NICE SET OF WHEELS...

Anyone remember the television series 'The Prisoner' ? It started in 1967 and ran for two years I think, the star was actor Patrick McGoohan who played a former secret agent exiled to a strange coastal village. I was a big fan and eagerly awaited each weekly episode. Anyway the opening scene of each episode was Patrick driving a Lotus 7 sports car, when I saw this car parked near our gallery I was taken aback. It turned out it's not actually a Lotus but a kit car, who cares it stirred memories and I would love to have taken it for a spin...

WOW...

If you are a regular follower of this blog you know that I don't have much interest in cars. However, when I saw this beauty in the car park the other day I couldn't help but stop and stare, it looked amazing, what a driving machine !

Unfortunately the young lady driving it was off before I got a chance to speak to her so I don't know any detail but what a great looking car.

You may remember an American Cop series, Starsky and Hutch in the 1970's.  Their car was a red and white Torino.  While I was taking the picture it seems I was not the only one that was struck by Wanstead's own three wheel version.

WHAT MAKE IS IT ?

On Sunday on my way to the South Bank with a group of students for the Night Workshop, this great looking car was stationary at the traffic lights at Wanstead Station. I don't know what make it is so I need feedback please.  I suspect it might be American. Another good reason to always carry your camera, you never know what you will see.

LONG EXPOSURE.

Waiting for the fireworks the other night on the footbridge over the A12, I looked back towards the tunnel that runs under Wanstead and immediately knew that the car lights would make a great photograph.
