There was no room for the rubbish cars so they had to park on the verge opposite.
Some other posh/old cars had been let in though. This is a Stoneleigh, one of those makes of car that did not last long and so no one has heard of any more. About 900cc air cooled flat twin if I recall?
Siddeley owners do it sitting down,
or with clipboards,

Split bench.

The local estate (in which one house had three rover 25s including a Streetwise) was good for period photography.
Cruising back with GaryCox and Barrett in the Simca we stopped at this garage for some more pictures. Odd really. Price on the pumps was about £1 a litre which puts it at about 2 years ago?

Could have spent lots of time there setting up better photos but they'll do.
Fairwell.
