Now this is a proper car! Makes my #Lagonda look like a toy, which it is! This 1930 2 litre Lagonda has been regularly raced by the lovely owner who was interviewed as part of the rebranded Mach 2 Motor show at Aerospace Bristol.
Another day of #classiccars and #Aerospace tomorrow! β€οΈ

The Westland Whirlwind and Gloster F.9/37 were the only aircraft powered by the Rolls-Royce Peregrine. Two prototypes of the F.9/37 were built, the 22nd February 1940 saw the Peregrine engined version fly, the other was powered by the Bristol Taurus.
