325i. Today wasn't the best for spotting was rainy and cold.
 
Can't tell if 308 or 328... Getting gas.

View attachment 135125

It's a 308, the 328 had a colour-coded front bumper and a more obvious grill. They are harder to tell apart from the back though. Awesome spot, when I was a kid I used to be a little flippant about these, preferred the BB, Testarossa etc. but in the last few years they've really grown on me, even if (especially in modern terms) they are not particularly fast.
 
Hey! I'm not that bloody old!

(But i think it's a Hillman Minx or Super Minx, or what ever Routes Group badge-job variant)
 
I didn't say you were old I knowyou've got good knowledge of older British cars.

Turns out you don't know what you're taking about :P

It even says Vogue on the front passenger door, and it's clearly not an '88 model. :P

Haven't seen a Mk IV Vogue since my dad checked one out at a local garage a few years ago. Part of me wished he bought that instead of keeping the Megane.
 
Here's another installment of RCG's Random Car Spots.

Yesterday, I saw this F-150 SVT Raptor. I didn't post it, because I personally don't like posting only one car per post unless it's something really special like a Boss 302 Mustang, Lamborghini, or something like that.

If anyone remembers when I posted a bunch of cars that were all owned by one cool guy. Well, I went by his house again and while I still saw 2 cars that were there before; I saw a couple new things. One included this Mustang.

I'm an idiot, I photobombed this picture with my own car. *facepalm*

Here's that 1969 Camaro Z/28 again. I had to take another pic of it since my original pics of it were on my other computer that broke.

Another look at the Chrysler Sedan I posted a while back.

This 1967 Mustang was behind a fence at a house close by.

Further up the road was this 1994 Corvette Coupe for sale. Honestly, I find facelifted C4s better looking than the first C4s tbh.

Chevrolet Corvette C5 Z06

I saw this in a Cul De Sac, it looks to me like an old British Roadster.

Great post, that Z/28 looks sick. Also, the abandoned british roadster is a Spridget, I think. Cue in people that know about british cars, please.
 
Nobody really answered my questions in the opinion thread so don't hate.
Ford Ranchero. I've seen this sooooo many times and have finally gotten a (blurry) pic.

I usually say never leave your camera at home... but I was getting rides to and from work today (nice new radiator for my Lady!) and stopped to eat with mom before going over to pick it up because it wasn't finished yet, saw a very nice 4th gen Mustang in the restaurant lot and thought it might be there still by the time we finished and I got my car and camera (it was Indians opening day I figured the guy was there watching it, little Irish restaurant/pub with a few TVs at the bar...)

on the way back to the restaurant...

MR-S with nice contrasty wheels


lol wat???? Snyder ST 600...


and the Mustang was still there, and the sun came out! (been rainly all day, only sun turned out to be brief between warm and then cold fronts...) LX 5.0




then took a cruise around Jacobs Field or whatever they call it nowadays, and lucky! though I think this guy was being paid to drive it around the field on opening day...




funny, since we weren't moving much for a while, a bunch of drunken hooligans crossed in front of us, ooing and ahhing at the C7, but then my car, too! Though most of them thought it was a Delorean...

then since I was downtownish and there was still some light, over to a trendy neighborhood with some nice restaurants (that I used to sell Organic produce to...) with some back alley scouting mixed in...

little pocket digis can fit through fences! (just hold the wristband securely unless you want to climb a fence!) Spotted a MGB way back... have to include Airstreams, my grandparents were big Airstreamers...


and more MGB's when I was able to get around side, but what's the 2nd car in?


capped...


something expensive out for a bite


Caddy! Well, Caddies. Model/year?


note the evolution of the fin, thought that was nice


ooo 5th gen Thunderbird! for sale by the looks of it. And another Airstream, lucky!


and just across the street, wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't stopped when I saw the T-bird trough a fence, Z3 M with a wing! Getting dark, so home after this.




So, maybe I should forget my camera more often, or none of this but the Mustang would've happened...

oh, and saw this yesterday... rare to see a bee in the rain, right? :sly: (remember I'm a farmer...)
