Spots roundabout Milton Keynes

[Arkle]

Well I may be new here and this first bunch of photos might be a fairly meagre offering, but I’ve decided to have a bash at this spotting unloved chod malarky. So here goes, the first of what will hopefully be grow to be many shots of autoshite from around Milton Keynes. Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

This lives down my street. Erik Carlsson special edition. Lovely, lovely turbo-lagged loveliness.

Anyone who doesn't like that Saab should be shot! As you said, Lovely!

It's been there for years and rarely moves. It replaced an earlier generation Corrolla that sat for even longer in the same spot, slowly returning to nature.

I don't. I think the Tupperware ruins the lines of the 900 and I've never liked the 3 spoke alloys either.

Kind of agree. I like an early 900, but, like with a lot of long-in-the-tooth models, once a manufacturer starts adding on various spoilers & skirts etc it ruins the purity of the original design. See also Jag XJ-S, Lotus Esprit, Alfa Spyder etc etc....

I suppose it's very 'of its time', a bit of a late 80's hangover what with the front spoiler and things. I'm a bit of a fan though and I even like the wheels. And they'd probably fit my Sierra...

Liking that CF!

[wilko]

Some mates of mine own a scrap yard in Milton Keynes - a modified red CF was scrapped there last year - 3.5 manual with jag IRS running on 14 inch Wellers. We "baggsied" all the useful bits immediately! I wonder if it was the same blokes?I spend a lot of time in Milton Keynes, my number 1 spot was a piece of fully restored 1950's uber shite - a Nash Metropolitan! It lives in a garage in New Bradwell and a BMC A60 saloon lives on the road in the next street.
