I like the colour scheme, I wonder if mine is still around BRE 93J. I loved that car, shame things kept dropping off.

I don't know what it is about Islington, but I seem only to be spotting old Citroens recently! Here's a late model Light 15. Right hand drive and the sticky-out boot means it's a '53 or later model apparently.

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this one? Anyway this is for a most interesting old boy I met in Cornwall recently who would like to know what this car is. Turn of century and this was the first car in Truro apparently and belonged to the Bishop. Thanks in advance.

I would recommend the Period Classics Picture Thread for that. Anyhow, I would think it dates from c.1908-1916, give or take a few years either side. It also looks a bit American.

Apologies, BRE 92J. It acquired a new number when I sold it.

I'd expect nothing less in Primrose Hill. You'll occasionally see my Frogeye outside the fishmongers. I do realise how naff that sounds!
sounds more like a euphemism.
laugh Indeed!

Yes, always some nice stuff round there. Last summer I was enjoying a pint outside the Princess of Wales when the Jacques Swaters Ferrari 166 barchetta came bumbling past. Can't really beat that.....
Are you local ? The only classic I see with regularity is a nice green Alfa Spider which looking at the wheels and the slightly lower stance I would guess has been to Alfaholics at some stage. There's also a fairly tatty M535i parked around the corner from me.

returned to take a better shot of these two, both waiting to be worked on, so a spot more than an abandon

I don't live in Primrose Hill but I'm not too far away. I know the Alfa you mention. Very nice it is too. I find that if you stay in one spot long enough (I.e. Supping a beer outside the pub!) the interesting stuff tends to come to you.

The lazy man's way of spotting... Cheers.

Disabled and out in the worst weather anyone can remember.* It has to be the daily driver I reckon.

*Brief sunny respite.
