Have You Seen Any Interesting Cars On The Road Lately?

An F-reg is an especially rare one too.

Is that because there was a model change in that year? We had a F-reg Fiesta when I was a kid (the older shape, mk2?). It had already started to blow blue smoke before 50,000 miles. They don’t make ‘em like they used to. Thankfully.

That’a right, the vast majority will be Mk2 on an F-reg, that’s very very early for a Mk3.
 
Bought two new Fiestas back in 1989, one for me and one for my wife, Mk1 reg no F554ECY and a Mk2 F555ECY.
 
Seen this a few times but never got a picture

Not an interesting car, but interesting parking!

I was passed by a fabulous Series 2A landrover on the M6 on Friday. It was an immaculate green example, wafting along keeping up with the 65-75mph traffic with no effort. Sadly I couldn’t get a photo.

I took the reg, WUD613, looked it up on the database, and it says “ROVER SERIES IIA SWB, January 1963, 4554cc, PETROL/GAS”. Sounds like quite a vehicle! Obviously an engine conversion but sounds unusual: does anyone know if 4554cc is a typical Rover V8 size?

I'm fairly certain there was a 4.6 litre version. Whether this was actually 4554cc, I'm not sure.
 
Maybe the car is not a very interesting car I saw today but I thought it was worth taking a pic as it was David Beckham that was driving it!

I was thinking who drives this things in central London but once I went past the car and saw David, I thought, well that answers my questions about who drives this cars :D

Before anyone asks, no it wasn't the Seat that he was driving 😆

 
I did see this too recently

Never seen one so wide before

 
Broke down on dual carriageway today so we towed it to local garage.
