I was driving when I spotted this delicious duo, albeit stationery/stationary with the parking brake applied, Your Honour.

Yep, me too.

Have not been passed for ages, but remember seeing the Herald a while ago.

 

Just checked Google Maps and it appears to have been there since March 2011 at least.

Tidy looking old Scania on shunting duties.

I've passed this weekly for at least a month.  Keep expecting to see a burnt out shell one week...

Interesting...

 

I took a pic of these way back when, probably about 2010 or summat.

Prior to that, this Jag was in that spot:

Another one from wobble-cam.  Mk I Golf cuts a dash amidst the M1 rush hour dross.

Spotted a few years ago, again, must have been about 2011/12 or there abouts. The Princess was coming from the outskirts of Walsall to join the M6 at Junction 7. I didn't fancy a motorway journey so snapped a pic before it left for the motorway.

Another repurposed old bus.  This one's seemingly a mobile bathroom showroom.

An XJ6 2.9, no less - you can tell by the open script badges. It looks to have 16" Fondmetal alloy wheels, though the angle of the photo makes it difficult to be certain. If it does, then the wheels were worth more than the car. I wonder if they just got  weighed in when the rest of the car was scrapped?

Unsure to be honest. I do recall it having just 15" Standard Lattice, not Fondmetals. Here is another (worse) pic:

The car was just up the road from a Jaguar breakers in Colly Gate near Merry Hill and Stourbridge:

I'd dearly love an XJ6/40 like yours just to own one. Maybe I should give the Colly Gate breakers a call.

E28 displaying that particular kind of patina that only comes from living in London.

Smart 2CV, on the A40/M40, I think.

Two taxed and mot'd Sherpa sports that never seem to move.

 

Looks legit.
