Let me recommend you to Johnny Nash.

Yay! "I can see Deirdre now Lorraine has gone", crackin' tune.

Rich, that big Diesel engined Nissan Laurel is causing me much excitement. What a lovely motor. Flux only need £90 to insure the thing for a year and it'll run fine on veggie/turps mix. Marvellous. Shame it's already away according to the vendor.
But the Granada Ghia, or rather its interior, is really doing things for me. OK, so the steering wheel is on the passenger side, it's in Idaho and it's already sold, but apart from these considerations, what's not to like?
Hyundai Pony, hmm, sooner have an early Stellar though arguably, only one of these two is aptly named.

If you know the UK registration number just send off the form with £25 to DVLA and they'll send you one provided the current registered owner doesn't object.

The corona deserves to be saved, the rest of them not so much.

Quite, however the Granada would make a great camper van, IMHO.
