    I was at "Cars in the Park" at Newby Hall yesterday. Over 300 cars on display (including my baby) and some lovely kit. BUT for me, the highlight was a car I have never seen in the flesh (so to speak) before........

    Lambo Muira.

    Lovely!

    For sale too, but afraid my pockets don't run to £1/3m to drop on a 42 year old car (or car of any age for that matter)

    I took the NSX along - nothing as exotic as the Muira but I like it and for an 18 year old example, she still attracted a fair few admirers.

    I was at an italian car show day recently and fell for the Alfa 8c .It was gorgeous. And I think it was only £188k.

    :D



    Yours Spica?

    My Mum's step dad had one, in the rearly 70s when he first retired.






    Yep,

    I always liked those as a kid too.

    Not sure as I'd want the expense of one now though!

    60 quid for an oil change on my Connect transit.

    Yes David..would have been nice, but too far gone it was. Amongst others there's a Ford Pop and a Mustang receiving treatment at the moment (though not by my hand)

    thanks :)
