Walking down Bothwell Street at lunchtime and heard a wastegate popping and looked round to see what it was - a Ford Cargo truck!

For daft things you see, how about a Vauxhall Brava pick-up at yesterday's event....with an Alfa Romeo badge and triangle on the front! The things people do to get entry as a participant at an Italian Car Day!

Theres a faily loud nissan micra...either in Bo'ness or falkirk region. Its been painted fully in green camo, lowered and with slight camber, with a roof wrack.

Burn it with fire for whoever comes across it.
