This is the last lot I think.

 

This was on the Leeds ring road. Looked like a daily driver too.

Was at Tesco getting my lunch and took a different route back and bumped into my old Shaguar. I knew Volksy had moved back up to Leeds but didn't know where so it was a cool surprise.

Please excuse my wonky number plate.

 

I will get a proper soot of this Subaru soon. I see it in motion all the time. I actually saw it parked up the other week but was so hungover I couldn't bear stopping to take photos which I am kicking myself for.

These have got to be getting rarer now.

Was driving the Rover through Kirkstall and was surprised to see an even shitter car ahead.

When I uploaded thus on the Autoshite facebook oage a lad said it used to belong to him but i am not sure who he is on here (if he even comes on here).

It goes by the name of 'Eugenie', nice fella well-known in 'Crab circles.  He's had it a good few years and also restored a Morris 1800 recently

 

Amongst others, you can see it annually at Tatton

UMM! The owner used to have a LR forward control, but that must have been too reliable.

And this, just now in B and Q Chez Vegas. I've seen it before, it looks really clean, original looking interior etc.

Im watching the remake of Battlestar Galactica on the internets and spotted this.

 

Is pretty common to see a DS in scifi stuff being passed off as mega futuristic.

I also done saw a Lada Niva and a Lincoln Town Car but it seems that they're gone before I can even get my camera switched on! Oh well, here you go!

This just pulled up outside my folks house when I was fitting wiper blades to my dad's car. Citroen CX and its a late one! 284,000 miles with an MOT hostory that will no doubt be familiar to other old xitroen owners!

Some shite spotted whilst out yesterday:

 

Is it because I'm now a Kia owner but these are suddenly starting to really appeal to me. Especially as I've heard the V6 engines sound pretty good:

A rather nice Mini at Sainsbury's. Window sticker read 'BMW Mini my arse!':

These must be heading into pure shite territory fast. Scary to think these could have been badged as a Rover:

This Metro GTi is near Rochester and had a bit of paper on the window saying ''not for sale'' (grumpy fuckers).

A few recent spots to share.

The owner of this bought it years about for £150 and been running it into the ground since.

And the main reason for this post is this excellent 1985 council estate spec Allegro seen at Tesco today.

That makes up for missing a J-reg Proton on exactly the same bit of road an hour earlier. I thought I'd got it, just looked at the photo and I've got a really crisp picture of a 63-plate Focus that pulled into the lane behind it. Anyway. That Sierra is PERFECT, and straight out of the brochures in the era that I was pestering dealers for them.

Also, this was beautiful to behold but again my camera proved it's worth(lessness). It had a side exit exhaust and took off with a modicum of speed and a LOT of noise from the lights.

 

 

Other stuff I've seen recently

This was in barefoot's neck of the woods when we went for a bit of a Munzee walk last weekend. I sadly missed the Porsche 928 in full Gulf colours that passed me though.

This had some sticker that seemed to suggest there's an R8-only specialist somewhere near here. That's a specialist specialist.

Given the choice of spending March 14th with my wife on her knees... Or looking at this...

 

...I'd soon be starting up a profile on Plenty of Fish.

I imagine I'd be fighting them off with a shitty stick.
