Gorgeous Sceptre by colmar2010, on Flickr

Absolutely mint condition Humber Sceptre I spotted at Toddington Station, Gloucester, Sept 2009. It's still on the road today and just taxed for another year.

No picture unfortunately, but I was passed by a hard-top V12 'E'-type Jag this afternoon (in convoy with a Vauxhall VX220 Turbo ?! ) on the A9.

Sounded 'kin lovely it did!

Always a few interesting vehicles in Ashley Street, this wee Renault 4 has been there of late, and there's a classic R107 Mercedes SL there occasionally too.

Of all the things for me to see in a garage while on my postie round;

That probably made your day Dave!

On the old car front, I saw loads last weekend driving from Dumfries to Thornhill. Lots of Morris Minors, a Morris Minor pick-up truck thing and a lovely orange Saab 96. Obviously some sort of rally / run?

They are quite rare droschke and worth a few bob as well.

A good Citroën DS Décapotable starts at £25,000 and £30,000+ isn't unheard of. A brave driver indeed who parks that piece of sculptured 4-wheeled art in Queen St!

Check where the rear indicators are - just at the bottom of the rear soft-top pillars - too cool!

wow

not sure if I've posted these before, and their not exactly pictures of a car. This was in what used to be called Deutsch Demecratische Republik (DDR or East Germany) it's a motorcycle using an old soviet helicopter radial engine.

Absolutely stunning - I love the thought process of bikers.

Dare I say it brings a whole new meaning to the term 'chopper'!
