Mabel you silly old mare you've flooded the Rover, that's the last time I let you drive.

I like the caption saying it was "driven by an elderly couple" - it might have been better if only one of them was driving!

Oh I'm half pissed Mildred, you do the gears & I'll steer with my sober half....

Shitefest, June 1918.

Interesting. What's in here?

Rovers.

[JeeExEll]

Closer look.

Couple of Renners too. May as well take a walk further down.

[JeeExEll]

More Rennage.

[JeeExEll]

Even more Renners.

Check out the 4 pick-up.

Edinburgh, 1970.

Devon / Renner contrast. At first glance I thought the Austin was a Jowett Javelin.

 

 

A Jowett / Renault contrast looks like this:

^ Class.

"Here's one I did earlier".

Good try with the Austin.

Pic fits right in with the 1970 ones.

Tin barrels.

Black & silver plates. On the Cortina too.

1974.

Interesting. What's along here?

Rovers.

At first I thought it was a wider angle view of The Junktowers Garden, than we normally get to see.

That report is wrong, there were three people in that P6 and it belonged to a lady called Annie Walker.

Apologies for colour photo, in my defence it was black and white in our house when I saw it on the telly.

"Some fish please".

[JeeExEll]

Two tins of paint and not enough in either of them to spray the whole car. What a conundrum.

Tin barrels.

 

The British motor industry seemed secure at this point, judging by this photo.

1970. What is it? Any guesses? I have a pic from another angle.

That high roofed Commer PB must have had fun* handling on its narrow track.

The lwb Landy looks like a camper too, what have the two mk2 cortina estates got on the roof.

 Camera platforms......or grandstands

MG Magnette ZA.

Yaaaay

(Close enough. I just recognise it as a Magnette, don't know exact model. Small single tail-lights. Might be a Wolseley 4/44 version? Pic too blurry for detail).
