A bit Slower than a Trophy perhaps??

Tinker and I spent 5 hours driving this 1923 Royce back to where we live from Toulouse yesterday in the sun shine, different and very enjoyable !!

Ah, proper motoring.

 

[eljeffo64]

Yep, slow, smelly and a stop every 30 miles to grease up the engine - fantastic !!

 

[hoolio]

I sometimes get more driving joy from trundleing around in the 5 than trying to hustle the T through the traffic, although the 5 does do the hurry up.

Know what you mean, same for me in my old Range Rover, 3.9 litres of auto V8; great for a leisurely mooch!

god, i'm entering this club now... i do the same in the 540.... just plod around, enjoying the torque of the engine.. no need to race.. "the world will get by all by itself while i enjoy the scenery"...

Nice isn't it! I get the same on 2 wheels if I go for a ride on the Harley after the Ducati - think I enjoy the mooching more than the rushing about these days (track days excepted) - getting old(er)
