30 Years of Davrians

Post by Iain »

Hi All,
It was really good to see so many Davrians and their owners in one place at the Combe 50th Anniversary get together.
Got me thinking about the Davrains I have driven / owned in the last 30 years . That set me rummaging in old photos. So thought I'd share a few..

Sadly this one didn't come to the re union 50th Celebrations so no current picture.

Here are a few other pictures of the Mark 5 at play and one showing how many Davrians you could get in one place back then ..

I rather like the comment over the Mark 8 at Donnington in the ford advert "Cars with a Future", seems rather appropriate.....

Cheers all

Usual Davrian waving paw at onlookers attention-seeking behaviour! :lol:

Has anyone ever tried fitting decent adjustable double wishbone front suspension with an anti-roll bar?

It'd probably go round corners even quicker....something like this, a mate's race Caterham on which he designed this improved system...
