[Grumpy Northener]

Still on the hols in Portugal - Cascais - coast road - we did not go too far today so only a Renault 4 GTL & a Merc W123 saloon both in hearing aid biege but then a stunning Jag Mk 2 in black came rolling through - sort of made up for it.

Still on hols on the Lisbon coast :

Yesterday -

Another Peugeot 505 estate
Yet more Renault 4's
Nice red Porsche 356 - just up the coast line from Cascais
And then another 16 classics - OK in the Oeiras Car Museum - small collection but very good - couple of Ford model A's along with a 'T' roadster & a T saloon - there is also a Thunderbird for good measure - Merc 170 (30's) & a 50's SL 190, 1901 Darracq, 20's Fiat, Auto Union & Jeep in militry guise, Morris 10/4 tourer with dicky and in RHD - star of the show for us was the Citroen Traction Avent van which was really well presented - this little muesum is well worth seeking out if you are in the the area it is 5 mins down the coast road from Estoril.

Today - All in and around the town of Sintra

Citroen 2 CV - grey with red wings - very well presented
Peugeot 504 saloon in mid blue
Early Fiat Panda 4 x 4 Sisley - must be as rare as hens teeth in this format now

Driving home from school, pulling out a junction and before we do there's a "Paaaarrrrp!" from a TR4A. Me: "OMG Triumph TR4A!!!!" Then followed several more Triumphs, including a Stag, TR6s, a TR8, and a few more TR4As. The TR8 we joined behind bekoned us into a car park (where I saw that Series 1 Land Rover), so we followed and parked up. It was awesome! They all loved the V12 too
*Cough*

These pictures seem to have *ahem* interesting adverts around them, so I'll put them back on tomorrow, minus that
