Finished outside of auction tho so wonder what it went for. Hopefully to someone who will restore.

Anyone spot this little 104 at pugfest?   Interestingly only 1/3 left on British roads at the moment!

I saw that and thought it was awesome! That would be quality with a massive engine with a turbo strapped to the side of it lol

Today i have seen a

Mk2 Golf Gti G reg Black
Ford Escort Cabriolet P reg Yellow
Jaguar XJ6 J reg
Renault 5 Red

The last escort cabby i saw was last year, and i think that might have been the last one left in sunderland.
the Renault 5s have gone now from sunderland, the ones i saw at croft were the 1st ones i saw for nearly 8 years!
The mk2 golfs still do pop up now and again, i tell you what is down the road from me is a Rover SD1 and its still on the road. When i asked a few years ago about it been rare, sight to see. The lads said they see plenty of them about, which sparked the conversation, some cars are rare sights in some parts of the uk.

I saw a MK3 fiesta XR2i it wasn't the RS1800 turbo, as I looked checked the bonnet out for the trusty vents,

How's this, spotted in our works car park today.



For those of you who know what it is, pat yourself on the back. For those who don't, it's a pukka 308 GTS as per Tom Selleck in Magnum PI.

I nearly tripped over the kerb when I saw it. Reminded me to dig this pic out from San Francisco:



Testarossa y000

Love the purple kink on black on the testa but a brave man or lady he or she is parking so close to a city block never mind the Audi 2 foot in front!
Right enough it's parked among some choice motors!

[ADV_93]

My mum and neighbours all had Triumph Acclaims...

[C2K]

Same guy had a 308gtb at work today. Eish!

Saw a Honda nsx on the way home, only ever seen about two.

[procta]

My mum and neighbours all had Triumph Acclaims...

rumour has it, there are less than 1000 of those left on the road!

[Matt]

I guess it's because we are abit behind, but I've actually seen a lot of old cars on the island. Mainly mk1 golfs, escorts, mk1 polos, seen a couple mk1 fiestas now (mate of mine owns one) there's even a few sierras about..

[bigcheez2k3]

Saw an F40 tonight

Also got a giggle when I was on Sloane Street near Knightsbridge. It's where you'd spot supercars usually. There was a couple things but nothing overly exciting then a modded Corsa VXR

[C2K]

Loving this. Saw a Lamborghini Countach on the road this morning when out cycling. Phone was in the saddle bag so no chance to shoot it.

[Toms306]

Saw a load of 'Panthers' at a car show today...hadn't even heard of them let alone seen one lately!
