Managed a drive this morning, before the
flying pigs began defecating (In other words before it started raining

)!!
Here is the Traveller at the Brecon Mountain Railway, with the water tower behind it.
This one was taken alongside Talybont Reservoir on the same trip.

Just to the left of the Bristol and still going strong. Off to Germany for the biennial Simca/Matra/Talbot meeting next month.

Pete - I liked that Singer Le Mans. You seem to have had better weather than us today. If only we in the west could trade some of our water, for some of your weather, we'd all be better off

I never saw an FA Victor with a grille surround like that.

Maybe that's because it's
not an F series Victor?
It's an
Envoy, like this one:
A Canadian car that looked a lot like an F-series in many ways, but isn't one.

Fascinating! I'm pretty sure it's a Victor though, it's RHD and has a local registration of the correct period. If I see it again I'll have to investigate further.

Canada drove on the correct side of the road at one time, not sure when that changed, maybe the car in the pictures link is owned by someone who's been to a scrapyard over there? 'Tis a curious one for sure.
