Christmas Day - spotted a green Ford Prefect/Popular/Anglia (100E style) going past my parent's house, soon after I arrived.

There was a black 2 door minor 1000 driving down the B5030 earlier. It looked very shiny and loved. It made me feel a bit self conscious about the state mine is in :S

A plate ford crapi turning in to the Uttoxeter McDonalds earlier. I am always surprised by the number of classics that are out and about in the winter.

There are quite a few about today- maybe it's because a lot of people are off work for the week. I was behind a silver E Type with a hardtop for a while today, and saw the same car again later, and also spotted a damask red (BL's best 70's shade by far) Midget as well- I appear to be the only idiot driving with the hood down today however!

This week I have seen not one but two Austin Maxi's in Bury one in brown and the second in a fetching shade of orange.
Also spotted a nice blue E-type parked up in my local tesco,there is a second E-type in Bury also in blue which is a lot cleaner.
Then there is a truck similar to the one above in Ramsbottom apologies I'm not well up on U.S.metal.
It's nice to see classics out and about.
