Today I saw a classic and took a pic thread! Part 2

power pants

that e34 looks like its sitting strange at the back. maybe its just the pic

alloys and wheels do nothing for it either

Mississippi.

Just clearing some photos off the phone from a few years ago.

looks like the landrover was not positioned properly on the trailer, not enough weight on the draw bar and on the back of the xc90.

he could be in a bit of bother if he has no trailer licence, probably grossing 4-4.5 ton

Good job you didn't take a pic otherwise we would have had a double post from two different posters !!

I have used that type of ifor Williams trailer before, they are not designed for taking a jeep on them, the floor is too high from the ground, as the wheels are under neath and are top heavy with a jeep on it. A brian james clubman type trailer are more suitable.

But to answer your question if you look at the picture in the link showing the front of the trailer you will see that the front trailer butt/board was never removed which would keep the landrover back , if it wasn't there the landrover could be another foot closer to drawbar which would put more weight on the back axle of the xc90, making it less likely to go all over the road

I must say I'm quite disappointed with Dublin, spent whole day here in city centre and driving in suburbs and saw only a red 2 door E30 (crawling in opposite direction coming towards me somewhere in city centre - seeing it sooner I would open my window and yell something like "your car, my car... brothers!!!" - chrome around the windows so defo not a twin cam)

That's the one. It's like all of those wedge shaped cars Countach/Esprit/Pantera when we had them as posters on the wall it was the later skirted and winged ones but now it's the purer early ones we covet

Malta is a great placed for spotting old / classic cars...I was amazed at the amount of older cars (and trucks) still in everyday use when I visited there in 2012:)

Dont forget to visit the 'Malta Classic Car Collection' museum if you get a chance ...well worth a visit!:)

Another in Malta on Sunday.
