Is that still a Peugeot garage? Has been for as long as I remember

Here's proper shite... Lindsay Motors in Southbourne near Bournemouth. They were Lada, then Proton ...any any other low end chod that they could flog.. Check out the mythical early Pony pickup with twin headlights... never seen one of those in the UK.

A bit later but here's a couple of Peugeot dealers, Normans Conquest Slough and Grange Uxbridge, when I worked there in the early nineties.  Some interesting machinery in front of Grange, we were off to a classic car show that morning - the 204 Cabrio was mine.

Amazing!

There was a Citroen dealer down the road from me called Cubbin & North. It is now luxury apartments. I think there are actually three or four smallish dealers on the whole of Wirral now (possibly a few more).

 

What happened to shop signs? They look awful now, :(

A. F. Tann at Worcester Park, London. This is where I picked up my old Datsun B10 (which now belongs to Mash of this 'ere parish). Sadly, this dealership is no longer there having been flattened to build housing

Sadly another example of a rural outlet (this one is near Stratford-upon-Avon) that's now parts & service only...
