I saw it being driven near Harrods in the summer, so it can't have been parked up for too longP.S. The City appears to have moved 4 miles to the left.
It was covered in a fair bit of dust, but I refer the right honourable Gentlemen to the first line of my OP

Sobering...
The only advantage of a LHD Sobering...
I might be being a bit of a wuss here but some of these pictures make Me want to !.
If ever I win the big one on the Euro millions I think I'll spend My time and money trying to save as many of these cars as possible!

The vehicle details for SIJ 3000 are:
Date of Liability 01 03 2011
So it's taxed and was at least recently MoT'ed? Date of Liability 01 03 2011
So this car has been there prior to 1998 which means a minimum of 13 years sat up.
My T4 has been off the road for two years, and says SORN not due on the DirectGov website as it's delared SORN each year. However some of the aging cars kept in my lockup that have been off the road since before the SORN came into force all say Unlicenced on the website.
Just to prove that you can find out almost anything these days, I posted a link to the Saab Sonett photo ( I used to own a 1968 version) on a Saab Forum and have discovered that it was owned by a well known Saab Engineer and Racer - the Company is called Motor Sport Services - his wife (I believe) posted this comment on her facebook page
Hi: This is the first time I have acutally used facebook. The car is a 74 Sonett bought at auction by a dealer friend. Pretty sad condition. We own it now and it most likely will be stripped for parts. I looked up pistonheads and didn't see it. Probably was in classified. Happy new year all.

This is part of the 'Memorial' at Oradour sur Glane but if they deteriorate at the rate they are, what's going to be there in the future?
One of the most sobering places I've ever been, nothing should be touched, even if in a few years it becomes just piles of rubble and unidentifiable bits of metal... williamp said:

And yes, it is an original. That photo is at least 30 years old, and the 250 GTO has now been rescued and restored.
There was a thread here a while back about an Aston Martin on someones drive, but I cant find the thread at the moment
Any more info on this? Story on the web? And yes, it is an original. That photo is at least 30 years old, and the 250 GTO has now been rescued and restored.

No, you won't find anything, other than it's not for sale and that several people have asked, what do you want to know? Gassing Station | Classic Cars and Yesterday's Heroes | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
