I'd forgotten - last trip up to Hampshire followed a white H reg, 4 door diesel 205 (GRD?) for about twenty miles on the M4. Didn't overtake him as he was cruising at a comfortable indicated 80 - and with no smoke! Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigsty Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Yesterday I saw a dark green AC Frua outside Westminster Abbey. It was on a recovery lorry, which is plausible, but I prefer to think he was delivering it to some lucky bleeder. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bordfunker Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Saturday saw an immaculate Jaguar XK 120 trundling through Banbury. Sunday a Mk1 Golf and a Ford Sierra.

bentwaters81tfw Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 On a trailer today, a white SS Jaguar, and rolling chassis, with engine, scuttle, and interior of what looked to be a D Type Jaguar. The entire front and rear bodywork was missing, and it was LHD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back last summer the missus & I were in Alresford when they were moving a West Country class loco from the Watercress to visit the Great Dorset Steam Fair. Brilliant manouvering by the driver to get out of the station car park, down the narrow station approach road & then to negotiate the T junction at the end!

Whofan Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 On the way back from the Merry Hill centre near Dudley, a car with a number plate almost designed for members of Britmodeller - the plate read ** * BM I've deliberately not shown the full plate, to preserve the owner's privacy. So ladies and gents, if you want a Britmodeller number plate, you can get one ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
