Some finds from my trip up North:
Fiat 500 C - described as a '53, but I think it's older as it doesn't have turn signals.
'59 BMW Isetta 300
'67 Morris Mini Van
'73 VW 1303 S
'97 Ford Taurus
'70 Volvo Amazon
Another '70 Volvo Amazon - seen a few days prior.
'84 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
Found not only one, but two - a few hundred kilometres away from each other at that:
'13 Suzuki Kizashi
'12 Suzuki Kizashi - I always liked these, starting with the cool name.
'53 Mercedes-Benz 300
'22 BYD Tang - far from a rare sight, but I think this is the first time I see a Chinese-sourced emergency vehicle here.
'24 BYD Dolphin - first time I see one; only a month old.
'71 Mercedes-Benz 280 S
'72 Mercedes-Benz 280 SEL
'91 Mercedes-Benz 200 E
'87 Mercedes-Benz 230 E
'86 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE - according to the owner, former embassy car of the Soviet Consulate in Stockholm.
'52 Mercedes-Benz 220 Cabriolet A
'40 BMW 335 Cabriolet
'40 DKW Standard
'67 Volvo 1800 S
'60 Jaguar XK 150
'57 MGA 1500
'65 Rambler American 440
'37 Chrysler Imperial - according to the owner only 4 are left in the world.
'39 DeSoto S-6
'53 Ford Customline
'48 Lincoln Continental
Speaking of movie cars, I also saw this MX-5 in traffic but I realised it too late to get a picture.

Just seen my first Ferrari Purosangue in Glasgow, 7 BAK plate and supplied by Graypaul in Edinburgh. And it looks hideous in the metal - a badly proportioned incoherent mess of random curves, slashes, "aerodynamic" splitters, jagged vents, grotesque wheels and dents. Its only merit was the colour - a very dark near-black crimson pearlescent. Intriguingly it was parked near a new-ish chauffeur-driven RR Ghost with BAK 1 plates - didn't look big enough for Phantom as listed on plate sites. Not sure what was going on - it was near the university which is in the midst of graduation ceremonies as one possibility.

@Lateef: if your trip to the North may have needed more time:
https://www.nrk.no/mr/disse-skapte-ko-pa-e39-1.16954113
As one of them seems to be from my district, I'm just asking around in my local classic car club, if someone knows them.

seen in the last days
1995-1996 Toyota Camry
1992-1993 Ford F-Series ( looked to big to be a F-150 ) which looked like it was cared for ( which is not usually what happens to what could have been a work truck )
Unknown year range Mitsubishi Delica camper (the narrow one on high heels.. ) . If it can help , it had quad square headlights, so i assume somewhere in the 80's
Of course, those things only come out while i'm driving, so no pics..

Yesterday, I went to the grocery store towards farm country, and saw a Daewoo Lanos hatch for sale at the edge of a farm. It was near the auto shop that had a maroon 1967 Chrysler 300 Coupe out front.
