Wow, the racing one was rare even when new! Most of them ended up in rallying it seems. One in good condition now would be worth a little bit.

Noticed a wee blue basic spec mk4 escort being used as a daily driver. Local reg on it too, will get a picture of it sometime.

Red J reg AX GT today. Absolutely out of the box! Wasn't able to get a photo but haven't saw one of those in years never mind a standard one. :cool:

Actually after a quick Google I think I've found it!!

I see it all the time in dargan I think the guy works there. Doesn't look the cleanest to be honest but not bad considering how much they can rot. I sometimes think about leaving a note showing interest if he were selling but I honestly can't imagine me driving or doing anything with it.

Seen another rare sight on our roads this morning......An Alfa 146....no not the 147 although even they have nearly all disappeared but a 146. Seems to be used as a daily as well.

He probably has a dozen already :innocent:

Italy would come to a complete stop without the Uno! There's the 4wd raised Panda too, the Italian equivalent of a Defender :cool:

Seen a Mazda 323f today. The one with the pop up lights. Looked really clean.
Also spotted a place in Newtownards with a nova, Williams Clio and I think a Carlton in the garden. Anyone on here?
