Every time I see a new post by you in this section I can't help but be amazed at the cars you seem to have squirrelled away. Bravo sir and cheers for posting all these toys, mini's or otherwise :)

Awesome! Love them in white.

My first car was a 2000SC in Mexico brown, I loved that car, I passed it onto my mum when I got my first P5 and she got many years of happy motoring out of it as well.

A very smart car, I have long mourned the sad day I sold my P6 estate.

Thats gorgeus 8-)

I saved the second to last P6 V8, off the production line.

It had been left at a scrapyard here in Elsinore :roll:

Its Avecado Green, with Black vinyl roof & C pillars.

It has a Danish fitted electric steel sunroof, from Bentzen Coachbuilders in Copenhagen.

PS the last one survived too 8-)
