Angrydicky Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Excellent spots Gary. That Astra van is excellent, perfect for the 'Mr Bean' look. Also I love the Rapier, looks like it's had some new sills recently so hopefully it's receiving attention. The parcel taped screens must be a South Coast thing, as I'm sure Barrett spotted a car (possibly a knackered Bluebird?) with the same treatment.

Mr_Bo11ox Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Theres a kind of 'SPOTTING WARS' going off around the south coast area between two rival spotting factions. Woe betide any innocents who get caught in the cross fire. I like the Camry diesel best and would do it energetically via all possible opening panels. Also the MINI OPTIMUS BUFFET is the best car name of all time, even better than the Barrett Sexcrime. 11.6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garycox Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thread resurrection! My phone died about a year ago and took all of its contents with it... I replaced it but tried it again today and it charged OK! So I've been trawling through the old pictures and stuff. Most of these are so old the subjects probably don't even exist now, and although this is a 'spots' thread there are some of my cars, friends' cars, stuff from shows etc... Might as well put them on here rather than wasting them I suppose. There's also some stuff I uploaded to Flickr ages ago but never got round to linking them here.
