As an aside to this debate, I was browsing through some editions of Thoroughbred and Classic Cars magazine today. Dating from 1975 they were cheerily reporting on the CSCC's fledgling saloon series which was allowing cars of pre-1957 design. Meanwhile the magazine was sponsoring a sports car series which allowed Cobras, Elva Mk7s and Ferrari GTOs. Some of these would have been but a decade old at the time.

And yes, the letters page was getting very animated with the debate over whether a Ford Zodiac or an MG Magnette could ever be classified as a classic car!
