Sussex Beauty Spots ( by Mr Reno ) updated 16-10

[mr-reno-139]

hi people thought i might add a few spotted pics not posted any for a while

some go back a few months as mislaid memory card for phone

 

cx lives just round the corner seems to be in regular use

 

 

not seen an orion for a while rusty sills though

 

 

had to visit lucas in hove to get parts last week this was in the car park

 

 

decided my phase 1 td 19 had to go and be recycled

 

 

this 4wd panda is mint complete with blue badge when i drove past recently 2 OAP ladies (1 was driver) were getting out but no camera ready !!!

 

 

extremely tidy fiesta

 

 

chevy caprice?

 

 

racing scimitar?

 

 

GT BX ?

 

 

this one got me for a while (even searching A-S for clues) only been mentioned here once before - any body guess

 

 

quick classic gathering outside my workshop few weeks back

 

 

this was spotted on a ba**er drivers lorry at Arena essex which may be bad news for its well being

 

 

while we are on the subject bought a clio yesterday off a friend of mine who i used to race with many moons ago

he is clearing his yard for redevelopment with a few cars left for sale will pass number on but he is fairly shrewd business man so no real bargains i fear (more to follow pc crashed trying to upload to web inc jensen interceptor t 2500 etc )

That Mk1 Fiesta is ace!Is the Sunny 2dr for sale then? Might be worthwhile me putting it up on the Datsun forum, Datman sold a 4dr this weekend very easily.Shame about the Crown estate, but I imagine it’d be a pain to get bits for so the track seems inevitable if it needs any work.

I spotted that Transit on the A27 in March wearing Aussie plates!What's happened to the R9 Mr Reno?

[andrew e]

I'm loving the faux wires on that wagon! Fuzzy thing a Lancia.

Top stuff mr_reno. That R15 looks great - love the 15/17 dashboard. It came in for a lot of stick when current I think.

 

Shame about the Crown - I love it. I'm sure it passed through ebay a while back. Here it is in happier times (click for link to TEC article)....

[RedSparrow]

Great spotting! Cheers.Worthing area if Im not mistaken?

[retrogeezer]

Fiesta look mint....I like it a lot!

[HillmanImp]

I know that workshop. My mate Caz used to (and probably still does) use it for her Pug 205 Convertible.

[michiel]

Itza Lybra wagon. Nice spots!

[Dead_E23]

only been mentioned here once before - any body guess

Could it be a Lancia Lybra?Speaking of Lancias, I was pleased to see an Ypsilon out and about the other day - but my camera wasn't handy so I could have dreamt it.

[nigel bickle]

Naughty boy. Tell me about the 15? Scimitar? BX.I shall be round with a big stick shortly.....

[Ratdat]

That very R15 is sat outside my place now. Not mine though sadly.
