Hoddam Castle near Dumfries.

A Rover 16 Cabriolet circa 1939 (I believe) and a Rover 216 Cabriolet definitely 1993.

Two very nice photo's, interesting to note that the very same tree is visible in both photographs, just a mere 63 years apart!

Your cabby looks in very good nick too I better add! :D

Is that a personalised plate?

Thank for the kind words.

The castle is only about 20 minutes from where I live, and I often go there on a bike ride.

I came across the picture on eBay and thought it worth buying thinking that I could replicate the picture.

Yes a private plate, the car is K reg, I got it to match my daily driver, a Subaru Forester, that plate being my Wife & Daughters initials, with J being mine & the 28th my birthday!!!

Well, you have to do something in retirement!
