Private British Classics Car Park
This Weekend I visited some friends of mine who are addicted to classic british cars and british lifestyle as much as I am.
The green morgan is a 4/4, more than 30 years old, with a tuned escort xr3 engine. Brutal acceleration when the carburetor shifts into the second "gear" (I do not know the english word, the carburetor operates in two modes, and you really get a kick in your back when the second mode starts to fire up). We found that the new 4/4 has more space inside, seems to be a little bit wider, but my friend found that the new one is more difficult to get into due to the new door shape / position.
The flag over the bonnet looks very cool. A good Picture for a plate "Morgan Parking Only" ;-)
But most impressive for me was the garage for their classic cars - or their "Salon", as better to say:
This really is the most luxurious garage for british classics that i have ever seen! Seems to be real enthusiasm ;-)

"Twin Choke" or "Progressive twin choke" is how that type of carburetor is described!

Great shots thanks for those the Union flag looks great on the bonnet.
That studio is something else amazing.
My neighbour has just bought himself a nice 1990's Mercedes 500SL AMG and it is a very nice car.
