Ooh, the Trident Way footbridge on Manchester road...

I haven't seen a Mk1 Fester in forever, I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for it

It turned off to the right not far from there, so probably local.

Wow, a Sintra!  It was indeed pretty rare when new, must be almost unique now.

From what I remember a poor NCAP score damaged sales of these, which wasn't impressive before then.

When we were out getting the test tyre for the Nissan just now, we wandered round the industrial estate as the place I was planning on going to was closed.

OMG, late registration madness.... or not:

Has year of manufacture as 2003 which matches the age related plate, so if thats right it must be one of the last ones off the production line. We last got them in 1995 according to Wikipedia. 

Imp Jr thought this was the absolute bollocks, I have to say I agree with him:

He was quite excited about this too and made me take a photo. Think he thought it was a lot older than it actually was.

Is that picture a few months old or has the owner removed the wrap?  Either way I suspect you're not very far from me. This was it about November or so last year.

Yes it was taken about a  year ago.  I'm near  Dumfries.  Can't decide if I prefer the brown or the Starsky look 🤔

Probably in bad taste but a nice audi coupe gt there.

Can't remember the last time I saw one of these that wasn't horrendously rusty - this was only a bit rusty.

A distant Volvo.

Bit of cheating but spotted at the NEC resto show yesterday. Unless I misread the Odo that Volvo had less than 30k miles. And so did this mint Granada, is was perfect!

There was a V6 Probe on the same road the other day, I didn't have time to grab any more snaps. Sad looking white E34 round the corner too.

Yes I posted the Probe on here a week or so ago, didn't know about the E34 though. 👍

[Amishtat]

Neither did I until Friday, or the Nova. Damn, now I've got to go and get a picture..

Dog kennel hill area of Dulwich today.

Sorry no photos as I was driving , but spotted a Model T  near the M6 at Tebay yesterday. I assume it didn’t go into the motorway.
