At the Family History Centre we have a great view, through some large picture windows, into a cobble-stone street called the 'Mews'.
The used-to-be carriage barns are all now houses that are valued at upwards of £2m. One day last week I looked out and saw a remarkable car. With camera in hand I went for a look.
The car turned out to be a 1930 Talbot, and not just any old Talbot, but the one that competed in the 1930 Le Mans 24-hour race and took 3rd place. It looked totally in original condition without any restoration. Here are a few pictures and the race results.

Wouldn't it be great to ride through the English countryside in that!
Oh, that would be great to go for a ride in it. The gentleman was not too friendly so I don't think that will happen. Jim was lucky to be able to take a few pictures.
I hope you all enjoy the shot of the "mews" I can't believe they cost so much. It is crazy!!
That was worth the mission right there huh Dad?! Cool car!
Very cool. I'm sure that car was talked about quite a bit between you and Don! You may need to go private since you got some random comment. weird.
