A while back I would not have like the wheels on this Rangie. Now to me, they look perfect on this example.

Now here is a very rare SVO LR built vehicle, I'm told they built 16 of these to be sent to 'wild life centres in the USA.

This one has found it's way home (to the UK) It has a private plate currently

I thought it was one of those 'Safari' vehicles they built in South Africa using Knock Down Kits, but no they were actually built by Special Vehicles in the UK.

Anyone know any more about them ???

Wow that is really odd once you start to look at it in detail. 🤯🤯

1986 Defender 90 2.5 n/a Diesel ST Nato Green

Hi, please delete if it’s off topic

I had an interesting day today collecting 2 cars, both WILL live to see another day and be back on the road

the first is a 1992 Ford Sierra Ghia 2.0 Automatic Estate, it will need some work but is definitely worth doing, I have no reason to disbelieve what I was told on collection and that was the mileage which is unbelievably low, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the lowest mileage Sierra in the country at 2612 miles it was sadly parked up around 2007, I clear a lot of cars and to me the interior totally stacks up with the mileage, it truly is a time warp, I’d be interested to see what your opinions are

I can't comment on their history but guess current owner is Martin Fernihough with that number plate.

I’m not a fan of “modern” french cars, however I am of the old Citroen vehicles, they were so innovative in engineering and style and the one pictured is an absolute beauty. Even the colour scheme in that setting looks right.

Ps the bottom of the off side front wing looks to need some corrosion correction, as does the sill

funny you shown a old sierra, i have just seen a Granada around a similar age, just pass the house there

That looks like its been too good to scrap, when cars of that age were getting binned off. So its been mothballed ready to go back on the road at some point, just needs a few ££ spending and it will be good to go. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

One of the directors of Majestic Wine had one back in the mid-90s. It was kept in a lockup at one of the stores. No idea if it was ever renovated, but certainly a beautiful car.
