I'd like to apologise to everyone else in the #Highlands. I tempted the rain gods by putting my washing out on the line.

I'm not really a car enthusiast. However, there are a few cars that I find aesthetically pleasing. There are also some vehicles that have some romance about them, because of their association with movies or TV shows.
The Volvo P1800 fits both categories. 😃 I saw this one in Inverness on Sunday. It was in fantastic condition considering it was possibly 60+ years old.
If I could choose, I'd have one in white, just like Roger Moore as "The Saint".

The white Volvo P1800 as used in "The Saint" TV show. It had the iconic "ST 1" registration plate.

UK vehicle registration plates have local memory tags, identified with two letters on the number plate. One used for the Inverness area is "ST".
Although, the Volvo P1800 used in "The Saint" TV show actually had the registration "71 DXC", for filming it was shown with "ST 1", signifying the Saint.
It is therefore a nice coincidence that "ST 1" would have been the first number plate registered for Inverness.

There is a house in Inverness called "Costa Fortune". 😂 😂
