Ferry find...

• 

Ferrying to & back from the UK (Hook-Harwich or Calais-Dover) can be a drag but it has its bright sides. More than often one stumbles over cars and bikes that make the same trip. Like this Hillman Imp in soft rally trim. Nowadays you will never ever see an Imp in Holland so this was a nice surprise to us. We have vivid memories of the manager of these cars racing at Zandvoort some 25 years ago. This  blue over white baby seems in fine fettle and after coming back home we checked the website script of the rear window. The owner Hayo Kloos changed his hobby into work and is now restoring mostly british cars on a daily basis. According to the old Dutch registration this Imp is on the road since 1968. Many happy return, you little great 'GS'. More than you want to know about Imps is to be found at Imps4ever. Now let's see what ferry finds we'll see next week when on our way to Beaulieu's Autojumble.
