Classic Car Comment Having counted our pennies, the official Team Retro-Speed entry has been submitted for Rallye Monte-Carlo Classique 2020. Yours truly, Robert Grounds and Guy Loveridge plus, of course, ‘Doris‘ the Daimler Conquest are due to leave Glasgow city centre on the evening of 29 January, heading south. Four days later, weather permitting, we should be dipping our toes in the blue Mediterranean. More updates to follow.
