Great stuff. Love CCW very cheap and one of the best publications out there. The old photos are brilliant.

Re: The Way We Were - Special Edition
I've just noticed that a town near me, Lampeter, is featured in Nick's first photo.
How that same street is now, as seen on Google Streetview.

I much prefer the early pic, when cars didn't all look the same and pedestrians didn't have mobile phonesAndrew 2.8i wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2019 7:23 am I've just noticed that a town near me, Lampeter, is featured in Nick's first photo.

Looks like the sun was out too due to the hot summer that year

Re: The Way We Were - Special Edition
Very true, Andy!
Your comment got me thinking about the good old days. When I was a young boy, I could easily identify a car from the smallest of details, and I'm sure a lot of the people here on the forum could do the same. Now I often can't identify a new car until I'm close enough to read the badges.
To prove the point that leads me neatly to car bore quiz time! Who's up for it?
Here are the headlights from a classic car and a modern car. The classic is easy to identify, but just what is that modern car?
Classic car:
Modern car:
Any guesses? Does anybody care?

Re: The Way We Were - Special Edition
Hi Andy,
You're right about the first car. Your guess with the second proves your point about modern cars looking the same!
Any more guesses?
Andrew.
Re: The Way We Were - Special Edition
Knew I would be wrong But it could be a handfull of Fords or something completely different. Tbh I'm bored just thinking about it.Andrew 2.8i wrote: ↑Sun Nov 17, 2019 11:38 amHi Andy,

Only car I like that is fairly new in the UK is the V8 Mustang, anything else doesn't bother me at all.

Re: The Way We Were - Special Edition
The classic picture is a small picture and modern picture is big ?
I will go Mk1 escort GT as it has round lights and the other picture is a white Mustang Eco ? As I am sure this famous welsh person had one ?
Ps only took a few weeks to get that joke in ........................?

I think I know what you mean.
The Cougar (Puma concolor) is a large felid of the subfamily Felinae, native to the Americas.
