A load of old Notts spots

May 16, 2010

These have been cluttering up 'My Pictures' for months now; time to share them with you Shitemeisters...

This lovely Peugeot has been abandoned at a garage in Edwinstowe, possibly by Maid Marian when she married R. Hood there. When I took shittographs they begged me to take the whole wretched car, but it was to no avail:

Nearly nice 1974 Herald, plus spare fibreglass bonnet, found while inspecting chickens on a remote farm near Southwell:

Not really shite: cute Austin which may be seen near King John's Palace in Clipstone:

Another of our French friends. I cheated and took pictures of wrecks round the back of a repair shop:

This was nearby:

Also in Clipstone, it has been like this for months in a public car park:

Vorsprung durch Schadenfreude:

Wonderful Beetle Garden in Nottingham:

So good I had to take another picture of it. Wish I lived opposite:

Blue, blue, electric blue. That's the colour of this, er, Bluebird:

Beeming away:

Discovered this more-or-less Notshite Bond Equipe amongst some bins, getting shat on by small birds:

The owner was a nice chap who came out & told me a bit about it.

He said he had done it up twice before, but is willing to part with it if anyone's interested:

I suggested moving it out of range of the birdshit. Probably the closest I'll ever come to finding a Bugatti in a barn.

Useful sort of sign in Rainworth:

I wish they used honest adjectives more in signs: 'Crap Motorway Services', 'Filthy Canal', 'Ugly Modern Building', 'Village Full of Cunts', etc.

More soon...

That Bond is fab, reminds me of the only GT4S that i've seen with any regularity, which used to be parked in much the same position in a garden near my mum's house. Gone now of course, often wonder what became of it. I reckon there are probably just as many Equipes sitting in gardens as there are on the road, judging by people's spotted threads on here... (I believe it's known as Scimiter-itis)

Rennerth is indeed a foul sewer

There's a nursery (the plant kind, not the other sort full of puling infants) on the A60 near Mansfield where they've left a few shite projects mouldering away. This Watershite probably takes the ship's biscuit (it's 150 miles from the nearest sea at Skeggy):

There is a nice Austin 1300 which has been brutally murdered & chopped into bits:

He is obviously planning to do it up one day; after all, it's protected from the rain, isn't it?

While I was admiring his caravans, noticed the GT's doors:

Oh yes, and the suspension:

It was so thoughtful of him to use transparent plastic, wasn't it? Talking of orange:

Notshite Beetle that tried to chat up my KG in a carpark. And a Notshite KG at Martin's Motorworks:

I am hideous, Orange. Well, this is:

Someone here once said he didn't believe in Foxes, so I have tried to capture images of them ever since. Near Mansfield:

And the You-couldn't-make-it-up Police Fox in Oxford:

I know it's not the Real Rozzers, but all the same, has to be preserved for an unbelieving posterity. Volkswagen affecionados will know that VW always has to have a Shitter in its lineup. When I was a lad it was this:

Absolutely perfect Variant spotted at Stanford Hall Volksorgy a couple of weeks ago. This gem had a nice lady owner who had driven it up from Cheltenham. Here's a great detail:

More from Stanford later. Professional repair spotted at Hucknall:

Further shittifers to follow...

Hmmm. Ponders if the Bond owner was after lots of money. I don't need it, I really don't!

Oh yes you do, you really do!

Classic Fox:

Sample house on rough Oxford estate where you do not want to get caught photographing people's shite:

This is about 30 feet long:

You probably need someone sitting at the other end just to park it:

Amazing old boy with Kubelwagen at Stanford:

Its somewhat basic interior:

He had a camping stove & brewed up in there. Next to it was this Schwimmwagen:

Useful in floods, obviously. Here, for you Shite in Miniature fans, are my (dusty) toy ones:

Absolute shittifer:

Historic sign in Mansfield...

...but the burgers are made from Ye King's Own Venison (yeah, and Robin brought the kebab recipe back from the Crusades).

Lovely Morris in leafy West Bridgford which also had a rather lovely lady owner who was prettily charmed that her wheels got photographed for Autoshite:
