I saw a black GSA with french plates on the A1 not that long ago driven by an old geezer. I tried to snap a pic but failed miserably. Haven't see any of the others on the road recently and the Minx...haven't seen one for years, even at a show. I have been tempted by the purchase of a stanza in recent times. They are probably an interesting alternative to a Bluebird and being smaller they probably go okay too. I think the SGX even came as a 1.8 which i'd imaging would go really well. Only Alfasud I have seen recently is a 4 door one sat rotting in a field near where I live  |

A mate had a Stanza 5 door for a couple of years 6 - 7 years back. Bought for £50 out of the paper and was his business vehicle for his tiling business until it failed its MOT big style. Did thousands of miles in it. Great car.

Don't think I've ever seen a JPS Capper! Saw a Stanza on the way oop north at Chrimbo, in silver, driven by an elderly couple. Haven't seen a Solara in donkeys. Same goes for the GS, and Sud. There is a rear engined Renner that lives round the corner from my parents - the bloke's had it years and years, and looks to be mint. I've never seen a Viceroy or a Minx Californian, ever! There's a Lada Riva that lives near me, and last summer we were visited by a Citroen Dyane-owning friend so was riding round in that a lot  |

I have no pictures, but there is an Alfasud in daily use round the corner from where I park my Audi in Preston  Its in daily use, and always makes me smile. |

Dyane - I'll be seeing a few of them over the weekend! 2CV run in Wales so watch out folks! S'pose that's cheating though but I have seen two in two weeks just out and about. Both orange!
That GS does look pretty good but it is underneath that they can really rot out. There was a Talbot Tagora on Ebay recently that my friend bid on. Lost out though as it went for silly money!

Dale It's not been taxed since '93 so sounds unlikely you'll be buying it back I'm afraid! |

I didnt know there was a white JPS `pri. There was a mint black one near me, last I heard it was going to be put up for sale, and its now gone, no MENSA membership required to work out what might have happended there, then. Solara, Dyane, Stanza, GS I havent seen for at least 10 years.
I know where there is an abandoned Viceroy if anyones interested. I see it 2 or 3 times a week. It has been there for a while, though.
