Re: Caravaning with a Traveller

when i passed my HGV Class 1 (artic) test in 1979,you didn't even have to have a full car licence to take your test! just ordinary 'L' plates as well as the HGV learner plates. apart from that,i love to see classic cars towing a caravan :)

Re: One for classic Vauxhall fans

i love 50's and 60's Vauxhall's,in fact i've been thinking of adding a FB or FC Victor to my small fleet of classics..i'm just worried that i'd dissolve overnight,with their rust problems :(
does anyone on here run one? best of all i like the PB Cresta's..but very few left i'd imagine.
