"Hot Town, Summer in the City ..."

Here's a new topic for the dog days of (the northern) summer: The "The Rolling Stones and their Cars" thread.

This might be a fertile field of trivia, I am thinking of Keith Richards and his unearthly venturesome car rides in his Bently S Touring Continental, or of Charlie Watts, who doesn't hold a driving licence, but owns a collection of rare and most exclusive vintage cars that he never ever takes out for a ride, but occasionally fancies merely to sit in them and listen to the sound of their engines, clad in bespoke suits matching the cars' interiors. And what about Mick J, what kind of cars does he own, and has he ever been seen in person behind the steering wheel of car?

And all the other legendary incidents of the Stones cars were involved in.

I must have lost the picture ... And found it again ... Or maybe not ...

I love that photo of Keith.




Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.

Must be lots of them. The various books report many a story about wild car rides.

Didn't see the credits - probably Dominique Tarle probably


Think this one's Tarle too.

Hum, this is actually Mick... with his famous yellow Morgan.

I was talking about the photo above the one i posted. It was there when I made this post, but seems to have disappeared. In any event, it's the one of Keith leaning against the car in the post right below this one.

Here's another - can you tell i'm bored at work?

Charlie has a collection of unique automobiles, doesn't he? not many photos of him with them that I know of, if any....(hint hint)
