Alpine Adventure – Paul’s test drive

Paul went over to Doug’s place and took “Betty” for a test drive.

Weather was sunny and warm and slightly drier than the Brooklands circuit drive. Doug has worked so hard on this lovely car and it is looking brilliant – well done and thank you Dougie – we are all so excited for this trip!

Rally polo shirts will be arriving soon – some laughter and discussion about the sizes, ranging from small to XXXL!

Less than two weeks to go gang – roll on the 7th June – more news to follow soon!

  1. What an absolutely charming machine, Paul. And Doug obviously has it in fine fettle. I am positive Betty Haig would be tremendously pleased to be so honored. Any complications/challenges on your adventure? I am so envious!
