I remember seeing your car nick for the first time when I first joined five years ago . I had never seen a Darrin or even heard of one up and till I saw one of your posts, and I thought what a beautiful car , you must be sad to part with it , it’s beyond my budget but I wish you success in finding a new lucky owner.

Merci Sebastian Encore une merveilleuse collection ! I

Those pre war guys had some taste , beautiful!

Great collection ,many thanks and appreciate the actual effort in posting so many images

Wish I could move to states , love that blue house 375k amazing , that’s less than my 2 bed town house with no garage , here in Southampton Uk

Interesting stuff and such beutiful cars

Notice some british cars on right hand side , including AustinA90 Atlantic , which I always liked ,but haven’t seen for years over here . I had a 52 A40 Somerset it’s baby sister , great first car .

In the Uk personal plates are usually easily identified as they have less characters and don’t include the registration year within the characters which is the norm here now

I had HUR not HER ,because My surname is HUR 😁, however HER would have cost more at the time but perhaps should have bought as even more valuable now

The fact the choice is limited in Uk in fact effects the price , often the personal plate is worth more than the car , single digit after initials especially, changing hands for thousands. I bought two plates B4 HUR which I had on a nice BMW convertible shortly after my divorce , caused a few smiles, now jag and B9 HUR (Sounds like BEN HUR chariot 😊)had on a sporty car . I paid about 400 dollars each , but now fetch double at least

No one has admitted to having one on their car so far , here in the Uk they are very common , I have two which have been on various cars I have owned during the last 30 years 😊

agree Sebastien, just on this occasion, muscle cars predominant and not a fan , however many earlier American could have stole the show, think a 62 or 58 corvette or 53 skylark would have my vote 😆

Some great American cars , but sorry to my co members ,on this American forum , white 62 alfa stole the show 😊

1958 Thames van , horrid 1960 Morris traveller , slow but fun 1952 austin A40 Somerset , definitely not suitable for hilly country , very stressful when traffic building up behind you. 😊

My jag 150 Xkr screams past 100 top speed to scary never got there .

Best thread since Walt started ‘ period enthralled! Even enjoyed the arguments 😄 Many thanks to all posters

Is it actually a physical car or a computer composite

Pity the nazi ‘ s put a blight on the style , but accept your points , hope you get your dream car one day. thanks

Would think the police officer was quite proud of his lovely automobile , but can’t say I like the very Germanic SS appearance of uniform and pose. Scary

I think this side of the pond we call them core plugs

Appreciate the craftsmanship but still think it’s over the top and ugly , but each to his own Bobby Darin obviously liked it or did he only drive it once

Congrats from a novice , who has always appreciated reading and learning from your posts during the last 5 years and applauds the obvious dedication, amazing record 😁 thanks

ugh !! Looks like might suit the Addams family

Only a reader , not a pre war car owner , but interesting thread some great information thanks to all posters

Think Grace would suit
