Vin Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Somebody posted this film footage to my facebook timeline and I thought it was worth posting about. I then watched the other films uploaded by the same poster...Quite addictive to watch and I had forgotten how many Mercedes TN vans there used to be about... srad34, AlabamaShrimp, inconsistant and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vin Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Mainly taxis, but worth it for the bit of 'Level 42' to set the scene at the end... michael t 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlo Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Renault 14TS & Isuzu Piazza spotted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sterling Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Rover 820 fastback E4?? NLM (?) and Isuzu Piazza, specifically a White one, I wonder if it's the earliest shot of Dugong's actual Piazza? Second vid, Blue Rover 800, D660FF? I really want a Mk1 800 back on the road.

michael t Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Some excellent footage there, I was flat out on the DVLA website checking if any still survived. Haven't found any so far but there was a blue Toyota van that was first registered in 1986 and lasted a fairly commendable 20 years until it died in 2006. That was the most recent i could find....

mercrocker Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 The first Routemaster in Traffic Heavy Trafalgar Square must surely still be around.... JJD475D was used for somebody's wedding May last year but is now showing untaxed since June. Good game this, who would have thought FX4s would be so compelling?

hennabm Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Fabulous footage and a few E30s to be seen as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadworkUK Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 That 480ES in the first video looks like it just arrived from the future, and I could smell that Leyland National at the beginning of the second video from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vin Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 Glad you enjoyed them Here are a couple more from the same channel - Dartford Tunnel related... A bit slow to begin with but it becomes a right 'Truckfest'. Series 3 Land Rover 'Tunnel Control' vehicle too... Toll Booths - 60p by the look of it...(Personal best for me is probably the MK1 Panda - B902 VKM a minute in...) hennabm and garycox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hennabm Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 The first one of the tunnel is great - a GS, E3/E9 BMW, Fuego all in the same queue. Fab. The second one even has R14 powaaah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
