Just on the grounds of two places I've been today,

Hillman Minx 2 off

3 classic minis

Austin 1300GT

Several Series landrovers

Mark 3 cortina

Mark 2 cortina

Rover p2

2 door Range Rover classic

Siera XR4i

Various old tractors from DB cropmaster through ford


All in various states of repair from gleaming through to crumbling

One of the minis though which was rather the worse for wear and due to go to the scrapman found itself on its side and is now minus front subframe, engine and box

I saw one of these today :-



Just me,or anyone else into a classic hybrid ?

We have a classic car dealer in our village. They currently have rally spec mk1 Escort, and Rover P6 and a mk2 Jag (all mint) in thier showroom. Local cars I see almost daily:- 3 Morris Minors, 2 MGB GTs, Citroen 2CV, Fiat 500 and another 60's Fiat (I haven't identified the model), Vauxhall Chevette, Mk1 Escort Mexico, Pre war Austin (not sure what type), Austin Seven, Ford Pop V8 Hotrod, 80's Ford Mustang convertible, 2 Minis, VW split screen camper, mk1 Granada and Wolsley 1500. It's a great to see so many old cars being used. Whilst I particularly like Minors and MGs, I am always pleased to see the mk1 Granada. She's a bit battered and the paint is dull but I prefer a classic to look old.

I saw this at the local garage earlier.



Also our local bus operator, Renown was using some of its older step-entrance buses (single and double-deckers) today for some reason.

I saw a spotless P6 today being driven by a man who must of been a million years old, he looked lost i think he was looking for woolies the trimmers.(he was 10 meters away.!)
