That's an FB, the 101 was the FC.

Wtf, identical word for word with colnerov, and no, I hadn't read his reply first.

And I thought it was only the jokes page that had an echo!

That's what I think a 101 FC is

Rubbish photo but good racing at Dijon Prenois today for the Grand Prix de l’âge d’Or, there was even a couple of Morgans. We were quite surprised by how much classic racing seems to be dominated by the British.

I was thinking a 'Bella' by the big snout, must dig around and find one.

Ah, not too similar, but it was over 60 yrs ago I saw one...

Thing is, the Bella I remember had the fuel tank over the front wheel, like the DKR.
At school, we were allowed scooters, but not motor cycles (not sure about that logic..) and along with the usual italian stuff, bloke had a Bella, slightly exotic!

Ha ha. Unfortunately it and I are currently separated by a hemisphere. I’d love my dad to see it restored in his time … but the logistics of getting it here for me to do proved a bit difficult.

But point taken !

Had to get a mini in the shot. Some call that model (matic) rare.

Nice, I do like a Ute!

Is that an Australian built Mini?
