Mr H Sceptre Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Was just getting rid of a load of crap off my laptop & realised I've got a fair few spots on there. So I thought i'd better do the decent thing & get them posted. M ostly all snapped in & around Leicester. l taken on my phone, so not the best quality.... First up, a big ol' yankee Ford Country Squire M'collegue Mr Leyland's Audi 100 Mk IV Cortina in scrapyard A good friend of Autoshite's Daf 33 I really love this, Fiat 133, pretty damned rare as well Cortina about to fill up Really shagged MkI Escort Tranny camper Tidy Golf. These MkI's are growing on me A capable load carrier - 305 van Can you tell what it is yet? Its a MkI Escort! Your guess is as good as mine. Perfect condition Vauxhall Ventura This Interceptor has seen better days I see this quite a bit, a real beaut - Beta Coupe Leyland truck, rotting in a field Concourse condition Marina A lovley vintage Riley Not usually a big Porshe fan, but this is nice Mint condition Renault 5, parked (ver badly) right outside by gaff. Vel Satis Nice Riley Kestral at a show http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu308/NRTON/RileyyKestral.jpg Sorry, a bit far away - Cortina & Capri http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu308/NRTON/Scrapyard-CortinaEstateCapri2.jpg Standard 8??? http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu308/NRTON/Standard.jpg Suberb Solara http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu308/NRTON/TalbotSolara.jpg Abandoned TR7 http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu308/NRTON/TriumphTR7s2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr H Sceptre Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 Yep, the very same J-J.Bruntingthorpe itself is worth a visit for old planes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mash Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Doesn't the Marina look small in comparison to all the other cars around it? Even the Corsa to an extent. Could be the high backs of the two Fords in relation to the Marina's boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycox Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 VENTORA! Although it's not one anyway, it's a Victor 2000. I'd still love it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr H Sceptre Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 Yeah, the Marina is a regular round Fosse Park. Think that photo is at Sainsbury's car park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Heheheh, I has pics of (from top) Yank Ford (minus vinyls on door)Green GolfGreen Escort when there was slightly less junk hiding itThe mangled scrap - Which I think might be a Toyota Tercel going by the rimsBetaBig bastaad truckDerelict Capri/Cortina comboAnd the Solara in a Thurmaston driveway next to an Alpine, I comprehensively creamed 'em when I saw that pair.There's a number of shite cars I saw in Leicester but didn't photograph for one reason or another (lack of courage in pikey neighbourhood/drove past too quickly/dying cameraphone refusing to take the pic), I keep kidding myself that one day I'll go back and check out whether they're still there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
