The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

Seen this a few times before, never noticed the brakes. Were these standard?

 

[OssPoop]

Yep brakes were standard fit.

Seen this a few times and believe @Aaron.. Spotted it recently going to the aquarium as well, looks so good!

No idea how they get up a curb without absolutely thrashing the car though

 

[Willo40]

I love them, but always felt the exhausts look a bit awkward.

 

[MLB]

As do the headlights, doors, front bumper and bonnet but I think it really adds to their character, especially in a funky colour like this.

I spotted a bright orange one today out and about. Bloody love a TVR.

I would love a Chimaera but I would definitely need an indoor parking space and fully kitted out garage to own that first

Not overly interesting but the owner has been using this a lot this summer, seen it loads of times.

Midas kit car, based on running gear from a Mini/Metro I believe?

My old neighbour had one of these rotting on his driveway a good few years back. Odd looking thing.

What is this?

 

[R3k1355]

It looks like one of the MX5 kits?

f**king ugly, that’s what it is.

It’s based on a 1960 MGA according to the reg.

Got a soft spot for those, lovely.

I'm not one for taking good photos, but recently we drove through europe, stopped off to view some palace in Hungary & happened on some classic car show in the grounds.

 

[Oggy997]

Clocked this in my mirrors on the way to that palace, easily identified - though it was seemingly not going there as we didn't see it.

Spotted this today, what a beautiful motor it is. Lovely from every angle!

(Unsure if the V8 or A45 2.0 unit)

Same, they’re a lovely looking car. Unfortunately this one was an auto by the sounds of it.

I spotted a black phase 1 172 at Meadowhall today. Can't remember the last time I saw one.

I like these, but isn't that a weird caliper placement on the rear? Looks like it's fallen down.

I’ve not seen a configuration like that before, does look odd.

Was it at the top of the ramp to the top car park? I saw that too if so.
