In Kilchoan, Ardnamurchan. Looked like it was being used as a camper. I'd love one like this.

Sounded very loud but driven by a very nice woman in her 40's

This was really tidy, and a rare survivor from the first year of uk sales......

Lovely RS2000 at Larne MoT Centre this evening. I got talking to the owner while we were waiting for our paperwork : 2.1 on a 205 block, some mad cylinder head and 40's. Sounded well fruity (the car, not the owner). Sounded like a straight cut 'box as he drove off, too.

I know it's wrong to use a camera etc when driving, but for the good of Autoshite, and this thread. I had to BREAK THA RULEZ...

 

This followed me through Scunthorpe this morning. Luckily it parked up when I did , so I got a stationery shot...

 

It's a 78 (on an S) Toyota Hiace 'Rio' camper van and it was mint...It was an FW reg identifier so it was local too 8) 8)

Really?  There's a red G-reg one I've seen around here several times, faded to pink but otherwise very clean and tidy.  Must be a personal plate I guess but it's definitely a very early model.

I'm not sure it was always yellow though.

Nissan Cabstar.* I've not seen one of these in the wild before, just on eBay. I can't remember what it's called, probably the CACK 8008135 1.5 or something.

Spotted this trio of old crocks gently festering at the bottom of Sainsbury's car park in Ashbourne recently. I think the nearby flats must have some arrangement to use the bit at the bottom of the car park area.

The Passat was a GL5 - Noice. Was just startting to get nicely crispy round the edges.

Slightly tired Ovlov 740 turbo dizzler auto. Gained a nasty dent on the rear pillar, crysty door and bonus gaffer taped wing mirror. Papped whilst out walking the dogpost-19547-0-75271200-1433336883_thumb.jpg

These two were sat outside the scrap merchants. Don't think they're going inside as everything is crushed nearly straight away

In the town centre car park today and looked nicely original. Ironically I was watching the FTLOC episode about Swedish cars just last night.

The military vehicle man has been shopping again. This is apparently the only Morris CDFW of this type in the world.

What is it?

Perhaps Randall's copped it as well.

 

Edited to add,oops! The guy that played Randall has been dead for nigh on 40 years, Hopkirk is ironically, still alive.

No wonder the FD looks a bit neglected.

Been a bit slack on updating this. May or may not have updated with some of these before.

I saw this walking to Tesco a few weeks ago for the first time. Since then I must have seen it three times a day, every day. They chap who owns it must just drive around in it non stop. Its a white guy, maybe 50-60yrs old which surprised me as living in Bratfurt innit, I automatically assumed it would be an indian or Pakistani gentleman driving it but it just goes to show that not all stereotypes are true and I am a massive racialist for thinking it.

Was behind this going to Keghley the other week. Was an Alvis I think from memory. The driver seemed to forget it had indicators. Saw them work once in about 15 miles.

Think this was a Corsa saloon.

Yes that's a Mk1 Cavalier Centaur, I purposely took a shit picture in homage to the Cavcraft photography school.

I think it's local ,but didn't have time to follow it. Rest assured I will hunt it down and get better pics.post-17414-0-63339200-1433450541_thumb.jpg

 

This 73 Eldorado was cruising through Islington last night and every fucker was stopping and staring.

I can't have been the only one disgusted by the hideous paint and stupid 20" wheels.

It's a late Trabant with a Polo engine. Cracking spot!
