No picture unfortunately, but I was passed by a hard-top V12 'E'-type Jag this afternoon (in convoy with a Vauxhall VX220 Turbo ?! 
) on the A9.
Sounded 'kin lovely it did!

Always a few interesting vehicles in Ashley Street, this wee Renault 4 has been there of late, and there's a classic R107 Mercedes SL there occasionally too.

That probably made your day Dave!
On the old car front, I saw loads last weekend driving from Dumfries to Thornhill. Lots of Morris Minors, a Morris Minor pick-up truck thing and a lovely orange Saab 96. Obviously some sort of rally / run?

They are quite rare droschke and worth a few bob as well.
A good Citroën DS Décapotable starts at £25,000 and £30,000+ isn't unheard of. A brave driver indeed who parks that piece of sculptured 4-wheeled art in Queen St!
Check where the rear indicators are - just at the bottom of the rear soft-top pillars - too cool!
You can take the man out of Maryhill, but you can't take Maryhill out of the man.

not sure if I've posted these before, and their not exactly pictures of a car. This was in what used to be called Deutsch Demecratische Republik (DDR or East Germany) it's a motorcycle using an old soviet helicopter radial engine.

Absolutely stunning - I love the thought process of bikers.
Dare I say it brings a whole new meaning to the term 'chopper'!
You can take the man out of Maryhill, but you can't take Maryhill out of the man.
