I remember the Lada challenge too. Problem is you need something odd as these events like Goodwood, Mille Miglia are now the preserve of the tw@ts in tweed caps taking Instagram selfies while their paid mechanics clean the windscreen.
I was at scrutinerring at Oulton Park and there was a Cobra infront of me, what they go for now, a million? No sign of the owner just “his” team. So I was having a look around and could tell straight away it would pass as the belts are mismatched.
Cobra gets to the front of the line and scrutineer asks to see the signing on chit. Not there, driver not turned up. Wait around 10 minutes for the idiot to arrive. Low and behold “your belts are mismatched”.
He goes off on one about how important he is and how rare the car is. FFS put the champagne down stop pretending you’ve just arrived from the grouse shoot or had your arm up a cow’s bottom and put some effort into your car!
