Poor old Picasso seems quite static now. Not moved for ages. Don’t even think it can now. Still full of crap. No parking tickets though.IMG_4860.jpeg.0a5e74f724a310f60f9f874592dbb471.jpeg

I wonder if this Corolla is the owner’s new means of transport. IMG_4885.jpeg.e76d74fa0578bc17e2d52b0668ac686d.jpeg

Does he buy and sell paving slabs?

I went to a small village in Yorkshire for some Landrover related repairs and stumbled across these motors. 
 

Turns out I wasn’t too far from Thornton le Dale but couldn’t be arsed to drive there after repairs were done. Seen it all on tV anyway

Took the Traveller for a spin yesterday, ended up behind this for a while

Haven't seen a Robin in a while, looked interesting with a wide front wheel!

Plus a Series Landy coming the other way shortly after

Sadly the day didn't end well, with some clutch issues...

These were taken last year, but there’s a street in Edinburgh that appears to have its fair share of tasty motors.

A few from CZ. I'll start with the Škodas first, get them out of the way.

This one's got headlamp washers. I'm sure they'll work fine here.IMG_20240116_085022.thumb.jpg.08d621bde80b97158889c3a7a5a355df.jpg

And this one's with a booted Clio.

Erm?

oh, ok. Also note the lighthouse in a very landlocked country. It seemed to be made of plastic and unlikely to survive even the smallest storm.

I always seem to find one of these when I come out this way, either Czech or Hungary and they are always this colour. I even found one on Google maps in Romania the same colour.

And saving the best for last, this is what I think the apocalypse will look like.

One which actually took me a fair bit of time to identify from a distance today while driving.  A white H plate Mitsubishi Colt.  Can't remember last time I saw one of that shape!

Not sure about the wheels, or the exhaust. Spotless though. D plate.

Spotted in Manchester. Not sure if it's a proper County.

Not much to add other than it was loud and smelly IMG_4102.thumb.jpeg.1a04d5764b6755c15272b3228844806e.jpegIMG_4101.thumb.jpeg.c3a607f86e0dbb05ed2077605109298e.jpeg

One for the 'still in service' thread but I daren't resurrect it! 

Spotted this Lite Ace in Manchester. Driven exuberantly (!) by an older bearded chap.

Presumably been brought down for mot. I can't remember the last time I saw one in the wild.

I'd have put it off until tomorrow when it stops raining.
