Went to a local Hill Climb and Show
#1
Managed to blag some cheap tickets to a pretty local hill climb and classic car show near me.
Sadly to my surprise there where NO motorcycle classes running in the hill climb and even less motorcycles on display!
I couldn't get near enough to the hill climb to take any decent pics so you'll have to put up with my attempts to snap a few pics for your perusual..

It's a lovely little thing, all aluminium weighs 2400lbs (1100kg) with a 1.8 ltr four pot turbo 300hp motor. The power to weight is superb, hand built in France, she tells me it achieves 45mpg UK under normal running!

Thank you, JT. Beautiful cars there. Too bad about the motorcycles, though. Still, a better day than many.

Im confused by that GT40. How are the intakes inside the car???

I think the GT40 was a kit car build as was the green AC cobra in the background
The kit seemed to be very expensive to m,.so maybe it was an accurate copy...but what do I know?

You’re in the UK and it wasn’t raining so it was a great day out. I remember going to a few hill climbs growing up in N. Ireland. Nice cars.
