Replica Talbot in Land's End to John O'Groats drive

Help

A Lincolnshire man is driving from Land's End to John O'Groats in a replica 1920s racing car to raise money for improvements to his local church.

Colin Wilson from Scampton has spent the last five years building the car which is based on a 1926 Talbot 700 and has an estimated top speed of more than 160mph (257kph).

He is driving the 1,000 mile (1,600 kilometre) route to raise money to pay for improvements to toilet facilities at the Church of St John the Baptist in the village.
