It's a Ford, everyone knows the bits off one fit all* the others. I had MK5 wheels on my 1600E Onion

Some dash cam grabs, so the quality is not so good.

Saab maybe 9-3. Reg gives it as being from 2009

 

[Remspoor]

Two Volvos.

Coupe from 2001

an Estate from 1996. Both seen in the same small town.

[Remspoor]

Last for now.

A Mégane coupe from 2003. That would make it a late registration for one of these.

So you don't have to guess where the question starts?

Presumably for the same reasons why they use an upside-down exclamation mark at the beginning of exclamations!?

It will not be for sale and if it was you will have huge trouble importing it now The B word has happened.

To answer your question about marks.

They  can act like the word "do". You know how in English we say, Do you want to go to the market?" Well, there really isn't a "do" for Spanish.

"Do you want to go to the market?" ---- "¿Quieres ir a la mercado?"

"I want to go to the office!" ---- "¡Quiero ir a la oficina!"

That was before Brexit, when the EU were able to insist we had square potatoes* and other such nonsense

I don't want it so there is no reason to leave the note you asked for me to do.

[Remspoor]

I am not a fan of theses  Tigra. However, this thing is is such good condition that it deserves a image placed here.

[Remspoor]

More dash cam shots.

Second car on the left Peugeot 205 Rallye

Renault 21 and Fluence /the later was not an EV. I do not think the UK got ICE versions.

First generation of a Citroen Picasso and Nissan X-Trail. Still in public service with the National Police (Cuerpo Nacional de Policía)

[Remspoor]

A SEAT Ibiza, first generation. I would love to sit in one to see how the switches operate. They do not have storks for lights and indicators.

A surprising number of these are still on the road in Spain.

Made in Spain, under licence, by FASA

Bit pee'd off as I have not seen too many old cars (by that I mean over 20 years old) in these here parts.

I was looking forward to the local car meet up next week on the first Sunday of the month. Turns out its on the last Sunday of the month (ie today). Bollocks.

 

[Remspoor]

SEAT 600 with a Citroën Dyane Acadiane.  This has been converted to a coffee bar. It has no engine and will not be road legal.

[Remspoor]

This one is complicated.

A lorry with a Renault badge, In the UK often seen as a Dodge. But Renault purchased the brand when Chrysler sold the UK plants. This truck was made in Spain by the company Barreiros.  That comapny has a bit of a chequered ownership. The made a number of vehicles under licnce WiKI. So is it a Dodge, Renault, Or A Barreiros?

My app dates the registration as being 1986. This old classic is still in service. Even if the tank in the rear leaks like a sieve. Look under the vehicle in the front view.

 

[Remspoor]

Another oddity A Ford Explorer. My app says the registration is from 1992. Second year of production.

The car was hand painted in a lot of places. The bodywork has many deformations. The car was unoccupied at time of photos. When I walked passed the driver was trying to start it. That took about 5 attempts.

 

[Remspoor]

Market day.

Renault Master. Registered 1993,  still working for a living.
