With previous status there were many restrictions. Only for shows, events, marriage, ceremonies and from home to repair shop and back.

 

 

 

I still wonder how a 80-70 years old car will pass the MOT here, the engineers will check it based in which standards?

Depends.

Thought you might like the following video, one of the members of our car club for decades, who like other members take their vehicles to shows to actually drive them, rather than static polished display, and take out anyone on a Sporting Bears Dream Rides passenger ride on the roads of the land for a donation to children's charities in the UK.  Not all club members have quite that collection, some only one humble "classic" and a few without even one "classic" or sportscar but still volunteer their time and presence to help raise the funds with all the less exciting aspects needed.

 

The video. -

IF i had the money to buy and modify a car i would choose the Nissan 240Z-260Z.

Full modification: new injection engine, new suspension-wheels and tyres-exhaust-lights (no cover), hydraulic steering wheel, electric mirror, air condition, new bucket seats, electric windows, new inner door panels, modified central console, insulation, chassis reinforcement etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

They were Nissan 240 and 260 (Zed, not Zee) over here, I always liked the look of them as a lad but they're too American with the dash (and we' will not mention the lardy American 280Z) plus they're a tin top, Fuel-injection may be more sensible but what the point of being sensible with such a car, you want to hear and feel the carbs.

 

IIRC at some point for an anniversary Nissan bought back 50? old 240(?) and restored them to sell on at below cost.
