:think: the film is named "Kings of Speed" - but none Rootes-crap is participating. Why?
@cl82: do you have an idea?

Probably because they were rather the "Kings of total mechanical breakdown and self-destruction", I suppose. The only thing that they had in common with speed as such was that something always went tragically wrong very, very quickly. At least that's what JfS told me.. :whistle:

They could not agree licensing arrangements with Hawkwind.

Alvis made a Speed Twenty and a Speed Twenty Five.
Bentley made a Speed Six.
Rover made a Speed Twenty.

Rootes never made a Speed anything.

Happy Birthday JFS!! [Image: birthday-cake-with-candles-smiley-emoticon.gif]

Thank you for your good wishes.

As I wobble gently into my eighth decade of life I also thank the excellent services of the N.H.S. and whatever higher being may have helped that I am still wobbling. My recent treatment must have cost about £100,000 (two multi hour operations and a total of ten weeks in hospital). Being a Brit sometimes has its good points.

Happy Birthday jfs!

Agreed about the value of the NHS jfs, it is also I think having its own 70th birthday (in July?) so celebrations all round.
