Jim Bergerac Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Come a nuclear holocaust all that will be left will be cockroaches. And, by how they have survived so long in such high numbers already, doubtlessly a few of these.

Mr Livered Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 But then I thought, as its a Princess..... Ooo Mr Imp you are a card... I like that. Very Monty Python. HillmanImp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanImp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Does anyone remember the E.T. Cruiser from Used Car Roadshow? I have mentioned before that a lass from work is going out with the son of the headcase who owns this monstrosity. She got picked up from work in it the other day. Some of the graphics seem to have gone from it. It seemed to have a planet and pics of scyscrapers on the back of it though but i was too far away. Apparently the inside is HIDEOUS. Not seen this move for a LONG time unless they keep parking it the same. Might stop and have a look. Guiseley shopping centre 190. 'Tastefully' modded MG Tidy 5 series This car was a bit of a joke.... Morrisons Austin Cambridge HMC and michael t 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mainwaring Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 The Audi's near Eldwick, isn't it? I drive past it pretty regularly, it does seem to move occasionally. T'was parked facing the other way last month or so at any rate... HillmanImp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanImp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Yeah, its the same one. It must move then. Might give them a knock if they ever fancy getting shot of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wackywacerwill Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 We went out on a local family countryside walk yesterday morning and I remembered this high class spot which I thought fitted into Mr. Imps thread quite nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rml2345 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I'd love to know how they get the roof box off that LT! At least it's not going to make the aerodynamics any worse. saucedoctor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HillmanImp Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 We went out on a local family countryside walk yesterday morning and I remembered this high class spot which I thought fitted into Mr. Imps thread quite nicely. Good spot that? Where was it? I have driven past this a few times recently. I thought it was the same one that lives on a drive on one of the houses opposite but that one is still there. It looks like this one came up from Milton Keynes recently judging by the parking permit in the window. Look at these seats: Sweet as.

HillmanImp Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Was also parked behind this at the petrol station. Pretty used and abused. Had plenty of time to take the photo as some fat bint in an Astra G with 'lexus' rear lights was trying to pay for her petrol with vouchers but the counter would not take them and made her pay with cash but she stood there arguing for long enough. michael t 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volksy Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Here's a few from the last few months. OMGStanza was in Whitby was over visiting some friends and always park next to this.

It looks like this one came up from Milton Keynes recently judging by the parking permit in the window. I had a back box that stuck out that far on a A reg Metro. One day whilst gashing my shin on it's slash cut end for the umpteenth time it fell off and was launched across the road with great glee. Imp was on the marsh at Erith on the Darent Industrial estate (QE bridge in the background). That yard on the end used to be Trents though is now Pickapart and charges a quid to enter and for that reason I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seacow Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 A chap i know owns a garage around the corner and has started to get into selling classic cars so I popped by this afternoon to have a nosey whilst passing. 20131019_142108.jpg 20131019_142129.jpg 20131019_142157.jpg but this Montego on the other hand does seem to be worth the money, it's mint again and only has 51000 miles on the clock, I have spoke to him about taking a photo of this and mine together which he's happy with but he wasn't in today.. 20131019_142240.jpg 20131019_142305.jpg .I have Montego envy!

beko1987 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Spotted this on the way back to mums. Had to hide a trouser snake afterwards... Never really looked at these before, apart from Tracy's one in the early birds of a feathers. In the flesh I really liked it! Shame I'm 6ft2, and half as fat again...

I had seen this when I was on my phone last night and had just come on to ask that very question. It did look like it could be a Kia but I don't recall ever seeing one before. Who bought that new?
