About 20 years ago I managed to talk a fellow in Melbourne to just take a
bunch of pictures of parking lots with Rootes cars in them.... I have about 20
shots of Minxs, Hunters, etc just parked-GREAT photos-there were lots of them
around Australia back then.

Where I live a a rare sighting is like... the series 6 Hillman Minx I saw in
the Uni carpark 2 weeks ago.  Or the Hunter I saw at the National Library
yesterday.  Last time I saw another Alpine was 12 months at least.
Tiger......?? yeah I saw one once, just wish I could remember when.
