Studebaker's spots - From a Dyane to a Camargue!!

[Spiny Norman]

Random rubbish from over the years. For someone who's into both cars and photography I seem to have a fairly shite collection of photos of cars.

 

BMW 2002 Touring spotted recently in Morrisons car park.

 

This garage quite often has interesting old chod parked outside, but I'm usually in too much of a hurry to stop. Made an exception for this CX though.

 

Spotted a couple of years ago, a TVR Vixen used as a daily driver.

 

Another Morrisons car park one. Yellow FD Victor. Pos-a-Trac Torque Twisters....that takes me back!

 

Different Morrisons car park, Saab and VW Scirocco. (Slight cheat, the Saab's mine)

 

Bloke I bought my old Royale from had this lovely Rover Sterling.

 

Quick snap taken of a W123 Merc.

 

From a 35mm slide, so probably 20-odd years ago.

 

My Dad's mate being driven home after some light refreshments. Note Chrysler 180 in the background.

 

Mk1 Cav and BX, taken in Pennan (where they filmed Local Hero) sometime late 90s.

 

Went to an autotest in Doune a few years ago and saw the most expensive drinks trolley ever.

 

Dad's old Morris 1800 and the caravan I was to thump with a Princess several years later...

 

More can follow if anyone's interested.

Loving the old pics, the Clubmans with the wood strips were belters! Mum_L's one was later and had the gold go faster stripes instead.

Loving it! I like the one of Ribbek's garage - any info on where that was? Do you have any more from photos or slides?

It was in Brodick on Arran. Don't have any more pics of that site unfortunately, I do like that one though.

Few more....

 

Dad's Fiat 128. Crayford Cortina just visible in the background.

 

Where we stayed in the late 70s was basically a business area, so there were sometimes some quite posh motors parked in the street like this Camargue.

Nice shite beige colour as well!

 

 

Taken on holiday, always liked the Mk1 RX7 in that Kermit green colour.

 

 

Also on holiday, but a few years earlier. An X1/9 Lido unless I'm mistaken?

 

 

Opel Manta, driver in that classic 70s 'holding the roof on' pose.

 

 

Most of a Lotus Elite, young Studebaker's photo skills not fully developed yet.

 

 

Finally a couple from the wee garage I used to take the Amazon to, a Citroen Dyane...

 

 

..an Alfa GTV...

 

 

..and a Jaguar XK, not sure which version though.

Take a bow. Never has so much shite been managed to be captured on film (by accident) at one time .

Your XK is a 120 roadster. Lovely.
