Are modern oddities allowed?

Noteworthy van livery, parked on Glencairn Drive (?) near Titwood Park.

Er, TR5 surely? That makes it even worse :( :( :(
There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is generally adopted.

It's on a D-Plate which is 1966, so it's most probably a TR4A (manufactured 1965-68).

Yup. One's blue, t'other's red.

(Can you mangle the bonnets for a better comparison? :wink: )

Cute retro styling made by Nissan in the early nineties. Looks even better in pink! :wink:

I've been rummaging through the archives this morning and found this beauty from 1993...

Serious Brownie points for anyone who can find me one in Glasgow.
