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:

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.
