Default Tiny's car in Wales

Went to the Colin McRae Subaru weekender this weekend, looooooong drive and mega amount spent on petrol , but worth it, did the tour on Saturday headed by Colin McRae's road car along with 80+ other scoobies from around the country, found some of the driving a bit scary! . Didn't realise Wales had such beautiful scenery, wanted to go a bit slower to see a bit more of it (that's my excuse anyway)

Today was the car show with several of Colin's cars in attendance, met some lovely people and spotted this car...........





Interesting adaptation of the Essex Scooby Crew logo

Well done for attending, we go to Rhonda every Nov for the rally and I understand the petrol dilema in that situation. Driving there and back plus all the touring but what a great place I love it. Worth every penny and some!

Once a poser. Always a poser son.

The car always had plenty of admirers.

Oh no what a horrible end for him after a great weekend , but yes, your old car was looking particularly fine

Would definately consider going up there again, despite the petrol, particularly if could meet up again with some of the people we met this time; shame no-one else from Essex wanted to go but i totally understand why, too expensive if planning another family holiday as well

Question

I noticed that it's still got the 'Ring sticker on the boot. I wonder if the new owner has ACTUALLY taken it around
