^^^ I knew that later Scimitar only from photos, but judging from that pic above, how small are these? Looks smaller than a mx5?

I would say they are of a similar size to a MX5. I think the sloping front makes it look smaller.

Maybe that bloke in the scimitar isn't the tiniest either.

Went downtown to our datacenter recently, and this clean MGB was waiting when I came out... Always good to see a steel bumper MGB in the wild, and it really makes my small truck (Nissan D22 Frontier/Navarra) seem huge.

Rough old tank still earning its keep. Got given a little goodie bag on the Mercedes Owners Stand at the NEC. Had a couple of magazines in it and whilst flicking through there are a couple of photos of this car, appears to be a known car in Mercedes circles. Its been converted to run on vegetable oil and has 560000 miles on the clock.

On a dealer's lot in Hebden Bridge. £32000 IIRC in case anyone's interested. They also had a couple of T25s but I didn't pay much attention to them.

GMC Camper This looks the spit of the one I saw earlier this year in Maidstone and couldn't get a photo of at the time. Probably the first and last time I'll ever see one in the wild.
