Plenty of roadside shrines on the precipitous winding roads up to the summit of Teide to remind you not to have too much fun  Have a great holiday

I have fond memories of Tenerife, Las Palmas and Gran Canaria.

All 3 looked very nice! Especially liked the originality of the blue CD  I only saw 1 carlton when I was in Berlin a couple of weeks ago, though, it was in pretty mint condition! 2.0 auto.

Rot free GTE manta/ GSI carltons their would be a market for them,although i guess the import cost would off set this,

colin at prestige vauxhall in birtley was at one time importing carlton and senators from spain for that reason .whether he made any money out of it is another thing but after seeing cars i can vouch for rot free status though interiors suffered with sun but since changeing for right hand it didnt matter

Went to Kosova and Albania a few years ago and it was crawling with Carltons, I reckon those cars in the pics look so good is because of the dry and warm climate as opposed to our climate.

I think that many countries in the EU don't put salt on their roads like we do, which must help immensely.
