Well spotted! I'm in Coalville quite often but haven't come across that one before. Definitely a 7x4, the wheels suggest 764, but I could be wrong looking at the front seat head restraints - maybe someone has fitted different wheels?

Regards, John.

NB Just a thought - you do have the owner's permission to post the photo? It's not normally 'done' to positively identify cars or precise locations in this section. J.

I just checked the plate and it is a 740, I agree you should at least blank the numberplate as if I found my car in this section with the plate on it I would asking for the photo to be removed.

Did not think about the plate, just assumed people do not drive around with them covered up so whats the harm.

Shall i cover all the other cars plates up? Ok covered the plate up to keep the paranoid happy.

Find it really annoying when folks cover the plates on cars for sale, pointless.

Yeah, those look like ones from a Vauxhall Carlton.
