I spotted a new Ford Edge this morning, not a massive fan of mpv's but it looked pretty good in white and had large alloys.
Not bad at all.

They are pretty nice in white, a Sport in grey though... :hearteyes:
The Sport has 22" wheels btw.

 

[Ian_182]

Yep it turned my head, looked really nice @Mork of Ork .

 

[DaveDreads]

Not exactly a rare spot, but still cool none the less.

f**k all else is in this thread so I wouldn't worry mate.

Just a couple from this week. Sunshine brings a lot of classics out and about! Particularly liked this Porsche

Also spotted Ali G's Audi R8... slight upgrade from the bright yellow R5

 

[Mork of Ork]

I love that Porsche. Brown with an orange interior, you don't get more 70s than that.

 

[CrippsCorner]

Audi's number plate is terrible

Unreal isn't it [emoji849] definitely not to my taste!
...but hilarious it even exists

Could only be topped by. WE11ARD

I've seen BE11 END on a yellow TVR... but maybe it was only on show plates.

They didn't make any TVR's in 2011 so probably fake plates.

One of the landlords in my place has PK55 OFF

@DaveDreads a friend has just been on a roadtrip right across the whole of Europe with his C30, another C30 and one of those Mustangs.

They got through some serious amounts of fuel that week! :confounded:

 

[Short Norman]

Look at this TT/R8

 

[Short Norman]

I also spotted about five Range Rover Velars yesterday going north on the M5. All on trade plates.

 

[BobbyMoore]

Ferrari testarossa can't work out edition. Tunbridge wells area
Purple phantom with white walls, will admit I love this thing. Spotted M25 near chertsey
Phantom hurse? Strangest thing I've ever seen up north I think I was near Sheffield

 

[Stevef175]

So this arrived at work today...

That's cool as f**k. Shame about the wheels.

That's why it's with us, trying to source something more suitable or perhaps make these a little more suitable.

Saw a yellow Testarossa looking Ferrari the other day but it had some kind of wide kit on!? Looked almost dimma like. Was being followed by a beautiful e-type coupe too.

 

[Mork of Ork]

A Testarossa is wide, it's the inspiration for those kits. I doubt it had a body kit.

Sorry I should have been more descriptive, it didn't have standard testarossa bumpers/spoiler etc. It might not have been one, but was certainly a Ferrari with those trademark vented sides.

Trying to find something similar on google.

 

[dajones]

Didnt koenig have a play with the testarossa?

Saw a BMW 1M the other morning in a gun metal grey type colour I thought they only came in orange white and black. Looked bloody lovely anyway and to top that had a tidy looking blonde bird driving it.

 

[Clio_fool]

There are a few 1M reps about. Strangely that BMW would sell the arches etc for people to do this. I saw a bird in a convertible with the full 1M kit on. It looked great.

 

[Adamm.]

Ah didn't even consider it might be a rep haha. Yeah did look lovely though and avoids the 1M premium I guess.

Saw a very similar one in Leeds yesterday, grey with the red accents. Not too sure about it personally, looks a bit cheap IMO.

Saw a Sierra XR4x4 in Leeds yesterday too. Not seen one in probably 10 years!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I'm always amazed at how matt wraps/paint can cheapen even the most premium of cars.

That is f**king dreadful.

Oh I see right. Could it have been a 348? They were the predecessor to the F355.

They did but they didn't have the side strakes.

Absolutely, Jesus that looks shite. Normal black and it'd be hardcore, such a shame...

Sitting behind this at the lights a week or two ago, couldn't believe my eyes! Not the best car I've ever seen in the wild, but the best I've actually got proof of seeing!

 

[Gally]

They look so average as a conv. As a coupe they're pretty much the best looking car ever made.

I totally agree! Very few cars are as pretty!

Mental that they only have something like 240bhp and no power steering!

It's the 8C he's spotted, not the 4C dude.
