My name's Linda Monk and I'm the proud owner of a newly built Tiger Avon, courtesy of Tiger themselves. Yeah, I know, it's cheating, but I freely admit I ain't smart enough to do it myself, even if I had the time and space. The reference to being foreign is because I live in Peterborough, although in spirit I'm a southerner having lived in Romford for the first 3 1/2 decades of my life. Still get a nose bleed every time I head home up the A1. However having recently found this site, and seen that you don't appear to discriminate against us "northerners" too much, I thought I'd sign up - seeing as how my car seems to have done so already by itself!
If you've checked out Adam Wilkins' photos from the East Anglian Tiger Owners Club's derbyshire run, that's my car he's behind in the one going through the Winatts Pass. It's also starred on the link posted by Giles Cooper to some photos taken by an interested bystander in the car park at Bakewell, on the same trip. It's kind of bright (Gulf strip ostensibly) and certainly stands out amongst the EATOC posse, although I notice it isn't dissimilar to one Mr Greenwood's Tiger. Does that get me any kudos?
I see that you do venture into this part of the country from time to time, so I will keep any eye out for road trips that could be feasible for me to join - like I need any excuse to get in my car. Had it 7 weeks and already I've used up half my alloted mileage on my insurance.... Will be ringing them soon to revise that upwards somewhat. Since getting my Tiger, I've changed my perspective on a lot of things. Camping's never really been my thing (
