I grew up in a village near Teeside that was mainly populated by managers for ICI they had a choice of company car but all chose a Talbot Alpines SX in silver, On one 1960s development you could see about 8 of them parked outside identical houses. There was confusion in the car park after Swimming Club as all the children walked up to the wrong cars.
After this they all had Vauxhall Cavalier CDi s in gold except one in metallic blue, he was a dangerous rebel and was probably sacked.
My dad had a bright orange Hilman Hunter followed by a Austin Maxi.....I'm bringing this up 45 years later should I get therapy?
