Quite a few of these Matizeses still rattling around these parts. 
 

There's one of those, same colour, lives next door to us. They've had it at least as long as we've lived here, which is ten years. A couple of weeks ago it went away on the back of a recovery truck. I thought perhaps that was it, but no, it reappeared last week and appears to be in perfect working order again. Which is nice.

Not my photo, but two early ZXs the same colour and in the wild is good going, even in the country of their manufacture.

I don't think this is coincidence, there's a clue in the background

variation on the identically-coloured and consecutively-registered Peugeot theme

Ah go on then, seeing as you asked so nicely. 

[mk2_craig]

And bringing things up to date (in case you cared, the reg mark on the rear one is 3 higher)

[mk2_craig]

More? Ok but probably cheating 

Definitely cheating

Not my spot but I've just seen this on FB and couldn't resist...

Consecutive, hah!

That shot was taken during filming of Thunderball at the Château d'Anet in Eure et Loire

[eddyramrod]

Yes, on FB it was described as a Thunderball backstage shot and I wouldn't be able to disagree.

I know continuity wasn't the strongest suit of older films, but fuck me couldn't they at least get the GB badges on the same side? 😂

Look carefully and you'll notice the number plates are different styles!

 Meanwhile, I thought I'd repost this from my Barrow Wheels thread...

...as a lead-in to these...

Does a pair of these make them "Mokkasins"?

Not an easy angle, but a pair of 207s, both black, both five-door, was worth the effort (wasn't it?).

And from recent events at the Lakeland Motor Museum...

Shooting fish in a barrel with these....

Is that your local herbal distribution centre?

I literally wouldn't have a clue.  But I wouldn't be surprised.  There was a copcar across the end of my street a couple of hours ago, I wonder what that was about...

Twinned?, Try triplets

Seems to be a common thing around here, aside from a neighbour who used to have several L200's and now has a few Zafiras (None colour matching for full twinnage, sadly), There's a house nearby with 3 identical Mitsubishi outlanders and i'm waiting for the holy grail.... the 4 yellow Jeep Renegades all parked in close proximity.

Two of the many Qashqais that live on the next street!

And on the next street along, two Renault Capturs from what could easily have been a selection.

And my dog Memphis.  She is the reason I walk these streets.

At first glance you'd think they were ex Royal Mail but they don't have the tell tale ghost markings so I don't think they are.

Also, not dented enough to be RM! 😀

You’ll be getting bored of this now. Made slightly more interesting by the dead-cert futureSUVshite in between.

Here's the big-budget episode...

And the cheap ripoff...

[fordperv]

I saw another Starlet in the wild a couple of nights ago when I was getting fuel

Mines the blue one

[coachie]

On my daily dog walk.   First time in years that these two beauts haven't been blocked in by other cars.  Puma (now scrapped) and Fabia.

The passenger door on the one further up the drive appears partially open, so it may be beyond hope.

[Schaefft]

24V even!

Meanwhile, two near identical MX5s.
