It was here that we met a lovely couple from a classic car club. Their car on show was a Rover P6 2200 in the most beautiful sage green/grey colour (forget engine size - it's all about colour). And would you believe it on show next to it was their 1965 Sprite 400.
I was invited in to have a look around the vintage caravan. The interior was almost original. The exterior was hand painted. It was proudly on show complete with awning. The middle-aged couple were really interested to hear about my Sprite 400. I was handed a car club leaflet and asked "Are you gonna tow it and show it?" I was lost for words...
I'd never really considered towing and showing but it got me thinking. I do have a squidgy soft spot for a Morris Traveller! The car would be perfect for towing my spritey little Sprite 400. Ahhhh the lazy summer days out, picnic rug and champagne. How idyllic. How romantic!
So, after much discussion with the gorgeous Mr Grubby Cottage we decided that one day, in the not too distant future, we will indeed tow and show. However, a little work is needed to convince, persuade, butter-up Mr GC's choice of car. We are not really singing from the same hymn sheet...
