BP - Hampton Court Service Centre, Hampton Court Way, East Molesey, Surrey December 1973

Cars queuing to get some precious gallons in during the fuel crisis of 1973. There's a terrific row of cars too - I recognise a few but I'll leave the experts to identify the others. The Capri, Austin/Morris 1100/1300 Estate and Morris Minor are obvious but that funky sports car has got me. The vinyl top car the man is standing by might be a Rover but I don't recall them with vinyl tops. Maybe a Fiat 124/131 beyond the Morris Minor. This site is still a BP garage today www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.401113,-0.3431005,3a,75y,338.35...
