Don't see these too often now! A 24 year old @chrysler @jeep @jeep_uk #cherokee #jeepcherokee from June 2000, recently spotted. On 92k miles at last test (12/2023). This is a late #2ndgen #xj #cherokee xj - replaced in 2002 by the #kj .

'F' is for Friday - and Ferrari! #ferrarifriday is this 2019 @ferrari #488 #pista #488pista .

'Pista' is the Italian word for 'Track' whereas the other 488 available is the Spider. The Pista uses a 3.9L Twin #Turbo #V8 to produce 710 bhp.

2023 @bmw @bmwuk_ @bmwmotorsport #M2 #g87 spotted recently.

I think red is quite a rare colour on these G87s, tend to see a lot of darker ones, and occasionally a purple type colour, and most of the press cars were the light blue.

Looked great though!

Not the usual type of car to go to a theme park in - but why not! Spotted this @rollsroycemotorcars #silverspirit recently. It's a 91 car which means it is a either Silver Spirit or Silver Spur. On this occasion, the rarer Silver Spirit. This one was MOT tested at 75k mi in 2023.

I'm not sure if this is one for #choddytuesday - but it's 25 years old, so deserves a post anyway! A 3-door @suzukicarsuk #vitara from March 1999. This one was on 41k miles at last test in January this year, but has been on this sort of mileage since 2018. Good to see it in use!

A recent spot is this Vauxhall @opel #astra gte #vauxhallastragte . This one was first registered in May 1988 making it nearly 36 years old.

#fordfriday is this @ford Ford UK #fiesta #van - 30 years old this year and just passed it's MOT with a steady 74k miles on the clock. I can't imagine many Fiesta cars of this era had #diesel engines - as this one does!

#wheeltappers #fordfiesta #fiesta van #fordvan #transitvan

One for #chod dytuesday - and this one definitely is #chod - a @suzukicarsuk #swift #suzukiswift from September 2002, still going strong and on 66k at last MOT (summer 2023), complete with trim hanging off and a rear wiper stuck in the up position!

Not done a #murkymonday for a while - and today definitely is! Here's a @mercedesbenz Mercedes-AMG #amg #SL43 spotted last week.

This one is the #4-cylinder, 2.0 #turbo #mild #hybrid and this is the first time a 4-cylinder SL has been offered since the #190SL #w121 from 55-63.

Here's what a 33 year old van looks like! This 2nd gen @ford Ford UK #fordtransit was first registered in March 1991, and passed it's latest MOT just this week on 72k miles.

The 'Slow children crossing' text would perhaps suggest some life as an ice cream van.

#icecreamvan #Van

Complete with roof tent, is this 1993 Land Rover #rangerover #rangerover mk1 from 1993.

This one is a diesel and is from September 1993, and at last MOT in 2023 was on 195k miles.

#choddytuesday this week is that Vauxhall #brava from 1995. The #vauxhallbrava was a pickup sold by Vauxhall, but initially badged as a Bedford. This one is from November 1995 and had an MOT until a couple of weeks ago. Last MOT was Feb 2023 at 147k.

Rainy screen adds to the #choddytuesday dullness of a #rover #metro . This is a car registered in early 1994 so would've been one of the later Metros, before they became the #rover 100 in late 94. This one had it's last MOT in 2023 at 32k and is complete with Fat Willy's sticker

Officially registered as a 'Motor Caravan' is this Volkswagen News @ukvolkswagen_uk #t2 #vw #volkswagent2 #type2 #volkswagent2 . Registered January 1973 makes this one 51 years old and still parked up and looking tidy.

#OMG (see what I did there) - after yesterdays' #MGB , it's another #coupe and this time a #1982 @ford Ford UK #capri for #fordfriday

This one is a 2.0 litre version, spotted very recently. On circa 70k miles at last test (2021).

#carsofthe80s #retrocar #modernclassic #80scar

This car will be 50 years old in a few months time! Parked up on a street a couple of months back was this 1974 #mg #mg b #mg bgt

These were designed by @automobilipininfarinaofficial and produced between 1965 and 1980, so this one is almost a mid-life car.

Sorry for the bad quality photo, was taken from an office window!

Brand new in October #2023 is this @porsche @porschegb #cayenne #ehybrid #coupe - probably a #v6 - still looks like a brand new car for another couple of days until the #24plate is launched.

#germanwhip #supersuv

#chod dytuesday this week is a 2002 RenaultUK @Renaultgroup #espace #renaultespace #3rdgen #JEo on at the end of it's final journey into a scrapyard a couple of years ago.

The 3rd gen Espace was replaced in 2002 so this was a very late model.

#chod #oldcar #modernclassic

Brand new @porsche @porschegb #panamera #sportturismo spotted recently. Looks like a #ehybrid model with the 2.9 #v6 - bit of a rare one really as people seem to be buying the #taycan #taycan crossturismo a lot more these days!

#germanwhip #porschepanamera #bahnstormer #sportsuv

Bit of an odd one - lots of very new (some unregistered!?) cars on a pub car park in Manchester recently including a new @ford Ford UK #mustang #mustang gt
