This land yacht berthed in Morrisons car park today.

Ironic, given that American investors have made a takeover bid for Morrisons.

Morgan new pickup/van.... not looking great.

There can't be many Marea saloons and a 115 ELX at that and I found one today.

No, the private equity fellas

They're all after the cash reserves and freehold portfolio which Morrisons has.

Toyota Will. Inspired by a child's drawing of a car, and built on a Yaris floorpan. 

The epitome* of car design*

Okay, it's not exactly an AS car, but this was unique enough to be worth a share I thought.

I've seen this about several times but today I had a passenger I could badger into snapping a couple of photos on the way past.

Yes, that is a violently holographic Tesla Model X.

I wonder if it was wrapped following an accident as the shut lines on the driver's side are quite noticeably off.

Either way I think it's fantastic.  I have quite a hankering for a Tesla anyway, but making it holographic is a sure way to draw me in even more.

I suspect the Bride will be the biggest financial liability!

Why not experiment first, by wrapping an Invacar?

I'd never really thought about a wrap for TPA simply because you need a reasonably flat, sound surface under it.  That's nothing close to what we've got going on at the moment.

I did look into wraps while I had the Activa though as a possible solution to the rampant clearcoat peel.  However quickly discovered to have it done properly isn't even vaguely cheap.  With the prep work needed I would have been a fairly decent chunk of the way to a respray so just didn't stack up.

I think turning up to any event where there's a contingent of car enthusiasts she's likely to draw attention though even in scruffy blue...wacky paint just isn't needed!

Not likely to be an issue on that run (if we ever get back to it anyway) anyhow as I'm usually designated pack mule so will likely be in the van!

Apparently this is. Toyota Hilux.

I think this deserves of some kind of award.

As much I like Shadows, if I needed a wedding car I'd go for the C6 every time. But is that just the Autoshite state of mind?

That could very well be factory.

Tesla shut lines make a Range Rover Classic look like an S-Class.

You may ask  why a Audi Q7, the badge on the boot says V12.
