Not a lot, but it is quality rather than quanity. in this case, I failed on both! first up, this immaculate Triumph Acclaim. Parked near my college. I walk past it every day, but it only turned up the other week. It looks original and is very tidy with no visable rust. The arches look just fine. Its a sweet motor. Next up is this rather smart mk4 Escort. It wasn't perfect, but was very nearly mint. Parked in Morrisons car park (@ Teesside park) on Saturday morning. In the same car park, on the same day, was this immaculate 1.3 MK3 escort 3 dr. it was gold, and had those lovely povo steels and everything. The Skoda is a bit of cheat, being a modern RS, but it's worth a mention anyway. As is this. Took this image last week. Its not the best quality, but you can just see, 5,000 miles on my bike milometer now. It had 2,300 on when I got it! ;D Enjoy

TILT! This picture makes me feel a bit sea-sick.... almost looks like the acclaim is grimly hanging on against gravity too.

went for a walk this morning - walking off all the christmas cake! - but anyway; I spotted this lonely exectutive coupe. just outside the village this re-sides. its gotta be one of the first on an F plate? Notice, the Quattro rear heated windscreen and the oh-so-90s mobile phone ariel on the rear window! Didnt look too be much wrong with it either!

Wheels are 15"ers and fake split rims with plastic bolts I have recently bought 2 sets for about £30 total, to be refurb'ed for the 90Q at some point. I'd like a quattro coupe - hopefully that's a 5-cyl, but if a V6 all the better for a 4.2 V8 conversion
