Looks like Belmore road (I think its called) - I think I can make out that street sign says Homer st. Which would explain why - he could be coming home from Pickles at Kingsgrove, although that doesn't explain a front plate.

Not sure its even illegal - if its got a pink/blue slip (which a lot of them have), can't he legally drive it directly to the RTA to get it registered? I could be wrong, I'm not sure on the technicalities.

It's Kingsgrove Road and Homer St. Heading towards the M5.
If you took this today you drove past me. :P I drive one of those stupid purple and aqua buses you may see getting around there regularly, and our depot is down near the next set of lights.

Doubt it would have come from Pickles. Their auctions are usually held on Tuesdays. Though it could have been a 'fixed price' car, since BA's are going VERY cheap now.
