Have You Seen Any Interesting Cars On The Road Lately?

[Bobby Dazzler]

I have just seen a 67 plate coupe of some kind, with a MB badge on, low and fat. It had the same style indicators as the Audis that don't flash but pulse.

How depressing.

For a change... not a Pimlico Plumbers van:

Didn't get a picture, but saw an immaculate Alfasud Ti in Winchester earlier today. Years since I saw one of those on the road.

I had a 1978 (pre-facelift) Alfasud 1.3 ti in mustard yellow... what a car

Sadly I totalled it.

You mean you left it out in the rain ?

My mate has just been given a 1.3ti - by coincidence one that he serviced when it was nearly new. A couple of tiny rust spots but that's all. How it's survived I don't know.Probably worth a bob or two now.

My mate has an A plate ti. It is a time warp car with even the smell of Kouros still prevalent!!

It’s sits in the garage with his Integrale Evo 2 And and Alfa RZ.

Recently bumped into a chap about half way down France with a fantastic 1931 Alvis. He regularly drives it to and from the UK.

There is a Kouros and Mercedes link:


But I won the Championship that year (1987) with this British one....

The KUOROS livery is particularly good looking.

Yeah, yeah.... but does it smell good?
I still remember the smell of Silk Cut and having to be dressed up like a fag packet.
Whoever thought Papal Purple was a good colour for trousers....

Saw this the other day in my local supermarket:

Nice (apart from the colour)

Love that. Mrs D was less impressed when I tried to sneak one (same but grey) past her beady eye.

Driving home from work tonight, I got cut up on a roundabout by an MG Metro! Thought those had all rusted away years ago. I looked reasonably tidy as well..

Of course, I destroyed the cheeky git on the next bit of dual carriageway. Tidy or not, a wheezy A-series doesn't cut much ice these days.

Cheers,

The turbo ones were quite nippy ... almost 100 bhp in a small & light car. But no match for anything modern of course.

Who says current parking spaces are too small?
