who I was or what my motives were. I did appreciate your letting me see and photograph the car and I do also remember that you had no intentions of selling it.
I obtained your name and tel no on a list of other owners from the FTCR - Try that nowadays with the Data Protection Act!!
Youve told an interesting story above and one that I can well identify with - It was a great feeling when I again sat in and drove a 131 Sport after a long gap - It's an all over experience isn't it? Long may the cars live on and generate such enthusiasm.
