  We've been adding more to HJClassics - and there's more to come 4 Nov 2013 (News)
  The unimaginatively titled Our Classic Cars section is devoted to our capers in he old cars the we own ourselves - and although it's currently listed to just my rag-tag fleet, it will expand as the site expands. Currently I'm running a Lancia Delta Integrale, a Citroen XM is joining in as - hopefully - my reliable winter workhorse, and there's also a Toyota Celica GT-Four, which I reckon must be the emerging classic performance car bargain of the decade. Well it is, if my experiences are anything to go by.

  Gerry Crown was impressive in the big Leyland P76, barrelling through the soft sand, covering those digging their Volvo out of a bog in clouds of dust… the driver of the white VW, Garrick Staples, was awesomely quick, flicking from side to side over the ruts in the sand maintaining traction, and the 1974 World Cup Rally winning Big Citroen DS23 (below) just hoisted up its skirts on its adjustable suspension and glided through anything remotely difficult. It doesn’t take much time for the shortcomings of preparation to show themselves.
