Aren’t we all?
Later I did weekend and holiday work for my dad as someone who could be trusted to work a slide-rule or even an Anita four function nixie-tube calculator. I did get paid for that, enough to fund my bicycle-crashing habit 😁

Bought a cheap Amazon roof basket for the Bronco.
Won’t fit in (or out) the garage door with it installed.
So I found a place to store it when not in use…

Found a late 80s Mercedes 560 SEC in the neighborhood today

Always loved these.

I hadn't had the chance to see one up close in a long time, but after taking it in for a bit, I enjoy the design of it even more!

This was my father’s car from ‘85ish- the mid 90’s….sexy thing but a big coupe for sure!

@SXP I think you need to step away from the keyboard for the evening.

Nice (cool Becker inside), but wrong position of the antenna 😁

Crazy car spotting today whilst out and about this morning. Sadly no pics as I was driving but I passed the new Corvette (never seen one on UK roads), a mk II Escort (i think) and an Ultima (no idea of model). Springtime sun was out on the UK today so I guess people were getting their cars out of winter hibernation.

This one today, we had a compare to mine ( you can see mine thru the windscreen).
Both of them are 1928 Austin 16 light six or 16/6 for short.
Both cars are in unrestored just maintained condition since their manufacture but his one the blue one is much nicer and fully complete, I have already suggested a price to him to buy.

Plain white, appears to be equiped for classic rallying? I've seen one such locally a couple of times. Exhaust may not get through noise check though. My neighbour muttered something about "boy racers", but they normally have numbers on the doors which is a giveaway that the car is not actually used in competition 'cos it's not allowed unless actually on an event This one didn't.
