Difficult to see the size, but the underpinnings make me think a Mini base. |
I think that's a good guess. OK it's not the best photo; but looking at it for a minute whatever the vehicle is it looks to me as though it has a touch of the nose-down attitude typical of a Mini with the front suspension somewhat past its best. Such a common sight when I started driving but on the odd occasions I see one these days they tend to be in better shape. |

Saw an Opel Shoveit in remarkable condition yesterday. Not sure if it was light blue or grey, but it seemed pretty rust free as it went past. |

HAHah!
GVs are not my favourite rot boxes...but they do a job, and I suppose that's a blessing? _________________ Dellow Mk2, 1951 built, reg 1952.

Is it green? I saw a green 7 in Nantwich this afternoon, don't know enough to know whether it's a Ruby or not. |
