Theres not a great deal round here, bit boring really
Highlights are my mates Golf G60, a satin black morris minor, couple of minis, really ratty MGB, nice mexican beetle in town, and of course my mk1 polo!
When i was still at school, a guy round the corner had a string of mk2 mexicos

Not much left around here really. There's my neighbour's absolutely knackered MGB and there's a seriously Weber'd B that flies about, but that's pretty much all I see around here these days.

Loads and loads and LOADS of aircooled Dubs! The ACME bare-metalled Splitty bus is coming out to play again now the weather's cheered up. ^ This one I think... There's a meaty sounding Mk3 Capri which I'm sure has a V8 under the lid. This puppy lives locally, although now it's purple metal-flake. Used to be owned by fellow RRer 500tops. I snapped this at RTTS 04 (Was my favourite car there I reckon) Lots of Mk2 Golfs doing the rounds. Tonycocacolas old orange VW fastback now lives here although I haven't seen it this year. There's a beautiful Vauxhall Victor lowrider which I MUST photograph, although that's been in hiding too. My mates Subaru Brat pick-up... ...that's all I can think of for now...

Oh, and I keep seeing a Datsun 300C Estate going around driven by an elderly pair. A Morris Ital half in grey primer, also driven by an old boy. A sweet looking Mk1 Capri. My mates evil looking Volvo Amazon Estate "Voodoo" in satin black - slammed to within an inch of its life... literally, there's half an inch of ground clearance under the sills

tracking might need adjustment..... In my 'hood' there's a fruity mg magnette, a FC Victor (with a v8!), three Vitesses and a couple of Triumph 2000's. There's a mint splitty bus round the corner too! Plus more Crusty Trucks tm than you can shake a muddy stick at!

Off the top of my head: My two Golfs Brothers '67 Bug My Dad's collection of Bay Campers and Splitty Brother in law's 60's MG Midget Couple of old 3 and 5-series Beemers MGB DeTomaso Pantera (!) that lives near Darren Girlfriend's brothers Legacy Twin Turbo Oh yeah, my Dad knows a local guy with a 911, few Jags and other classics and a Ford RS200! Probably a few more that I can't think of now. I really ought to go out for a walk with the camera!

Does it actually have an exhaust? ;D Not much interesting tat around where I live. Off the top of my head, there's: Toyota Starlet 3door - slightly tatty but pretty sure it's a rwd one '70s Bristol - only seen it from a distance Moggy 1000 saloon - ditto '60s Rolls Corniche convertable - looks in perfect condition, but filthy from being parked in the street

A few spring to mind round here.......
Red Herald 13/60 convertible round the corner. White Volvo Amazon. Volvo 262 Volvo 242 Couple of dead Minors in a drive. P1800 Volvo been down the road a while but now gone. Paint shop a the end of the road have an 02 BMW and a similar era beetle outside. Occasionally spot a Lotus 11 owned by an optician round the corner. A-H Sprite been on a drive for years. Humber Imperial driven by probably its original female owner.
