Joey spud Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 This handsome A40 was getting loads of attention at Sunday's Wrotham steam fair. In my opinion it was perfect and would be exactly how i would want my 60's car to look and big respect to its owner for keeping it original. worldofceri, Skizzer, danthecapriman and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Jimmy Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Since the rolling 40 year tax exemption has returned I've noticed more late 70s cars both at shows and on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loserone Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 22 hours ago, sutty2006 said: Found a BX diesel in the garage next to the body shop the carlton is in. It’s force hail at 750. Says it starts and drives fairly well, but does need a few fettling jobs doing. Had a quick scan, leccy windows and about 107k. Then I left before I did something I’d regret. If anyone’s interested I can pass details on. That looks very nice. Does that price include a test? mitsisigma01 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the very first Mitsubishi imported to the UK and is part of Mitsubishi UK's heritage fleet. It appeared at FOTU last year so I guess it's being prepared for another appearance there.

Zelandeth Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I know (or at least think I do!) most of the Xantias around here...so was quite surprised to wind up parked almost next to this S2 HDi today in Wolverton. I'm slightly envious of their lack of laquer peel... worldofceri, LightBulbFun, Yoss and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoss Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Slightly dirty Felicia but it has good rear arches and lack of laquer peel - the two main things I look for in a Felly. And this looked super clean from here. LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd misread the web address as 'Ztombol', rather than Zlombol (pics were taken from the other side of the road, then cropped), which was why I didn't get a result... duh, on my part. https://zlombol.pl/english-menu/zlombol-2019 Looks like the rally just finished yesterday in Dublin - so presumably this wagon's crew felt confident enough to hare up the road for another 100 miles. Fair play to them! I'll keep my eyes peeled for further delights, just in case there's a Barkas or two knocking around... or indeed one of these: Yoss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my colleagues, who is Polish, helpfully explains that the slashed "L" character sounds like "uwe"/"oower", so this example would be pronounced "Zoowombol" Datsuncog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
