Went with my dad to pick up his nearly new Mondeo and they were using this as an advertising vehicle, 32,000 from new. Looked immaculate and unsurprisingly was getting more comments and attention than anything they had for sale.

Some winner at life has been driving this for the last 23 years:

There is a story I came across years ago that the Aerodeck design was originally going to be the next Reliant Scimitar, but was rejected by Reliant. If true, history might have been very different, and the Aerodeck might well have been a fibreglass shell......

So, you like Cortinas, do you?  Have a load of this Carousel.

I've seen a young guy driving it around recently who is presumably the owner, it looks mint (hah! cos of the colour...) but up close does have a few holes.  I'll stop now.

 

Talking of holes...

Terrible photo but this is a W-plate smiley Transit, it's been sat on this driveway for a very long time now, until recently I hadn't been past it for years and couldn't help but grab a quick photo seeing as someone's poked it with their foot and highlighted that the last foot of bodywork seems to be mostly crumbs.

 

Why you would want the front of your property dominated by something like this, I have no idea but each to their own.

Here's another view of that Silver Shadow. Hasn't moved in years. Wonder if it will ever make it back onto the road?

Just along the way is this mid-1980s Winnebago which rocked up before Christmas and hasn't turned a wheel since:

The area I'm looking to move to has some impeccable crud.

This had a handwritten sign in the window- "Not abandoned, owner having chemo"

There's also a street with three smiley transits I need to pap.

I like to think the owner of that last Avenger has been laboriously changing the colour of his window frames to match his new Avenger rather than the old one.
