trisonic Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 None. A Blower Bentley would look very cool, however.... Best, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugd1022 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'm still wondering which of these various suggestions would look alright 'in place' and acceptable for the area parked outside Ivo's abode in the Royal Crescent in Bath http://www.google.co...iw=1069&bih=986 Blimey Mike, I hadn't realised Ivo lived there! Up to now, I'd just assumed he lived somewhere on the outskirts of the city, with easy access to Midford and beyond.... well, you live and learn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted March 22, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 22, 2012 Changing the subject a little, the latr Derek Cross also was wont to include is car in some of his photos - in some of his published photos, his Sunbeam Alpine used to appear - now what would be the modern equivalent of this.

alastairq Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Mazda M5? The Sunbeam Alpine wasn't a particularly 'sporting' car....unless modified...[now the Tiger was something else, however...I remember seeing one belonging to the Met Police....pop-up Pleece' sign on rear shelf, and two burly coppers crammed inside.....must have had extra strong door locks?] Probably one of the Swedish soft tops might be considered an equivalent these days? As a modern equivalent of the old Bentley [in relevant terms], I think the big Chrysler might have filled the bill...in black, of course? The Old Bentley really wasn't super power in its day....and today, neither is the Chrysler...but it has a certain refined elegance... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugd1022 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'm sure David Cross also had a Zircon Blue Rover 2000 which cropped up in the odd photo. He could easily have moved onto a Rover 75... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
