V.I.S.I.T. – 2008 Toyota Aurion Grande is a Camry with a cooler name

Just for Monday’s sake, I’m officially posting The Most Boring Car You’ll See Me Post, Without a Doubt™. Of course, the car wouldn’t be photographable and postable if it held no merit whatsoever, and I believe this sky blue Toyota is the only Aurion Grande in the country, at least the sole Aurion between Finnish…

V.I.S.I.T. – Rover Streetwise
/
/
comments
The black plastic-cladded Streetwise is the Outback-y development of the Rover 25, itself a facelift and rebranding of the new-for-1995 Rover R3 200-series. The Streetwise was one of the least well-received cars from the dying brand, and it was only made from 2003 to 2005, when MG Rover ceased operations. It’s also about as well…

Ya know my fellow Hoons, sometimes some really good shit happens to this olelongrooffan even when I’m not looking. I recently relocated to toney Palm Beach, Florida and I wasn’t really sure if there would be any cool car crap worth sharing but damn, am I surprised. Last weekend was a great British car show…

For some reason, I decided to use the parking garage rather than the surface lot when I pulled into work this morning. I’m glad I did, because I got the chance to get a few pictures of this A4 wagon.

V.I.S.I.T. – 1964 Fiat 1500GT Ghia Coupe

One doesn’t usually expect to see rare etceterini on the street in the Northeast till well into the month of May, though some even find May chilly. But every once in a while I am pleasantly surprised. Which is why the owner of this 1964 Fiat 1500GT Ghia Coupe gets a tip of the hat…

V.I.S.I.T. – 1969 Austin America
/

comments
British Leyland blessed us with many wonderful cars over the years, and was never afraid to pander to the American car buying public, giving us the big rubber bumpers that we demanded. But before 5-mph bumpers became a fad, we had to get by with the smaller chrome ones, as seen on this 1969 Austin…

Howdy y’all! Welcome to another installment of the vehicles you see in traffic. This week’s post is slightly abbreviated due to me packing up and driving to New York for the Auto Show. I basically just posted up all the pics you sent in, but without quotes or proper credit, which I am deeply sorry…

So last weekend after attending a St. Paddy’s Day car show up in the World Center of Racing, as this olelongrooffan was leaving that show filled with man-caves I spotted this sweet old ragtop. I don’t remember if the trim on the side came that way from the factory but I am pretty sure these…

V.I.S.I.T. – Pontiac Sunbird

Is there was ever a car that absolutely demanded a Carter Mondale ’80 bumper sticker, this was probably it. That’s right, a first-generation Pontiac Sunbird. These were made from 1975 till 1980, right smack in the middle of a period we now refer to as…. uhh…. The Great Dejection? No, wait, that was in the…

V.I.S.I.T – Mercedes 300D

Today we have a car that I’ve seen quite a few times over the years. This is a 1977-81 Mercedes 300D, which I’m guessing is the 3.0L 5-cylinder diesel (speaking of diesel). It’s a regular at this park & ride where I sometimes catch my bus, and I decided I should finally share the W123…
