Found this nice pic of a Mk1...

[Reverend Frog]

When i was perusing a very very nerdy blog about bus routes. i had my reasons...

Anyway, this pic was taken in May 1982 apparently, cracking quality and a nice GLS, by the looks of things. must have only been a year or two old. I doubt the owner had any rust to deal with at that point!

its not a rocco, looks more like a alfa

The silver one yes, but I think the Rev is talking about the one just sneaking into view ... certainly looks like a Mk1 to me.

That's the one. for some reason the picture contracted on the right-hand side: in the original there is more of the car visible.

Hmm, I honestley would be torn between the Sprint and the Rocco.

And the bus is a Plaxton Supreme IV on a Leyland Leopard chassis. I only know because I used to work for Plaxtons. Honest, I'm not a bus spotter. Please don't kill me or kick me off the forum.
