That TR4 Police car is taxed and on the road according to DVLA site. It is now Green. I wonder if the owner is aware he has a rare ex-police TR4.

Some familiar views there! Manchester city centre has changed beyond all recognition now, amazing really, sky scrapers going up everywhere as has crime, litter and street begging. Don't get me started... :|

A great site on the following link full of old pictures (1950s and 1960s). You need to do a bit of digging but there are all types including motorsport and London street scenes.

That's outside John Sprinzels. I dont recognise the band but there's another similar shot with a lady in the line up.

Aren't they just... a set of those would look good on SCV mate! ;)

I think Pete's right it looks like Badfinger, the band that Beatles roadie Mal Evans suggested to Macca when Apple was starting up.
