Looks great glad you went for a T6 rather than a MP, fantastic colour mix and 5 years peace of mind
Some had to say this - might as well be me:
Jen - What's it all about?........Alfie!
Maybe you had to be around in the 60's to get it.
Have fun in Alfie.![]()
Looks stunning.Never ask an historian to name anythingYou get the hour lecture with it .....
I am no monarchist. I chose Albert as a tongue in cheek name, made in Germany but looking after a regal lady. However the vehicle soon lived up to Albert's finer qualities, dependable, reliable, trustworthy... and almost a feeling of consumate loyalty.
If son of Albert does the same, will I be happy.
Someone who from early childhood displayed a precocious intelligence, Brave and fearless almost to the point of Reckless.
Someone Who loved all things naval, joined on merit not on privilege and rapidly promoted as a highly capable naval officer, until the quasi political appointment of Admiral of the Fleet.
A passionate traveller and explorer, the first member of the royal family to visit Australia (Where a would-be assassin's bullet nearly ended everything), South Africa, India, Ceylon: never happier than when travelling, especially with his beloved Royal Navy.
Finally someone who put duty above self, Reluctantly, with some bitterness, left his beloved Royal Navy and his Beloved GB to fill the vacant slot of Duke of Saxe-Coburg.
Ladies, Gentlemen, fellow travellers and explorers ..... May I introduce ...

Very nice Jen, looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.
Looks fab GJ. Congratulations to you and welcome to Alfie. Without the number plate yet, was it delivered home on a trailer?
With the two tone, I wonder which colour is listed on the V5C? #confused
Love to two tone, so glad we did not lose you to Mercedes
Great looking van. Pic of him towing the caravan too please.
Love the name
Ah! I can see. You used grey to obscure. Had to look close to see thatThank you, It does have a number plate but I just obscured it. As a single female that often declares where she is going on public forums like this I'm a bit wary of disclosing my registration.
I drove it home today, a nice 200 mile run, and tomorrow / Friday I have a 500 mile round trip planned with a britstop so we will know each other quite well by Saturday.
