Some cars of interest spotted over the last few days:
Spoke to the owner of this wonderful 1978 Honda Accord last week. He has owned the car from new and says the main reason why it has survived for so long is that he gave it extra rust proofing straight after purchase. He is very fond of it and has no plans to get rid:
90s survivors spotted recently. Yes that is a Tempra SW:
80s survivors spotted on Saturday:
A Nissan duo in Golders Green:
MK4 Astras are still very common in London and the surrounding areas, but I thought this one was worth a photograph due to it being such a basic example. Black lower bumpers, steel wheels, 3 door and household appliance white. True poverty spec:
Bank holiday spots:
A few recent spots:
Not particularly rare, but this Audi A3 caught my eye earlier simply due to it being such an early model. Hard to believe they are 28 years old this year:
80s and 90s estate cars spotted in NW London on Friday:
@joncoupland @rustivalfest I’m going to stick all my camera pictures into a Google Drive once I’ve finished sorting through them, but I love this one my step-dad took of the Belgian Mini, part of our 940, and then @peugeoting, @ChodofL and co holding court around my 106 😁
A mix of German, British and Japanese:
Recent 90s spots:
More spots from recent times:
Recent stuff:
K10 Micra’s still surviving well in NW London, albeit most off the road now:

@ChodofL Well maintained older cars are a joy to see. And usually cheap to fix. What’s not to like? 🥰🥰
@ChodofL This photo takes my brain to another dimension. 4 90s cars in one photo! Something hiding to the left beyond the petrol station, too..
@ChodofL Happy memories of my girlfriends mums AX GT. poky little thing that was a hoot to drive! She was kind enough to insure me on it.
@ChodofL Wouldn't fancy crashing either of them into anything modern. Do love a bit of retro, though. My work van is a bit of a survivor. 24 years old now
