Its there to stay as a mantle piece only....so dont expect it to roll an inch further!

As I roll past it I am always amazed how small it looks... could almost be mistaken for a scaled down model !

1. New driver. Doesnt know the route.
2. May be the gate guardian from the tunnel entrance making a bid for freedom.
3. "For sale, one careful driver.."

I must say it makes my regular trips between LHR and MAN a little less tedious being able to see a Concorde at each end of the trip... The one at MAN lined up behind the flying school Pipers and Robins makes for a good picture.
