Neil's Page

This was my first Midge. Started in 1985? it took eight months to complete, evenings and weekends, AND I was working full time.

It was a Triumph Herald 1147, on a shortened, narrowed  Spitfire chassis.

I rarely had the hood up, even in Winter. Thinking back, it was mostly that the visibility through the rear window was so bad!

The cost was £750 including road tax and insurance. Not quite the figure on the advert.,  but not so far off.

 I clocked up 36 miles each day over the next three and a half years.
