Nice Pac Blue spotted at one of those classic car hire places just off Old Street roundabout.

Interesting display stand as well!

Very nice condition BRG N/A (J plate) in the car park at Bristol Classic car show (which ain't in bristol :roll: )

made the laquer peel on mine seem even worse!

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

A nice looking Norfolk Mustard SE in Chapel St car park in Aberdeen. Don't think I've seen a yellow one around Aberdeen (apart from BigErch's) since WestonBen left for the Middle East. Wonder who it is.

Ah! So that's you with the NMY Elan up here! A few friends have said that they've seen one about in Newcastle. :D

A "Dark Blue" M100 was spotted on Grey St yesterday by somebody on Pistonheads.

Kia Elan for sale in Gernsheim (about 50km from Frankfurt)

Sorry, not the best pic, but looks like a nice car. If I wasn't moving house I would be really interested.
