I had started going for late-night walks during lockdown and spotted many of these classic cars and campervans parked under the eerie glare of streetlights. With the extension of the Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) due to start 25th October 2021, I knew many of these vehicles would undoubtedly get forced off the road. The decision to photograph them was prompted when I was forced to sell my cherished 20-year-old Fiat Punto because it failed to meet the emissions requirements. I also felt it was important to document them before they finally disappeared from the capital’s streets and part of our motoring heritage is lost. I find these older vehicles captivating. They have a charm and personality that very few modern cars have. There is definitely an element of nostalgia behind my project and I can’t help but think back to the early ‘80s and the first car I owned, a Mini Cooper. Photographing at night I prefer using a tripod and working with ambient light from streetlamps or lights from passing cars. Artificial light transforms the mundane space inducing an eerie, dreamlike quality to the images and creating an air of mystery. Where possible I tried to capture solitary, isolated vehicles in deserted streets, and devoid of people. This was to convey a feeling of quiet solitude. I think it is a positive move to clean up London’s air and reduce pollution, but unfortunately it also means it’s the End of the Road for many classic vehicles. London has always been a fantastic place to spot older classic vehicles and it is sad to see them disappear. I got a lot of mileage from my End Of The Road project. It was featured on Creative Review, Creative Boom, the Londonist, BBC Radio London and published in French Society magazine.
