So when I got my own I had it modified in the interests of good taste and style. ![F5hHiRdW0AAw1qw](https://discourse-sotonians-uploads.s3.dualstack.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/8/5/85aa6f873ab3c052aeaf5e128a0c22a26575ff39.jpeg) ---

I’ve seen these before of course, nearly all in museums or car shows. But I don’t remember ever seeing one actually on the road until today. ![IMG_20231105_134349](https://discourse-sotonians-uploads.s3.dualstack.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/f/9/f9cca8336235928185b17ae217d028b73e4e144d.jpeg) A27, near Park Gate. ---

Here’s the Bangers and Cash Hillman GT, at the British Motor Museum yesterday. Also a scorching Mk1 3 litre Capri in the car park. ![IMG20231125140337](https://discourse-sotonians-uploads.s3.dualstack.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/e/f/efef2385cb0ca8737aa10cf0a8e227041aa9a627.jpeg) ![IMG20231125141110](https://discourse-sotonians-uploads.s3.dualstack.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/7/e/7e4f43c125f4a5632fcf5ac29b4510cfc5059c52.jpeg) ---
