Scottish porridge. Pretty well everything identifiable but nothing to get excited about. Maybe cream estate in 1st row between part hidden red saloon and 2 brown saloons - looks Volvo at first glance, but 2nd glance maybe Subaru?? |

“Scottish porridge. Pretty well everything identifiable but nothing to get excited about.” How very true! |

For me it is a Datsun. |

Indeed, 1978+ [B211]. |

Not sure about Datsun B211 idea - the bumper looks too big with rubber block ends. Our 78-ish version of B211 was 120Y estate [VB210], which had dainty little bumpers. But a possible wild card to play - High Road was set on and around Loch Lomond, so not far away from the nuclear sub bases off the Clyde such as Faslane, which in the 80s had lots of US service personnel based there, who often owned US spec cars with Uk plates during their tour of duty here. Maybe this is one on a day out to local event?? If we can't solve it, 3rd car in from top left corner - dark thing between another dark thing and a white Escort Mk3 - is a Corsair V4, so we could go for that instead. |

Sunny, but rather [VB310] to me |

That's what I was going to say |
◊ 2023-02-24 20:31 |
I'm happy with that. |

Ironically, of all the cars there, it's the only one you would find on this side of the pond, making it the least interesting to me. |

Sunny, not 120Y. UK brochures from 1979 refer to it as 'New Sunny'. Before 1980 facelift when it received square headlamps. |
