That Renault 4 on Fitzwilliam Street / Square - I've seen him painting that with Dulux Vinyl Matt and a roller!

It was a preety sweet mix of the two elements alright. A stunning part of the world and the Delta wasnt too shabby either hahaha The feature should be live on CompleteCar at some stage in the next month so keep the eyes peeled

I didn't actually take a pic but I hope it's ok to put this here.
Someone linked to it on a discussion about roads on The Journal.
It looks like a very nice custom job on a rare two door Triumph Toledo in Glounthane in Cork.

Somewhere in Kentucky there is a trailer park being deprived of a camaro

Mustangs seem to be more common in trailer parks in Kentucky than F body cars from GM.









Found some newer F bodies though:







And the 3rd gen Camaro in proper trailer park livery:




Also this G body and a Cadillac:

I saw this parked outside a restaurant a few months ago. After these two pics I was about to take one from the front but noticed the driver reclined and waking up. I gave him a nod and a thumbs up and stayed going .

I took these in a petrol station. Again, I wasn't able to get a third photo. I'd rather make excuses and conversation with the Mercedes driver than the multiple Toyota driver.

^That's ****ing nut's, the front wheels of the truck are hardly touching the ground:eek:

Those Avensis' will probably be off to sunnier climates before they go to the scrapyard

1983 plate on that W126.

It has the post 1985 alloys, bumpers and lower door planks. Not sure if the colour was available in that year, I'd need to see it in daylight. Even has the post 1985 560SEL badging.

Seems somebody has gone to a lot of trouble and expense to make the car look slightly newer than it is. Or.......

Or... they'd want to go to a bit more trouble and expense than that - GZG 104 comes back as a Grey Corolla 1.8D (with fuel type shown as petrol ) on various vehicle check sites.

CZG 104 is a close match. Blue 280SE

Spotted this in Spain earlier today

Another Spanish merc spotted this evening. This one looks like it's been in the same spot for ages and out in the sun to long aswell

Something like that would be impossible with the stringent check that we have here. Why would someone do that to save a measley €1750 a year in tax for 5 or 6 years......
