The Cubans drive old cars!

You sure it's Cuba? Looks like Klingon plates on that Jeep.

It's a Landrover. Number plate states it is Iranian - I presume it got
there before the revolution.

Interesting all right. First I looked at the cropped pictures, and I
thought they were both pretty fabulous to me.

It was when I looked at the full sized pics that I decided: that
Landrover with the brick wall behind looks exactly like my M3 would've
seen it. Deja-vu.

I guess owning a Leica is a bit like driving a Rolls Royce: if you have
to ask how much the petrol consumption .... (and no, I never bought
mine, I had it given to me when I was 14; neither the giver nor I had
the slightest idea of what a scoop that was until I took it to
nightclasses at the studio in the nearest town).

The red car is. But.. It's no Pontiac as the guy is guessing.
It's a 1959 Plymouth Fury. I thought the M8 pix were noticeably
better than the other.. A good bit sharper. But the other EP1
is not too bad.
