A red F reg (or thereabouts) Mazda 121 driving into the car park of my new workplace. I couldn't believe my eyes!

On the car park at Sainsbury's in Oldbury, F reg Nissan Sunny hatch, R reg Toyota Corolla 5 door and something I hadn't seen for ages, an H reg Ford Granada GL 4 door saloon. The Sunny and Corolla are regulars but the Granada was a pleasant surprise and in very nice condition too.

Which end of the plate is the V?

A Skoda Felicia estate drove by here today looked well maintained and looked after. It's been a while since I last saw one of these.

Saw this going through Dumfries on a trailer this evening.  I believe there is only one in existence.  (Not my photo obviously).

Ayrshire registered Y-reg 3 series in black at a set of lights in the West End of Glasgow. You'd have thought it had just come out of the showroom.

While I was heading north on my Triumph bits collection trip, I spotted a black D reg Sierra cruising up the motorway. Looked like a nice spec, and in good nick. 

For bonus rep points, it had a jacket (or maybe a shirt) hanging in the back seat. Loses rep points for doing under the speed limit and not being on a comically large mobile phone, however.

Spotted a black Alfa 164 going the other way as I drove to work this morning, its been literal years since I last saw one, fantastic looking cars!

Posted

A mint white BMW E36 316/18/20 from 1991/2 (J reg), going through a car wash at Sainsburys, Tewkesbury Rd, Cheltenham. Only saw the front and side view so a guess on the model, but it was obv a entry-level one from all the black bits that would have been body colour on posher ones. 

The only thing I could see wasn’t base spec were the alloys, which were period BMW ones and may well have been the original optional extras. 

I do see the odd very clean E36 saloon around Gloucestershire, including a red one - that was amazingly still red - so they are still out there!

A convertible micra. Never seem one, assume not factory but looked pretty well done! 

Posted

On Sunday, on Sandy Lane, turning across me to access Services....

RS200 'snowblindness white' - factory, all the toys..... 'D' plate I think....

Citroen SM on Leamington Spa high street. Had several additional mirrors and it looked rough, but hats off for December shopping use

A very clean looking Rover 400 HH-R saloon, in Nightfire red. Unmistakable even from a distance. I saw it coming from a mile off (not literally, but you know!)

Posted

L-reg Passat 1.9 TD going very slowly and puffing out plenty of coal smoke.

Not seen it before, I wonder if it's a local farmer/giffer type owner.

I remember when these felt 'modern'. Not just a diesel, but a turbo diesel! How space age!
