Big in Japan
One lucky bastard on Ebay got this one before I could bid! :( I don't have any other information about Arrows in Japan except this brochure, if you know anything please share it here.

Another brilliant photo from reallyloud.co.uk this time it is a 1967 Singer Vogue in what it seems to be really good condition.

Flammable Area
I would give my left arm to be transported back in time to this place! ;) This has to be Ryton Assembly Plant in Coventry since Arrow production moved to Linwood, Scotland in 1969, this photo I believe was taken in 1967.
Lets start from front: The left-hand-drive red Sunbeam I believe is a Sunbeam Hunter which was for the European market (it could also be a Sunbeam Arrow which was for the North American market, but I doubt it). Behind it are bunch of right-hand-drive models, this is very interesting, they were building LHD & RHD models on the same line. In the background there is a brownish Humber Sceptre, and bunch of Wagons. Oh boy this place was on fire! ;)

Cortina Wide
1970 Hillman Hunter MKII with Lotus Cortina wide wheels. Photos are from Spottedlaurel: The owner said he had a few other interesting cars, including several Rover SD1s.
Well personally I think SD1 is such a boring car Arrows are so much more interesting! ;)

Somewhere in Auckland
From NZ Car Freak:
"Somewhere in Auckland From I presume this photo, scanned from a 1986 (this photo is older) issue of NZ Car, was taken somewhere on Auckland's vast motorway network, in maybe say 1979 or 1980? Plenty to see here! Early Chrysler Alpine, Daihatsu 360X, Mitsubishi Galant Colt, Morris Marina TC Coupe and various Commer PB/Dodge Spacevans are of particular note, but apart from that, I think this sums up late 1970s NZ motoring quite well!"
