Hello Tony, Thanks for the reply I am up in Brittany so about 4 to 5 hours away from you.

Shame really as it would have been nice to meet a fellow Brit with an interest in the older British cars.

Welcome to BCF! I learned to drive in a Jag XK150 coupe!
I learned to drive in my dad's '56 Austin-Healey 100-4 and when he switched to an early '58 XK150 FHC, I drove that as my car for a year (freshman in high school) while he was stationed overseas. Learning to drive with a Moss gearbox is challenge, but my '30 Ford Model A Tudor with no synchros on any gear is a step up in challenges.

My late '58 XK150S OTS is the car of my dreams
