Funny, hi and thanks - this is probably one of the oldest vehicles still regularly running around the streets of London.

These old cars look so elegant, I don't think I've seen this one driving around London I'll have to keep my eyes open.

Stewart, this car is often in Hyde Park. The students who drive it are based in Imperial College just South of the Park.

Nice! Looks great in British Racing Green, too. Maybe they can swing by the Lotus shop for a little tweaking ...

Hi Earl, good to hear from you .. how is the shoulder therapy going? The James and Browne probably needs something more akin to a plumber than a tweaker fiddling with it!

Are they in trouble?

Odon, they are in trouble, but these budding engineers see trouble as an opportunity as well as a challenge ;-]
