The cars

Oor Wullie has his bucket to sit on. I have my underdog car. This was my less-than-perfect Herald on show at Doune in 1999. I am a firm believer that you don't have to be in pristine, original condition to attend a car show, and neither does your car. Seriously, if we only exhibit concours machinery, we are going to turn some people away from our hobby because they will feel that they don't belong unless they have an immaculate piece of machinery to display.

I'm presently toying with the idea of extending these pages to include other peoples' cars. Drop me an e-mail if you have a car I could feature. Since the whole Underdog ethos is anti slavering-at-excessive-power-expensive-stonking-great-lump-the-Beamer-you-can-afford-because-it's-only-thirty-grand motoring (does that make sense?), your Allegro or Reliant Regal is more than welcome! On the other hand, perhaps you have a motoring disaster for the Underdog hall of infamy. See the "there's always someone stupider than me" page.


"On his motor he sits and smiles / but the laugh's on him for he'll get piles!"

(People who have jumped here from a Scimitar site can play "spot the Reliant" in the background. The Kittens were always mauling the opposition in the Doune Autotest.)
