Graham's Austin 1100 UVJ 129J sits on the car deck of MV Farringfrod as it plies across the Humber estuary working the 16.50 New Holland Pier to Hull Corporation Pier. Notice the copy of Steam World magazine on the parcel shelf of the 1100 partially obscured by Graham's Sony TC-2890SD cassette recorder with its microphone sitting on top. The BMW 728 parked in front was one of the marque's most prestigious models on offer at this time but this particular example had the less powerful non-fuel injected M30 engine producing just 167bhp. This green example was registered in Leeds and was last on the road in 1986.
