i am one of those that hate to see car meets and scrap yard photos entered into this spotted thread along with photos taken a mile away. if you come across a great scrap yard why not make a thread on that yard, where others could add there favorite yard to it. One of my pet hates on this thread, in my humble opinion this thread is for those random times you come across a retro being used in everyday life, or languishing on someones drive etc...car shows and scrap yards should have their own thread. By all means post up one pic from the show here and have a link to the main thread but to post 20 or so pics of immaculate trailer queens kinda takes the fun out of the thread ... P.S. i really hate the unneeded use of full quotes, when a few words or just a single picture is all it needs. That...That right there is my ultimate hate, where you get a reply thats quoted the orig pic or pics, then a reply to that, that has posted the orig pics plus the quoted pics and so on and so on..... just edit it ok? ...it's simple to do... of course, this is all probably just sour grapes as despite being on here for years, and despite nearly always bombing around in some old tat or other, I don't think I have ever seen one of my cars posted in here. After all the hard work i put in driving knackered old heaps up and down the A1, desperately hoping to appear in these hallowed posts, and not one shred of recognition for my efforts

I wonder how long before this gets towed.... I wonder what the story is. It would be criminal if that didn’t get resurrected.

Here are a few of my recent spots. First is from a recovery yard so must have suffered a mechanical issue; The next was fully in the wild and looks well loved; This wee polo was seen in Wolfsburg Germany; And down a back street in Liverpool was this Quantum; Liverpool 22 by Dave Campbell, on Flickr Dave

Upon my recent wanderings I found this boxy Mercedes Motorhome on a driveway in Clacton... ...and this good-looking 90s Mini Cooper in Martlesham.

Drove to Milton Keynes on Sunday to collect a new interior for my Golf. Turned up at the guys house and this greeted me. Haven't seen one in years!

Mr Kipling would be proud of these two french fancies I spotted in Charing:- Extra Frenchiness added by my Renault on the end there.

I thought this Toyota space cruiser looked cool rolling around the bend of Porthmeor Hill in Saint Ives. Sadly the wall blocked my view by the time I’d got the phone out.

brave on 2 fronts...step enough coming down porthmeor and taking an old toyota that close to the sea. mind you the old space cruiser is better looking than half the tat in the tate!
