bentwaters81tfw Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 On my travels yesterday, the local garage that seems to handle classics had a cream Morgan, and a Maroon E Type FHC waiting for attention. Also a Mk 1 Mustang Fastback in a really bright blue on Sunday. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR2Don Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Lovely day today and just right for spotting these two. Seen at Perrywoods, Tiptree First, this beauty, and I mean beauty, the paintwork was immaculate. and just look at where it's been! and the back end. and then, when I was leaving, I spotted this - chalk and cheese, right! and, of course on a sunny day, the top was down! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malpaso Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I forgot it was the first of the local pubs classic car meets last night, so by the time I passed by to the IPMS meeting there was “only” a lovely yellow Delta Integrale HF and an immaculate pale blue Cortina mk 5 outside. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Spots over the weekend. Maroon TR6, Wolseley 16/60 Farina 2 x orange MGB GTs Orange and white Mk 1 Cortina On the A 11 a hot rod of some sort in a layby with a supercharged V8 poking out of it. Could not identify it as I was driving. Sounded nice though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windy37 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 I went to Bicester Scramble yesterday, Sunday . A huge choice on offer , unfortunately I felt this event is trying to be like Goodwood without the racing cars . I was most comfortable on the airfield where the best choice of cars were , the cars among the buildings being swamped by too many people . Limited ticket sales and a relaxed atmosphere was once the appeal of Bicester ; obviously more must now be available as the huge number of people there shows . Anyway here a few pictures , with everyday cars mixed with poster cars . Thanks for looking Gary 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Anzac weekend here & a heap of spots, probably some I've forgotten but unrecorded were a 1967 (approx) Chev Impala coupe, dark iridescent green & looking & sounding superb & Chev Corvette C3 in lemon yellow with shiny side pipes & a sound to go with them. A couple I stopped to record were firstly a rather neat 1980 Marina 1700 estate, it appeared to be very original or else very sympathetically restored, not sure why you'd bother though. & one we saw while having a picnic at a nearby beach area was this VW, not big in taste but huge in style to my eye.

Vince1159 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I had a Marina in the mid 80's and nothing would give me a better laugh than to meet someone standing by theirs (so i could look up and ask them if they'd seen a piano.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiny Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Sorry, no pictures as I was on the train going past it parked in a car park beside the track so wouldn't usually bother posting, but when was the last time any of you saw a Fiat Strada (Ritmo for those on the continent) out in the wild? This one was black and the twin headlamp version which I think (not an expert on them by any stretch of the imagination) means it was a later version. Also saw a 1980s BMW 6-series in someone's back garden (which is probably best described as a project) from the same train. Not to mentioin a matt black Rolls Royce Ghost (why???) in London, and a very nice shiny TVR S2 when I got back. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthewbacon Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Could it have been a Strada Abarth 130 @Spiny? I’ve seen a couple of articles about them recently featuring (different) black ones, and the Abarth is probably more likely to be a survivor than a cooking one, even if they were rarer in the first place… best, M. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit that that my first thought was whether it was an Abarth, but I didn't get enough of a look to be sure. For those in Hertfordshire, the car was in Cheshunt so keep your eyes peeled. For me, I will just have to remember to sit on that side of the train next time work takes me down that line and keep an eye out just in case. 5 minutes ago, keefr22 said: Yeh I know, nerd here recognised the rear slats....!! 🤣 Guilty as charged here too 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-muc Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 A Bristol 2 litre, a Morris 1100, an Austin-Healey 100/6, an MGB and a BSA and some others last sunday at the spring oldtimer meeting in Munich. I have made some pictures as usual and updated a gallery at the Revell community that I have started some years ago. So if you would like to pay a visit to Oldtimer, Youngtimer; Exoten - enjoy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul H Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 A Riley 21/2 Litre roadster (more usually known by the factory chassis coding as an RMC) in primrose yellow a few cars ahead of me on my drive home from work earlier this evening. Strange looking cars, as despite being a two seater \(or three seater if column change), they used the same wheelbase chassis as the RMB saloon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
