Vintage cars.
Yesterday was like the very first time I saw and rode in an authentic vintage car. Heh. It's such a privilege. Even though it's like 72 years old, it's still alive and kicking! HAHAHA. It belongs to my mummy's friend, Uncle Seow. He was so nice and took us for a spin in it. It sure felt good feeling the wind in your hair.
It's an Armstrong Siddeley manufactured in 1936. Uncle Seow said it's the only kind here in South East Asia. Cool.
Again, I didn't bring my camera out with me. I seriously have to cultivate this habit of bringing it with me everywhere I go. LOL. Thank God someone had a camera so as usual, several photos and videos were taken. I love the sound the horn makes! It's really cute.

Oh it's gorgeous.
The horn is so cute! Like the circus kind. LOL
With mummy and her friends. LOL
That's not all, this very car was used to drive F1 racer, Sebastian Vettel, who came in 5th in the grand prix, during the vintage car parade before the race started (that explains the name to the side of the car). Nice.
