My Father was a bit of a car enthusiast and I have certainly inherited his petrol-head gene.
He owned two MGB GT's, two Bentley's, and he acquired one of the last Series 3 Type Jaguars to roll off the production line in 1973 for £3,500.
He then asked a policeman mate of his on which vehicle the plate 'KBJ 1' was registered, turned out it was to a Farmer who owned a tractor in Great Yarmouth. They agreed on £25, and my Father told the farmer he could keep the tractor!
He also acquired the 'matching' 1 KBJ plate for the 'runaround' car.
