Interestingly in 1990 over 35 million cars were built worldwide. These bare statistics cannot do justice to the way the motor car has taken us over. Things were to get worse though, as despite the introduction of the parking meter in 1935 in the US would not come to Britain until 1958. Classic cars are big business nowadays, perhaps not as big as they were in the late 80's boom when cars were making ridiculous quantities of money. If you could get all the cards from this series under one garage roof you would be looking at an enormous quantity of money.
People become obsessive about cars and it is very difficult for anyone else to understand.
I am a fan of the Triumph TR6. My mate likes the VW Beatle, neither of us can understand the other, such is life. We drink together but do not discuss religion, politics, cars or women. Okay so I lied about one of them on the list and not necessarily the same one, depending on what night it is. Independent suspension by coil springs is used both fore and aft.
