Tesco carpark, Copdock. Any ideas what the Colette SE had for your money?

This project (?) is parked a few houses down from my holiday house. Dunno what is, I'm rubbish at identifying American cars.

Looks like a cortina (to my untrained eye ). Did the yanks get em?

Been on holiday in Filey for the last week not seen much old stuff at all

 

Very nice looking 240 at flamborough head north landing

 

Just round the corner from it

 

This looked like it was used everyday in Scarborough

 

Then today spotted the Nova in Bridlington and bugger me what was reversing in front of it

 

And on the way home a booted Focus which definitely goes faster now

Spotted this little gem in Ellesmere Port today.

 

Everyone likes a mini!!

 

[Mr A Lawrence]

This in the car park of waterworld in burton just outside Ellesmere Port.

[Mr A Lawrence]

Those focus saloons always look like someone's ran up the arse of it.

4 door 127, never seen one in the UK (we're they even sold here?)

Citroen C-Elysee, again never seen one of these before, must be a PSA. Thing as there is a Peugeot 301 as well, same thing, never seen one of those before either....

Alfa 33 at Drogarati caves parked in the same spot as it was last year. Cleaner this year with no wasps nest in it, so someone cares for it. Radom Lancia in the background

Panda 2. There's loads of Pandas here in fact this image was taken from a Panda 3.

 

Verdict. Must try harder to snap a Panda 1.

Seen as I am going to Ireland tomorrow, I reckon I should post up all of my spots from around Suffolk so that next time I can do a special post full of Irish shite.

 

Anyway, to start with we have a pair Rover saloons, one of which I am sure will appeal to Vulgalour, and another for Lord Sterling.

 

 

And a Bluebird which has been parked in that space for years, but still hasn't moved or had the sign saying it is not for sale taken down.

 

 

Down the street this was parked. If only it hadn't been pineappled; I like small hatchback based saloons and I haven't seen a Vento for ages.

 

 

Bloody hell, these do look great. It just exudes class and elegance.

 

 

Also a Cavalier saloon, in decadent GLS flavour.

 

 

PAGING CAVCRAFT! Now that you have sold that rusty MG, what do you need to replace it?

 

Another one.

 

You can also have this too.

Gold. Daily use 120y estate. Been trying to pap this all week, and it was back this morning. I had a 120y as my first car so I have an affinity for these. I don't remember estates though....

It's a 1970 or '71 Ford Torino 2-door hardtop. Do not paint.

[Laseraligningfoofooflanges]

This rolled down my street earlier as i was faffing with the audi.

 

Never been spotting so i was unsure of the eticate involved, Just went up to the lad driving it knocked on his window and asked if i could take a pic of his car.. Told him about the forum etc. said he would probably like it

 

He's also got a mk3 escort cabby ive seen it about grimsby a bit.. its shabby and flat blue with a black gaffer taped roof.. Sound bloke asked him if he was worried about tea leaves driving an old ford he just said he had a sledgehammer in his bedroom :-D

Two more Swansea spots,very clean 240 in Mumbles,and a late S1 800 fastback in Morriston.

[Braddon81]

Spotted in Sarn Bridgend tonight. 1986 desperately wants it's Vw Fastback back!

[worldofceri]

Wow.  Mega-rare non-pineapple edition.  I like those.

[Joey spud]

At a garage in Sevenoaks two brit convertables one 1275cc the other 5000cc.

 

Same garage has this scruffy but tax / tested Ren 19 GTS.

 

Can't recall if this was a MG or a AH either way the original raised digit number plate oozed style (garage in Otford).

[panhard65]

Went to a couple of cars shows over the last couple of weeks nowt to exciting, but the Paramount was a new one on me.

Nice MG

I have seen this one on a spotting thread on here somewhere when it was with a previous owner

I remember this Jensen from back when I had mine. It is fitted with a BMW 520 engine and gearbox.

The wheels just look so shit on this

Finally the Paramount I have forgotten what the sign said about it but made in the UK and very rare

 

 

[Mr A Lawrence]

That black yank tank looks like one of those snoop dog bouncy gangbangers cars.

As a rule of thumb, MG Midgets of this period had chrome side strips, Sprites didnae....  

[mercrocker]

Just tipped Mrs Rocker's phone out (digitally speaking) and came across a couple of interesting pics amongst the grand-kids and gardenias....  

 

Here is a line up of miserable camping options at a recent rock and roll weekend - we inhabit the T25 and Portaloo.... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a recent all-dayer, nice to see a Holden in use over here, EK model I think....

Tidy 1987 Bx Rd spotted in Llanelli today.

[jamespatrickbart]

 

Astral werks. Full of shite special!

 

Interestingly, driving away from the tip!

Always after a bit of rain down in the deepest bowls of the Gower Peninsula it's always nice to see a late Citroën Xm bursting in to bloom!
