Think I spotted you on the Dreghorn junction, Edinburgh bypass in the big Healey on Wednesday? - I was in a blue 964.
Beautiful car btw
Most likely would have been the old man, stays quite near Dreghorn.Beautiful car btw
I have seen a lovely 964 in blue with dark/black wheels on the bypass a few times, is that your car? Looks and sounds stunning!

I like the big healeys, but they just aren't very fast at all, bet they are worth a fair few Bob now though. I wouldn't. Mind one with a modern v 8 conversion etc
Where as your 1.6,8v Golf is a rocket ship....Back on topic - Nice cars, although the snaps dont do them justice!

Woo that's orignal, have a go at my car, my point still stands, it's a slow car for 20-30k you can get a lot of metal for that money
I think you're missing the point in such cars.Both lovely cars but I'm not keen on the shiny lights on the front of the RX7, other than that I love it.

Don’t really see your point, it wasn’t bought for its performance (although could still show the golf up 
). Need to get some better pictures, will be next year now the salt is on the roads!

They ain't as slow as you think, i was chasing one up a long climb in Spain 2 yrs back, in my Boxster, and the Healey surprised me with its pace i must say.
