A Few Spots - Including Poland & Rutland


Recommended Posts

Evening all.

 

I had a recent holiday in Poland. Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to do much spotting but did manage to snap a couple of bits & bobs...

This one's an FSO 125:

It was riddled with Fiat 126's...

Love the colour of this one:

I went cycling round Rutland Water on Saturday. There had been a Jaguar do somewhere locally, so I was pleased to be greeted by these two beauts (the 420/MkX is my fave Jag evah!):

Then, after my bike ride, these two Mk3 E-Types showed up. I think the Mk3 looks awful as a FHC but am beginning to think it doesn't look to bad as a Roadster:

But, saving the best 'till last. Perfect...........

Ace spotting! I know a Polish bloke over here, wonder if I can wangle a Polonez estate out of him? :D What a snazzy piece of kit that is. I bet it'll carry almost as much as a Volvo too, it looks huge.

There were obviously loads of Polonez's out there. I was getting frustratated at not having the chance to photograph any, but lo & behold, when I did get the chance it was an estate. Bingo! Pretty sure the estate wasn't available in Blighty...

Rutland Water, you were a lot closer to an FSO than going all the way to Poland! :)

Whereabouts are you Benno?

Aha! Small world! I love cycling round Rutland Water in the summer.

Yeah me too, it's great to have something like that on your doorstep. :)

Yep, set off from the south shore car park & stop off for a refreshing pint at the Horse & Jockey in Manton on the way round. A perfect way to spend a summer's afternoon :D

I can recommend monday nights at the Horse and Jockey, they do a very good curry
