davocano Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 F133 something something something.... might have been a 'P' in there somewhere Sierra estate in dirty white, wheel trims suggested 'L' spec
BL Bloke Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 A mega spot this morning in the shape of a red H reg Lada Samara 1300GL. I really need to take my camera with me when I go out. ? This afternoon's spot, a dusky pink S reg Daihatsu Sirion. LightBulbFun 1
Alusilber Posted December 5, 2019 Posted December 5, 2019 Yesterday morning, I spotted an old boy driving a green Lancia Beta HPE into Edinburgh. I wasn't expecting that. somewhatfoolish 1
leafsprung Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Utterly non-shite Rolls Royce Phantom with the reg F4TSO did make me chuckle this morning. Then to balance things out saw a delightfully shabby Series 1 P6 giving it some beans on the M25.
greengartside Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Spotted a T-plate Escort saloon bombing down the A140 a few weeks back. OMG L8 REG MADNEZ.
Austat Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 I recall some interesting stuff whilst on holiday in Vietnam. In Ho Chi Minh I remember spotting a 1st Gen Honda Civic at a petrol station, it was a red 2 door. I also recall spotting something quite interesting on a highway to Hanoi. At a construction site on the side of the highway, it appeared some builders had found a Peugeot 404 that was discovered in the building they were renovating. It looked quite nice, all of it was there, it was white saloon with light brown dust all over it. Ho Chi Minh had a 1964 404 Saloon himself at one point, given to him as a present from some New Caledonians. Wish I took a photo of those two cars I spotted. Saying that I did manage to capture some on photo whilst I was there: - A UAZ 452 Ambulance (I believe a military one), I saw a few of these during my visit: - A GAZ 24 (Volga), once owned by a high ranking official I imagine, now rotting away: - As well as a VW Beetle 1303 I spotted in Hanoi: - At the Independence Palace in Ho Chi Minh, I also spotted this tatty Merc with shite hubcaps. Forgot why this was here: - Of course, no visit to Vietnam is complete without spotting a Honda Cub 50: Re-reading this, I've sought of lost the point of this thread. Shit, oh well.

quicksilver Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 A real cracker drove past me this afternoon: an immaculate beige Mk2 Fiesta Popular Plus in all its poverty spec glory LightBulbFun 1
sdkrc Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Gold Proton Jumbuck with a trials bike in the back parked outside Glasgow hospital. Good to see someone making use of the pickup bed for once
leafsprung Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 Another 'interesting' reg spot today. Cuthbert Ulysses Mcdonald has only gone and got himself a private plate for his new Discovery with his initials on. Yes, it's V8 CUM..... CreepingJesus 1
anonymous user Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 I have seen it once before and now again, around Bridgend, I need to find who owns it and whether they'll sell it to me, it's so hideous I want it. A Mitsuoka Galue.
MarvinsMom Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 morrisons yesterday morning, we got parked up next to a really nice looking Rover P6B V8, sat on SD1 alloy lattice wheels. in old english white. now i wasn't expecting too see one of those out and about, this time of year!
maxxo Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 Second time i've spotted the ultimate shite, a grey daewoo espero!!! both times have been in hartlepool so it may live there, all i know is i want it. And today a fantastic blue avantime v6! Dave_Q 1
MorrisItalSLX Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 A trip into the big smoke only revealed an 80s facelift 2 door Alfasud in a fetching shade of formerly-red, looked to be a daily driver.
BL Bloke Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Asia Motors Rocsta and a very nice metallic blue Mk4 Ford Zodiac.
Kowalski Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 Renault Safrane V6 with two flat tyres in Upton on Severn marina car park. No tax or mot. No photos either, got to pretend to be normal amongst my boaty associates... L5 VNE
davocano Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 London-bound on the A3 this afternoon, a UK-registered Hyundai Grandeur V6.
CreepingJesus Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Not strictly 'shite' by my estimation, but as I tried to snap it and was foiled by potato phone slowness, it can go here to exorcise the ghost of failure. Metallic blue Hillman Hunter estate in St Andrews the other day: the nice one with four headlights and lots of chrome. Forget the reg now, but it was nice...didn't look restored, more 'good used', sounded nice and left a nice trail of stink as it passed! Dave_Q 1
davocano Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 BPE11H BMW 2000 CS Oooft. Dave_Q and LightBulbFun 2
MiniMort Posted July 23, 2020 Posted July 23, 2020 Didn't realise this thread existed but on Sunday I only went and saw a Yugo 45! It was that dark red colour and on a H reg - can't be too many like it now. LightBulbFun 1
sheffcortinacentre Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 Can't think where else to put this, tonight's episode of special branch had a red Citroen ID19 decapitle in it.
RayMK Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 Whist driving near Cheltenham on Sunday 19th July, a very nice gold coloured, chrome bumpered Citroen CX floated past in the other direction. So nice to see clean design amongst all the modern dumpy, chunky, bloated things. LightBulbFun 1
anonymous user Posted August 12, 2020 Posted August 12, 2020 A few miles down the road from me is a house where the vehicles indicate an owner who may well fit in on here, seems to have three matching green Saabs (only realised there were different ones after going up an adjacent road and seeing the other two in the private lay by) The Alfa 156 that was on the drive is now up with the Saabs. Also on the drive is a TVR 3000, this was in front of the garage door for years and looks to have been off the road since 2009, it moved sideways a little while ago leaving the garage door clear. I have always wondered if there was anything in the garage, on my way home earlier the garage door was open and inside is an orange Reliant Scimitar (covered in the usual garage detritus)
davocano Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Not on it's way to the XR protests, a Toyota Mirai (hydrogen-powered futurewang) in Met Police spec.
davocano Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Oh, and a Datsun 260C (could've been a 280C) that was a bit lowered and a bit loudered.
bangernomics Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Driving between Quintin and st brieuc yesterday I saw a driveway with an Astra d estate, a Renault 11, Renault 25 and finally a mint green twingo. All looked knackered.
leafsprung Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 A tidy looking white Nissan Bluebird wearing chrome Rostyles was an interesting spot in Wroxham, Norfolk yesterday. Then later on a decidedly shabby blue SD1 towing a home-brewed trailer full of building sand went by in Bungay in Suffolk.
Pieman Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Near Lichfield yesterday I spotted a dark blue Lotus Esprit, and then later on in almost the same place a blue Messerschmitt bubble car!
davocano Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 WLA35X Cortina 1.6 Carousel in two-tone green. According to MOT history it's done less than sixty miles in the last ten years so I doubt I'll see it again.
