That rear plate is a work of art.  What an absolutely glorious, shonky old thing.  Is there a way of stopping the rust spreading without making it look ugly? I know Vactan is good but everything goes black.

Late plate (beautiful) madness.

The car is fitted with a fantastic set (5) of Mexican hat alloys

Never knew they were called that.

My dad drove a 190E Taxi that was a D plate. 

It was the only beige one on the fleet and nobody liked it. Poor thing.

Could be a pea roast, but those plates...

Rust in rear arches, sills, doors, inner front wings around bonnet hinge, around front screen and boot windows.

Never mind.  The usual in these instances applies.

That is rather splendid - 87 on a D eh?  

If what he says about the paint is true, then it could be difficult getting a nice match once you've done the remedials.  Unless the VIN actually matches what the car is wearing - in which case NO DRAMA.

I think it's really nice.  Sadly, the ones I really really like are now £ProperMoney but there's something quite beguiling about it.
