Nibbler Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 This Capri Mk.1 -69 was just a couple of hundred meters from the Transit. I actually had a look at this Capri back in 1997 when it was up for sale. But it was already then too far gone. It was a 1600 XL or something similar from the beginning. But when i drove it, it had an 2,3 V6 from a Granada or Capri Mk.2 and a 5-speed gearbox. It was horrible to drive, brake servo was shoot and the throttle was sticking. My earliest memories of this car are from 1991 when it was a really good looking RS lookalike, after that it went downhill... The car is now gone and it´s whereabouts are unknown. danthecapriman, Shite Ron, puddlethumper and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibbler Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 This Opel Commodore and rather nice looking Volvo 240 was found at an abandoned farm. The 240 was in quite good condition, the Opel not so much... Rightnider, Datsuncog, Dick Longbridge and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking to good for the old Volvo. It’s a 1988. Not had an MOT since 2004. Current owner since 1994 and he is still paying the registration fee. I presume it’s a he based on the amount of bottles all over the farm. Dyslexic Viking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibbler Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 A wrecked Aerodeck in the middle of nowhere. I like this area, wide gravel roads built to service the massive wind turbines and no people.

One of the rims on the right side was wrecked. The car could have been there for weeks before anyone took notice. So cat is probably still in the car.
