Classic Cars and Coffee - Sunday 7th May 2023

I took my DKW F94 to the meet and was interviewed by Marc, who is a regular attendee and video blogger. Check out his video below. My interview starts at 4.05.



There actually wasn't any rain to speak of on Sunday morning, most falling overnight and during the early morning. Nevertheless, rain scares away classic car drivers so the turn out was extremely small.

Mini rolling in.

Classic Cars and Coffee - Sunday 2nd April 2023

Sunday 2nd April was a perfect day for classic motoring.

Back in December 2021, I loaned my Tatraplan to the Motor Museum of WA for display in their collection. The car was with them for more than a year until I collected it from them at the end of March 2023, just in time for the April Classic Cars and Coffee. 

Arriving early-ish. Despite not having been run in over 12 months, I found that the car needed no special maintenance. The brakes were good, no loss of fluid, the gearbox oil was full, the engine oil was full, the petrol pump worked - it did have a leaky seal, which I fixed before driving her - and the car started up easily. It was nice to take her out on a good drive.

I was lucky enough to get a spot where I could reverse park. The Tatra does NOT have good vision to the rear.

Skoda 100RS

Here's a real interesting car - an Auburn Speedster model 851, no less. Actually it's a replica, but a damned good looking one.

Lancia
