Modded to 300+ hp/torque, a real sleeper. Cop magnet. Minotla 100-400mm f4.5-6.7, most likely hanging off a Sony A37.

Brakes had daily surface rust given the humid climate east of the Mississippi. Originally a Pennsylvania car, bought from 2nd owner near Corning NY, imported to Canada. Heard British people called it a "bread van" - this angle kinda shows why. Sold in 2010. Basic Canon kit 18-55mm.

Yes, those are Beetle wheels, as in how to keep your expensive German car running on the cheap. AWD Haldex meant it was a hoot in the snow, as long as it wasn't too deep. Basic Canon kit 18-55mm.

The fence is still there in rural Ottawa. Spring came late in 2012. Has a sinister, dread-full vibe (to me), even lightened. Bokeh and background remind me of 40's noirs. Taken with long-sold Canon SX30 superzoom.
