Would you look at that!

Just shows how good the Matchbox model was all them years ago to be able to stand up to the Oxford rendition today.

Thank's for posting Gerrit, hope you are keeping well.

Thanks Kevin. I am doing well, hope the same goes for you.
That 44B is one of my all time favs for sure.

Yes, who else could it have been!

Glad it has survived because when Rolls-Royce were approached by a disgruntled onlooker, Rolls-Royce said there is nothing they can do, it is his (John's), property and he can do what he likes (which he did!).

Had Rolls-Royce got hold of the car they would have had it stripped and repainted in more sober colours.
