I've often thought the BMW 6-Series of the later 1980's was especially attractive... and here's a nice M6, the high performance model.

And that cute little one is a "Spridget" isn't it... You're seeing an amazing selection of interesting cars, Mike.

The truth is, Doug, that when the car was heading toward me I thought it was a Sprite, but when it was heading off down the road I thought it looked like an MG Midget. I was confused. So, I posted the image without saying what it was because I didn't know. The other thing that made me wonder was that it was a left-hand-driver.

Thanks for pointing it out as a "Spridget", that's a new one on me!

All the best,
Mike

Here's something you don't see everyday: A Camaro with a luggage rack on the trunk lid.

Here's another one for Larry, a lifted and "eye-catching" (J80?) Land Cruiser.

Thanks for thinking about me! That one’s a bit too extreme for me at my age, though. I no longer need to go where that can go. There’s nothing there, then you have to turn around and go back.

With a 1932 Leica II and 11 o'clock Nickel Elmar: really Silver Shadow.

There were two of them in our road until recently; one was immaculate and the other was rusting away but I never got a decent shot of it...

These days they are dirt cheap but a couple of bills for work only RR can do could cost as much as 20 to 25 thousand pounds; said one of the owners (or perhaps his dad and he owned an engineering works and could sort out most things).

Regards, David
