What classic vehicles have you seen?

Here's the place to chat about all things classic. Also includes a feedback forum where you can communicate directly with the editorial team - don't hold back, they'd love to know what they're doing right (or wrong of course!)

Saw the two-tone 12 running around in the early evening .. probably used to ferry people to and from restaurants.

There was also a cream one with dark red running boards ... you could hear that coming as the gearbox and/or diff whined like a good 'un!

Also saw a really nice MG TF 1500 on the north coast in Sao Vicente but the driver was in it and I wasn't sure he'd take kindly to being photographed without asking!

You'll disagree with this one being a classic, I expect, but how often do you really see Multiplas nowadays?

I'm going to hold off uploading any more for now. I've got stuff right back to June 2010 that I can cherry pick the classics out of for you. My description of classic is probably going to differ to yours, but I hope we have some common ground.

Imagine how boring the world would be if everyone agreed on everything though. :mrgreen:
I enjoy Practically because here, when we do tease or express a less than glowing opinion of the other person's ride, we tend not to get upset.

A couple from last weekend in Amsterdam.

Spotted from the canal tour boat:

And just down the road from the hotel:

It's a Grand Wagoneer, with a Lightweight Lardy in front of it.
