That's criminal, I am not a big fan of French cars but I love those.

East Grinstead. Unfortunately on googlemaps the yellow lorry was in exactly the wrong place so can only see these shots.

There was a guy in the village where I grew up who had two identical black Rover 90s. Everyone knew that he used to swap the plates. This allowed him to work on one while using the other. He did it for years.

Have you tried changing the photos date (if available)?

Example

You're right, I saw it but I was up against the clock. And badly parked.

I thought I recognised the road! Been driving along there two or three times a week these past few months to get into Willesden Euroterminal. The yellow Roadster hasn't moved for donkeys years.

If that's a series 1 it's worth saving for the dash alone!!

Spotted this pair of Nova kit cars down a side road in Fenny Stratford this morning.
There are various garages down the back of the buildings, but these were just abandoned by the road.

I know where those two Novas are. They have been there more than a year that I know of. I think they belong to the guys in the bodyshop that is in the background of this photo. They do some great work by the way.

Jesus, that's one of the last Cooper Sports. Good ones of those are still changing hands for £10k.

The front is slightly mangled .

There's a load of moderns here too in sorry states that slowly get repaired,so there may be hope.
