I thought as part of my rehab I'd start up a thread along the lines of what I used to post. I've signed up on Instagram and everything. So presumably I may get some likes from Ariana Grande et al. For now, I'll just post anything I've seen on current journeys, but I may go through the archives later. It won't necessarily be all cars, but anything else of interest I may see when out and about. So these are from a journey I made today https://www.instagram.com/p/CilKsYTDib- Old timer. Not sure what it is, and I can't be bothered going back to the non-doctored view to check the plate on DVLA! I'm sure somebody on here will know. Ive noticed that Instagram seems to crop a bit more of the already cropped pic, so I'll have to bear that in mind next time. And then I saw this sign... https://www.instagram.com/p/CilKuOCDlTW That's a name I've not seen for a long while. Presumably in a managerial/emprasario role these days

I often drive past Ye Olde Plough House on the Brentwood Road near Upminster, which has various upcoming chicken in a basket type events advertised outside on a couple of boards. These are what's currently being promoted when driving southbound. They do change eventually, so I'll keep an update going when things do change! https://www.instagram.com/p/CilKzL-jc5i (I've embedded two pics here, but only one rectangle thing is showing up, so hoping that it does mean that there are two pics nonetheless. I'll find out when I click Create Post!) (In fact, I'll do so now just to make sure)

No, just the second one, so here's the first... https://www.instagram.com/p/CilKwWTj9lF Anyway, Mark Kingswood, no idea. Never seen Frozen. Might fancy the Motown night though. https://www.instagram.com/p/CilK3UOjJBZ Ah, vehicle. Nice splitty. https://www.instagram.com/p/CilK56sj-zU I pass this sign frequently, and every time I do, all I can imagine is Pat Roach in a white apron frying sausages in a pan! Must pop in one day, but I fear that illusion will be shattered. https://www.instagram.com/p/CilK8C8DLqK Another victim of the Instagram double crop. I'm not sure, but I think this might be a Porsche Carrera GT, which is a bit of a rare beast. The trouble is, the number plate is of a non-standard format, so I can't get anything from the DVLA site. Ye Olde Plough House northbound https://www.instagram.com/p/CilK-nID9UK Hope you're getting ready for it Del! And the other northbound sign... https://www.instagram.com/p/CilLBiuD7K9 Not clear on this crop, but the small word to the right of "Dolly Parton" is "tribute". Might catch some of the passing C&W fans out. https://www.instagram.com/p/CilLET7jWaC G-Wiz with L plate. I'm trying to find the words. And sadly a bit of a distance away and was turning away from me, but what the hell https://www.instagram.com/p/CilLGmPjFJ3 Mk3 Cortina. Honest!

The car in the top photo is a Riley RM, made from 1946 to 1955

Nice one Cartman I wonder if that's the one Bob Ferris had a model of in his tea chest!

Nice spots PP! The VW Split screen seems to have an unusual body, can't make out if it is a pick up with a canopy or some sort of minibus. Over to a certain member on here then...........
