I'm just down the road in Stilton? Been there the last couple of years and found so little P38 stuff that I'm not bothering this year.

Yeah, there's never any P38 stuff. Don't think I saw ANY this year.

Wasn't looking for anything particular, just a nice day out with the family :)

Always keep an eye out though, just in case.

Parked next to a guy in a green P38 with a stainless steel exhaust. I said his sounded nice and he said "It's a Vogue 50, whatever that means, with the Cosworth V8" which baffled me a bit.

What's this Cosworth V8 all about? Or is it just a clueless owner?

He's just clueless but it may have had one of the 8 grand Coscast blocks that RPi were selling. They were cast by Cosworth but were still identical to a standard block, just made with a bit more care than a production block. Only problem was they still used standard liners so despite the claims by RPi, although liners didn't slip they could still leak into the combustion chamber.
