A few pictures of the car during this year’s edition of Club Triumph’s 10 Countries Run,
including a glimpse of the damage sustained to the car during this event
Another year over and time for my traditional calendar post. Compared to the previous two years, 2022 should have been a better year from a “driving-my-TR7's” point of view. And it sure was till early September, when the DHC was badly damaged in a head on collision in the mountains of Northern Italy. Hopefully 2023 has some more positive moments in store.
So as 2022 draws to a close it is a good time to look back over the 12 years since I finished the restoration of the car in 2010. And what better way to do that, than with a selection of some of my favourite pictures taken during the many trips I enjoyed in my home area and abroad.
Inside the Flimserstein Tunnel (8-9-2010 CH).
Homeward bound during her inaugural Alpine tour after the restoration was completed.
Sunrise on top of the Sankt Gotthard Pass (9-9-2011 CH)

And of course there was the rather time consuming business called work. Here the Defender took all the credits for getting me around!
between the villages of Heibloem and Roggel. And this project will continue well into 2023 (19-10-2022 NL)
