Probably a familiar sight to some, but new to me. Permanent exhibit at The Engine Shed Museum at Highley on the Severn Valley Railway. A 1961 Yukon (?) Grey 4-door saloon with roof-rack and 1960s luggage.

Also spotted from the train, a Trafalgar Blue Traveller intrepidly doing the 'tour' of West Midlands Safari Park.

Spotted this in Sainsburys car park in Matlock (Peak District) yesterday (Bank Holiday Monday) a slightly modified traveller, does it belong to anyone on here?
Also, not a MM I agree but a nostalgic classic nonetheless, in Matlock actively serving customers, a MK 1 Transit Ice cream van, anyone for a 99 with flake...................
Best wishes,
Mike.

Spotted on the Guardian, Then and Now a Traveller going round the old configuration of Piccadilly Circus in the Summer of Love in 1967. Cannot read the VRM though.
