Daisy's Maiden Voyage

This is Daisy an Austin 7 that Steve hasn't driven for 46 years. The last time he drove it was when he went to school in it. He has had this car 50 years as his father bought it for him when he was 13 and he used to drive it all round the farm yard which now has houses built on it
What an occasion! Lovely capture!

Wow and I thought I had done well keeping my moped of 30 years.

What a fantastic motor! Err...I hope it doesnt have to pass emissions testing...

Wow - what a story! He must be very proud of it.

@arncliffe I would have liked to hang out the flags!
@bulldog Steve keeps most of his things from childhood! I have told him that I've got my name down to go first as I don't know how I would clear all his things out! LOL @quietpurplehaze @busylady Yes he is proud of it and has spent all week working on it to get it running again as the radiator had a leak and there were all sorts of funny things wrong!
@shepherdman It doesn't even need an MOT which is why he has got it out now so he doesn't have to worry about emissions! It has a top speed of 35 mph but I don't think we will be doing the London to Brighton run as it might take about a week to get there!

This brings back old memories. iMy first car was a 1931 Austin 7 tourerm(born same year as me!) called Boadicea, and wish I'd had somewhere to store it, but it had to go.
