LostSoul Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Just given the Manta a quick polish ready for Drive-it-Day this Sunday. https://www.driveitday.co.uk Will head somewhere with an old car connection nearby for a coffee and back again 😄 Anyone else doing something similar?

Sutty2006 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Not me, doesn’t look local. Get some pics when you go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike. Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I’m hoping to attend the Drive it day in Aberdeen, hopefully we get a dry day and if so we can expect a few Manta’s to be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostSoul Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 Steve, it's national, not local or otherwise as basically it's just a fundraiser. Donate online, fit your plate (too late now?) and take your old car out for a drive wherever you like. (Oh, and wave if you spot another car with the plate on, I guess 😎) Some of the regular car-gathering-type venues are welcoming Drive-it-Day participants (I'm heading to Classic Car Hub, about an hour and a half away). Mike - fingers crossed for good weather 🤞😀 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I'll be out with Boston Classic Car Club again, meeting for breakfast at a local cafe, then a 50 mile run through Lincolnshire. I just hope the weather is better than last year. Photo copyright D F Leatherdale from last year's run. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostSoul Posted April 21 Author Share Posted April 21 Well, the weather turned out fine here - I hope it was the same for everyone? A few pictures from the gathering at The Classic MoTor Hub... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) After completing our run at Fleet in Lincolnshire we made our way to a local (to home) farm ice cream place that was hosting a classic car day. By the time we got there just before 4.00pm most people had gone, however my friend George was still there with his Centaur. We went to grab an ice cream and when we came back to the car this HC Viva had joined us, which the owner told us was the one used by Jane McDonald in her recent program My Yorkshire.

BarryD89 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Great photos, I was over in Skegness which seems more bikers than cars, but I did see and wave at a couple of classics out on the road to/from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutty2006 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Great stuff guys, I did a car boot sale Sunday morning but a few cars arrived at Sainsbury’s car park. None of them had plates on but looked like they were gathering for something! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Some of the cars we had on the run with us, most not quite as sporty as the one's at LostSoul's meet 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
