Ravishing Red Austin Healey

Vintage Cars At The North Devon Show


Today I spent the day supporting my friend, who was promoting her business at the North Devon Show in Umberleigh, Devon. (More of that later).

One of the competitions involved vintage cars. It was a bit tricky taking decent photographs as there were so many people milling around but here's the best four.

I'm not sure what they all were but I'm sure the car aficionados amongst you will set me straight. 😂

Ford Consul

From a distance I thought this was a Ford Cortina which was my first car. This is what attracted me to the vintage cars in the first place. But it turned out to be a Consul. 😁

I used to do a lot of county & agricultural shows back in my day & I learned to drive in a Morris Traveller so thats worth a vote alone. :)

the Austin Healey wins best of show! gorgeous car. I don't want to project my feelings on you but I think nostalgia for old cars you once owned is a sure sign of growing old lol

Agreed @steven-patrick. Although most things these days seem to be a sure sign of growing old! 😢 😂

all the signs are pointing in the same direction for me... no denying it anymore haha

ha! great cars, love the Austin Healey, that Morris thing with the wood on the side, classic! ha we used to call the "woodies". great fun gillianpearce!

They would have been even better @janton, if only the Great British public didn't keep getting in the way.

There were a number of other very photogenic cars but I grew impatient waiting for people to move out of the way and so moved on. 😂

howdy today @gillianpearce! the problem is your refined British manners. Over hear I could just yell "hey! ya'll wannna get the hell out of the way for second while I snap some photos?!" and that would do it. lol.
I thought they turned out very good under the circumstances.

Why thank you kind sir! 😁

yes Ma'am and you pulled it off without having to act like a rough redneck bully from the United States! You did it in your refined, polished, British etiquette!

I don't know what they all are but they are so cool

My first cAar was also a ford but an escort not a cortina
