back in the early 8o`s , when I did my anual london-trip, I tried out to find some of the famous "vintage car dealers"all the adresses, i had, had been
" mews". theese are some kind of small back-streets, hard to find, and
mostly consisting of one floor houses, the ground a garage, which can fit
8 to ten cars, the first floor office/apartement.
there, I had the chance to meet and talk to legends like dan margulies or charles howard and many others. and in each garage , you could find
a bugatti, most of them T35`s.

Hi,

The area you are talking about is more than likely around Queens Gate Place Mews. It is very near to Harrod's and the Natural History Museum.

Lovely area.

quite right you are. hard to find, but an aera which make you feel you`re in the 2o`s. and don`t forget the showrooms of coys, at the time of my visit they had two bentleys, a pre WWI silver ghost and a T35C.

regards
mike
