Fascinating shots of Gibraltar! Although Gib's British, I note they drive on the RIGHT (continental style) and that one's required to produce a passport when travelling there from the U.K. Contrast this with the Channel Islands, where one drives on the LEFT (British style) and does NOT need a passport to get there.   WEIRD! 

It’s to keep in continuity with Spain who drive on the right, to save confusion and people switching from left to right as many people drive in and out of Gibraltar to Spain and vice versa on a daily basis.   
 

Gibraltar is not part of Britain or the UK, but an overseas British territory, a fine line between the two.

The Jersey and Guernsey (and IOM) are Crown dependencies while Gib and the Falklands  ( and others) are British Overseas territories. Can’t see any difference other than the Crown dependencies are part of the British Isles. I’m sure there are other differences but I can’t find them.

Hidden Volvo, crouching Hyundai (of no interest).

Nissan Gloria JDM market. A very attractive looking saloon.

We've been away in Tenby, in west Wales for a week or so. Plenty of Autoshite, including this Rover, still in daily use.

I also spotted a PERFECT Ford Capri 280, looking only slightly better than the day it rolled off the production line, but I couldn't swing my 'phone round quickly enough to capture an image!

Camaro was obviously a V6.

Owner must be into their quirky JDM cars! I saw this Cefiro there a couple of months ago:

Yes, I first noticed this in May 2024. I walk past there when walking into the city centre or visiting Waterloo Park.

On a similar theme, lurking in the field of scrap behind my MOT place

Am in Italy. Mucho shite.

[beko1987]

I wasn't even alive to spot it but scrolled past this on fb, Aylesbury in 1980 (it's a fucking horrible twat of a road now)

But there's a Talbot 😂

[beko1987]

I can restore the balance as I nipped onto town before work and between me walking one way then back again this parked up!

Looked bloody clean, recent looking khumo's all round (the drivers side at least 🤷) ❤️

[Kingofdnb]

Now the suns out all the cars are coming out. 

A Talbot express.

 

And a 3 litre Sierra with only 21000 on clock.

[Aston Martin]

Apparently he's one of us. 🤷‍♂️

The owner is a regular at the Arminghall show/autojumble, and the ECJ meet in Ipswich. He also has a late '70s Skyline 240K.

I love Italian shite. White Fiat in 3rd pic looks like a 127 to me but said Fiat 900 on it. No more pics of it as some gobby fishwives we’re giving me the evils…

The Previous Cefiro shared many parts with Skylines, 300ZX and 200SX (etc) so they're really popular. This model is more like the QX (FWD v6)

Outside The Radnorshire Arms, Beguildy this evening. Lovely
