High Jetter Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I've always thought 'Talbot Express' to be an oxymoron. How fast is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMort Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Time for some more spots from the Lake District: Starting with a Morris Minor 1000. Look how tiny it is compared to the C1! A Jaaaaaaag in a Rover 100 colour A pretty late MG ZR A buggered bug. I love how the rear wings are inside the car. Nice touch A Type 2 without headlamps. Digging the 70s alloys tho A Figaro in typically Figaro green A pretty late MG Midget. I believe all of the last run was in this black. An XR2 thats so famous it has its own Facebook page. Actually got to briefly speak to the proud owner too! And finally, some proper shite. A 1986 Toyota Corolla Executive - one of TWO still on the road! motorpunk, danthecapriman, HillmanImp and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoss Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Went out for a drive yesterday and stopped at this pub in the Forest. There was a wedding going on. How's this for a wedding car? Beats a white Rolls Royce hands down. I give it six months. MiniMort, Tadhg Tiogar, adw1977 and 3 others 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMort Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Scrapyard spotting time - hoorah! This all comes from a place near Millom which is near Barrow-In-Furness. See? I can do tourism! Might as well start with a pre-facelift Corsa B GLS without wheels. ...Then moving on to an old-ass Land Rover which by law every scrappy needs. Or if you want a little more class with your rusting pile of shite, how about an original Range Rover? Executive Shite can be had with this 1993 Rover 820 Or a 1995 Ford Maverick A pair of F reg Escrots were also in there. Shame as the estate in particular looks pretty solid Almost arrived at peak shite with this photo. A 1995 205 Inca D, a Rover 2200SC and a hiding Renner 19. Also... TWO ROTTING CORPSES OF MK2 ESCORTS!!! And we finish off with an Anglia in a similar condition. What. A. Place.

Soundwave Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I think "painted" is probably too strong a word. Some colour has been placed in rough proximity to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datsuncog Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Just the ticket for loading up on flatpack, at everyone's favourite Swedish baffling retail ordeal... facelifted Citroen XM VSX estate. What a beauty. Ten years ago to the day, I was rocking one of these myself... Bought expressly for a house move, it was no stranger to this very same car park, loading up with wardrobes on the roof rails and a fridge freezer in the back... This one's much less scabby than mine, mind. Gotta be someone on here, surely? adw1977, Shite Ron, Quintus and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it is a left hooker. I thought something looked odd, but couldn’t put my finger on it. I sort of assumed it was a US marker light, but then it would be rectangular and have one at the back. I never knew Italian market cars had to have repeaters that early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never knew Italian market cars had to have repeaters that early. The Italians had indicator repeaters on front wings decades before it became a mandatory requirement across Europe round about 1985. The Italians were actually quite logical in having the repeater lights placed as far forward as possible, whereas the Euro regs put it near the front doors.
