Just as a follow-up to the previous post, we can now report that the AC shares a driveway with an immaculate Sunbeam Alpine.

While out on our bikes, junior also spotted (a couple of fields away from the road) what looks like a Moggy Minor on a trailer, behind a small industrial unit. Not one we've seen before, he's learning fast. While going for a nosey around the industrial area for a better look at this sighting, we found a very smart split-window VW pickup parked behind another building, blocked in by several moderns.

Pedant alert>
Would that be the early Humber based type (like a S/Talbot) or the later 1959 on Minx based sort?

Spotted the other day heading towards Blackwood from Fairview lights, a brown Allegro - when did you last see one on the road?

I have just seen a Ford Sierra. It looked a bit ratty but I can't remember the last time I saw one.

That reminds me, I saw a Sierra Sapphire Cosworth (or it looked like a Cosworth, anyway) yesterday, and an Austin Healey Sprite (Midget-style).

This morning! One of the volunteers at Blaenavon railway uses one as his daily driver.
Can I include my own Talbot Camelot camper?
When did you last see one?

To go with the lime green MGB I saw the other evening I passed a mustard colour MG Midget in Street on my way home tonight.

Passed 2 transporters following each other this morning, the first had a Mk1 Escort van on the back and the second a roughish looking blue Daimler Dart on the back.
