In Gravesend this ''yellow'' petrol sherpa has been off the road since 2010.

Now i like old shite as much as the next man but i wouldn't want this scabby thing blocking the day light entering my lounge for the last six years.

This Escort was around the corner from the Sherpa the african chap who's drive it was turning green on said he used to buy and export vehicles to Africa and this was one he bought but never got around to putting it on a boat and has sat for nearly two years.

Interesting spot out on my rounds today! When is a Citroën Ax not a Citroën Ax?......When it morphs itself in to an Aixam Mega. Had only ever seen a picture of one if these years and years ago!

Yes it's a Dublin reg from June – Oct 1972.

 

What I was saying is that the Irish Revenue/DH&LG are shit at data entry too.

Two tone saloon is a MkV Jaaaag and judging by the screen (as you probably suspect yourself)  the MG sports job looks a bit more like an RMB Gentry or similar rather than an actual TF..... 

 

I didnt realise there was an ugly modern Croma as well as the rather nicer looking Saab 9000 clone I associate with the name!

LOL at that MG 1100 vehicle data!   It's as if the clerk simply threw every model name and number against it to be sure, shame he left off Magnette really.

.... I could find a Magnette attractive, and not just an 'old nail'.

... up the road towards me comes one of these - black/white rally livery, rather than yellow - sounding 'FullOn'!

 

 

Of course I recognised it straight away... being a Proton twonk :-P

Driver was Dutch. I know this as he knocked on a door only for his friend to answer and say "where's the car? You've got what?"

This is what happens when you ask my daughter to take a picture of a car. She should do photographs for eBay .

MR2 boy is probably telling all his mates what a babe magnet his car is , "Some 19 year old bird was taking pictures of it and everything"
