[YorkshireKyle]

Is his name is Russell and does he like sliver cars

Possibly, how did you guess?

 

[Stiamh-JM]

See that quite often around Cas - he drives it like a madman!

 

[PP200t]

Saw a car I haven’t seen for a while tonight, sadly no pics because I was driving.
a white Ford Probe 2.5v6. Didn’t think rheee would be any still going. Sounded lovely but looked terrible. Could’ve been a much better car but wasn’t.

I had a black 2.5 Probe back in 2005, absolutely loved it. Shame it was rotten as f**k

A few from my travels

 

[Greiggsy]

Saw both of these on our travels the other week

 

[NTG999]

That are usually a nice looking car. That one has definitely been through the gimp my ride workshop though.

 

[ForceIndia]

A standard looking rx7, must be a good 10 years since I last saw one. Best looking jap car ever for me

 

[McGherkin]

No pics because I was driving, but yesterday I saw an absolute beauty of a Mazda 323 Turbo 4x4, minty mint and in this silver;

(Possibly that car actually)

Rare homologation special, only 500 built and 10 left on the road. Had to roll down the window and compliment the guy at the lights, proper 80s retro.

 

[OssPoop]

Someone I worked with had one of those back in the day. I've never seen another one.

 

[McGherkin]

They're like rocking horse s**t it seems. I love the DOHC TURBO on one side, and FULL TIME 4WD on the other. Just in case anyone didn't know it was turbooooo.

 

[thecrim22]

Last one is seen was turned into a rally car and could have been mistaken for a lancia with the rust on it

 

[terryc101]

Saw a Lancia Beta yesterday that was in pristine condition, only knew what it was from a reg check.

Singers, Singers everywhere...

Along with Marino Franchitti and a ton of camera equipment and a camera car covered in scaffolding...they looked to be making some sort of PR video at the circuit today.

Also, WTAF, since when do cars that look like this come with a manual 'box? Love it.

It's that the dallara?

 

[MarkCup]

It's that the dallara?

Yup. I had no idea what it was, never seen it before. Grabbed my attention because of the manual shift inside.

It's the supercar for me with that...if only I could get past my history with Ford's 2.3 Ecoboost

Had two unexpected visitors this week… an absolutely mint 288 GTO that my mate brought out of storage for it’s annual MOT

Followed by this beaut of a GT3 RS :

 

[massivewangers]

288 GTO is stunning. One of my favourite Ferraris.

I love the Aston Lagonda, especially it's proper 70's retro-futuristic dash.

 

[Ex-User (72296)]

Fiero F40.. just MOT’d after 14years.

Absolutely love Fulvia’s.

I was in Italy a couple of years ago and spotted this is a car park:

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Spotted a MKIII Zephyr in ASDA yesterday being driven by an old boy

Didn't wanna get a pic because he was sat in it, had the obligatory metal AA badge on the front grille as per any car pre 70's it seems Crazy to think someone takes a car older than my dad to the shops
