Billy - Medhurst Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 This is Chris - With his new Metro 1300 Automatic on motorbility. A step up in most peoples eyes from his Invacar. However this being Autoshite some will disagree. 1984 AUSTIN METRO 1275cc A220GFP by Jonathan, on Flickr This was in and out of the main dealers quite a few times to find a strange rattle - they failed. I found it for him though. Unused bolts dumped in the seat support channel under the passengers seat.

Dick Longbridge Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Just now, Rab said: It being a Storm..i remember John complaining about the insurance..considering he had a Renault 5 before this. Its amazing that this VW actually survived..outliving its original owner bless him... Volkswagen kept the Storm name going until about 96 iirc with the last Corrado VR6s. Ideal opportunity to throw some cow into the interior mix. To be fair, your uncle's Scirocco has been SORN since 2010, so it's may not be in the first flush of youth. Great that it still exists in some form though. Cavcraft and Rab 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 Eastgate Street, facing the cross. Hard to pin a year on this, would hazard a guess at late 1960's/early 1970's. Northgate Street, facing the cross. Halfords used to be on the right, a bit further behind the Morris Minor. RayMK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyW201 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 The old ABC cinema, at the Linthorpe Rd/Borough Rd crossroads, Middlesbrough. The 'Now Showing' sign gives a clue to the year! A veritable smorgasbord of shite, with treats like the Pug 504, Lada, the Sabre 500 wheeltrim-shod Mini, the Rostyled-up Ascona B and the arse end of a Cleveland Transit Fleetline.

mk2_craig Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 My photos are a bit disjointed but having just acquired a massive external hard drive (fnarr) I've started having a look through some from about 20 years ago, this is Edinburgh and its environs: Crashed Prelude, I think it was fixed though and went on a few more years Strangely abandoned looking SL, complete with dodgy plate character action I was photographing the resprayed Courier on Fiesta Turbo rims, but the other street clutter is of interest nowadays. Who is it on here has a thing for those old Carltons? More when (if) I find them. Cavcraft, Eyersey1234, uk_senator and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
