Lazy spotters thread

Some recent spots from the Swansea Neath and Llanelli area. The Viva has been in the same spot in the Centre of Neath for at least 25yrs! The Marina is a very early one with Rhd wipers! And digging some dirt in the Chryslers Avenger history reveals it appears to have been the Gls that Chrysler used in all their adverts for the Face-lifted car in 77 and restored under 10years ago. post-20412-0-72684900-1503602359_thumb.jpgpost-20412-0-77321500-1503602380_thumb.jpgpost-20412-0-08370900-1503602420_thumb.jpgpost-20412-0-54007000-1503602531_thumb.jpgpost-20412-0-23940200-1503602651_thumb.jpgpost-20412-0-75373200-1503602772_thumb.jpg

A few spots from my tour round France. I didn't get many as we were driving most of the time doing 2600 miles in 10 days.

Sorry for crappy quality. I was turning left and had another car behind me so didn't have time for the camera to focus.

That yellow thing is a Hyundai coupe, Scoupe, or something like that, it's prof that having the smaller of two different sized lights on the outside of a line up of four doesn't work.

 

Edit, forget that, I'm thinking of a slightly earlier model.

The yellow thing is a Hyundai coupe mk2. Blue Fiesta is a Mk1 and the red thing in a Nova or Corsa A if you're being pedantic which I think I've just been :-)

When was the last time you saw these parked up together?

Not sure where this was but the engine stabiliser rod fixing bolt had broke and the carb had been bashing against the bulkhead everytine the car was on / off power eventually causing the main jet to snap.

Towed back to a repairer for a running fault.

That steering / suspension set up looks expensive.

On the local marina used for towing box trailers.

No idea what it is but it's right hand drive.

Hey, I think that's the first time I've ever been 'spotted' on here! And I only had to drive to Wales to make it happen.

 

Also reckon I saw that Cortina with the silly little wheels in Worthing about six years ago

Another one for the wheels are worth more than the car thread.

Renault 19 Sloon, presumably popped through the tunnel and kept going all the way to Loughborough because it's the best place to fill up on quality English wine* to take home.

A rushed photo as I realised the man headed over the carpark was the owner so I had to do one of those pretend-to-read-a-message poses in order not to look weird.08196892a5d1b18fbabce4c3788f16e3.jpg
