That was me and the father in law in the BJ40, well spotted.

Spotted today in Galway

Nothing interesting about it, an absolute abomination in my opinion.
Still it takes all sorts.

I agree. Horrible yokes...basically kit-cars afaik - often used as wedding cars (by people with no interest/taste in cars) :rolleyes:

Leopardstown Racecourse yesterday

26000 Elephants

I love the morris fg ice cream truck, although that body style takes away their most endearing feature - the rearward angled doors. My father ran one or two for deliveries in the '70's, and I used to plague the drivers to take me on a round.

Just look at the fit of the canvas roof around the top of the doors. I reckon I'd get my fist in the gap!

I've been looking through old pics on my laptop this evening and realised I never posted any pics of the time I visited LeMans last spring. The whole town is a special place as a petrol head. Everywhere you look is car mad, the road around the town just happens to be the Mulsanne straight of the actual racecourse that makes the town famous and the track itself has a fantastic museum that celebrates both the best of Frence motoring but also obviously has the ultimate collection of LeMans race cars including two of my ultimate race cars ever, the Mazda 787B and the Peugeot 905. LeMans is only about two hours from the boat in Cherbourg so anyone passing through France this summer its well worth a few hours and if you a motorsport geek like me, give youself a whole lot more time!!!

^ wow, great pics CianDon..

Some recent spots, though not in the same league, one or two could claim motorsport connections
Apologies for the shaky Ferrari pic, and it is the real deal, not an MR2.
The Audi might not be considered a classic, more of a youngtimer, but I love this generation of Audi, very subtle lines
