Another trip to the local Classic Car Breakfast meet this morning at White lion Antiques. Once again a bumper turn out. This time around the featured marques was lots and there were swarms of them. A selection in the pictures below.
 |
| You don't see many of these anymore, Lotus Vauxhall Carlton, a real wolf in sheep's clothing. |
 |
| Very original Lotus Cortina Mk2 |
 |
| A bit lary and in bad taste in terms of decals in my opinion, this Essex Esprit. However, talking to Antonio from work ( a keen lotus fan and Elan Sprint owner) apparently this was how they came out of the factory! |
 |
| I really liked the early Elan Coupe's there were a few there today. |
 |
| Can't remember the last time I saw a Lotus Sunbeam |
 |
| OK so Lotus didn't make a Lotus Anglia, but if they had, here is one! |
 |
| Antonio's fabulous Elan Sprint |

| It's that Lary Essex Esprit again |
 |
| Always had a soft spot for Lotus Europas. I had a matchbox model of one when I was a kid! |

| Looks familiar, oh yes it's mine! |
 |
| Glenn's Spitfire, Bonnet open as we were discussing some carb issues he has. |

| The V6 Toledo on it's way out |
And here are a few of the other marques that caught my eye.
 |
| Well it was back to the future day earlier this week so only right to feature some DeLorean's |
 |
| Nice Plymouth Baracuda, I'd like this in my stable of cars. |
 |
| A very "Noble" car |
 |
| I think this MItsubushi wins lary bad taste car of the meet... |
 |
| Genuine World Cup Mexico rally car, a shame it's been modded as it had a modern Ford Engine in it. |
 |
| Racing Jensen Healey, again an Engine Change, had a Ford 4 pot in it instead of the original Lotus slant Engine. |
 |
| Cute and Original Kestrel |
 |
| Pretty rare nowadays, an Escort RS Cosworth |
