[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

........a wander around a classic car show seemed like a good idea.

No Carltons, Sennys, Omegas then 
I guess they where all at church

Is that it on the back row of pic four with it's own matching parasol?

What pictures

[Sir Tigger KC]

What pictures

Yes... What do they say about useless threads with no pictures?

Pictures seem to have disappeared.

CBA to put them up again.

All you old lads will just have to imagine what an old Humber or Morris Marina look like.

[BazaJT]

Dad ran Humber Supersnipes as company cars from the middle '50's to '67[apart from one month with a MkI Van den Plas 3 litre]and I had a '64 MkI Sceptre.Neither of us nor my siblings had a Marina

There is only one desirable Cresta  ;  a Cresta PA  from around 1961

On Bangers & Cash they had a ESTATE Cresta PA.  Absolutely in immaculate condition.   Apart from my Omega there are few cars I would really love to own, but that Cresta; Yes Please!!

[Raeturbo]

I'd love a PA too, my father had a Cresta pa Basingstoke Friary. Back door fell off and drag link came off, those are the fond mammaries Er......memories 🤣

[Mr Skrunts]

The one car I would have loved was a 24V Senator,

Every week I valeted a brand new Senator for a customor of mine.

He bought it as a retirement pressie for himself to tug the tin box arround.

Loved it, Not quite as comforfortable as the 2.9 Scorpio Ghia (nicest seat trim/level I have sat on.  But the Ford verse Vauhall, no contest, Santator won hands down.

Interiors have shrunk over time, My Carltons were a tad smaller, Omega a tad tighter.

I like a roomy car with the gadgets, sunroof and electric sunroof have to be a must on my next car, but I am not aware of anything that I would like that compare to a Senator, Maybe a BMW series 7/8 or an S class Merc.  But I havnt enough spare cash to in vest in either, and would they ever be classed as a proper classic in t he future.
