LONDON – I did a spot of shopping today and stumbled upon a vintage car display on Oxford Street which had been pedestrianised and as a result, the exhibition attracted quite a crowd. These vintage cars were on display and looked quite grand. Capital! Capital!
I also loved this one.
Ever driven one of these?
OUT & ABOUT in the city 
No – but my grandfather drove a Dodge coupe from the early 1930s and the family car was a great big heavy Nash coupe (about 1928 from memory – the car was only just a little younger than my mother!) until the mid 1960s when Dad became a Volkswagon fan. Mum talked about learning to drive the Nash, which had to be “double declutched” (whatever that meant) to change gears. I remember her crank starting it (who needed a fitness programme in those days?!) and carrying an enormous bottle of water everywhere we went to top up the radiator. Thank goodness for my gallant old Toyota Corolla – a piece of breeze to drive!
Those two guys in the first picture are really cute; looks like they came out around the same year as the car!
That’s funny. They probably did.
