Nice pictures David.
Though am both in tears and enraged at that poor magnum having been vandalised.
Surely she would have been a great motor with life left on her or at least a great donor. But after a year or so this interior will be as dead as the exterior.
Such a shame.
Come to think of it, the first AEs will soon be turning 26. They are slowly starting to appear on the classic scene, as do the first FHs.

Junior…

There was a Magnum parked up in the next village to us, a 6 X 4 and English registered in a similar condition, although not so vandalized …I eventually got around to going there with the camera to get some snaps but it had gone. Speaking to a neighbor he said the Mayor of the village had told the guy to get rid of it as it was an eye sore, the guy himself had moved on, so the mystery and history of that particular Magnum does remain…a mystery !!

Hi Fergie, Just trying to remember who ran 6x4 Magnums in England,was it R.H from Nottingham? had single tyres on drive axles. Good shot of the Saviem in the snow mate, Cheer’s Pete

Pete…it was red mate…no name…it was in a fenced off area in his garden, cab half tilted, bits missing, wheels off…looked like it was being used for parts to keep another running although I didn’t see another one…definitely twin wheels on the rear bogie though, and Renault engine not a Mack…
Wish I’d got there earlier…must keep a camera handy in future !!!
