What thread to put it in? This had to inspire a "go back and get the camera" shutter click or two. It's outstanding.

: Ford Fiesta First Generation

I will be splattering some other threads with other images.

£10k would buy only a very minor proportion of these two lots I'm afraid, but a pair of interesting vehicles at the upcoming Bonhams Sale this Sunday.

As well as the special interest James mentioned here for lot number 3

viewtopic.php?p=751941#p751941

At Bonhams Goodwood Members Sale this Sunday 16th April, lot number 32 is this prototype from Triumph, which made it to a real life car, but believed to be the only survivor of the three that were made.

Barely a hundred yards further along the road from where I spotted the the white 2CV earlier, this appeared

Much more to my liking

I had one of those, Dolomite Sprint, for a short time. Loved it.

BRG too.

During a stroll around town today - to a part I'd not visited recently...

This is a candidate for the favourite colours thread too... I just love that orange

Nice spot Jim, would have definitely got a shutter click from me too

Matthewsons at this weekend's sale are putting up a SAAB 96 for auction. Its a special one, the subject of one of their spin off TV programmes where the Bangers and Cash production team (not the Mathewsons) buy a car at the auction and get it restored, then put it back through the auction.

Here is their video about it..up for sale this weekend

Two Spots today both Red.

A gleaming red Citroen Traction Avant as an oncoming vehicle, and uncameregeteroutable when driving. This other red one was stationary.

Wiki tells us it was the first "car" to achieve 3L/100 kms roughly 94 miles/imp gallon.

: Its an Isetta of some marque or other

Should have inspected those bricks, see if they had the brickworks name stamped on them.
