Speed limits and Austin 7s

[Parazine]

Of course modern roads are not friendly to eighty year old cars but let’s do a bit of tweaking, fit effective indicators and be adventurous — even if it’s just to buy some sausages or get a jab.

In my experience, it's the modern drivers who are not friendly to eighty year old cars. Back in the 1980's and '90's, I used an Austin 7 (and sometimes a H12/4) for almost everything, especially in the summer. Now, it seems to provoke a fit amongst the Audi, BMW and Mercedes bunch and I'm not keen to provoke them.
Last year, I was overtaken in my RK  doing a legal 30MPH in a 30 limit by an Audi. A few months earlier in the Chummy, I slowed down to match a 30 limit and was promptly overtaken by a BMW.
These drivers seem to be ruled by the "I must overtake this slow old car NOW" rule rather than watching the speed limits. 
Still, I suppose they'll lose their licences eventually with the number of radar traps and community speed monitoring groups about these days.
