Alan, you seem to have a fair number of 'our cars' on the Isle!

Secondly, I love magenta :eyes4u:

Not as many as there was - the scrappage scheme claimed some, plus there are others that I know who the owners are so haven't bothered to post them here as this is cars that you have seen but don't know who they belong to.

Maybe the Moderators could take the Dolomite style cars out of the "Today's Top Spot" topic (in the General Chat part of the forum) and add them in here as it appears I am the only one posting here?

Is this because this forum is now just exclusively for technical articles - as that is the way it appears to me these days?

If that's the case it won't be long before the forum dies. In my opinion.

I don't agree, Dollies, Tollies & FWD are a pretty rare sight on our roads & to find one parked to take a picture of is even rarer.

I will certainly post here if I manage to snap one.

Keep the pics coming Alan, I enjoy seeing what you have caught on camera on the island.

I hope we can get a few more people posting on the forum, it does seem to be only a few of the 1900+ members that bother.

Similarly, I spend quite a lot of time on the roads and haven't seen a Dolomite in weekday use so far this year...

The Magenta Sprint above, was on Ebay sometime ago and lived in Epsom in Surrey, I saw it drive through Chertsey (Surrey) and was surprised to see one look so much like mine. I wondered where it ended up.

I bore my family by suddenly yelling out somewhere..... Quick, did you see that Toledo, it was a beaut, only for them to roll their eyes. Sadly, it's usually when I'm driving around, without a camera!
