Chod Bothering & shite spottings. Annual update complete!

[inconsistant]

Yep, another sightings thread, featuring the most delicious humdrum automotive kack I find*

 

*I dom't go looking for it

 

Here's the mossy ovloV from my intro thread, to set the tone suitably low:

 

 

An arty farty shot of my old rgussett brown clubman estate. Featurin' authentic Cosmics and wikid fotoshop skilllllz:

 

 

Spotted by a chum on my behalf, somewhere in the France area of continental europe, during their recent T-cut famine:

Spotted a few years ago at Download Festival:

 

 

 

That lot should be disappointing enough for now, Cheers.

[CreepingJesus]

Maybe the Seat was the tour transport for one of the billion bottom-feeding acts at the drinking time end of the bill? I mean, Penguin Cunt...could be a band name, couldn't it?

If not, then it is now. I claim it. Penguin Cunt; appearing at 11am, at a festival near you...

[Spiny Norman]

Penguin cunt? I'm sure I saw them supporting Twisted Sister in the 80s...

 

What did the graffiti written on the Proton's back window say, I wonder? Looks like 'I hate....' something.

[overrun]

It said 'I hate Protons, because I am an Escort.'

[Lord Sterling]

Looks like it says "I hate chavs" the Escort has Blacked-out rear lights.

[inconsistant]

And red rally style mudflaps???

[inconsistant]

Here's another one from same festival car park as before. Mk1 Mondeo, I believe:

 

 

Didn't see them on the line up. Did see 'And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Chod' though.

 

And to lighten the mood a little here's a couple of those dreadful little Nissan Figaros:

 

 

 

I read somewhere (probably here) that these came in 4 colours, each representing a different season. Good grief.

 

Also, I posted this in another thread, but I'm putting it up here as I'm not certain what it is:

 

 

I'd assumed it was a late 5 door Metro by the wheels and window behind the rear doors, but I'm now wondering maybe Yugo Sana or early Citroen ZX. It was in Catford, if that's any help.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Nah, that's Metro. Giveaways are the two bonnet vent holes and keyhole in front of the door handle, side repeater hole. 

[phil_lihp]

Yup, Rover Metro, the wheels are also a clue.

[Jim Bell]

Well I must say I'm very disappointed in Jesus.

[garethj]

Did you know Jesus' middle name is Harold?  When people say "Jesus H Christ, the H is for Harold.  It's even in the Lord's prayer

 

"Our father, who art in heaven,

Harold be thy name"

[Jim Bell]

He drove a Triumph he did.

"And lo, Jesus did return unto them, in his Triumph."

Psalms 3;18.

 

Bet you it was a Herald.

Harold in his Herald.

[Guest Breadvan72]

Is that why Jesus hasn't come back yet?  His Triumph (Herod) is broken down on the A34 somewhere? 

[inconsistant]

A gorgeous oV 940 2.3se I get to walk past every day.

 

 

 

Back seats are mostly down so I reckon 'se' means swallows everything. In the biblical sense.

[inconsistant]

I don't know if it's the hot weather or something but I must be the only person around here without a picnic...

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can't remember the last time I saw one of these, then the other day I saw these 3 on my walk home from work. The last two were about quarter of a mile apart. Imagine all the scotch eggs and battenberg you could get in the back of one of these.

[chaseracer]

Blimey! So, all three remaining Picnics are near your gaff?

 

You, sir, are a CHOD_GOD!!

[inconsistant]

A pub round these parts has an annual classic car show every august in their field. There's quite a lot of massive sexy american stuff, and a few hotchods, but also there's some delightfully run of the mill chod. Something for everyone to enjoy then, even us miserable bastards. Here's some close up action:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Junkman]

Are you practising for your next Ebay ad?

That should do, I think I've made my point.

 

[purplebargeken]

Total yum, apart from the Orion (sorry). The nut sack thingy was funny. 

[Faker]

Looks like a great day. One criticism though! Whole car pics!!! )

[RichardMoss]

I love the Alvis and the Chargers

 

(Sounds a bit like a Rock and Roll band, doesn't it?)

[inconsistant]

French shite update /  Mise a jour d'automobile 'trop merdique' de Français 

 

 

Recently hols'd in Brittany, where chod spotting is like shooting fish in a barrel. Very quickly got bored of the same old quality tat that would get me all hot and bothered this side of the channel. So here's the hi-shites of my fortnight away...

 

Obviously these:

 

 

This one had a lovely lilly pad effect textured finish:

 

 

L'Yeep:

 

 

Dutch DS down in Dinan:

 

 

 

Apparently awaiting a rad repair before the treck back to NL:

 

 

 

Arfor:

 

 

 

Nissan with mysterious reverse perspective:

 

 

 

Nissan in the pissan rain:

 

 

 

Twingo:

 

 

Three in one Twingos.

Tripletgos.

Honestly you couldn't move for these things. Every car that wasn't a Dacia was a Twingo

They look fab and most have stood the test of time too. Definitely will be future 2CV/R4 shite, I reckon we really missed out not getting these in the UK.

 

 

 

Pooloo in urinal cake turquoise, on a hill, in front of a building, in fab condition :

 

 

 

A less well loved zx:

 

 

 

Just look at this babe. Just the right mix of understated elegance and sporty overtones...

 

 

 

 

Not quite shite but it looks low spec/ low power and was being driven by Monseiur et Madame Giffeur:

 

 

 

 

 

That's all for now, more to come. Or as google translate puts it:

 

"maintenant va te faire foutre" 

[inconsistant]

Une petit peu plus de shite d'haut qualitie...

 

Panda fwoar by fwoar!

 

 

 

tour de shite:

 

 

Van cinque...

In the 90s there used to be loads of faded r4 vans in this colour blue.

I'm pretty sure they're ex french utility vans, maybe electricity or something. Sexy little trailer too:

 

 

 

 

Another one of these. Honestly, all the cars that weren't Dacias or Twingos were these, there were loads of them.

This one was notable for having the covers on, and looking really fresh:

 

 

Red Renner 4, late model I reckon with those wheels:

 

 

 

Renault Nevada... were they called that over here? There was a point where Renault moved from numbers to names I think this were from about then. Was this just a R21 estate in the UK?

 

 

Rover 200 in plush spec:

 

 

Merdes Benz:

 

 

 

Le picnic avec van rouge:

 

 

Shady Supercinq:

 

 

2cv looking immaculate. Cleanest inner wheel arch spot of the holidays. Cheered me up no end:

 

 

 

Ford Orion shite spec 1.8 diesel. Effing marvelous.

 

[meggersdog]

We did get a Renault 21 Savanna. Think it was the seven seat estate

[Jim Bell]

Lots of Fwar in this thread.

 

Keep it up fella.
