MANY of you have written asking for suggestions for the perfect Sunday car. The Sunday car used to be a big thing. It was something you had in your garage, or a rented garage somewhere.
Very early on Sunday you would sneak out of bed, grab the keys and head off to roads and byways where you were pretty confident the constabulary was not patrolling. They were cars such as MGAs, Austin Healeys, Triumph TR2s or a Daimler SP 250.
Today we're all older and the pressures on us are immense. No one drives a Premier or a Futura (even if they still made them). Everyone drives a BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Porsche, Lexus or a Ssanyong.
Your first chance to redeem yourself in front of the rest of us comes next weekend down at Bonhams' new and very grand showroom in Bond Street. London's Bond Street of course.
Up for sale is a tastefully painted yellow car. It's only had two previous drivers. Ross Brawn designed the car and plonked a nice Ford V8 in right behind the driver's seat. You may remember Rosco. He had some success in the racing car industry, including responsibility for Michael Schumacher's brilliant career.
It was 22 years ago when Michael Schumacher drove his way to his first F1 podium, in Mexico. It was 20 years ago, almost to the day, that Schumacher gained his first drivers championship after winning the Australian Grand Prix. His family is now confident he will recover from his ski crash.
