not a car, but an owner.
went to stratford-upon-avon on thursday, and introduced myself to a lovely old gentleman wearing an mmoc jumper and cap at the checkouts in M+S :)
apparently he owns a Traveler.
anyone here?

I regularly spot this example in Dumfries. Unfortunately it's deteriorated a lot in recent years. A lovely car, potentially.

I spotted this one in Dumfries a few weeks ago.

I see this lovely example on a very regular basis in my local area.

I peeped at a gentleman driving a cream moggy in Halesowen t'other day, he pretended he hadn't noticed the crazy lady waving at him.

Yesterday I saw another smoke grey 1000, 1968 reg, and it's owner in Blackheath. Hello if you are here!!!
