I know. RHD too. I didn't even know they did a RHD one. It's sitting unloved on flat tyres and has been for at least three years - was in exactly the same spot when I was there last.

Pardon my French - but I'm FUCKING DEVASTATED.

 

Just spent a very enjoyable week in Dubrovnik, Croatia with the missus. Even papped a few Yugo's which I'll post later.

 

Last night was the final night of the holiday so we got properly drunk and caught the last bus home. Through my drunken stupor I thought I'd seen a mirage when the bus swept past a TALBOT TAGORA.

 

Surely not?

 

But with our flight being at early o clock this morning I couldn't get back for a photo... So I've had a look at street view...it IS a TAGORA. Gutted.

Loads of stunning spots in this thread.  Tagora, RHD Taunus coupe, and this

looks like a V8-S, the holy grail of SD1s (apart from maybe the diesel if you're strange).

 

Verdict: WINNAH.

It's great to see that most of the good spotted threads are still going.

 

Keep up the excellent work, it's much appreciated.

Thanks bucketeer. Posting spotted stuff can be a bit hit and miss these days with whether folk seem interested or not as often it falls back off the front page very quickly.. but what the hell, I enjoy taking the pics anyway .

 

Skizzer - it is a V8S and a beauty too. I see it from time to time around Aberdeen. I'll try and pap it in daylight.

Some of the grot I spotted around dubrovnik. The croat's car of choice is the Golf.. literally every second car is a golf, mostly mk2s... but there was a decent contingent of rarer chod

Exactly my thoughts.

Us spotters need to stick together, it's becoming a dying industry. All these cheap foreign imports stealing our . . . . . . etc, etc.

It was a great holiday. The place is stunning , but still quite up and coming after the war back in the nineties so it was relatively quiet.

 

Everyone spoke English , there was plenty of shite cars, cheap beer and good food and sights to see..cost 300 each all in flights and accommodation.

 

I'd go back in a heartbeat.

 

EDIT: I'm not sure on the Yugo... There were no badges on the back.

Pointless fact: I got my mk1 Golf specifically to go on a trip to Croatia (and potentially to live there).  Only got as far as the South of France though.

Just a couple to add. Some I'd already stuck on the AS Facebook page. Poor prefect had lost its webasto and the rain was pouring in. Shame!

 

Not entirely sure why the forum has decided the Belmont pic should be sideways, or how to fix it.

Great spots.

I recognise the Ford Prefect and Lada Riva, they've been sitting there for +/- 15 years at least. I have a phobia of papping cars in people's gardens, glad someone's got a photo of them.

What model of Yugo is this? A 411 possibly?

Absolutely love that. Great spot.

Actually those were built by Fiat in Italy and rebadged for Yugoslavia. Zastava built its own unique liftback derivate, the 101.

The initial plan was, that the Zastava built liftbacks would also be sold in Italy under the Innocenti banner, but this never happened.

Thought I'd bring this thread back with some chod I've seen on my daily walks this week.

For a small town, theres quite a lot here. Seems to be a place the dvla seldom visit as I dont think any of these cars are road legal, but are just sitting on the main road

That Elan M100 is a good colour.

No MOT for 5 years, and just 625 miles added in the previous 8 MOTs.  What is the point of this sort of car ownership?

it sits a couple of cars away from the equally unused midget so i assume its the same owner, who just likes to look at them from his kitchen window!
