Car-spotting in Athens Greece

If you could just hacksaw off the sidecar from pic 5 and pop the BMW in the post you would make me a happy man. And a happy new year to you.
If you want an unrestored but rolling one, I have more than five in mind. Seriously.
 
That is just so tempting. Such a shame we had to have that luvverly brexit bullsh1t happen, I've been looking at importing second-hand bikes from the EU but the extra layers of expense and paperwork involved are pretty damn prohibitive. Still, at least we've got control of our borders again.=))=))

two more are inside the container.
 
But are they roof cut off and stacked on top of each other? That’s how they used to leave the UK for Thailand from Gainsboroug, allegedly.

Interesting 2 door Cortina. Never seen one of those.

More or less the same, but this one is an Argentinian Taunus.
So many of them over here back in the day and also the later model that was made in Turkey by their local Ford subsidiary Otosan.
 
My late brother had a 2 door Mk.3 many years ago.

Probably lacking a bit of structural integrity now.. but great fun. Friend had a Citroen Mehari which looked much the same
 
You got to admit that the cargo lid is a touch of pure class.
 
I thought that was just the spoiler in the “off” position . . . . . . . . :whistle:
