Peter would be able to name most of these, if not all, especially if there was a Hillman Minx like "Our Dorothy" but he's out at the moment.

I think 49 is a Ford Classic , I had one 1969/70

Peter has just gone through them like a dose of salts and named about 95% of them but I am not going to list them all.....there are far too many! Good photo, Ron!

Peter asks if anyone can say which number in Ron's line-up the 1948/49 Morris Low-Light is? He was amazed to see it as his Dad had one in the sixties.

And it was free parking?

My memories of the market car park, the cars were parked facing Market Street or the Bus station. These all appear to be ends on to the market. I don't remember them being parked in this way ?

Number 22 is a Morris Minor Low Light, Irene.

Many young male drivers now only want a ‘bigger bang’ Twin this and double that , nowt to sixty in seconds and an exhaust that sounds like a growling , on heat rejected lion , in the darkness of Africa . At the lights ...
When the lights change , foot down and show my lion is better that yours ...
I enjoy the free ride into the sunset like anyone , but what’s with the ego? What’s beyond a twin turbo and how will the exhaust of the future sound?

MrX. I see a BMW. Also, don't forget, Ford is American.

May well have been American, but Henry Ford was anti-Semitic, and strong supporter of the NAZIs, as was Walt Disney.

Plenty of Vauxhalls too, another fine British marque owned at the time, by General Motors.

I think it was Rootes in the 60's?
