Few cars from Central London last weekend.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes...
A few snaps of various nice cars around London on Sunday.
So many rare, old and interesting motors around!

Some brilliant pictures there mate

I love a car spotting day in London, great shots.

 

[Jack-C]

Great pics!

Some money there!

Using a DB5 as a daily makes all other ballers look like paupers!

Apart from the guy using a Porsche 356 Speedster,
if that's original I can't even imagine the cost of getting that insured in London.

 

[MonacoDan]

Nice photos and some great cars!

 

[Addicted]

Some truly awesome cars in that list!

 

[Flat Eric]

Last one is the best by far!!!!

I watched the bloke reverse park the blue DB5 in that space and casually jump out!
The 356 was abandoned outside a cafe on the end of a very busy road.

Cheers for the comments guys.
My favourite must be that Bugatti at the top, just parked in a normal bay outside a shop.
Doubt that one was an original, but who knows.
Googled it and found a proper one recently sold at Bonhams - £430k!

Haha, cheers.
I had the same thought killing a few hours in London before meeting some mates.
Was not expecting stuff like Bugattis, Cobras, DB5s and everything else being used!

 

[Paul.M]

Some brilliant spots there, some lovely motors rolling around London.

 

[Fletcher]

Mmmmm red Chevy pickup.

 

[Mork of Ork]

Is it wrong that I'd have the yellow one in the middle in this pic?

Original Fiat 500s are cool little cars.

 

[Alan]

Some great spots there mate

 

[Ash']

Good spots that DB5 just oozes class.

 

[Oldskoolbaby]

The owners of the Bugatti, Aston and Alfa have just as much taste as money. The others have more money than taste. Some classy motors right there! The cobra rep looks tacky to me although I bet its a blast to drive.

A chap I know has just bought a 5.7 Hemi American truck thing. The sound it makes is unreal.

 

[BREMBO]

Because London.

Some brilliant cars, and nice photos you managed to get here. You should look up Alex Penfold. His work is all London based!

Boxster Spyder.
Thought it was a pretty rare thing!

 

[ColinG]

Boxster spyder is a rare car! I love them.

That 356 is just pure car p**n IMO. I'd have that over all the others. Would love to just cruise about in that, shades on etc

 

[Matt Cup]

Aston Martin DB5's > anything else on this thread!

Good pics though, which parts of London did you spot them?

The 356 was great and definitely being used regularly too.
Had all sorts of everyday bits casually abandoned in the footwells!

I've been following Alex Penfold on various media for years - great eye for a photo and posts some unbelievable cars. He's only 20 IIRC but has been around forever!

I spotted them in various places as I had a few hours to kill before meeting mates for dinner:
Mayfair - backstreets around Berkeley Square + off Park Lane.
Maida Vale - near Lord's Cricket ground.
Chelsea + Kensington - just took a Boris bike out around various back lanes and saw all kinds of stuff.
Also the area around South Kensington tube station always has some fun stuff around.
