Once common cars that you don't see anymore

[K55]

Never common to be fair but spotted a W8 Passat estate in Bangor.

Was checking if the new memory card in the dash cam fixed it and remembered I'd spotted this. They've gone from being every where to only seeing the odd one. It's really rare to see one that looks clean.

Dad was driving through Irvinestown one day in the GTI-6 and there was some road works going on. Whilst in the traffic one of the road workers spotted it and was blabbing on about he’d like to buy it from dad. When he heard she wasn’t a HDaye he lost interest.

No pic but saw a 106 on r plates with a cherry bomb style back box. I was instantly transported back 20 years

I saw a 3 door C4 on an R plate this morning. There's definitely fewer of those on the roads.

Hadn't seen one in a while and now there's about 3 or 4 of them round here regularly.

I did a bit of work for Prentice Renault out of Sprucefield 20 odd years ago as these came out and always fancied one. Have seen this one about a few times but haven't managed to get a picture until today!

Guy down the street had one of those when I was growing up, I used to lust after it. Looking at that photo, I am wondering why.

Dealt with that couple a few times, the husband actually had another 2 of them, he lived with his mum up in the Wandsworths. He was a white chap, wife was a black girl, they had a very turbulent relationship, he left her and the blue car was his that he wouldn't take, she stoved the rear window in and it just lay there. It was actually an A610.
