Just me and Reggie today. Have only done the White Lion once this year so far, for the Austin/Morris day which was a bit of a damp squib. The weather was slated to be good for today and turned out to be so. Got there around 10.15 had a coffee and a good look around with Reggie. He has taste!
It was his walk too, so the fact that the field was in use (and near enough full) was good for him.
He had a good snuffle about and didnt try to pee on any cars! He saw a couple of four legged friends whilst I was able to enjoy looking at beasts of the four wheeled variety.
Usual lineup shot, and a standalone. Loveley weather similar to a prior visit same time last year, so probably very similar pictures!
Oh well, definitely seen this shot before, but whats changed this time. Worsening front bumper and AA Grille badge I guess.
Next year's version should hopefully have a gleaming bumper again.
MGA was always my dream car. Having been introduced to world of Austin a bit more since having Amy, it's now a tough call between that and an Austin Healey. I think the Healey might be edging it. Both out of reach realistically, but this photo opportunity today made for a good comparision anyways.
I've liked the Austin Healey 3000 ever since I saw one driven by Ian Carmichael who played the lead character in the original British film 'School for scoundrels' (also starring Alastair Simm) which was made in 1959.
