oooh that is a fantastic photo.

I am going to attempt it - but my skills are limited nowadays.  So dont wait for a result, it may take days :) or minutes.

You should get some smashers.

Looking up that registration plate, it seems the two-letter prefix was used from 1903 to the mid 1930s, and that RS was the area prefix for Aberdeen.  I'm not an expert on these things so someone more knowledgeable might prove my googling wrong!

Great photo!
