A few spots from the weekend:

Spotted in a Knightsbridge carpark and, IMO, way out-cooling the many modern supercars deposited down there:



Lovely Fiat Dino on the A4 (bad pic, sorry):



Outside the pub in the Surrey hills:



Lastly, great little Ace Bristol filling up near Haslemere:

I have two Massey Ferguson tractors from 1965 (C reg), they are both in regular use, to describe their condition as 'rather tatty' would be an understatement!

Spotted this in Locksbottom this afternoon:


Porsche 356 Speedster replica by Zack's Motor Photos, on Flickr

The owner looked quite young. Fancy being young and rich enough to have a 356, even if it is a replica. There was also a green M.G.A Roadster in Keston.

I've driven a replica ( a 'good one', apparently) and it's not a car I'd give a thank-you for. I think in all honesty the nastiest thing I've ever driven. It made a TR6, not noted for being a particularly nice car to drive, feel like the last word in sophistication.

Genuine ones might be different of course.

As a TR6 owner - that's harsh?

No pics and old news now, but I spotted a Minor Million on the back of a recovery truck last weekend, near Cannock. Looked in decent nick on the outside. Anyone here?

Was it a weird lilac colour?

Or did I make that up?

It has been known.

Spotted this morning in Aldershot 'Military Town', Queens Avenue traffic lights...

Lovely looking White Sierra Cosworth, black wheels, and a big sticker on the offside rear window saying "cossietaff".

I've seen at least four Sierras lately, one (red, five door) on a 'J' plate looking well-kept, but seemingly in use as a 'daily'.

Also, yesterday, near Arborfield, I spotted an older lady driving an apparently immaculate white Rover 100/Metro.

No pics, sadly, as I was too busy driving/riding to whip the camera out.

Minor Millions are lilac.
How else would I have identified it from 4 cars back?
