Aldeburgh, looks pretty much the same except it's full of 4×4 that never see mud and a 100 yard long queue for the chippy , the one in Leiston high St is much better

It hasn't changed much.

Some not so toff chod at Gmünd.

 

 

It's this town where one Ferry Porsche started to make weird cars in a little sawmill.

[Junkman]

Quakenbrück when Opels were the second most sold cars in Germany.
 

 

Needless to say that you can't park there anymore:

If it's a Fiat then it probably dissolved into a pile of rust a week later!
