The trouble with driving is it's harder to take photographs of the stuff you see more often. So today I can only offer you one photograph of one of my spots. Very low mileage Rover Metro GTi. The owner was a nice bloke and we passed details on about RR (as I always do if I get a chance). The other spots were worthy of pics, but I didn't get any. The first was going up Bolsover hill towards the castle and it was a Mk1 Metro in silver with lots of lovely period accessories, I pipped and waved and they waved back, which made me happy. The second spot, a bit further down the road, was a very rare red Renault 7 saloon and it was a left hand drive. I wish I'd been able to get snaps of both cars, I really do!

^That says all you need to know about how cool Bristol cars are/were. No need for annoying marketing divisons, just an a4 printed sheet with some amazing performance stats.

Very nice Capri 3.0S in Tesco earlier, this is a well kept car. And a lovely Jag XJS I seen yesterday, had seen it about but never able to catch it before. Andy.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

Not a retro, but I like it: I've seen this at a couple of shows but never out on public roads. No idea how he drives it about on UK plates.

A couple from the Bromley trip today. This Midget had a very strange roof conversion but I prefer it to it's original roof, It hasn't been taxed since 2003. Looks like an Ashley hardtop. There were other relatively similar ones from other firms though.

Saw this down at the Southsea VW day end of last summer! Forgot pic was on phone. And this parked at the VW garage round the corner from me. No front pic could be taken - sorry!

Went for a little drive, no particular reason beyond the joy of driving. Spotted a well used little Renault Clio at Meadowhall. But earlier I'd spotted an International truck.

I've always been a bit undecided about these because I'm not sure I like the front end. This has helped me see the potential though.
