Cool Car Of The Month Feature Is Back for 2019

As we start the new year, I'm pleased to say that back by popular demand is the Members Featured Car Of The Month which can be found on the Owners Club front end main website.

And what better way to start than with this beautifully uplifting entry by Dawn

It was meant to be, Dawn. You and Paul paid the highest price. And you, girl, are one hell of a role model. Happy and Healthy New Year to you.

Sincerely,
Glenn

What a wonderful write up.

In spite of the curve balls and sadness life throws at us, we pick ourselves up, dust ourselves down and appreciate the things in life that make us happy.

Obviously for most of us on here these cars are a portion of what adds to our happiness.

I hope you have many miles of happy motoring behind you wonderful car.

Glad to see COTM back!

Hi Dawn. Glad you made it into the hall of fame. You really are a go getter in the real meaning of the word. Never give up, that is the motto. Through your more dire times, you had your concentration on bigger things. The human spirit is indomitable when focused on achieving something. Like your car and hope to see it at the next meet at Four Ashes.
