Unbelievably tidy VDP 4 litre R.

Wow, that looks almost brand new.

Triumph TR 4 or 5 and a 6.

Was it the carb fed TR250 that had that reflective bonnet stripe? Maybe a USA import?

No idea they're not my thing though I have had a couple of 2.5 pi's and a Dolomite!

Bonnet strip was only on the TR250 as supplied from the factory.

Yes and that looks like a LHD conversion ...

Except for the steering wheel on the right

Round the corner from our house. Glorious. And seemed small, compared to modern cars parked all around!

Very cool pillarless coupe

Now that is a good looking car!


Late model SE6A. Our GP had an earlier chrome bumper one when I was a kid which I remember fondly - sounded lovely and smelt of 4 star - must have had a leaky carb!

There’s a C reg Scimitar I see regularly, static in a garden … it’s crying out for me to rescue but circumstances atm mean it’s an impossibility.

I've seen this one driving around a few times over the last couple of years, nice to see it parked up and get a shot.

I'm in love woth the Grand Palais. I've had a couple of conversations with Gérard Godfroy, but it's a lot of money for a trinket...

In the car park beneath stepdaughter #1's apartment in Salford Quays.



Where the vast majority of owners and tenants can't be seen in anything more antiquated than three years old, it was refreshing to see a fine example of IDGAF.

Love those - especially the estate. My dad had a pov spec saloon back in the day.

I was going to put it in the Classics Dwarfed By Moderns thread but because they aren't in line I feared an onslaught of, "Small, far away."

Spotted in Brum on Friday, absolutely gorgeous. 4l Rover V8, SDI gearbox and MG GT rear axle. (This pic found on the web, I was following it in traffic so couldn't grab a pic)

Very nice, I bet it sounds rather good too.

Some of the BMW's I mentioned further up the thread.
