We've had the Elan and a MK2 & MK3 MX-5 so here's a MK1 and Elan:

I'm fairly sure that there isn't a Freelander in that pic.

Crap photos indeed, but looks like Stamford?

There was a mk2 VW Scirocco ahead of me in traffic in the way home tonight, with a new Mini and a Fiesta mk 6. Crawling past in the next lane. They made it look small, it's still a great looking car though. They missed a trick making the new Scirocco look like a squished Golf.

Blimey.

I don't like modern cars much, but thought that the F Type was quite a nice thing.

That pic makes it look like yet another lard ass.

After seeing the 'f' type next to the 'e' type in that photo - who would want to be seen anywhere near the 'f'? nevermind spend one's hard earned shekels to buy oneconfused
It looks like a home bodged & badly chopped tintopfrown

Did I see your Caterham outside the Lord B a few months back?
Probably - I live in Broad St but the garage is about 1/4 mile away, so it is often parked there when it needs washing or to load/unload after a trip.

I've been waiting to see a shot like that. The F-type really is a massive bloater.

F type is surprisingly large against moderns, I am sure its wider than an XK. Looks good in the flesh though but IMO white doesn't suit it

My usual post in support of the Multipla - you can fit three passengers and a full pallet in a Multipla, and it's less than 4 metres long.

A Golf is 4 metres 25 cm.
I know, I have one
I've been after one of these for ages!! Eventually gave up and got a Fiat 600 instead...but its not the same frown

Sticks.
