Couldn't open the bonnet at the time, yard wasn't attended - until the landlord came by and kindly asked me to leave until yard was attended by the tenant who I guess has the keys :D

That green one looks like a true barn find...

The white one looks like a bit of a jungle find! How'd you spot this one Steptoe - are you stalking subarus in obscure locations now? :lol:

Ok, surely everyone has heard of a Patina Beetle? What would be wrong with a Patina Subie?

Is that their official name?! They look cool and I reckon an old school subi would fit the bill.

So, with that, When will you be picking this up Steptoe?
