Today I popped to a little Unit near to where I live where magic happens. First of all my Arosa becomes low......  and then it gets to meet an absolute legend:  The mighty Mayday!! After a lay up of unspecified length all it took was 5 litres of fuel and it fired up and could be moved: (Click pictures for videos)  then I even got a ride out in it!!!:  Then it got tucked up underneath the qwertina:  with some friends:  Who knows you might even get to see Mayday out and about this weekend! Huge thanks to Andy Scaryoldcortina for putting up with me for yet another afternoon(!!) and for taking me out in the legendary Mayday. Can't wait to see it at Metrocentre meets again......maybe I'll park the qwertina next to it  |

Oh no - it's got a brakelight off!
I did grin at the random bit of Willie Nelson sneaking into the first vid ;D

To get a standard A40 this low, you'd have to dig a hole to put it in |

That brings back memories of how lightning fast Andy was building it. Brilliant car and one of the true RR greats.

Good to see it back out being enjoyed  It looks and sounds an absolute hoot to drive. I'm more than a bit gutted I can't get to the retro show this weekend to see it in the flesh. Arosa looks a whole lot better now too ;D |
