My first 2025 sighting of the Hummingbird Hawk Moth in the garden and it’s making the most of the lavender as the buddleia isn’t quite in flower yet @BC_Norfolk @norfolkmoths #norfolknature

A very zingy Citroen DS21 Pallas was a refreshing sight in a car park of greys and dark colours last weekend. Super stylish #Citroen

Stuck in the 90’s somewhere in King’s Lynn. They never seem to move (although I could be wrong) but a stylish 2 coupe driveway nonetheless. @alantaylorjones - thought you’d appreciate this given your post earlier today.

The first gen. Suzuki Vitara seemed to be everywhere in the 90’s and many were personalised by their owners. They have now all but disappeared now, however, its warm and sunny today so someone has brought this one out 😎

More Citroen brochuring. I also rather like the 2CV brochures of the time laid out like a Tintin comic strip. I have two of them but were there any more like this that I am missing? Any ideas @keithwrjones

Random car brochure of the day. The Citroen Visa C15 van was launched in the UK in 1985 with a rather unconventional single side hinged read door (dropped a few years later). I love the way this early brochure plays on the colour availability and is shaped like a wine bottle.

Managed to make it along to #carsandcoffee Liverpool yesterday for the first time in a few years and it didn’t disappoint. Was pleased to see the two BMW beauties, a genuine RHD 3.0 CSL and an E28 B7. Glorious weather too.

Interesting back story to this lovely 1937 Wolseley 14/56 which was used as an Army Intelligence Corps surveillance vehicle in London during the Second World War.

Unrestored and very patinated this 1932 Thrupp & Maberly bodied Rolls Royce hasn’t been taxed since 1981 and still had the tax disc on the screen. Definitely has a certain charm about it #Stradsett
