This is a very cool car. 1971 Alfa Romeo Giulia Super (1570cc) four-door saloon. These were in production briefly in the late 1960s and early 1970s - it applied some racing features of the Giulia TI (Turismo Internazionale) to a road car, including a top speed of 109mph. But as can be seen this one is ready to race!

The Fiat 500F was in production from 1965 until 1973. it was designed (by Dante Giacosa) to be very small and very light, using as little metal as possible. The fabric sunroof was very much a part of this - it was not optional. This striking example was registered in January 1971. It's a right hand drive model, built for the roads of the United Kingdom. In 1971, two Fiat 500 variants were available, the 500F, shown here and a slightly fancier model the 500L; with additional nudge bars, but without the front grille seen here.
The Marcos GT was a rather sporty looking 2-door coupé built (with various engines) between 1964 and 1972. The 3 litre Marcos GT debuted in late 1968, with the first production cars completed in early 1969. This one's a little newer, registered in January 1971.
Looking fly in gold... One of the later examples of this model... first registered August 1971 - absolutely superb

The Morris Oxford had a long production run, starting in 1948, and spanning six series. This lovely four door saloon was registered in July 1971, right at the end of series VI production. This will be one of the last Morris Oxfords produced. Blue with white roof. 1622cc petrol engine.
This is a very cool Porsche 911E from mid-1971. It comes from the start of Porsche "E-series" 911 production (August 1971 to July 1972) with a new 2.4L 911/52 engine (though actually closer to 2.3 at 2341cc) and Bosch mechanical fuel injection. Beautiful classic Porsche.
British Triumph Herald production ran from 1959 until 1971, though manufacture of the saloon version of the Herald 13/60 ceased in December 1970. This example, in Triumph's Valencia Blue, was registered in July 1971, and must have been one of the very last 13/60 saloons completed. The 13/60 has a larger (1296cc) engine than earlier Triumph Herald variants. Very cool car!
A nicely restored example of an early 1970s Beetle, currently residing in the sunshine of the island of Crete. The 1302 was a slightly larger Beetle, offering significant extra luggage capacity, but being only 2 inches greater in length. In the USA the 1302L was marketed as the Super Beetle.
1971 Volkswagen T2 transporter / camper van. This is an early bay window T2. Originally white, this van features custom beach artwork by art at the beach in Mawgan Porth, Cornwall. The conversion to a camper was performed by Danbury motor caravans.
Looking good in cream and green.This 1971 Volkswagen T2 has a number of early features that would soon be gone - such as the bumper 'step' and low-down indicators. Compare this with a 1972 Volkswagen T2
