Nice to see this when out walking the dog this morning, looks classy in a great colour and with a proper private plate.

Odd dent on the o/s/f wing.

Is that a dent, or just a reflection?

I'm not really sure now, looking on PC rather than phone. I think a building is being reflected, but can't quite make out enough detail to be 100%.

There was a staff member at Fife College in the late 90s used to tool around in a Carmichael 6x6 Rangey. What piqued my interest was that it looked a lot less fire engine (like every other one I've seen) and much more limo. Turned out it had been built for some sultan in the Middle East as a high end 'pool car' for senior staff. (I want to say Sultan of Brunei but I can't be sure, Oman is in mind too...)

Saw a delicious Volvo 544(according to the plate, don't know the actual model)

1964, and in NL since 1995IMG_20211122_141810.thumb.jpg.027c4d34917c64b67a7194977c58f7cb.jpg

Sadly no photos as I was driving (really need to get a goddamned dashcam already!) but the spot of the year for me today was a Tatra T-613 on what I am pretty sure was a D plate heading towards Olney from MK this afternoon.  Overtook me on the way up the hill and sounded (as you would expect) absolutely gorgeous.  Dark metallic green colour and absolutely wasn't hanging around...went past me on the dual carriageway as though I was standing still and I wasn't dawdling!

First time I think I've ever seen one in the wild.

Suburban? I've seen smaller villages! Etc...

Round here, I absolutely would, providing it was an oil burner.

Grand Marquis and Crown Vic right behind each other, something you won't see happen very often in the UK.

That's just Gramps being followed by an unmarked cop car. Way common here!

Plenty of '98+ grand Marquis still around although pretty trashed most of the time unfortunately.

Yes very true. 

 

this one was spotted at my mates garage having some work done. It was very tidy, and all original straight from the USofA. I had a massive hard on stood next to this, despite a Noble m400 sitting the other side of the workshop. Same guy owns a “fall guy” pick up truck which is currently on ebay

Dunno if I'd do a full-on panda Crown Vic, but the stealth hot rod one that Power Nation put the full build video on YT for recently, I definitely would. A black ops/CIA tribute tyre destroyer? Yes please.
