Been slacking on the spotting recently. Not one Corsa A in Paris...
So here's a cheeky little one I spotted this morning near Tunbridge wells.

Yes it is Onslow's Cortina. Its in the garden of the guy who rented it to the production team for use on the program.Quote:

They say the spark plug is still in place in the exhaust backbox to backfire on demand. There was a mk1 Transit recovery truck in an episode too and that is/was owned by the same person.
The cortina onslow used has recently been crushed. There's a facebook page'classic car scrapyard finds' and it's shows it on the back of a transporter on it's way to be crushed.

On Thursday. Belongs to Mierian (sp) iirc? I know you don't seem to like me mate (footy?) but nice car, all the same. :thumb:
Sold, or just moving it?
Think he was taking it to have the exhaust sorted.
Mustn't have been going to AAS then.Quote:

There was a few million quid floating around the Marina. There was a UK registered AMG Merc(111E I think the reg was) and a Dubai registered Lambo amongst the multi million pound boats
You in Antibes or somewhere on the co'dezore (or however it's spelt)?Quote:

Couple of Mk2's in our resort in Ibiza. The first one looked very clean, the second one was a bit of a dog. Had a good look around it as some English guys were looking at it to buy. It was only fit for the scrapyard imo! Anything goes in Spain though!
Seen an early Mk1 in San Antonio but the pics are on my camera, will post them later. The old woman came out of her house to see what I was up to, she must have thought I was nuts lol.
Winning the bet so far with the missus, we had a guess on how many we would see over here. I won the first bet as I bet on 'how many Nova's we would see'. I said none and she said ten lol. Then had the real bet, the closest wins. I bet three, she bet ten again! If she won I have to sell a Nova, if I won I could buy another lol we are on four so far so looks like I am on target to by another lol lol lol

First time I've seen a nova in a while and I seen 2. Both were parked in driveways a blue mk2 and a yellow mk1 didn't get pics though.
Yellow mk1 is a 1.2 that looks like a sr but has 1.6 really roughly fitted been sitting a while tho just been sold to a guy I know, what the blue one look like?
The yellow one that's in mastrick? Was sitting in a drive with 2 corsa b's aswell. The blue one looked a bit abandoned tbh I'll get pics later if I'm passed.
Did the nova have gloss black bumpers skirts and silver multi spoke alloys? And corsa possibly with bumpers etc off etc?
Yeah that's the one mate, was just away to stop for a pic but there's a cop car parked right beside the house they would have thought I was getting ready to steal it or something lol lol
there's a blue one in mastrick been lying for years with k something something in massive vinyl letters. I spotted a 2 door saloon in Ellon, will post a pic up later. Totally unmolested.
That's the blue one I spotted today kms in big writing on it lol
Here you go bazza
