Have You Seen Any Interesting Cars On The Road Lately?

Saw a triumph tr3 at a junction today while it was sleeting. Guy looked perished but reminded me of the times I've driven to Westerham at Christmas in my first cobra. In those days I used to wrap a single electric blanket round me powered through an inverter to the cigar socket. Body was toasty warm, everything else was bloody freezing 🥶
For those that asked.....

Certain colours suit certain cars/models. This car looks pretty cool and I bet you it's a young chick's car

for me, since my first brand new car 30 years ago, my cars have always been black as in those days and its the same with our children's cars, all of them have been black
You’re not related to Henry Ford are you?:dk:

And there was me thinking you Cobra guys just jammed on a 49ers baseball cap, on your head, put on a Harley T shirt and a pair of camo combat shorts and went for it.

Ha! Most are getting on a bit now and like their warmth, putting the cats to bed October to march, not me though, I used to love an early Sunday morning drive (speed limits only, obviously) in the winter, car drive so much better 😁

Here's a picture of my winter "attire"......

Late friend of mine had a cobra (probably a replica), and although he was shall we say mature, he still went through a set of rear tyres in 3k miles! I once looked lovingly at one in the Rover main agent showroom in Hastings, but management was present so all I was allowed to do was look!

Would thatRover agent have been Skinners?

Can't remember, it was a long time ago - it was just below the big Sainsburys off the A21 as you approach Hastings from Battle direction. I should know though, as it's where I PX'd my 827 Vitesse (which I did not want to sell, but management got verbal about it having very close to 100k miles on it despite the fact it was immaculate and running like a sewing machine!!) for an 820 turbo vitesse - on which I dropped about £8k in less than a year when I px'd it for the Porsche 968 tip coupe (which we kept for 12 1/2 years and loved!).
