Wow - very tidy! That's a nice piece of kit. I'm very jealous.

As for "other toys".... My wife says I'm only allowed one toy at a time! I've got a little Kubota tractor but I'm not going to embarrass myself by following your picture with that!

Here is my other toy, very different from my 411  :)
 
200 bhp, 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds when the 411 only just manages half that but then it does only have a fraction of the bhp.

Just been looking at a Alvis in action on you tube Shaun, what a machine !  Bet it puts a right smile on you face every time you see it.

I've put a couple of videos on YouTube, one where I'm crossing a ditch, and another where my friend got stuck and I had to pull him out.
Yes they do make you smile, especially the look on people's faces as you meet them driving down the small lanes!
If they were not so guzzle I would be out in it every weekend!

At least I can do that when I bring the mog home!  ;)

When the stalwart was in production, the German army was considering buying them. One of the tests they demanded was to drive one off a pier at 30 mph! (it feels like hitting a brick wall when you hit the water at speed!)

Now that is a nice collection.  :)
New challenges every month, but driving one cannot be beaten.
