Went past again myself last night, and there was a large van parked in front of it in the driveway - pretty much obscures the Sierra altogether!

I think the van's usually always parked there, so it's been blocking the view of the camper for who-knows-how-long!

That'll be 320Touring of this parish. There's an extensive tale of woe thread about this car somewhere here.

Smiley Transit with headlamp washers! Well, one washer and a hole where the other one used to be.

Saw this when out for a bike ride recently.

And then ImpJr spotted this whilst we were on our way to go outdoors.

This was in Ilkley. Is it a special based on an MGA or something?

It's an NG TC kit car. Based on MGB I think

The DVLA website suggests its a 1958 car, so I think its something earlier than a B, unless my maths is out a bit? 

However, looking online they do seem to be b based, maybe its the dooovla records that are wrong. It wasn't registered till 1983 so may be a bit iffy.

Funny you should say that. This car was for sale at a West Sussex dealer a couple of years ago and they made a thing in their ad about 284 mph being the speed the Koenigsegg Agera RS topped out at when making its record breaking bid for being the world's fastest production car (277.9 mph average of two runs). Quite how this was relevant to a lowly Mazda I've no idea. I did actually um and err about buying this Mazda as I thought an MX3 would make an interesting contrast to my MX5's. It's 1.6 auto rather than the full fat V6 though. I later saw it at a car show and chatted to the new owner who seemed very happy with it.
