michiel Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Not much of an update, missed snapping the Maserati Sebring round the corner a few days ago... here's a 1979 Bedford '97560 TU' (according to the authorities) And a nice 1983 exbulance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiel Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Just a few spots... Here's a 1981 CX and a ? DS: A shabby but nice 1967 Amazon: The place where we bought the Sirion started selling 'bishis in 1974ish, didn't keep any but they bought this in 1996: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michiel Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 An IWL SR59 Berlin, more show than go: A 1985 Daihatsu Charade, all of these are Daimatic it seems... careful older owners I guess... A 1973 Ami Break 'édition multi couleurs' A 1973 Opel Admiral A 1964 Duett I thought I had spotted before, turns out it's another grey one... A 1978 Ford F150 Thought it was a big skip, turns out to be a 1976 GMC Pickup A 1982 Transit with 4x4 badge registered as a 'Ford VVS', I guess that's the firm that did the conversion? And a lovely scruffy 1974 GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 That green Lancer is nice. Early one maybe?The Admiral is quite a beast, styling not quite as elegant as Rekord/Commodore maybe but still rather handsome.F150 looks spot-on in that colour scheme. Suit my house improvement works nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiel Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 The Lancer was first registered in june 1975, so that makes it one of the earliest sold here. I spotted the fab F150 several times on the move, think it's indeed a builders' car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyG Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 What's wrong with the white GS? - in the UK it would be regarded as pretty near mint!Have the Amsterdam authorities given up on that proposal to ban or heavily tax pre 1992 cars, Michiel?

michiel Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 1980 Scimitar GTC: I seem to miss a lot of spots lately... quite a few interesting cars on the road, not parked and I'm always too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiel Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Nice & shabby 142: Today a colleague and I (over)loaded the Sirion and brought it to a trade fair in Utrecht: Everyone else drove vans & trucks and laughed at us... This was a nice surprise inside though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michiel Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Long time since the last update, I guess the flow of imports has stopped a bit, except for the smelly and rusty Merc diesel 200s that give classic cars a bad name. Well, not all rusty, but the nice ones will be in a year - people buy them for 3 to 8 grand (really!) for 'cheap' motoring and then let them rot to hell in a few years. 1974 204: 1985 Polo Van & 1984 626 automatic: Lovely 1970 VolksWorkhorse: Gorgeous 1974 504 coupe: One for Hirst? 1975 Ford 'Granada US' according to our dvla: And to top it all off, a 1980 Manta auto on lpg, with some er, accessories: I guess the owner works either in the university or the associated hospital, I see it most days now.

michiel Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 pbottomley, re the Schoolbank camper - a bank is in this case a bench, it's promoting a website where you can look for people you went to school with, although your explanation is more fun! Short update with a 1976 Viva that was once yellow: And some 1988 Armbruster/Stageway Cadillac DeVille Limoshite, FWD V8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordpoplier Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I’ve never seen a stretched Deville in the flesh! Pretty much shite all round even before someone put the effort in to give it a few extra bonus doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
