fantastic trip and nice way to prove how practical small cars can be

There are a few of us! A 90mph 3-wheeler that out accelerated most sports cars of it's day should get more recognition. I wish I still owned LRL 647F!!

re extra cooling fan,
With every day over 90 deg F it was warm air cooling a very warm engine, needed that little extra to help keep the engine from overheating. Worked very well!
Gumball inspired... just wanted to do something different for a special occasion in my life.

Due to the constant use of the extra cooling fan I fitted on the radiator, we had to push start several times, other than that going we had no other problems. Coming back, had a hole in the break pipe and as we reached England the clutch went and thanks to a fellow Bug owner managed to fix it in Hastings to complete the rest of the journey. If you would like to read our full story visit bondbugs.co.uk and click on Malta Trip. Well done on the Lambretta trip! cheers Rory

I still have my 700SE which I bought in the early 90s. I'll have to get around to restoring it one day as it's in a rather sorry state at the moment. Inspiring video of a great adventure. Thanks for sharing :)

@SimplyPaul Hi Paul you must get your Bug to our 40th Anniversary Bash at Woburn in August, even if it on a trailer.
Meet you there!
