A super-rare car there - an Austin A55 Mk2 estate - only in production two years - I wonder if there are any left?

DS estate one car up too.

I'm trying to work out where this was taken, I don't recognise the number plates & it's at least the early 1960s going by the Beetle's rear screen.

Australia got a Morris flavour too - never sold here.

Not sure about the beauty...

Esso - Central Garage, 1297 Warwick Road, Olton, Birmingham, West Midlands 2nd February 1959

 

 

If I've done my research correctly this site is still selling petrol, albeit in a more modern setting: it's an ESSO forecourt, complete with a Tesco Express! Somehow I'd rather fill up at the old pumps....
