The used to be everywhere back in the day, I had a mate whose family was pretty well off and he had one of these while he was at uni, it was like he'd got a spaceship or something to me!

I could have sworn I've seen this particular car in some of the magazines.

Here it is in James Hunt's garden

Is that one of Nigel's 25s I wonder?

I did think that. It was definitely in his locale.

Glad to see it was true about the A35. Heard it mentioned many times but wondered if it was one of those urban myths. But no, there it is.

Blue Volvo 440 just drove up the street then out again a couple of minutes later.

Haven't seen one in several years.

This is the current view from by bedroom window.......our house backs onto the local fire station & this is their current extracation training chod (they recently had an early J plate mk3 Astra in as well but I didnt get a pic of that ? )

M678AVW was last MOT'd June 2017 at 59590 miles

Maybe once the fire brigade have cut the roof off that 800 they could it donate to it the one with the rotten roof that dollywobbler had until recently.

Phoar! I'd love this as a daily driver, it belongs to the guy we bought the tractor from, he dropped a couple of spare tyres off for us.

It’s not every day you stumble across the Belgian Borgward club on tour... but today was that day.

A couple of MrsDC's spots from the other week...

IMG-20190510-WA0012.jpg.61213e5071856813d61b3043719f13b1.jpg

A spectacularly patinated/fucked Sierra 2.3D (photographed at a distance). CDZ8773, complete with no back seats and black binbags over the front seats.

It was, er, ripe - I'm told. Owner came out as she was moving off, and it was a doddery oul fella who looked well into his eighties. Probably owned it from new.

 

Volvo 440 enjoying* its twilight years as a plasterer's work hack, from the looks of things.

Given the artistry employed on the rear arch, I don't think I'll be giving him a bell anytime soon.

Finally, a corker of a Mk1 Cavalier spotted by CogSr last week.

He got talking to the owner, as he tends to do.

The fella bought it second-hand in 1982, and still dailies it.

That might well be the reason for the binbags. The seats have been infested with bugs.....
