Went to the Carding Shed in Holmfirth for breakfast.

Spotted this beaut in their garage

Carding Shed is on my doorstep Matt, however I've never been.

Do you live near or is it a ride out ??

It’s pretty good there to be honest, food is decent and it’s always busy. They have some good events on too at times.

And no not local, it’s a nice drive over Saddleworth past Dovestones for me

That's weird, was just watching the Air trailer in another thread. Is this the same model?

I think that’s a 930 turbo. The one I saw was a 964.

 

[NickReilly063]

930 Turbo - The one Matt posted is a Bad Boys 964 Turbo without the split rims.

Both Great cars - 930 above may only have a 4 speed gearbox.

That's local to me but not been back for a few years. Do they still have the Aston Martin Lagonda in there?

Nope, there was no Aston was there.

They did have a Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am in the workshop though

It looked big, but then when I pulled up next to it, it looked similar length to an M2.

 

[Gally]

I have worked on some newer ones but this was cool. Wheel fitment could be more oem.

Auto box and felt like it would pull your face off.

 

[Gally]

@Cub.

That green!

[YorkshireKyle]

So far I've seen a green one like that and a purple one

I don't think Alfa did a bad colour on the 4Cheese. They all look brilliant

I'd have the gold one

 

[YorkshireKyle]

I'd have the gold one

Of course you'd choose the gold one Terry

 

[OssPoop]

My mot man is into his scoobies.

He has a wagon parked up too. Unfortunately they've been sat there years as he never has any time for them.

 

[Cookson]

I'd have the gold one

Jewish Racing Gold?

Lovely GT4 in the work carpark last week

Is that a street fighter one?

 

[Stefan.]

Is that a street fighter one?

Not gonna lie, no idea what you mean

 

[R3k1355]

It's a Mitsubishi bud

 

[gavinf91]

err.. there’s a zero fighter one, but not that

 

[Cookson]

Some badass AMG of sorts on the M42

 

[gavinf91]

Gangsta

 

[Gally]

Zero fighter was actually what I was thinking of. I detailed one years ago I just couldn't remember what it looked like.

It’ll have been a white or silver Evo 6 with some Ralliart graphics and a body kit, very rare cars. I believe @adamlstr ’s dad had an Evo 6 Xtreme which is the UK imported version.

 

[James]

 

[McGherkin]

This can’t be standard. So horrifically fake.

 

[gavinf91]

Yeah that seems to be a thing in Transporter world. Looks like an ABT one as well with the parking sensors which will have cost about 2 grand.

 

[McGherkin]

2 grand?! f**k me!

 

[Not a Diesel!!!]

Saw one of those Mk3 RS Red Edition.

Looked good in Red. Not worth the premium.

Nice to see someone using in winter months. Although looked showroom clean.

Absolutely nothing to look at, the Mk2 RS would have been stunning in that red, had they ever done it that colour!

 

[OssPoop]

Spotted a mitsubishi 3000 gt last week. Values seem to finally be creeping up on them looking on ebay.

 

[R3k1355]

From what I remember they're horrendous to work on and were almost exclusively owned by drug dealers.

...ish. The 'Extreme' was built here, using the same bodywork bolt ons, and 18-inch Work VS-II's, by Ralliart UK in Dudley. Only 26 of those ever existed, no idea how many are left now! My Dad's old one is still with the same chap that bought it in 2008, a couple of villages over, I don't think it ever sees daylight.

That black one above, is just a black V GSR by the looks of it. Might have a VI front bumper, going by the oil cooler duct at the front. It won't be around for long if it keeps getting used in damp salty conditions though.

[McGherkin]

I don’t normally like Audis, but there is one I’ll make an exception for.
