Spotted an E-class estate.

I don't think much of his aftermarket DAB aerial. I'd probably just listen to a CD.

I'm pretty certain that without exception, the drivers of all that exotica (although obviously pleased with their cars) were secretly hankering after that ultimate rarity, the Smart ForFour Black Series Night Edition Premium Plus 125 Navi by Brabus.

It was drawing quite the crowd. It’s not nice to see grown adults green with envy, but a Night Pack 125 is something to behold.

B&Q?

Lidl. That middle aisle has something for everyone. Now I hope they haven’t sold out of welding masks.

It’s subtle. I hadn’t noticed until you had mentioned it. You must have an eye for detail.

Well it's elementary dear BD - i have to live up to my surname of Holmes!

I’m told these are a bit spesh.

Back then you got a plate dated to the year the vehicle was registered or re registered, not related to year of manufacture. I had a 50's US car which had a T plate (1979). The system was changed at some point so that you get an age related reg now.

Exactly.

And, that'll be ex-UK military, not rural estate.

Im not normally a fan of big spoilers (on road cars at least) but i do like those dorsal fins. I wonder how long before we see the first Astra with a bolt on fin!

This needs an edit. You left out the 'AMG' and 'Powered'. Important, very, those words are.

You’d need balls of steel to drive that about today. Clearly the owner/driver is minted.

Sorry ..
( And there was me thinking that the Pininfarina styling would be right up your street )

"Old residents:"

Jensen Healey. Mid-70's, in BRG

William Towns and Donald Healey designed for Jensen Motors who took a punt on a new Lotus engine.

Surprisingly cheap these days, if you can find one. No one knows what they are.
