Suppose I should start this again.

These were at the filming location for the Tetris movie

When all the cars lined up properly, did they disappear into thin air?

[Tayne]

These all turned up near where I work 

I’d love to know the story behind the Miami Dolphins Pontiac

Only if they were the same colour

These were in Aberdeen.

The murdered out Alfa 159 was as close to the tip as you’d expect

I installed a wifi access point on the roof of that building in a previous job.

Good view from up there.

The Nio Et5 was in Bergen airport and the Volvo was part of a display in Stockholm

These were in the cock museum in Istanbul 

 

 

[Tayne]

The Enfield was in an industrial museum located in a former power station in Lisbon, the Datsun was on the streets and the wee Chinese thing was along the road in Estoril

[Tayne]

Yes, cock museum.

It houses the collection of Mr Cock, its well worth a visit.

Was that photo taken in Brixton?  

[Tayne]

No, that’s the Zoology Building at Aberdeen University.

I like that Volga in the first picture. Somehow I still haven't managed to have a ride in one of those

The Dolpins Pontiac was made to commemorate their perfect 17 and 0 season in 1972.

We figured that part out, but how did it get over here?

Was it a huge dolphins fan, or just someone who wanted that car?

I want to like these but the one I had ruined them for me.

 

 

Opel Ampera, better know as the Chevy Bolt, a full EV that never made it to the UK.

 

This was a street parked Porsche 991.2 GT3 Touring. With a disclock.

I know these are desirable but I didn’t think they were as easy to steal as a modern Land Rover

Mini, for sale on the street in Essen.
