On closer inspection it looks like a heavy duty chain probably going to a ground anchor, unfortunate that you have to do that nowadays😕

As I said, it is in Ashmore Park! 😂

Some more random stuff.

When I was 17 many of my contemporaries learned to drive in a K10 Micra but that was a long time ago so I didn't expect it to still be happening.

F192 GLG - 1989 Nissan Micra 1.0 GSX

Saw the gold 460 again yesterday, then a different 400-series Ovlov today

J882 PEL - 1991 Volvo 440 GLEi

Enormous Septic pickup on a Q-reg. 6.2 V8 petrol so I wonder how many gallons per mile it does.

Q579 BCY - Ford F-350 Super Duty

Not at all shite but this is just gorgeous and I'd happily cruise around in it like Roger Moore or George Lazenby

RCD 676G - 1968 Aston Martin DBS

There was a 9-5 on the drive to the left too.

Ever get the feeling the owner really really likes 9-5s?

He may not like 9-5s as those are 9000s😉!

Very scabby X2, plus seicento and Alhambra...

Gonna have to revisit to get snaps from Leicester - saw a brown, 2 door Nova saloon covered in lichen. And two weird Mitsubishi Evos in a very rough part of the city that look dumped. Sorry .. will get pics...

Nearly as old as me - doesn't seem to be carrying much dairy either, but looks in fab condition. (The float's in pretty good nick too!)

Yes, it seemed to be loaded with wood (it was going too fast for me to see properly). Perfect vehicle for a trip to B&Q.

(originally the cut off for white on black plates for private cars was the 1st of January 1973, but more recently the rules where amended that any vehicle over 40 years old can wear white on black plates as well)

I saw a '78 T2 with said plates just this morning and thought "R IT LEGALZ?" Every day is an education.

Yeah, also while im at it, white on black plates where legal for PSV vehicles up until Y prefix I think (not that I know of any that wore a set that late) but its why you see some Late suffix and early prefix London Transport buses on white on black plates

where funnily enough on those it does not actually look wrong, I guess A because im more use to it there, and B because they used proper number plates/actual white and black plates, and not modern tacky cheap pressed silver on white plates or what you have, that you see on a lot of cars these days like that allegro

I papped this sad trio on a small industrial park at the rear of Ebbsfleet (Northfleet) football ground.

Looks like the stretch limo game has taken a severe kicking during lockdown.

Also the mot history for the Chrysler is a bit grim as most years ball joint wear and brake efficiency is mentioned.

You would have thought if you were running a business carting young 'uns around the vehicles would be spot on or at least get them fixed before presenting them for a Mot.
