Some of the more interesting of the 40-plus cars we have owned:
Essex, England 1959. My second MG, a 1932 F type Magna, bought from a breaker after a friend wrecked our 1930 Midget.
My mother sold it for £25 to a student when they moved house. I had recently spent that much for a set of reconditioned wheel nuts! It is still shown on the DVLA website.
Perth, Australia 1964. My 1950's Jag Mk VII. Sold to help finance our marriage in 1965.
Wiltshire ca.1982. Our 1952 TD, which I restored in 1971, with our son. We later gave it to him for transport at Uni. He sold it a few years later, not looking quite as shiny.
Somewhere in Italy ca.1990. My wife's 1986 Alfa Sprint, bought for our Silver wedding anniversary. Sold to a Breton Alfa enthusiast via LBC last year, with more energy than I now have for repairing rusty cars.
France 2015. Our third NSU Ro80, a 1973 model, bought in 1984, restored in Mallorca in 1991. I installed a 175 HP tuned Mazda 13B rotary engine in 2002, so it kept up well with modern traffic, and was used regularly. Sold to a Japanese collector. Pic taken just before it was collected and driven to England for shipping to Japan.
France 2016. Our current 1996 Audi A4 Avant, just bought with a full history and only 40k km on the clock. It has even now done only 70k km. Bought as replacement for the Ro80, used only for longish trips.
