At a show last weekend, China blue gti 😍. I bought one brand new in 98 and my mum used it for 2 years after I fucked off to Canada. Great little cars.

Always wanted one for my first car, but I couldn't get insured on one. Almost went for a 106 Quiksilver and ended up with a Saxo VTR. Great cars (at the time )

A dump from the last few weeks

Your mom and dad look like they were in the cannonball run !! 🤣

This probably doesn’t count as it was at Goodwood, but there was Carrera GT present.

Rolled up to a PCGB meet in January too. Stunning thing.

 

[hopgop1]

Anyone know what this is? Some sort of Honda and had a K24 plate. Not a clue what it is though.

 

[McGherkin]

It's a CR-X Del Sol

 

[S-JM]

I wouldn't have a clue if it wasn't for the early Gran Turismos 😂

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Yep, a Del Sol. My mum has had two of them.

Very noble of you to post this spot

 

[Trainerbrow]

Went to a local show today, some lovely motors there

Petition to ban car meet / car show pictures from this thread.. It's just not the same when you see something in a place where you expect to see something.

 

[Jamess182]

Anyway..

Terrible photo but quite fancy one of these within the next couple of years maybe. Such a nice toy for late night summer cruises and the odd track day.
Looks like a matchbox car out here, made my Golf look like a Dodge Ram!

They're foookin expensive here though. A decent one will set you back a good £20k but the resale value will always be there too, so it's basically.... free? Not sure about the man maths there.

Isn't that Uno Turbo the one that was on Car SOS?

Not sure, but I haven't seen one on the road for a good 15 years.

It literally says CAR SOS on the wheels.

It was auctioned off on one of those giveaway sites with some of the money going to a charity.

Few spots from the last week, M5 sounded Biblical. Proper loud system on it

I like! But I did wonder it was that old? It's not actually, it's a 1987 (so at least they did get an older reg plate for it) I still like it though.

Very tidy E type this afternoon.

Sierra Sapphire rotting on a driveway local I spotted this afternoon. Assume it’s a genuine Cossie.
Looked rough, but must still be worth some money.

I'd say it's a real one (no Sapphire badge on the black triangle bit above the door handle though) It's currently sorn'd. I think I'd rather one of these and cash in the bank, instead of a three door.

Same, I've always preferred the Sapphire. From street view, it's been sat in exactly the same place since at least 2009.
