How much does it cost to Oldham?
No Dougal, that’s NOT a very small man in that nice car.

Built in Yorkshire!
I know where this resides, & it travelled less than a mile

I am reminded.
Brian, a somewhat eccentric Yorkshireman, work colleague, and friend at a college in a London Borough had a similar picture at his desk. People used to ask, 'wow, is that your car Brian'; to which he would reply,' no it just gives me the opportunity to say that even Jupiter is culturally closer to Yorkshire than this 'sh****le.
He had previously owned a Javelin though before he had a thing for the XJ12.

I was split between this & the 'Classic Trucks' thread, but chose this one
Anglia Motel
A17
Fleet Hargate
Lincolnshire
(Tuesday 29th January 2019)
We'd gone down to King's Lynn, as Senior Management was doing some consultancy work at the Hospital there (Queen Elizabeth?), so on the way home, we stopped here
I'd spend the morning wandering around the centre of 'K-L', what a lovely place it is!
It still had a Wimpy!!!

It also has a Hawker Hunter on the forecourt!!!

Oh nice, Anglia 123E. I liked those - the 'fastback rotbox'. Nice wheels too, look like Minilites - I always liked those too.

I can’t be certain, but I think this might belong to a friend of my father.

1976, Melvin, afriend of ours brought an ex rally car, Anglia, bored out to1800, full roll cage, the works and ran it as his daily runner. It was insane compared to most other cars of the time.
