But one area we were missing, and we've a received a number of emails recently asking the question, is why no classic tractors ???!!! So we thought, and we said well why not !

It's Christmas morning and we've opened the curtains to see if Santa Claus has brought a Maserati Sebring or even an Alfa Romeo 105 2000 GTV, but no ! Maybe he couldn't fit them in his sack ! We'll have to write to him again next year ! But we hope you all got what you wished for, whether it be a part for your MG, a handbook for your Triumph or at least a latest classic model from Corgi or Scalextric. We'd love to thank everyone who's visited My Classic this year, and we hope you've enjoyed what you've seen. We keep adding to the collection and we've got some great plans for 2021. So even if we can't get out to the classic car shows in early 2021, then at least we can offer you a virtual classic car show instead ! Merry Christmas everyone !

Scalextric have just announced four new models for Christmas, but since it's only a few days to the big Ho Ho Ho, we think it's more attractive for someone to spend their Christmas money on in the New Year !!! Scalextric have always been famous for producing accurate models of sports and racing cars in a constant 1/32 scale over the years and these latest arrivals certain add to their reputation. First we have the Lotus Evora GT4 from 2019 in Gulf Edition livery and has the number C4183. One of the most famous and iconic sponsors in motorsport history, Gulf are synonymous with winning and GT racing. As are Lotus.

Streetscene – MGB GT V8
Posted By: Simon Sage | Posted On:
Nipped out at the weekend to get a haircut in the local village and outside this garage was this gorgeous 1975 MGB GT V8. One of only 2,591 made between 1973 and 1976 and they were all kept in the UK. They never built a left hand drive version for export to the US. It was fitted with the same Rover V8 engine that powered the Rover P5b 3.5 Litre, it had a whopping 137 bhp producing 192 ft lbs of torque, which propelled it from 0-60 mph in 7.7 seconds, which was pretty quick for the mid 1970's ! It had a top speed of 125 mph, but the downside was you'd struggle to get 20 miles per gallon ! But it was launched at the start of the 1970's fuel crisis and although it was loved by many enthusiasts, they just couldn't afford the running costs, so it faded away. But with the limited number, they're very collectable now, with good models fetching £25k plus.
