Have you the details of this one spotted lurking in front of a Herald at Anglesey Transport Museum?

I'll be at kitten register GHQ tomorrow after my comfy night in this 'ere Travelodge so I'll ask Brian, a.k.a. Mister kitten register, whether that car is known of.
Meanwhile, I shall allow myself a slight squawk of excitement at the sight of a Tahiti Blue kitten DL saloon with its original badging intact.

I saw these two older cars today in Battle:

Cool, which one won?




Damn! Brian and I got to talking about other stuff and the subject of the kitten never came up though Terry, that blue and white one is probably known to us, assuming that it was within a few miles of its last, known location.

Has recently started parking down the street from me..

It's a hover van!

Ooh! Commer, now I do like those vans. OK, so ultimately they may not handle like a Transit but they're lovely to look at and there's a decent amount of space inside. Best bit is that they seem to be cheap when they do come up for sale. Last of the great classic bargains, IMHO.

And today, in the rain, just behind Tynemouth Metro Station, I spotted this ancient Ford parked outside King's School so spun around, parked behind it and took a picture. Believe it or not, my wipers were on at the time but the rain was coming down so hard that there are still many raindrops to spoil the effect.

Well this has been sitting in the garage for over a year now, so time I added it:



Its awaiting the owner to find parts for a cylinder head replacement.

Also, this is the remains of a Matro Rancho. For reference the seats and engine/gearbox are upright, and from the seats back its on its side.

That looks like it has a fairly serious rust problem!
If your customer would like to donate his Aston to me I'm sure I could find it a head

Get in line Terry
