Not to mention a Wolseley Hornet - I have a a bit of a soft spot for the Hornet and the Elf
I was quite surprised to see the Countryman - there are some pictures on Facebook of the build by Owens Fabrication. When I have looked in the past it seemed that most touring car series included a regulation along the lines of "2+2, estate and van models not permitted" - can anyone shed any light upon this? I assume because those models are not "touring cars" per se - obviously in this case Goodwood can choose whichever models they like for their grid, but what about the regular Pre-66 series?
I wonder if there are any period examples of those models racing, surely it has happened in club level events.
