runnersp Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 A Phaeton would actually be a really good bet IMHO. Bit wafty thing with a fairly anonymous look to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaky Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Took the dog for a walk this morning, tried a different route and I came across a Fiat 124 coupe and a Lancia (similar size but couldn't see the model only the badge) just parked up rotting in the front garden. I'll need to go bad an take a picture, but its such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
