The 80s and 90s don’t feel like that long ago, yet the cars we drive have changed enormously in that time.
The Ford Escort, Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Cavalier, Austin/MG Metro and Rover 200 were among the best-selling models back then.
These photos capture those cars and other vehicles on the streets of Sheffield between 1980 and 1999.
They also show the changing face of the city during that time, with old pubs and lost landmarks pictured.
As you can see from these photos, cars back then were certainly a bit boxier.
But it was a lot cheaper to get around back then, with a litre of petrol costing just 28p in 1980, rising to 61p by 1996.
Did you have a favourite car from that era?
