What a trooper! Might be a bit flat but with damm near 250k on the clock it has seen things.

Nr Villa Park.

The FOTU car was incredible, well deserved winner. Was great to see it up close.

Superb car, sorry that’s another Skoda model. Erm, amazing and my favourite too seeing the story about the headrest collection was epic. Was also my pick of the concours. Well done to Simon!

Festival of the Unexceptional 2025 delivered goodness as always. Delightful Skoda on Concours. However managed to get three launch 1993 K plate Corsa Bs together. Superb rare SRi and another launch LS in delightful frost blue. Great day again. #fotu

The 90s at Tesco again! About the same length too!

Thank you - working on it. Slow progress.

I can tell it will be a slog already. The response from the Police was 'there is a potential that there was a misread within the issues ticket which would be the more likely outcome based on the evidence provided on our systems'. Whatever that poor english means! May need a new reg plate now :(

Thanks, I can imagine what hassle it was for you. Did you go for a new registration afterwards? I'm challenging as we speak the PCN.

A downer for getting the car out there. Shows the inherent risks of doing so. It’s a hassle. You can’t speak to humans at the police or council, only through online forms first. Everything is on me to show wrong doing. System is completely unfair. Pictured driver doesn’t even have seatbelt on!

My registration plates have been cloned and I am fighting against a PCN from the Clean Air Zone in Birmingham City Council. Getting West Mids Police interested is hard as well. Everything is on me to prove this obvious later phase 2 is not me or my Corsa. Be careful those who have cars out the ‘net

Bank holiday weekend Finesse spot.

Ugh! Broken door latch on the Berlingo. Thankfully not too miserable to repair/swap over with a second hand assembly today. All greased up too now which should help.

Two spots before going to Villa Park and leaving the ground. Awesome.

Lunch.🤪

Yes they really complement the whole arrangement!

Oooh CDX, alloys might even have aircon. That’s a fancy one 😎

Obligatory parking next to 90s cousin.

Yes using the full length and girth of the tray! There was an optional rubber liner that goes for a pretty penny! That would set off the usual McDonalds bag nicely.

A very untypical Corsa B tea shelf arrangement? I’m surprised I was served…. @mattfd.bsky.social

Not advocating it, just bought to try out - Demon foam, connect direct to a garden hose. Undecided as to whether it was worth it yet. amzn.eu/d/dHa760g

I love this kind of detail and learning.

Good on you Jon. I'm a 'light' spanner user and thought you made a really good go at it. I'd like to do my Corsa B ones too. I'd look forward to more of your attempts in future.

Very wholesome spraying my car with foam.

This is why I have a base model as my daily!

Something I remember in the 90s is the clatter and sound of ice scraping. Good times!

They both offer something different and appeal in their own way for sure.

The Corsa is incredible, many shades of grey!

Oooh I remember hearing those noises through the wall at Uni :)

I feel it’s a bit more a sanctuary here for the car folk. Fingers crossed we keep the good vibes.
