I'm away on holiday in Bourton-On-The-Water in Gloucestershire for a few days. Although a lovely place to relax, it does sometimes feel like I'm walking around on a set of "Midsomer Murders"! That said, Morris (or should that be Austin?) vans are dotted about; one beautifully preserved and one....not!

Believe it or not, the Vectra possibly looked worse from the front.  I suspect the owner was not in Holland & Barrett

1950 Ford Prefect, apparently. Home-brewed conversion I'm assuming? Looks like the registration has been pulled since though.

There were lots of these about after WW2, as they could be registered commercial to avoid Purchase Tax.

I remember the sketch where Dame Edna said something like Look a half-timbered car, these moggie are just caring on  with that theme.

Couple of spots in Reading Waitrose, followed by a perfectly lovely Saab 900 Turbo at my dentist this morning.
