A free morning and Kim out shopping meant it was a daddy daughter mission in the Camper. On the A30 and pulling into the White Lion Antiques centre carpark there were a few classics already parked up on Austin Healey Day. As well as a trio of Italian exotica.
With a rumbling tummy, we headed for the breakfast stand and nabbed a sausage and bacon bap between us and wandered back to the Camper to munch. We had carpark buddy as well in the form of a fully restored Fiat 500. Full up once more we ventured out for a walk round, the carpark was filling up with a huge variety of classics.
A pair of X1/9s turned up as well.
We had a walk round the antiques centre before heading back outside, by now the field was in use and around a 100 classics were on show. Its amazing how many this little meet can draw in each time.
On the field, fellow Dubber Harry turned up, he was soon joined by a new Morgan three wheeler and an amazing Mclaren M6 kitcar, built from moulds taken from prototype number 4 in the 1990s it gathered a huge crowd.
Having a family can often rule out classic ownership. With the Camper and Beetle we have a family friendly pair that can be used easily. Just coming up to classic status, and perfect for transporting the family around. This Lotus Carlton was obviously dads pride and joy and came with two kiddy seats fitted.
We finished off looking round before heading home for lunch. There are White Lion meets running through until Christmas, so we hope to get back out again at least once this year.
Steve.
