Birmingham? Can’t quite make at the bus route sign…

Looks like a Bournemouth bus though.

Portman BS head office in background by the looks of it, so Bournemouth is indeed a good shout.

Part of that change was to purchase better police cars:wink:

Didn’t the Tudor have wood panelling like a Morris Minor traveller but painted black and white? 

The Mock Tudor.

I've always thought that warning sign a tad offensive, especially to less academic youngsters.

Remember the old road sign which read 'Slow Workmen Ahead'? Now replaced with 'Workforce Ahead, Slow'. No doubt this followed complaints. Lorries don't have it quite so lucky, watch out for daft DAF's -

Having a bit of a clear out of junk at the moment. This is in one of many boxes of tat that we have. I will not be throwing this out.

I kept this because I have always liked the HA Viva. Good turning circle, excellent gear change, huge boot, which was bigger that Mk1 Cortina. I had the optional (on the deluxe) servo disc brakes. Stopping power was very good.

The rust could have been worse on mine, but it did rust. The ride could have been better too. However, it was the same with contemporaries of the period, on both issues. At least it was not boy racered like Fords of the time were.

Renault Prairie bottom left. They did a  pick-up and 5-door. They look like something designed by Herge for Tintin.

That’s a Horch Kfz70 in the centre of the top photo. The other might be another Horch, probably a kfz 15 but the same body style was built by several manufacturers.
