Totally agree. I have wanted an Atom for as long as they have existed, but would not go for the V8.

FWIW I reckon the 2.0L 245 bhp NA K20Z4 was peak Atom, albeit the chassis has improved since that time.

Saw a few nice ones while out and about today.

Aston Martin DB7.

It might seem odd but I'd prefer this lovely MG over the Aston. I might actually be able to buy, run and maintain the thing. It had clearly been given a top class restoration.

I also met a Sunbeam Stiletto but I was driving at the time so couldn't photograph it.

I used to have a 1966 Stiletto swapped out for a bed mattress

We’re in London for the weekend and have already spotted two retro beauties.

A Bristol 411 (apologies for the terrible quality)

And a rather nice early two door Range Rover.

Probably a 'retro-rebuild'
I'd love one!!

EDIT @ 13:31
For example; I'd be extremely surprised if the original bill was under £110,000

A brace of Bentleys in the High Street yesterday. A 4½ litre, and a 6½ litre with a fabric body.

Nice to see a Polo, rather than the seemingly ubiquitous Golf

Morris 8. There must be a special occasion of some kind.

Love the Air conditioning System it uses.

Is that a "blower" on the second one? If so, it's a very exotic machine indeed.

Some GPO Morris 1000 vans had the same system

Yes, I thought that also - what I think is the belt seems visible low down to the front.

No blower. It has a rally plate mounted. I had to look twice.

I missed photographing an elderly Mustang, which rattled over a road hump like an old truck, and a late Citroen DS. But I got this one, whatever it is. It burbled in a V8 kind of fashion.
