Fun thought experiment - what does the price of a new boring car get you in used interesting cars? A loaded, new, hybrid Telluride is $60k. So is a used Alfa 4C, Jag XKR-S, and AMG GT. #weirdcarbs
Good weekend capped off with this Jimny #carspotting My wife doesn’t even ask why I take “random” pics of cars anymore. Even better was a guy walking by on the sidewalk, Stopped, backed up, asked the driver a question (easy since it’s RHD), and took a picture. I felt vindicated

Signs of Stockholm syndrome: you start to think that bleeding inboard brakes is actually easier than normal types. #weirdcarBS

Got slightly disturbed on our dog walk this afternoon. #weirdcarbs
Very elegant Lynx Eventer. Just the car for driving a case of champagne home.

The growing popularity of the Suzuki SJ/Samurai was a boon for British kit car maker Rickman, which offered similar looks at far less cost in the shape of its Ranger, a GRP self-build kit launched in 1986. It required an old Ford Escort mk2 donor car for the interior and mechanicals. #weirdcarbs
Recently become obsessed with vintage tyre adverts, with a specific attraction towards Pirelli. #weirdcarbs
Side view of a black Rolls Royce Silver Spur from 1981 with most of its roof removed.
The front quarter view of the same car. It looks ridiculous.
Picture of the half finished rear bed. It looks totally overengineered.
I need to get off my phone and do some work but am impelled to share this glorious #WeirdCarBS madness I just came across on fleabay.
If only I had time and space for the £500 Rolls Royce pickup project...
Datsun described the styling of its quite radical front-wheel-drive 100A saloon (alternatively known as the Cherry) as 'breaking away from the basic box'. The upwardly curving rear side windows and rear creases were certainly very distinctive features. This is a 1972 brochure. #weirdcarbs
Rolls-Royce Camargue - CAR magazine 1979 #OldCarGBU verdict: Boring👎
For: The ultimate status symbol
Against: But there are far better cars, and cheaper
Sum-up: Exorbitantly dreary

Another brilliant day out at Silverstone with Carnatter today, for the first race meeting of the VSCC's race programme, and to meet up with old friends ❤️
Happy memories rekindled today over 35yrs later, of lining up in the Silverstone assembly area before going out to race 🏎️

OK guys, what do we have here?

Nice day to take the top down. Two Cobra or replicas were yards apart on opposite sides of Magazine. An SL 55 was down the block and a bonus AMC Concord.

D'oh!
Just realised it's #WeirdCarBS I've been confused at the amount of cars that had weird carbs.
A Honda Street Wagovan, a tiny van that almost looks like it's been flattened
I think I saw someone driving a Honda Street Wagovan or something on the road the other day, which was a totally wtf moment because it looked out-of-scale with every car around it #weirdcarbs
lol

Peugeot had a tradition of offering coupé and cabriolet versions of its mainstream models, and the 304 got this treatment, with the models featuring a shortened chassis. By the date of this 1975 Dutch brochure they used the uprated 1288cc 80bhp engine, shared with the S saloon. #weirdcarbs
