I normally wait for dsl to pronounce on Rootescrap, but he must be away bashing neeps or training his racing haggis, so here goes. The engine size of 1669cc is correct for a Humber 12, the numberplates match, and the car is without doubt a Humber. I think we can safely say it’s the same vehicle. |

The highlighted vehicle should be the same here... This registration number, has been worrying me for a few days since capturing this picture. Thinking that I've seen it before, I've been searching the imcdb site looking for it, mainly thinking it was ACD 707 but also for ACO 707 Only now to find now its the same one I added to Foyle's War about the same time! The grey-matter is obviously not functioning on all cylinders. |

Since numberplates are so easily exchanged I tend not to rely on them, but in this case it would seem that there is no difficulty. My grey matter seems to have been on a downward trajectory for about the past forty years but it does work fairly well at recognition of antiquities with wheels on, provided that they are from certain groups. The difficulty with this Humber was that it was a back view of a small volume car which was all but extinct so I didn’t recognise it. Having the boot lid open didn’t help either. -- Last edit: 2018-09-28 21:33:16 |

Something like that. Am house-sitting 27 sheep, 8 hens and 5 ducks on some windswept islands off the top of Scotland. Should be back home in a couple of days. |
