OMG - have driven Humbers for years. They would be so useless in a car chase

Hi My Dad is driving the front car he is 84 now !!

@AlistairBBBB - cool. Say hi to him from Australia where we have a 1946 Super Snipe, a 1968 Super Snipe and a 1950 Bentley in the garage. My hubby and I met through the Humber car club here in Australia. (However, these days I drive a very nice 407 Peugeot). My Dad has a 1963 Humber Sceptre also. There aren't many left on the road these days. Certainly didn't see any when we were in England last year.

I did this by accident

first time I took my Morris oxford round a large roundabout at my usual speed

forgot to allow for crossplys

I think the other drivers around me were a little worried

I know I was

The skid scenes aren't very dramatic are they? I imagine now they would have a graphic image of a child being mowed down.

Try going round in a 1950's car a ton and half of car on radial tyres very difficult.

Gotta be Hendon driving school NW9 I believe.

[AlistairBBBB]

Yes that is right in the 1960's

[AlistairBBBB]
