I think there's been a couple of 'Cat piss tarp challenge' threads over the years. 

I've snuck a look under a couple I've been unsure of but would be fully prepared to get a gobby mouthful off the owner if I was caught.

 

Thanks, I never knew that. Doesn't seem a very busy thread though does it? I'll bear it mind next time I see something.

In the same place I have been papping other old Citroens is this french plater...

Remember* in the news section I said I knew of the location of an electric Fluence? No I did not - I seem to know the location of the only dizzle Fluence in the country according to HML. Brought over in 2014 (2010 car).

Oh and here is a Morris Minor being daily driven by a country lady of a certain age who I normally see walking her dogs...like it's about 1985.

Wonder if that's the same Dacia I saw in MK a couple of years ago.  Caused me a significant double take as I had absolutely no idea what it was at the time.  For a car of that sort of age that was a significant surprise for me.

There aren't that many Dacia-Ren 12s around here. Having said that, there is some mad fella out there who has a small fleet of them and, at one point, was using them as semi-abandoned advertising boards for a Romanian satellite telly service. There was one such parked in a layby on the A406 outside Brent Cross for months before it was finally removed.

Impiaaaaaaan!

There was the usual Giffer On Board, so I didn't take any closer pics.

It's maybe not that old, but I think we can all agree it's still 24 carat gold shite all the same.

The more I look at it, the more I think it resembles a Mk1 Laguna described down the phone to the design team at Proton.

Saw this earlier.

and my mate sent me this today. I went down to see if it was still there but it had moved.

There was a few fresh drips of oil on the floor though...

Seems to have taken the place of the scruffiest K plate Transporter in the known universe.

Shame as it was a five pot and I loved hearing it woofle off down the road.

This big beautiful Citroen appeared near my Dundee flat. I coveted it very much.

An L-series R3 from Arbroath harbour still on daily duties taken a couple of months ago.

Also an older K-series R3 with minimal rust that occasionally shows up in the same place as the Citroën.

And a brand new but insta shite DFSK (Dongfeng Sokong) in Perth station. Not sure how, as they were supposed to have pulled out of the UK market yet again in 2018.

I saw an L reg black Alfa Romeo 33 going into a car park today, had a walk around but couldn't find where it went, although come across a Corolla, K10 Micra and my 309 friend again from the other day, love the look of that shabby thing.

Prowling around this morning on my “I’m going to go mad” quarantine walk and spotted three lush spots

A pretty late Camry (small or far away?), sadly only a 2.4 not a full fat V6

OLLI - plenty patina here

Spotted this lovely Polo Dune in a great colour, sadly without MOT since November. The very early RAV4 behind was in rude health.
