Stuff I've seen!-Update 2.11.08

[155V6]

As I spend most of my time driving about,I started taking my camera with me.Here's what I spotted this week

[Mr Lobster]

 

Just needs a big red stripe to look like a half arsed A Team van.

 

Nice pictures, Honda is nice, bet the guy at the BX house is popular with the neighbours

That is someone who belongs on here-give him a card

[michiel]

Lovin' da Z.

[retrogeezer]

Honda Z is an unbelievable spot....shame it is outside in the elements..

Seconded. Only time I`ve ever seen a picture of one on english plates.How come whenever you see a collection of dead examples of the same car it`s nearly always Citroen BXs? Rather than a half arsed A-team van, I think the CF should be made into a spectacularily half-arsed Only fools and horses van.

[Cavcraft]

Awesome stuff! Used to be at least one (but I think two) Honda Z models up someone's drive in Shrewsbury, Shropshire a few years back.CF needs a 'muriel' painting on it to complete the look. Probably some sort of spazzy white horse thing rearing up on it's back legs whilst being struck by lightning and some badly paint, long haired, dizzy blonde bint next to it.Whose are the BX's then, Jonkw's at a guess?

Station Road, Thatcham, perchance? You beat me to them if it is! Although there is an even bigger, more secretive cache of old BXs in Kingsclere, must stick my camera over the fence and capture it...

[Richard]

On my commute I used to see a BX inside a decaying wooden garage. After a while the garage collapsed sideways in the wind so that the BX was holding it up.

[Ratdat]

There's a collosal hoard of BX's near me. I'd guess there's over 40 in there. There's a handful of GS and CX's too.

The CF looks as though it's got some sort of custom paint under the black,& it's just been sprayed over

That's the place,I've been down there loads of times,but never noticed the BXs before I discovered this site

[Split_Pin]

Nice spottage.Im very much liking that white GS with the black vynl roof in amongst the huge BX hoard.Similar place near me, except its Volvo's, and another place, its Renaults.

I quite like that CF... needs a Rover V8.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing to! Here's a hoard of BXs near me, totalled nearly 50 cars at one time, they've all been bailed now.

It's behind a place called Bullwinkles Garage at Baumber just west of Horncastle on the A158 in Lincolnshire.

 

 

I just remembered another place which is just off a roundabout on the A17 heading down to Kings Lynn. This place is also full of dead BX's and as I recall a curiously high proportion of old Renault Master vans....

 

[Cavcraft]

Cheers Rat. I'll have to make a beeline for that next time I go to Lincoln to visit the 'rents.Father Ted, is this a known one on BXC?

[Gompo]

Interesting that the Honda has it's number plate partly obscured?..I thought it could have been for some pics for a for sale advert, but the fact that it's got something cable-tied to it makes it look quite permanent?

[Richard]

Maybe they covered the number for trailering to avoid getting hit by an ANPR camera.

I haven't seen much out on the road this week,so I had a look round at work & found these

[fordnut]

Sod the Alfa I want to see some pictures of the Escort that's lurking in the background is it a pukka WRC Cosworth?

[andrew e]

Sod the Escrote, what about the NISMO Sunny?

[55bloke]

None of the above come close to that fintail Merc!! Yummy!!

[155V6]

Not sure if the Escort's an updated Cosworth or a real WRC,that & the Alfa are both outside a place that prepares race cars.The Merc Fintail is for sale,the owner wants 3500 for it

Maybe SS90 has bought a house in England!

These are a top noth little band of spots, especially the Z600, but the Chevette Estate is also highly rated.

And that's what makes it such a wonderful place!! Far and away the most visited website on this computer!

Here's a few new ones from the last week,sorry about the quality of the 1st one

 

The next 3 were all within 100 yards of each other

 

A few random spots,

 

One for the Citroen fans

 

My favourite one,this comes from round the corner of where I live,but it's normally in a driveway with other cars in front,so when I came home & saw it outside my flat,I didn't hang about
