A beautiful drive in the countryside.

This film was made in the lanes and villages of Somerset, England on Sunday 14th June 2009. The car is a 1926 Bentley 3.0 litre, is unrestored and is in 'oily rag' condition, but is in good mechanical condition.

As you can guess, I'm into classic cars.

 

Fantastic. I watched it and enjoyed it. I think those ancient motors are ace, but I bet they're a maintenance nightmare I was surprised that it popped a long at a fair rate. I thought those vintages could only muster about 25mph flat out.

Was it you in the vid? I was amused at the beginning by the cover being slowly and ceremonially slid off, then being chucked on the floor

 

Not me in the video, I'm afraid. (Although I'd love to be able to afford a Bentley, I'll never be able to, unfortunately.)


This is my Austin Healey 3000, year 1960, on a classic car run. Itâ??s only 49 years old so not vintage as the Bentley is.













This is me leading a group of classic cars and having a dispute over right of way with a tank! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

 

I keep telling the wife that I'm going to buy an old tank, but I don't think she believes me Every time I change my car she quickly learns the particular engine note of my latest car. One day she'll be sat watching telly waiting for me to get home from work, and she'll here chug-chug-chug and the windows will start shaking, and it will be me in an old decommissioned tank.
