Can't remember the last time I saw one of these "in the metal".

Very handsome coupe seen this lunchtime near Stoke.

I hadn't seen one for years either, then last Saturday morning I met a red "batmobile" version coming towards me.

There's a nice red Dolomite near me that I keep seeing. Seems to be in regular use, but well loved. I may have a picture somewhere, or possibly have uploaded it already and forgotten about it. I can't be bothered trawling to check, so if I turn the picture up on my memory card I'll submit it (again?)...

[Evangelion]

Back in '87 I had a girlfriend with a Dolomite 1850TC (or whatever it was called). I used to enjoy driving it because I'd had a 2.5PI a few years before and it reminded me of that.

I don't think I have any photos of it, but I'll keep digging.

There must be an interesting backstory here. Wealthy Swiss banker in the late 70's chooses a Daimler Sovereign over a default Mercedes 450SEL. Would have been a rare spot at the time.

Just seen a red Rover P6 estate heading north towards Tonbridge in Kent.
Great stuff - made me smile.

That BMW is a bit of a mish mash,I'm sure a P reg wouldn't have the early round rear lights......
Quite like some of the mods though.

Elan +2 on the M3 on Saturday

Lotus Elan +2 by Jim Pritchard, on Flickr

[Dr Interceptor]

That Elan was at Brooklands Sunday morning too.

[Evangelion]

Going south on the M1 Saturday morning, overtook a lovely old Bentley - late-'20s Le Mans-winning style, and he had the roof down which was more than I did. Couldn't take a photo as I was driving, but he got a big smile and thumbs-up as I went past in the Boxster.

Saw this beauty at Sainsbury's in Newcastle under Lyme this afternoon

[Dapster]

Couple of Hampstead regulars that I managed to get around to snapping this morning.

Newcastle under Lyme this morning where the position of the GB sticker is inflaming my OCD!
