It's just gone through an MOT and everything. Although I think it still has the cock and balls drawn in the dirt on the bonnet from when you were here a year ago...

It's almost as if the old thing  is taunting people with the off-centre light.

You don't see many Scamps. IIRC there was a member of XJ40.com years back who was related to someone who did something with them originally. True story.

A couple of sad sights at the scrappy yesterday. That wee Escort should have been in Autoshite hands for sure...

Dropped the boy off to go canoeing and spotted a 40s event at the SVR so snuck in for a look. The cars were nice enough but this was ace.

Built specifically for forestry according to the board.

 

I picked him up from Bewdley so was expecting to see an 800 moldering away in the carpark but only found this.

Headed back to Ludlow afterwards and sat in the car while kids went into a shop. The owner of this waved.

This Rover lives around the corner from me. I see this everyday as I am coming home from work, he is always heading towards Stourport at about 5pm. This car used to live in a carpark for one of the flats by the river but I think the owner now lives in the flats by where this car is parked as it's always in the same space.

 

My moldering 800 has been moved to Kidderminster for a bit. Once monies starts flowing a bit better, it may see the road again.

I once followed a DB5 through Little Tel Aviv, and it only later dawned on me that the owner was taking a bit of risk with half-a-million-quid's worth of car in a district not known for careful driving....

So the picture of the Metro two posts above? That's where we always dump our car when we go into London for a couple of days. Came back today and the Metro's still there but between it and my Felicia someone's dumped this manky looking Merc.

The Merc might be worth more but I bet the Felly outlives it.

 

And just round the corner.

Nice to see a proper VW not messed about with.

 

And the view from Peckham Rye station.

One for the early Mondeo lickers. K546 HAR, registered 15 June 1993. Essex reg and top spec so I'd like to imagine this was some Ford exec's pride and joy back in 1993. Sadly now on SORN with no MOT since 2013, it lives round the corner from me but not somewhere I ever usually go so I'd never seen it before.
