Default Touring in a classic car

With summer not so far away, I hope many owners will be looking to use their cars.
We have a trip to Sweden next month with a visit to the Volvo factory in the plan.
Here is a photo (pre-covid) touring in our P1800 on the return from the North Coast 500 in Scotland.
Happy motoring to all!

Had to look up North Coast 500 on Google. Rather like a significantly longer version of the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island in New Scotland (Nova Scotia). Looks spectacular. Have to add it to the visit list if I ever get on an airplane again.

My wife is from up that way and we have family up there so been going there for years. Beautiful part of the world.

Embo beach from the weekend. Me and boofhead.

"Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island in New Scotland (Nova Scotia)."

Oh, Wow!

St. Johns, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland have always been out of reach. But I was hoping to drive to St. Johns this summer in the two seater.




But my wife wanted to see the L’Anse aux Meadows viking settlement/ruins at the northern tip of Newfoundland. Not within reach. So we are flying in and renting a small SUV instead.

But definitely need to add Cape Breton Island to the bottomless bucket list.
