I remember as a kid looking out for the new cars on 01/08.

Had a neighbour who always got a new car every three years. Always kept in the garage. Apart from on 01/08. He was one of those that would go to the showroom just after midnight on 01/08 to collect his new car. Then would have it parked on his DRIVE so 'we' could all see it first thing in the morning.LOL

Not seen a 59 in the flesh - cos I'm in France............... However I was sent a pic' by 'Dad-In-Law' yesterday, of his 59 plate Suzuki Alto!!
