The mostly dull, few years story of my ownership of a 1954 Austin A40 Somerset. From buying her on 25th Aug 2013 to selling her and her being taken away on 22nd April 2017. For my own interest, but probably much to the amusement of any long established Austin enthusiasts who stumble across this. And if reading my stories of joy (and woe) is any use to any newbie like me who is thinking of getting into something similar then that's a bonus.

800 up!
Just coincidence that, as I rolled onto the driveway today, the trip meter was showing bang on 800 miles. That is a few more steps towards the magic 999!! The 37045 total(?) miles showing is approx. 2000 miles done since I got her. 2 and a half TIMES more than she did in the whole 6 YEARS prior to that!! Clearly she laid pretty dormant between 2009 and 2013. TEN times more miles that compared to that 4 year period.
