Off Topic - Is there an interesting old cars thread? I saw a car that was interesting but irredeemably uncool.

No, put it in here. Some of us have quite a broad understanding of 'classic'.

Bit of a backlog - haven't posted anythings for a few weeks....

Very fruity sounding Stag







Lovely metal dash 1302





560SEC Wideboy with genuine 3 piece AMG Aero colour coded wheels





Some props being used on a film set around the corner









This is genuinely "spotted" and not "left to die". It gets an annual airing for an MOT and a few hundred miles run around.

It was at The Swan in Streatley.

It looks like a wheelbarrow with those tail pipes.

And as for the wire wheels...

Nipped to Tesco (run out of dog fud) and this rather lovely Viva HB was in the car park. Must be pretty rare nowadays even back in the day they seemed to disappear pretty quickly when the HC came out.

This was a couple of weeks ago but I was stuck in a traffic jam of Capris, whilst in my Capri!





Ok I was going to a Capri event, so not really a surprise, quite cool though.
