One For Classic Car Fans.....

At Coningsby (BBMF Museum) yesterday. Too close to the hedge to get a frontal shot

80's Maser, badly parked. It's owner always parks over 2 spaces, maybe wary of being "doored"

.. or maybe he's a big lad so needs the extra space to get those big doors open wide enough to get in and out

I might go to this on Saturday, however the entry fee has certainly gone up!

The last time l attended, l think it was £2

It’s alongside the A628, on its Pontefract-Barnsley section
Plus not far off the A638 (Wakefield - Doncaster road), or the A1, at Darrington, Barnsdale Bar, or ‘Red House’
The last junction intersecting the A638

Sometimes you get very interesting vehicles, like this FAUN

This is cool!
I used to have a Chevette*, but the Kadett was nicer (barring the Chevette 2300HS)
It's the Rover engine, not the Ford V8, of the same capacity

* my father had a (mk 1)Cavalier, when I was learning to drive, but someone down the avenue had an Ascona, which l always preferred the shape of

Blydenstein did a very nice Chevette upgrade that really perked up the cars character. Vauxhall looked at dropping the cam-in-head 1.6 unit from the RWD cavalier in, but for whatever reason never did. Shame.

Spotted today at the seaside. V12

Not seen this BX for a while but still think it's worth a picture

 

[Cletus Van Damme]

Rough looking Calibra in Wigton, Cumbria. Also saw a rougher white 1989 Fiat Uno nearby whilst I was driving.

 

[biggs682]

A selection of Corvette's at Sywell aerodrome this morning and a few more that I couldn't get to.

And then a bit later on a Lamborghini Huracan

 

[Proto]

My mate Steve chopped in his Aston Martin Vanquish and his mint Sunbeam Rapier H120 and bought this ........

Bit of a Jaguar theme today

First up is what I think is the nicest looking XJ

And this comes up as a Mitsuoka and has a slightly jag esque look about it

 

[Bonefish Blues]

I think a visit to Specsavers is usually recommended in these circumstances

They do others too...

I know very little about cars but I will occasionally spot something a bit unusual when out on the bike. I couldn't get a photo as I was cycling past but I saw a guy at the weekend driving what I am 99% certain was a Porsche 356a convertible in black which I assume is a rather expensive classic car these days.

Yes it is - there's also a very very good modern replica made by Chesil.

LS1 'Low-Light' Minor

On the road, from about the 14:50 point
It accelerates well, through the gears!
