I'd really fancy a Imp one day, I'm not a fan of the oversized spots on this one though.

Everyone loves a tatty A30/35.

1954 Ford Consul Mk1 by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

The colour scheme on this was perfect, I'd love one of these as well.

1983 Triumph Acclaim HL by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

The owner of this thought he was going to the Spar to by some mints but pulled into the wrong car park.

1972 Hillman Avenger 1500 Deluxe Estate by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

I think the owner of the amazing Avenger is a member of the local car club as it's always by the enty gates at shows.

1973 Renault 15 TS by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

This Renault 15 could have been my car of the show, it was mint, It only had 50k on the clock and even it's dealer sticker in the back window, Fred Winter of Darlington, Check out the 70's interior man!.

1971 Ford Zodiac Executive Mk IV by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

This was for sale for Ã‚Â£1850 which seemed fair but it was a bit grotty, One of the least desirable 60's/70's Fords IMHO.

1981 Morris Marina 1300 L by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

I've posted photos of this before, It most be one of the very last Marinas made, When i posted my last photos of it on Flickr the owner sent me this message.

Hi all, I am the owner of the above car. The story i have is that it was ordered by a chap who was setting up a business in Portugal. After a few years his wife left him and he sold up and came home. Myself i do not think this is true. The log book shows continuous ownership in England. My theory is that it was a "Press car". Built to either have photos taken or to show at a Trade show on the continent. There are many strange features on it such as no front or rear anti-roll bars which would have been a standard fitment on a Marina of its age. There are also some Ital parts and panels on it, i.e. inner wing flitch panels also from the Ital. The other possible is that as the Ital was just about to go into production they used up parts left over. I have spoken to someone that owned a similar car with a Registration not far off and his car was also LHD but had a load of RHD parts on it such as the carpet set which had the built in plastic foot mat on the RH side, he dumped it in the scrap yard as it was always breaking down. The other interesting point is that BL were the first registered owners. If anyone can shed light on it please contact me. TA.

Top class photos as always Trig. So much nice metal.

What a fantastic collection of shite! Love the Marinas, and that ropey 35 is a new one on me as well.

This P5:

is only four digits away from this P6 rotting on a driveway not far from here.

That last Marina is ACE

Trig, you're a legend. Cortina looks bloody mint, wrong front indicators I think but what the hell, it's lovely. LOL @ the 'Poo' number plate on the Farina by the way.

Oh and A35 shot makes me wonder if there's actually any out there that aren't at least 65% plod, 20% newspaper and 15% metal!

32,622 · May 25, 2011

Trig, you're a legend.

Thanks! Funny enough i get told that at work but i think that's because I'm a bit daft at times!.

Gr12 pictchaz, Trig. I may have to refer to all your future work as Triggernometry.

I'm really miffed at totally forgetting to attend.

Still, we bought some lovely lexar beakers at Homestead camping and leisure in Weeley, which was nice.

Some col stuff there - Alfa Giulietta for me but with proper plates on though

I've actually driven that Renner 15 and it's really nice. It was completely the opposite of what I was expecting - in a good way. Awesomes!

Coo! There's some nice stuff there. I do like those MK1V Zodiacs...that ones a grotty colour, mind. That Marina is a right oddity isn't it....I thought I'd only ever seen those late ones on a T or V reg.
