It's been a while since I posted on here, so I thought I should again. I live in south west France and own a 1935 PA, which I bought from Ray Masters two or three years ago. Yesterday I had a nice drive from my home to the Nogaro race track for the classic festival. The car ran very well, as always, covering about 130 miles of empty roads, typical of rural France. Once home I drained the oil and filled with fresh. I filled it through the breather, a tip given to me by Ray. It saves flooding the rocker box and possibly getting oil on the dynamo.

Nice to see the PA, I wish the UK roads were as empty and with such a good pothole free road surface and such clear road markings.
I bet Ray would have enjoyed the trip in his old car - I would love to drive the L2 down that road.

Hi Nick. Pleased to hear the PA is (still) going well , it looks great. Glad you are making good use of it , just wish l could roll back the years ; but don’t we all. . Enjoyed the photos of your day out at Nogaro. The view from the cockpit brings back many memories of both the car and of those long , straight French roads . Thanks for posting . Keep well . Ray.
