And the P6 seems everywhere in the old photos. far more then Triumph etc versions. Did they make that many? Did they last far longer then others??
That Esprit is fantastic - I was watching an early episode of Minder last night where Carl Howman's character drives a similar one in bright yellow, it looked the business.

White Mark V Cortina in front of the Fiat, white first gen Honda Accord in front of the Lotus.
My 1989 1.9 with my mate's Astra GTE behind on the road - April 1990
On the left, a Stag I had for about two years - 1986-88 ... bag o' ste - on the right - another one I saw locally ... now green.
My Uncle George with one of many Jags he owned in the 50s and early 60s ...
A '65 Mustang coupe - one a K plate - so imported in 1971/72. Taken at Biggin Hill, Kent in the early 70s.

I spy a Jag XK120, Triumph TR2 or TR3, possibly a Morgan, an early Spitfire, and a few Midgets amongst the regular motors of the day.

Couple of rare items in those pics, especially the Ford Taunus - which was a rare sight in the UK.
I spy a F-Type Victor as well in the 1st pic.
Sights that that were all too common on old bomb sites and waste ground in most towns back in the day..........he says feeling a little old

In the second picture, I like the way the proprietor has taken the tin snips to the back of his Thames van to convert it into the handy pick-up version...
