This is cheating a bit as the BBC were filming outside, but:

There was more good stuff further up the road (you can just see the back of a Commer behind the Magnette) but they started shooting the next scene and we got ushered back into the pub...

I am on a short break in France with Mrs H. She had been actively pointing out shite and encouraging me to photograph it, including many early Twingos.

 

Not a clue what this is.

Lacquer peel!

Wonderfully neglected W123.

No idea what these are either.

Poorly painted Deuche in Deauville with bonus tiny Fiat estate.

AX that's had someone sit on the bonnet in Honfleur.

There are Xantias everywhere and the odd 205 but I haven't managed to capture one yet.

Thanks, I know nothing about American cars but I love seeing them around.

 

Pleasing juxtaposition of French cheese and Greek kebab. Old cars tend to get quite battered, but this one looked clean and well looked after.

Sorry for the shit photo, it is absolutely pissing down and i wanted to get my phone out and away as fast as possible.

Just got a little over excited at the sight of this outside a serial mini apologists house.

Still not excited enough to get out of the car and get a proper photo mind you.

 

Am pretty sure I've never seen one in the wild.

It's a Hustler 6 and is the very one that was near TWC at FOTU. Based on a Mini and designed by William Towns of Lagonda fame. They'd even sell you the plans to build one out of wood if you wanted to!

I've seen a few proper Pandas but didn't get the chance to snap any until this one, which could double in the mismatched panel thread.

2 in as many days! I don’t remember I saw a Mark 1 Laguna, let alone 2.

These 2 have amazing air suspension sag. The X5 hasn’t moved in a few weeks. I couldn’t show off the angle that well because I wanted to squeeze in the Micra too.

And one for RobT. We're heading back tonight so I suspect this will be the last one, unless we get lucky on the ferry.

Spotted these two near Godalming. Didn’t look like they’ve moved for a while.

Not lazy spotting per se, but seeing as this was parked 10 metres away for about 3 days, I guess it counts.

An Astra Merit still earning it's keep.  Sure they were swapping tales of clearcoat peel while I was in the shops...
