Cars parked together, on streets and in car parks, ideally pre-1990 photographs. Denmark, May 1977 - of special interest here has to be the custom Amazon.  Central Library, Maidenhead - Is that yellow one a Vauxhall Ventora?  Honfleur, 1970-3  Somewhere in Americaland.  So much win in the outfit, right down to the Newcastle Brown carrier bag (on second look... it might not be a Newcy Brown bag).  Interesting stuff.  Dijon, 1983  Picardy Place, Edinburgh, 1975  Detmold, 1976  Bielefeld, 1976  Cambridge, Newmarket Road, 1983  Northwold Road & Fountayne Road, 1978  Southend  Probably shouldn't have parked there.  Princes Street, 1960s  Palast der Republik, DDR, 1977  High Street, Colchester  I could spend ages going through old photos like the above and trying to identify the cars in them. Dates and locations, where provided, are as per the photographs themselves where found online. |

To get a standard A40 this low, you'd have to dig a hole to put it in |

Central Library, Maidenhead - Is that yellow one a Vauxhall Ventora? That there is some sort of Victor, just a basic one. |

I'm going to suggest the Victor is a 2300SL, as the prevailing trend with Victors was always that the base model had body colour window frames and the deluxe larger engine models had bright window frames.

Based on the evidence of this picture, Fords in the eighties were more difficult to park straight in parking spaces than other cars. this one was on here a long time ago (clicky picky for big version) can't remember where and when it's made, guessing somewhere mid80s, probably in the UK... somewhere ;D |

I guess that shows how far their styling moved on in the 20years after that picture was taken ! lol |
