TONITE! BBC4 "Britain's Best Drives"

Post by MikeNash »

Yup, see it at 10 p.m. doing the "North Yorkshire Moors". And in a TRAVELLER too! The first of six trips.
Regards, MikeN.
Morris Minor, the car of the future. One day they will all look like this!

How about letting him drive an AEC Matador the entire length of the Fosse Way?!

THAT would be interesting!

Mmmm......
