Quintus Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Spotted these two in Devon (Postbridge to be precise). I Googled how to decipher German numberplates and wonder if they might be examples of German vanity plates, which are apparently available for a small fee. Seems a coincidence that the 350SL has the same number on the plate and the silver one has 560. However, if the silver car is a 560SL then it's an import as the 560 was apparently only sold in the USA, Canada, Japan and Australia. mitsisigma01, CreepingJesus, SteersWithThrottle and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back_For_More Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The 1st 2 letters are the regional definition - so Wu iirc is Wurzburg....... NF is North Friesland....... More craptatic from Addington area..... Brick Handbrake a favourite around here - Passat sat for a long time and the van owner has a LWB version - perhaps keeping this for spares? and the VW recently ended up in the air with the Shogun on the drive blocked in by it - I left a note on the Pajero/Shogun - see if they bite The tarp'd thing I thought was a Merc has RR as in Royce - hubcaps - but photo messed up - will pap later - although mostly tarp so not much to see. T4 not come out too - both yesterday afternoon - so it was me I suppose. More later....... Dyslexic Viking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Jetter Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Think this will be my spot of the month: Not often you see one in the wild - and it sounded very poorly when pulling up (illegally, as that's a MoD place) and departing.

Shite Ron Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 There was a classic car show in the Town on Saturday, it was great to see proper cars parked in the streets. With the very hot weather it reminded me of when I was a child. Some very nice Fords The farmers parked opposite Weatherspoons to enjoy a few Ciders.

Zelandeth Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Got a film back from a MK Classic Car Club meet back on May 6th. Irked I didn't drop myself down a bit lower to hide the car in the background for this one. Likewise...fouled up the focus on this one. Got pretty much exactly the same shot on my phone - this was done using an actual wide aperture! danthecapriman, CreepingJesus, Dyslexic Viking and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And mullered flatbed transit I couldn't get closer to due to the piles of crap. Pretty sure that's an A series, going by the wide black grille. Profiles were the same, but the Transit's big brother was a broad lad. Didn't hang around all that long, so it's somewhat rarer.

Schaefft Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Šibenik turned out to be a bit of a gold mine for obscure econo boxes of the past. First of all, a freaking 1981 Chevy Chevette in remarkable condition. Immediately spotted from the other side of the marina.
