What's a Subaru Ace??I've got a soft spot for these little Japanese cars, I've had a couple of Suzuki Whizzkids (SC100GX) over the years. It comes from reading the Tamiya model catalogues when I was 10....

Lovely-just lovelyReminds me of when I were a lad. I miss places like that now...

Ace is called Mini Jumbo here, don't see them anymore, apart from the one usually filled with chairs and (small) boxes of tat around the corner, always good for a smile.

That's not a yard, it's a field.Full of lovely stuff.Environment Agency would go berserk if they saw that here. :DAre those some sort of adjustable ballast (water) tank on the front of the recovery trucks - to help keep the front wheels on the road when towing?

Quite agree about the enviroment agency, the trucks look like runway de-icers or something like that to me.
