I couldn't post these last week due to a Photobucket problem which apparently they are aware of and trying to fix. But I have managed to upload in a different way. So here are the photos of a certain lady's shopping trolley, parked at the supermarket.





Is that a Renault Safrane in the background. Possibly rarer than a Daytona
But nowhere near as exclusive or desirable!

A female driver of the Daytona? She must have had muscles on her arms and left leg not dissimilar to Arnie

Here maybe, not in France.

I see this MGB GT virtually every weekend at Sainsbury's whatever the weather.

I'm sure it must be a daily driver.

It was there again this afternoon and as always protectively parked away from other cars.

Bumped into a V8 the other day: quick!

A Peugeot 404 tipper loaded to the gills with scrap! No photo sadly.

Any ideas on this one? I thought it was a Panther J72 at first but from the rear it has a lot more Spridget bodywork. It's registered as a GMC so possibly a special on a light truck chassis (or a ringer! eek )

I have no idea what that is but my Mum was driving what might have been one of those occasionally as a wedding car. I had a ride in it too and still can't figure out what it was. That was logged as an unknown unknown on the log book.

It's a Durow, according to the Internet. Too big for a Kallista.
Don't think it would have been much use as a wedding car as the cockpit is pretty much MG Midget. Probably another of those faux 30 cars, such as the Beauford, which often use Midget or Mini doors.

Looking into it, might have been a Beauford. It had a big rear seat area and had a roof you could dismantle. IIRC the door glass lifted out.

No photo's I'm afraid but I regularly see a little Honda Insight on the A1 near Newcastle. First generation car with the spats on the rear wheels in red. Not sure if it qualifies as a classic, but it's quite cool.

Also spoted last week a BRG Mk 2 Jag on a trailer heading North on the A1 past Newcastle. Looked nice with wire wheels in a 'used' condition rather than mint.

Maybe I have been watching too much The Sweeney, but I was definitely expecting the next people out the bank to be wearing stocking masks and carrying shooters...

They've left the moll outside walking about to keep a look out by the look of it. The geezer on the right is checking her out too.

Well, they're parked on doible yellows, so they're definitely criminals...

It's a double six, right? The cops should just park their Austin 1300s at the Esso station and await the inevitable arrival of the crims 4 minutes into the chase....
