You don't see these often any more.

I like the Saviem/Isetta "road set".

Few cars I caught today - sorry for the quality, but I didn't have time (and more proper equipment):

Autobianchi A112 Abarth, prepared to sport events...:


... and, "parked" at the same street, Toyota MR-2 with TRD 2000GT body kit (and British plate):


Less interesting
Lancia Kappa Coupe:


Volvo 480:

EDIT: Imageshack lost the pics - dead links have been removed.

It didn't show up.


In the meantime, Avan Jogia of Victorious bought a mid-1960's Ford Falcon, and Ariana Grande has fallen hard for it.

That doesn't really have too much to do with this thread, but it's just something I though I'd bring up.

Ford Taurus, with the fog light (mandatory here) added under the bumper

The Porsche (that it was passing when the photo was taken) is a little more interesting, despite the Taurus not being sold their, no?

Is it a special model? I see much more often Porsche 911s than Ford Taurus :grin:

Parked on Saturday night in front of the hotel, where we slept at our yearly K 70-meeting:

There must be some US-Car-event this weekend, too (o.k., the long Whitsun/Pentecote/Pfingsten-weekend is must popular for any kind of car-events), because we've spotted other classic muscle-cars, too. So a 1968 Mercury Cougar.
And yesterday, on the way back, there was a really neat scenery on the A3 northbound to Köln (unfortunately I ws busy with driving, so no pic):
On the left lane there were a white Mercedes R107 -with the plate D-SL 350 H :wink: - and my K 70, passing a 1969 Ford Mustang and a 1973 Mustang Mach 1 (obviously orginals, both with Dutch plates) on the middle lane. All four classic cars were passing a late Zastava 1100 (plastic grille and bumpers, Dutch plates), which creeped on the right lane with 80 km/h

Sorry Lateef, but the car in front of all of us, I'm unable to name as "classic", too - a Scorpio II Sedan :tongue:

Morgan from today (though I guess the Peugeot 1007 next to it is rarer):

Sorry for the bad picture but it is somewhat rare to see contemporary American cars in the UK (even compared to other European countries).

Some photos I made one week ago at the "Gran Premio Giannino Marzotto" http://www.urquattro.it/gpgm2012.html organized by the Audi Sport Club of Italy (I was the co-driver of the white urquattro).

Next week I'll be here http://www.quattrolegende.com/index.php?bereich=nennliste (have a look at place 140 :ange: ). A lot of photos will come of course.

Electric Citroen

There may be a marketing exercise underway with loans to local authorities in Scotland. Orkney Isles Council seems to have one - also white - sitting at a charging point in the council car park for 3 days last week. For OIC to install a charging point means that the revolution is well under way .... at least until Citroen ask for their car back.

Correction - the OIC car is a Peugeot i0n, registration SB11CWP, with various bits of signwriting for a cleaner Orkney and the Council coat of arms on the back, so probably not connected (!) to Sandie's Citroen.

Friday, on the way to the superstore in the next town, we've seen annother electric car, an Opel Ampera in the traffic. I think, I haven't seen one before.

I was walking on the way to work from my lunch break today (2012-6-6) and came across with my own lighting interest: A service truck for lighting :tongue:
