Lovely!

Oh for the days when you could see what make a car was even if it wasn't close - nowadays even if you look at the badges you can't always tell!

Actually Bobbi, I did have to look at the badge! Taz thought it was a Jaguar & I thought maybe Alvis.

That particular petrol station always seems to have interesting cars in it. It's on the way out of Guildford, heading towards Leatherhead & Dorking. Newlands Corner is just up the road, which is a local beauty spot that attracts lots of bikes & cars at weekends, so maybe they're going there.
Nice to see machines like that still being used.

The Jenson Interceptor had a 440 Chrysler motor, often transplanted into British owned American muscle cars.
