I love vintage cars, if I was better off I would have a normal runabout car and a vintage one for pootling about in the summer with the top down. I'm particularly keen on that little cream chap at the top, the Frog Eyed Sprite. Look at his happy little face!
My good friend Flo has always loved these dinky little fellows. You don't realise quite how tiny they are until you see them in the flesh. I don't think Chris with his long legs could get into one of these! I'd love to have a little test drive of one though. These was a woman looking at the engine who repeatedly told her husband that they can run on only 2 cylinders, so there's a factoid for the day!
I also love the text you find on vintage buses. Here is a few pictures of my favourites. Maybe i'll get myself an old bus or coach for the summer holidays too!
Finally, here's a picture of me looking a bit windswept and getting in the way at a crucial moment...

Oooh Jess, you're looking super cool and funky! I'd forgotten about this, we went to Felixstowe a few years ago and loved it. I'd love a little 'baked bean' car, too cute. x
I saw these coming into Felixstowe on the day! They are always so pretty, especially in the sunshine - few of them having trouble on the dual carriageway though ;) xx
I love vintage cars! I really really want one, might take a while to save up though and then there's that pesky learning to drive thing...
Owning a vintage car is indeed very satisfying and rewarding! My late grandfather had a Ford Model T that we still maintain. We drive it regularly so the engines will not rust and deteriorate.
You can never deny the sophisticated beauty these cars represent. I’m dreaming of owning a vintage car too; a Jaguar E-Type, to be exact. But in the mean time, I am contented by just looking at them. :”>
