There's a Spitfire in a garden in Longfield. I might go chat with the old boy and see if I can arrange a photo shot. I have a red F-Type, all I need is a white one and blue one...Any takers?

I have a white one, at least it was the last time it had a wash.

Cool. I spent some time working at IBM Hursley, where the Spitfire design team was evacuated to when the Supermarine works was bombed during the war. Small world!

Couple of photos to maybe change a few minds into participating.

What a fab garden/Spitfire combo!
My car is silver, so it wouldn't work with the union jack theme.

Mine is white and I am fairly local so would be happy to participate if required.

Lovely, lot of work gone into that, must have cost a pretty penny.
Be nice to have a fly of one of the real ones
