Pictures of course are the best, but post up your 74 sightings even if you dont manage to capture an image and post it to the thread.
I saw a 74 reg in my rear view mirror on Saturday but the memory card was out of my dashcam! Not sure what it was. May have been a Citroen of some kind. Maybe.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

It is economic madness to buy a new car, but thanks to the hefty chunk of depreciation payers who have taken the plunge and maybe don't realise its built into their £x/month leasing and PCP deals. Their new cars filter down
into the nearly new market, then the used market, then the bargain basement market, then the scrap value market. The mighty all fall through the process Bentleys and Rollers, Jaguars, Mercedes and BMW crops of which fetch less than humble Fiat 500's at every classic auction you care to peruse in 2024.

White 2 - BMW (not sure what this is, the door handles on the swage line make it look like an iX3, but DVLA says it's hybrid...)

White 3 - Toyota something or other - this may be a re-post of one I saw earlier but didn't get a pic of.

This site is pretty good for coming up with detailed model/make if you manage to capture the reg number. DVLA published info doesn't always show this.
