Hit a bit of a jackpot earlier this morning whilst enjoying a bacon roll and coffee at a local pub. Noticed a Lagonda roll up and had a gander. More tasty than we realised at the time.
Vehicle: 1938 Lagonda V12 Le Mans Replica Two-Seater
Registration Number: NPJ 680
Chassis Number: SS 19221
Significance: Pre-production prototype and factory press car connected to racing driver Earl Howe.
An interesting one i just saw, a Ford Popular from 1959. However, it made quite a racket and i've seen online that its been modified with a Rover V8 engine!
I live in Surrey and work in West London, so I see a lot of nice old cars around and about. In particular in London several mews in South Kensington have been converted into garages for restoring classic cars. Here's a couple of pictures, but I have no idea what they are.
Meanwhile, over in east London, here's a worse picture of a worse car in worse condition. Apologies for the quality of the photo - taken from my bike while waiting at traffic lights. I don't know what it is but I can tell it's very old, so worth sharing!

Seen yesterday in Cambridge: Oct 69 modified Morris Minor pick up (H suffix) Apr 75 VW camper (N suffix) May 89 VW Westfalia camper (F prefix) Nov 92 Audi 80 (K prefix) Mar 99 Nissan pick up (T prefix) Sep 99 Saab 93 (V prefix)
Oh the VW-badged Audi 50? Take a bow.
The Polo was a cheaper mid-1970s alternative and yet it was just as well-made and nearly as well-specced. No wonder it outsold the Audi 50.
I can recall seeing the Mk1 Polo on the road in early 1980s - but I've not seen one since.
