I don’t care either, but it’s worth the question to me. I ran my ‘66 on those bigger wheels and would change them if I still had the car - to some they look better ( not me now) but they do nothing for the ride. Wonder if it has PAS? I used to see a genuine one get trailered to the entrance to the annual club show and then driven in to the display area as cars entered in the concours had to be seen to be driven in … !

Came across something entirely new to me this morning in Arizona.....a well-used Toyota Crown Majesta.
RHD, Japanese domestic market only available in selected stores and more lux interior.

Pity he didn't put the rear plate on right.

I had to look that up as I'd never heard of it either. You got its best angle - it's a very frumpy old barge, very LS400 Lexus like which it overlapped with as it was Toyota's flagship in many markets

When was the last time you saw a rot free Chroma? This was parked amongst the Range Rovers and Mercs on Harley Street - left hand drive on UK plates.



That is awesome. Not rot free, but there is/was another white Croma around central London. ULEZ may have seen the end to that it though.

A couple of recent spots from me...


1985 Porsche 911 parked at the Polesden Lacey estate (National Trust) 3rd January.


Next-door-neighbours? Or someone borrowing space on next-door's driveway? Either way, you wait for one 1988 burgundy red Fiesta to come along, and you get a choice between an unmolested 1.1 Ghia or a more modified looking 1.1L(/Base?). Seen on a soggy bicycle ride in the BCP area on 6th January.

Bit of a cheat as it was at a classic car show this morning, but I do like these and haven’t seen one in the wild for a while…

st I intended to go this morning too, would’ve been good to see you. Last night’s festivities sapped my enthusiasm for getting up and riding, so I didn’t.

Was a good load of cars there today too. Have another look at the pics and see if you can spot my ulterior motive for going… biggrin
