#24 - a Yellow Car or two!

Yellow car owners have rallied in support of a vehicle blamed for ruining tourists' photographs in a picturesque Cotswold village.
A convoy of 100 cars has driven through Bibury in an act of solidarity towards Vauxhall Corsa owner Peter Maddox, 84.
Mr Maddox has come under fire for parking his car outside his cottage in Arlington Row.
Tourists have complained that it "ruins" the view and, earlier this year, the vehicle was vandalised.

Not my image but worth posting for the title and interest.

Tourists who would vandalise seem like the perfect visitors...NOT !!
This is a perfect image for yellow, Chris

LOL, that's awesome! While I dislike the vandalism, I can imagine (as a photographer) that a bright yellow car would look quite out of place in the Cotswolds. If I were there on vacation, I wouldn't like it in my photo.

cool story. We used to have a very yellow car. It got hit several times and the other driver always claimed, "they didn't see it!"

Perfect for No. 24 and I like all the activity too. Thanks for including the information.

Wow, that is quite the story. Ridiculous behaviour on the part of tourists.. they don't want real life intruding on picture postcard fantasy shots!
