Thanks Gatekeeper for some great pictures of my car.

Now I've got to keep her like it for the wife to show off.

Thanks again for your best wishes.

Regards

So sorry you have to give up the drivers seat but I admire your positive outlook.

Also, you've still got every reason to stay on the forum!

I thank you for your hospitality.

For the benefit of the other members who have never seen Alf's car, here are a few photos of Alf's beautiful 75.





So sorry to hear that. That would break my heart not being able to drive that stunner a credit to him ??

So sorry you have to finish with the driving because of your health. If it is any consolation to you, i suppose that all us "old uns" dont really look forward to the day that it happens to us, but i have, like you,adopted the attitude that if it does happen then so be it, and it must be for the best. If it helps just a little, my wife does not drive, so i would have to sell my Rover 75 which would break my heart. So onwards and upwards .And best of luck and a happy new year to you and you beloved.

I'm very sorry to hear of your illness and at having to stop driving. I remember my grandmother said that was the biggest thing to effect her after my grandfather passed away, the time when she had to give her licence up. I wish you well and please don't get too down about it.
