That is truly beautiful. What's the safe distance for cyclists? Gouts of flame, and an open chain drive threatening their lycra bulges.
I spent five years commuting from Chichester and used to dread the annual Goodwood "Festival of Speed".

Gorgeous car, and as you say, perfect for a stop-start journey!

I liked my old Standard 10.
Just think of all the triggered eco warriors en route, marvelous ...............
Sam - If we lived nearer it sounds like the kind of thing I'd go and watch.
Scrobs - as a tribute to modern France maybe M Macron could arrange a version of the The Marseillaise played by water cannon.
Demetrius - but could it emit great spurts of flame?
Wiggia - yes a few green heads must have burst along the way.
