I'm sure you're right, but what was parked...?

Yep apologies been having some problems with the images, Photobucket used to work just fine, image would be open when you viewed page but they wanted $400 to maintain image sharing. I not feeling the love at Dropbox so I'm giving Snapchat a go but as you can see you only get a link to the image.

Anyway it was a nice red TR6.

Rather rough edges to this Bristol 409 but at least it’s being serviced as it was seen outside a Dulwich garage. 5.2 litre Chrysler engine and interesting Chrysler gears selected by push buttons.

Spotted this a few days ago. Not especially exotic but a rare sight these days.
Looked tiny by comparison to today's cars... at least it did until a proper mini went by moments later.
