For me, that's one of those "cars you didn't know they made". Kind of a slightly larger Scirocco.

That takes me back. I went there 20-odd years ago to look at an Oldsmobile Cutlass Coupe, parked on the same spot as the Cortina. Sadly, I lost my nerve...

The last three are either Amsterdam or Bruges - not sure what any of them are though!

Unlikely though it seems, I think this may be a Renault. The Renault factory in Belgium (now long gone) built a number of models in collaboration with American Motors (Rambler).

Tidy looking K10 Micra for sale, looked very clean - £395. Another model where the later ones that followed were nowhere near as good IMO ....

I never drove a K10 model, but the only new car we've ever bought was a 1994 16v Sunderland Micra.

Kept it for 9 years & 103k miles. Sold with original clutch, exhaust, battery. Only item replaced outside routine servicing was an air mass sensor (£95 from a scrapyard). A cheap and cheerful car, utterly reliable.

The most recent iterations have been completely nondescript imho. Too large and too complex.

Spotted an Aston Martin in Lingfield on Sunday, I'm sure it was this one. I also saw a 1977 Ford LTD Country Squire.

I'm fairly certain this is.





In the station car park in Chippenham as a daily as far as I could see.

Oooh, I haven't seen that there before. I've seen a few Maseratis, Astons and 911 GT3s, but not that.

At a local car show today, this nice Series III was parked just outside and didn't fancy joining in, so I'll call that a spot.


Then a little bit later I saw this lovely sleeper 300E.

Saw this parked in the yard of some very untidy railway arches in SE London.
