cms206 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I'll think of a better name at some point, but I've already been up for 16 hours and I'm getting tired... some of the more interesting spots from the past few weeks worthy of the bangernomics banner... If this goes down well I might get some more up, so to speak... ! Andy mk2_craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimad5 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Well Andy i am glad you have posted these pictures up, as that Polo has made me laugh . I guess "Rat Look" has had it's day, it is now "House look" Madness what some people do. Thanks for sharing your snaps, look forward to the next batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Tidy! I know that you mean about Edinburgh being good for shite. I work in Dalry road, next to the office window, and I've spotted a fair amount of tat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cms206 Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Cheers for the comments guys, I'll stick up another batch from my recent archives this evening... scooters - 5GTL was in Millport, along with a C-reg Shogun the only shite on the island... I expected so much more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms206 Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Another few from the archives... My baby, complete with Daewoo issue alloys... Still tempted to leave a note under the wiper on this one... Probably cheating, this one is my mate's and shares driveway space with a D-reg Manta... This passed me last week so still lives... ... foreign shite... lets hear it for the Daewoo Racer! more camper shite... and finally, foreign pointless estate shite: More next week I think, don't want to overshite the place *too* quickly!

I expected so much more!too bloody posh by half over there! Off to Spain in a week - however, last time I was there there was little or no shite on offer - their economy has been based around fuckcheap credit like ours so full of new VAG shite usually in S(H)E-AT form best shite I have seen recently was in Edinburgh - pilton and silverknowes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWPowered Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 great spots, only ever seen a kia pride estate in france, never saw one in the uk.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milford Cubicle Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Those Cortina Starcraft campers are startlingly shite! I think one was for sale in a few issues of Jalopy magazine, I wonder if it ever sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortinaDave Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 fantastic selection. There are a high percentage of nutters in the glasweigan region which means you get a decent selection of great shite in the area. I agree edinburgh can also throw up some real gems. Aberdeen appears to have very little though, my Mk4 cortina seems to attact more attention there than normal, i think because there is a general lack of interesting shite around. mk2_craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreepingJesus Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I was going to say that the camper was some sort of kit car, but Milf's beaten me to it! Quality spots, especially the bizarre handpainted ones. There's a few oddities kicking about here in Fife I'd like to snap - a yellow Mk3 'Tina I saw recently for one - but I'd like an excuse to get back to Lismore, only with a camera this time. To say that they don't take roadworthiness seriously over there, would be an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortinaDave Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 the yellow mk3 is my old one, its just been sold to a bloke from dunfermline who is using it instead of his works van. Respect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Another few from the archives... My baby, complete with Daewoo issue alloys... Quite possibly my favourite car of all time. 8V 130 I hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms206 Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 Certainly is Cavette, bit of a bargain for a pretty unmolested 2.0 8v but now needing the usual 80's Vauxhall weldings underneath. Had to take that photo that way round cos some pillock had reversed into the other side, but it's almost sorted now... ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms206 Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 Another quick update... Dutch shite. Czech shite. Soviet shite. Italian shite. Solid gold shite. Rapidly dissolving shite. German shite x2. Royale shite. Diesel shite. Mouldy shite. Sorry for captions, I'll come up with better next time! promise!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Sod the captions, (I'm crap at them myself) They are great spots!, I'm loving the Lada Samara with the jazzy bodykit!, I used to have a brochure for that model but sold it on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete-M Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I had a 2.3 Ghia auto identical to this. EWM???Y. Gearbox was knackered in it, but it got me to London and back a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortinaDave Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Y and A reg Sierras are unburstable... built out of really good quality thick metal, thats why most mk1 survivors are early ones, after that they started building them out of sausages to save cash so they all rotted away quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrett Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Skodas in the snow picture is definitely AutoShite calender material, for December methinks. Thanks for sharing these, I love the Royale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sterling Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Nice. I like this. Can I use this pic on the Rover site? Very early Sierra, was this the earliest reg they came out on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
