Hillman Imp wins a prize!
October 10th, 2011The Hillman imp driven by Paul Coulter and Stephen Colvil was lucky enough to pick up a prize at a recent rally. The superbly run road event by Caledonian Classic and Historic Motorsport Club called the Scottish Mountain Challenge was a tough test of endurance. Despite having the smallest engine of the 36 competitors, at just 875cc, and a snapped throttle cable, the little imp completed all the stages and hillclimbs on the 250 miles cross country event. Thanks to all involved and the organisers for a great day.
