A very sorry looking split screen moggy in a pub car park in Nottinghamshire
It’s a late example dating from August 1956 and currently running a 948cc engine
( the photos shown were only taken two days apart )

What does the sign in the windscreen say?

It's a warning to the local toerags that CCTV covers the whole car park an the local schools have been informed of youths damaging cars with a picture of one of them.

Pics taken from opposite side so drivers side could be just rust on top. Passenger side not fully in view.
Why doubt the OP?

No upset Les,
just a discussion. Sometimes pictures can be very deceiving. Isn't a shame when you see them left out and then vandalised by scrotes.
