No doubt you've already read (and looked at the pictures) our entry on the Bromley Pageant of Motoring back in June. One car we left out of those images was this great little Anglia put together by Ol' Skool Rodder Keith Dorbon. Bromley's one-make parking concept has it's advantages and disadvantages - it works brilliantly until you get a massive line up of almost identical classics when it can all get a bit, well...boring. The Anglia section isn't quite at the level of the MGB or Stag line up, but it takes quite a car to really stand out...Keith's Anglia was that car. We fired the usual questions at Keith to find out more about him and his impressive old skool Anglia.
