I had a good laugh with your post. It's great to find someone with worse 'new car fever' than myself.
R & E - very pleased you like them. I love to reminisce and cars are as good a memory as any! I look forward to views of the Subaru...
Morgan - cars are great to own. Now I'm reliving my youth and enjoying the thrill of two wheels all over again.
time travelling by auto!
fantastic stuff. i caught glimpses of 'only fools and horse' and 'minder' whilst looking at these lovely old cars.
great!
CJ - looking at these reminds me of that old TV prog "The Rock and Roll Years," news footage set to pop music of the time.
Finn - funny how we find ourselves attached to inanimate objects! Most of those pictures pre-date the digital age so my scanner had work to do.
beautiful post. I am a total gear head as well.
KC - past vehicles always bring back warm memories I think.
