One For Classic Car Fans.....

Isn't it funny - I was surprised it wasn't more, given that's the most desirable run-out model, allied to the general madness that accompanies Fords.

MOT history suggests it hasn't been on the road in three years, and in 2009 required structural welding. The price probably reflects that its not the best example of the breed.

The Tickford Turbo is the one to have ifmyoure minted and have no taste. My first job from school while waiting to join the Army was in a factory directly opposite Tickford so seen a few of these back in the day.

I remember 'em. Too much lipstick on that particular porcine, by far!

Vauxhall Senator 3.0 litre in Carlisle this evening. Surprising how small it looked these days.

Wednesday 20th
Driving home, from Wakefield, about an hour ago, I spotted a rather nice Volvo P1800 heading towards the city, on Black Road (A655), near Hell Lane & Horse Race End
Apologies, no photographs
It was approximately here, heading south-west; https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1669765

It was this colour (random photograph)

A Morgan lookalike (or is it a real one?) with a disabled badge on the High Street today.

Panther - 2.3 Vauxhall engine iirc?

Not something you see every day; an Aston Martin 2-4 from 1954. Not sure I've even seen one in the wild before, not up close at any rate. It was in utterly superb condition. Wow!

I think I can forgive the shonky parking as I'd likely not have seen it otherwise, and it wasn't in anyone's way

Not sure if this is an HB or HC Vauxhall Viva spotted in the Aviator hotel in Sywell this morning. Big classic show there this weekend.

A "Classic" Range Rover Vogue. I think those wheels might belong to a Discovery.

Surprising how small they seem compared to today's bloated tanks. Also, shockingly poor panel gaps on what was an upmarket and pricey motorcar.

And interesting that the fuel filler flap is on the 'wrong' side - !
