Spotted my old car on Google street view!
This is me in my old 827 manual coupe in 2009. (Shows how old Google street view is) I remember giving way to this weird van with a big camera on its roof and Google written on it, but I didn't know it took my picture!

Just noticed that, they did come badged as the Vauxhall Astra ENVOY but I haven't seen many about.BennyVitesse wrote:A van? Very odd, its normally a UK registered but Opel badged Astra.

Re: Spotted my old car on Google street view!
They updated the streetview pictures round here so that my 820 and the Skoda with the missus driving have disappeared. I retraced all possible routes to work, no sign of the Sterling (I can even see my work car park but I'm not in my usual spot).

Re: Spotted my old car on Google street view!
This got me thinking, I have only had the 800 since November so street view around my way shows the Kia on the drive, after digging out the log book to find out the previous owners address I found it
Here is the 820 in Coventry with the X-Type that he bought to replace it with.

Re: Spotted my old car on Google street view!
Thank you, I noticed that the picture is copyright November 2012 which is interesting as I picked it up on the 4th (I think), plus the Jag is parked exactly where it was when I picked it up, so that was probably taken while I was sitting on a train on my way up there.Charles827si wrote:The 800 looks nicer
