[Fot] Watkins Glen - September

[dustin nicholson]

Greg,

I rented a 69 Jag E Type 2+2 in London a few years back from Love Classics, you can find them online. We had a nice day cruising the Southern England country side except that the number 3 SU was leaking worse and worse as the day went on and boy could we smell it! Left handed shifting was surprisingly easy, driving in London not so much. Not sure if there is a back seat for the kids but yours might be too big anyway.

In the less thrilling category, we rented a 1970 something Citroen 2CV in Paris last year from a company called the translation of “4 wheels under an umbrella”. Although it’s often fading brake pedal was thrilling at times.
