Another vehicle drives on to the deck of MV. Farringford prior to its 13.15 sailing from New Holland Pier to Hull Corporation Pier. The locally registered (Lincoln) black Vauxhall Viceroy seen here was just five months old and was last on the road in 1986 or 1987 so did not last particularly long at just five years! Not a well-remembered car, the Viceroy was a bit of an enigma in a number of ways and was not a sales success for Vauxhall then part of GM (Europe) with its other family members, the fastback Royale and the Carlton selling in much greater numbers.
