​It was worth the early start on Sunday to be reminded of the just how glorious it is to have a great 'A' road all to yourself, in a zinging Italian sports car, on a bright summer's morning! Andy Parsons deftly guided the Inca Alfa from Oxford to Evesham as it shot up and down the Cotswold hills and through honey-coloured villages with indecent verve - the crew giving thanks again to Toni Dwornik at each gear change for his expert work on the Weber carburettors.
