Forgot about this spot from Bicester on Friday.

Absolutely mint, clearly a cherished car.

Impressive amount of solar wattage on the roof of one of the campers. Not much room for anything that would need it in the other one.

NACA duct on the Scimitar.

@Tadhg Tiogar - I found it again! It was. D reg TRS so I’m guessing it’s the same one.

That's the fella. Since he got the bits from me, he's managed to refit the window trim strips. Definitely hasn't got around to fitting the standard alloys.

Think he also said something about getting the seats recovered....

Went to the posher side of town last week, saw this - witness mark under the rear bumper says it's been sitting for a while - what is it with the body kit?  Never seen one like this before.

And something a bit more... 70's

Found a barried Escort van and a later Robin further up the estate the other day.  I will make some time and get photos

Found a lovely pair of Peugeot 505s outside a house whilst exploring the back streets in town. Both saloons, one silver and one black, both clearly well looked after.

Sandglow Morris Marina estate, registration NPL 700L, on the back of a beavertail on the southbound M40 near Warwick yesterday lunchtime - no pics as I was driving.

Daily driven (seemingly still family-used) Espace 2.0 looking fairly tidy despite its years, and a not-too-shabby Golf with delicious wheelz  which sports not one, not two, but FOUR dehumidifying pouches on the dashboard! I have one of the same product and find it perfectly adequate in my leaky AX, so they must have some serious damp ingress problems! Old Cabriolets that live under trees I guess…

Only two offerings from Carmarthenshite this week, sorry. But both goatworthy.

I don't even know what this is apart from the big Mercedes badge on the front. LHD but British plates and has Alicante on the doors so perhaps originated there.

The back doors appear to use the same pressing for both sides, note the recess for the handle on the left door.

And they are completely rectangular so can be used either side, just drill the holes for the hinges as required. Seems more IKEA than Mercedes.

2nd generation Mercedes MB100. 

Spanish-made, I believe.

Having a front over hang bigger than the rear over hang is a complete and utter mind f**k to me……..

Spotted this Talbot Solara(?) on the A1 in Yorkshire earlier. Anyone here responsible?

This was parked up in Walmart. 

I'm not convinced by the patina*.
