Travels

[Chris Spencer]

I am on my travels this week and I am always interested in how the classic car scene is taken in other countries so probably like most of us I always keep a keen eye out for the odd classic - I am in Budapest and so far apart from the occasional 60's / 70's Trabant & the odd Wartburg - (apologies - unsure on the spelling of these things) there is the odd 70's Peugeot 305, plus a couple of 60's 404's, a really nice 70's 1303 S VW beetle but an even better V12 5.3 Jaguar E type series 3 convertable passed me yesterday along with some huge 70's Caddilac thing - Alas no Jowetts yet but there is obviously a good following for the classics over here as the newagents stands are packed full of all the well known UK / US classic car magazines.
