n This morning at 10am, a small group of Scottish Austin-Healey club members leave the Mull of Galloway on a tour to Dunnet Head, a genuine southernmost-to-northernmost run through mainland Scotland, disregarding the usual side-step to John O'Groats.
Today's route takes the cars via Biggar and the Forrestburn hill climb course, then on to Blairgowrie. Saturday's run is by Glenshee and the Lecht towards Culloden and a stop in Ullapool. Monday's route goes via Durness and the north coast into Caithness.
Cars taking part include Sprites and 3000s, and one of the rare Riley-engined Westland models from Healey's pre-Austin days.
n Doune Motor Museum hosts a Classic Autofair on Sunday. Starting at 10am, it features a major concourse event as well as a classic car auction. It is also the finish point for a series of runs.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
