I wonder what those rear lights were sourced from? Those shut / sewage lines to accommodate make my eyes itch.

Audi A4 estate, I think?

Has anyone ever compiled a list of all the different rear light clusters these were fitted with throughout their production life?  Senator B and Bedford CF2 are the other two that immediately spring to mind, but I'm sure there were more.

Ooh, that's exactly like my old one.  (Except mine was on a Y suffix for some reason.)

probably because it was imported Pre August 1983, back then imports and demobbed army vehicles etc, got given a registration plate based on date of first registration rather then vehicle age, that policy ended with the commence of A Prefix, then everything onwards got appropriate age related plates for the most part!

question is, is your old one still on its Y suffix plate? a lot of these pre August 1983 imports have sadly been through keepers which have requested an age related mark and lost their late registration madness marks!

Not sure they would - once a car is >40 years old you can get away with a lot more.

nah not anymore a little while back they thankfully put the kybosh on that, its now Pre 1980 or older only for white/silver and black plates, it does not roll forward with the historic vehicle tax anymore

really they should of rolled it back to 1st of Jan 1973 like it was in period, but they said they did not want to cause unnecessary expense for those who had already bought new plates...

*Idea for a new telly programme: 'Through The Car Hole' where guests have to guess what part of this wonderful island the vehicle is located. Today is a Sunday league Z team assistant reserve's Range Rover

Picture 1 of 5

Range Rover sport needs repair | eBay

 

Is it:

1) 19-ish miles by road sort of south of Morecambe

2) 7.2 miles from Fleetwood

3) 17.2 miles down the A55 from Preston

4) Blackpool

 

Any clues, Mr/s Vendor?

'not shore' 

Hopefully it's the north one so you could push this right off the end of the pier.

What planet are people on, a few years ago they were worth £500

It's almost as if classic/desirable/rare cars go up in value isn't it? How strange.

wonder what reaction you'd get driving one of these round North Kent?

Waves of adoration and knickers thrown at you? You would if you cruised past me at any rate
