Took a trip down to Hampshire for the weekend and covered an unadvisable distance on the bike. Plenty to spot.

Well used 100NX

The TR6 was lovely.

Would probably start and drive out. Tracks might need attention!

There's a story here. Yo.

Made a wrong turn and found this resting -would drive it as it is. Taxed but doesn't look like it's moved for a while.

The GTV has been for sale since at least Christmas & gets more sad looking every time I see it. It was £4500ish and needs quite a bit of work.

Did you clock if the DS was RHD or LHD?

Ah - but French. This is my RHD DS.51122A82-5A7C-46F7-84EA-1827A192F0EC.jpeg.4994f684d5601ca481ddb9e835c2ba15.jpeg

Then, probably LHD. Think I can just make out part of the wheel in that pic.

Just dropped off the Nissan for paint. 

Spotted these in the yard nearby. 

Apologies for the crap photo here:

Mrs N sent this from North Wales, although she spoiled it a bit by calling it a Viva. I’ve not corrected her, which is obviously difficult for me, but figure it would discourage her from taking others.

I went to Wales and saw this on the way home

I think I saw the red one in Ludlow on Saturday.

Thought I was seeing things in Lincoln on Saturday night when I saw the back of this when out on the piss. Thankfully it turned up at Cadwell on Monday and my sanity was restored. Would love to know how you cram a GM V6 into a Matiz.

Nice pair of Volvos.

The first one is in a student area of Southampton. The second one I snapped while walking the dog. It's in Chilworth where all the houses are well over a million. They were pausing whilst their electric gates opened. You can see the rust above the number plate. This is proper old money. These cars are truly classless aren't they?

The above Volvo went in here.

There are bigger more sprawling places in Chilworth but it still looks like a nice pad.
