It’s funny what you find in your loft sometimes.
Toy cars are fun when your young and still fascinating when your not so spritely. They bring back a lot of memories, most of the fond ones anyway.

I’m not sure whether this Lamborghini was ever actually my toy – it was probably my son’s. Nevertheless there’s something nice and classical about these Matchbox models. I won’t be parting with it.

This one stems back a decade or two but it’s just lovely and sleek, a bit like the ‘real thing’ one would suppose.

Beautiful, and it sets your imagination going too, You know – Monaco, St. Tropez, the Ligurian coast, Amalfi, Sorrento. Ah well.

Your post reminds me of my hidden wish to own a classic, restored Ford Mustang. My better half fulfilled my desire in her special way . . . a calendar filled with images of iconic Mustangs.

Thank you for your response. Yes, I know what you mean, I’m not necessarily a ‘car person’ but there’s something liberating about the thought of owning one, like a Mustang, and setting off without any idea of where you’re going… Thank you!
