I think it is purple but can't be sure, been a while since I've seen it. It is indeed Newbury HQ Carpark. The other Supra there has the numberplate OIL<numbers> in case that's another known Supra

It's frowned upon but there's no inspection for it, so he'll drive this until it blows up.

That's vinyl siding (goes on the side of houses for airflow into attics) with a bulb stuck through it... burning it it seems haha

Also love the painted rims.. and tires also painted

Also missing a lug nut... from before he painted it as the threads are gold too bahaha

Wow, so you can drive around in a death trap and there is nothing done about it? Is this what American's mean by "freedom"?

Also, say he was to be involved in an accident, which was caused by the wheel that's not secured coming off, would that just be cool or some consequences?

If you have bald tires/impaired in anyway and cause an accident they'll bring the flames of hell down on you lol. You'd be amazed at what people drive here, seen someone with a completely T-boned car, looks like a boomerang.. just merrily driving to work

@tek81 Love the Integrale - wish I'd had the money to buy one ~15 years ago when they were reasonably priced (especially the Evos).


Chap down the road from us owns a few classics like that. Escort RS, Delta Integrale, and a few others. Drives them for a week or so at a time and then swaps. Obviously has access to a shed or barn or whatever and dailies them in turns. They're meticulously looked after too. Brave man, here in Streatham!

Things like that aren't just in Florida. Heh. These are some I've seen out and about near me. I wonder if they'd pass an MOT? :p

If they introduced some sort of MOT over here it would bankrupt so many people.

Nice. Also a fan of the Escort Cossie as I'm a rally fan. Used to have the Tamiya RC car as a nipper.
