Jeez thats genuinely the sadest thing Ive seen all day. Must have been a bit more than a standard in its day if someone paid for a glass sunroof.

Anyone care to take a go at naming the white car on the right hand side?
it seems to have the front of a pug 205 and the back of a mk2 golf!

 

either an old opel or mazda would be my guess.

 

a hi res dslr snap of that shot would be awesome. up there with the burnt out vento vr6 in the woods snap thats so famous.

That's an american 2l 8v vento thats in the woods.

They had a cross flow head.

 

sad sight

Still looks better than the white Mazda 323 (I think) on the right

 

 

genuine rat looker there; no need for fake patina....

...is that a 'chrome insert' windscreen seal on it?? If so they are right sought after, and usually command a price on uk forums...

 

My guess for the white car is a talbot horizon.

 

glenn is right, i was only there yesterday

 

ah right. thought it ooked like the vr intake manifold. my bad

speaking of sad pics. try this one

Id say your right glenn
