It's been a bit of an old car overload today. This fantastic looking #Renault 5 was in Waitrose #Stamford carpark this evening.

Picture shows the new AEM X-series controller fitted to the nearside inner wing of the Triumph - and a large bundle of coiled wire ready for shortening when a new 4-pin Econoseal connector arrives; the one I ordered helpfully having been supplied with a missing pin making using it pointless... 🙄
After pulling the dead Innovate LC-1 wideband HEGO controller from the #Triumph Mk2 PI last weekend, I wired in it's replacement: an AEM X-series unit.
It's not the neatest of jobs as its only fitted temporarily - but it's in and working and #rustival ready 👍😊

I love these pre-production C4 Corvette ZR-1s. The 8,000rpm digital tacho is just so cool.
(The production models got the facelifted interior with the more conventional instruments, among other things.)

I never knew they made a saloon of the 5th Gen #Ford #Mondeo. Spotted in a Sussex UK supermarket car park #CarBluesky #WeirdCarBS #carspotter

To finish my photos from Anglia Car Auctions, I'll stay on brand and post some Rovers.
@tobywakeford.bsky.social was tempted by the #Rover 200 Cabriolet, until we saw the state of the rear inner arches.

How about a base (I think, correct me if I'm wrong) #Vauxhall Carlton once driven by Jude Law. This one gets extra points for the vinyl roof.

I was editing some auction date listings during the week (I’m production editor on Classic Cars magazine), and saw those. Was almost tempted by the estate! #Austin #Allegro #WeirdCarBS

Its predecessor, an ADO16 in #Morris 1100 guise, is also on offer with some amazing period add-ons, including this rear window sticker.

Is the #Austin Allegro the ultimate UK #WeirdCarBS car? There's a choice of saloon or estate (which gets bonus points for being gold) at Anglia Car Auctions today.

Easy peasy, badge engineering squeezy.

Faced with introducing the unfamiliar Daewoo car brand in Australia in the mid-'90s, the company's importer enlisted a cattle dog called Cane to star in TV and print adverts. He is featured on this postcard with the immortal greeting G'Daewoo, and in a leaflet on the Load Runner van. #weirdcarbs

VW Polo & Derby - CAR magazine 1979 #OldCarGBU verdict: Interesting👍
For: Tremendously smooth, flexible engine, good steering, handling, ride
Against: Load access not as good in Polo?
Sum-up: Svelte, sophisticated baby and well made; booted Derby addition enhances appeal

How are we expected to take this company seriously when they name one of their cars “Superfast”? #weirdcarbs

Screenshot of a YouTube video "The Best Peugeot 405 TV Commercial Compilation" which has a car in front of an AI burning sky. The car looks a bit like a cross between a Peugeot 305 and Peugeot 505, but it also looks like it has an extra side window. The badge doesn't look like a lion and the number plate doesn't have proper letters or numbers
Maybe it's me, but I don't know why you'd make a compilation of Peugeot 405 adverts and then use an AI-generated thumbnail of a car that doesn't look anything like a Peugeot 405. #WeirdCarBS

Tonight’s find whilst in London.
The poor thing doesn’t have the best MOT history. Under 20,000 miles, regular failures, severe corrosion.

This Vitesse occasionally races with us in our historic events here in the northeast USA.
It runs a 2.5 L six with 5 speed box. It's fast. 👍
It was originally built and campaigned by Triumph-guru Kas Kastner in the 1970s
