Pictures from the Road (pic heavy)

[Habitual]

For years, I have been taking pictures on my travels of interesting cars, modifications, plates, etc and with recently getting a FlickR account I thought I would share some of them.

They're not the highest quality - just different...

Some examples of nice parking:

All the gear - no idea...

Enjoy!

There are more piccies in my stories from the road set.

 

[Jamie16v]

Interesting collection of photographs. I think you've inspired me to start snapping on my travels.

 

[lewisredfern001]

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Good greif man. I thought I had some geeky car pics !!

Haha !

:rasp:

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Wow at the Ferrari P4!!

My favourite fezza of all time.

 

[RSteve]

Great thread, been considering making one like this for a while, as I occasionally snap random things while out on the road.

Will upload mine at some point, and get snapping too .

 

[Sanders]

Nice shots there mate

 

[andywa]

Great collection of pics.

 

[Englebert]

Some funny photos there! I think that car you don't know is a Panther of some kind, they're kit cars. Were mainly built to look like 'vintage' cars for weddings, i.e. a Rolls alternative on the cheap.

 

[Jamie_182]

interesting collection you have there pal....love that stealth ferrari!

 

[BREMBO]

Great pictures, intresting!

 

[jesus]

Was behind this in my bus the other day! Saw him get pulled over too, has a nice smashed windscreen.

Definitely not a Panther. Looks.... extravagent though.

 

[Mot!]

A few of those are in Cannock, the rat looks cars. They're everyday round here.

 

[Habitual]

Cheers all. It's nice to see that this has inspired some people to get snapping!

Those Rat cars are both Cannock, yeah - I work around there.

 

[NFox]

Haha you certainly do come face to face with some interesting cars/plates and interesting driving styles!

 

[Habitual]

Haha ^

Saw this at ASDA last night - Pimptastic!

[Mr Burns]

I'm pretty sure I know who owns the Beetle.

Some awesome/dreadful cars there.

 

[Chili Red]

Interesting pics

What a knobber, reversing onto that concrete thing. Shows it's not just women!

 

[James105]

Spotted at Silverstone end of last year!

 

[ste_brough]

Was that your Polo that got torched????

 

[v15ben]

Thats spectacularly bad taste.

I did get a funny picture of some woman absoloutley fast asleep in her car, but I took it off FlickR because I thought it was a bit harsh (although funny lol).

Pfft, she'll never know, post it up!

I keep seeing things on the road all the time but never think to take a pic!

[Marky_]

Good collection. I pass so much stuff i'd love to get pics of but usually i'm driving with my phone in my pocket!

flol, its such a strange hobby I quite like it.

 

[Short Norman]

As an off shoot from this you could start taking photos of people who park in disabled parking spaces (while they are still parking up). See how many you get before you get smacked by some chav (can you still use that word these days thanks to Plan B).

 

[mace¬]

Then expand to cylcists riding on the pavement or people causing any sort of public nuisance.

 

[Habitual]

Cheers guys. Funny you should mention that - I took a picture of a man in a van across about four spaces. A new hobby, you say?....

Excuse me, but your car is on fire. by Tom Cash, on Flickr

The last one - basically, he was sitting behind me for a good 10 minutes whilst his car seemed to be falling apart. He made no attempts to pull over and sort it out.... Weird...

 

[McGherkin]

FLOL at the last one. Must be trying to make it back to blighty with a wing down.

 

[GilesB]

Im sure it was the Harlequin Polo that Volkswagen 'made' as an Aprils Fools joke but got so many orders they out it into production.

Im sure it was the Harlequin Polo that Volkswagen 'made' as an Aprils Fools joke but got so many orders they out it into production.

I just looked more into it. They only made 3500 and only 113 got sold over here. In 2010 there were only 70 something left, so it's a pretty rare polo!

I saw that back in 2004.
