The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

Mine went to the scrapper 2005

Many still on the go over in the EU zone but left hookers obvs. Guess climate has a lot to do with it. Although it's strange that so many R5GTT's have survived here and almost no 19 16vs. Any other countries that have nice climate that drive on the same side? Cheap imports maybe?

Cyprus would be the best bet.

I'm importing a 22B from Cyprus currently

Couple today...

A 1.6 GTI languishing on a driveway. Was pretty green. Looks like it's been there a good while:

GR Yaris in the Toyota storage near where my work vans are stored:

 

[P-Co]

An old Pontiac Firebird yesturday, nice to see but shame it's been sat for 10 years

 

[FatRS]

I recognise the plate on the blue 205. Possibly from a Max Power car?

It's definitely in a Max Power era font!

Spotted this in my street, never seen one but a very cool wagon. DVLA says a Nissan Stagea...

Yeah big estate car with skyline running gear, can even get them with rb26 and 4x4 too

Drive past this quite frequently in cambridge. Always makes me feel a little sad. Been there for a couple of years at least.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

That's a lot of money to leave rotting on the driveway these days!

Was it crashed and just left there or what?

 

[Gally]

Couple of spots today. One stupid, pointless and overpriced. The other is a Racing Puma.

Something not right about that FRP. Not sure if gen.

Is there a phone number where we can report this too? Surely there are laws preventing this.

 

[CrippsCorner]

Yeah wtf that cannot be 'parked'

There's a Delta Integrale rotting away in someone's front garden near where I've just moved to, not as bad as that NSX though. I need to get a photo at some point.

 

[PP200t]

There’s an evo ive seen on a drive not far from me which is covered in moss and looks neglected. Some of the cars people leave on their drive rotting is criminal!

I don't have etis access to check anymore sadly. It's a bit rough around the edges but it looks like a real one in person.

I've just checked on etis and it is a genuine FRP.

 

[Gally]

Wow. Can't be many V reg ones either.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Couple more today. The first black GR Yaris I've seen (looks really good in person) and a Meg Trophy:

 

[CrippsCorner]

Didn't know what the hell I was following earlier, until I got closer. Must be quite a rare thing?

Leaf Nismo...

AutoExpress article says there were no plans for a UK release. It was on a UK 70 plate.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Loads this week, but always the way in these parts:

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Couple more from earlier:

 

[Big Toe]

That G wagon with the big B, bad boy bonnet and holes in it is absolutely tragic. Someone will have paid a fortune for the honour of looking like a tw@t too

 

[Short Norman]

All those belong in a PL clubs training ground car park

either that or the sea 😂😂

 

[Krarl]

Thats a Brabus G63

They all look like that and are ALL driven by absolute pedos

 

[Mork of Ork]

That Brabus G Wagen must have cost a fortune and looks straight out of 1997 Max Power/Fast Car.

 

[Marc.]

All G’s are horrendous. The Brabus versions even more so.

You can put me in their too if it means I can drive round in an Aventador or Huracan. Wouldn't drive the other stuff, but would happily have any of the Lamborghinis.

All G’s are horrendous. The Brabus versions even more so.

Horrendous, but somehow quite charming at the same time in my experience. Would like to drive the current one, but thought the old G63 was quite amusing in an old Land Rover sort of way.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

More today. They love the Urus it seems, they're everywhere. See loads of Rolls Royces too. You can see why manufacturers are going for the grim big grills and totally over-the-top look, as this lot lap it up.

 

[P-Co]

A few from last week and today, not a fan of the bodykit on the CRX though reminds me of the old game Juiced

 

[Panda.]

Absolute hero. In Castle Donington last night.

I remember a friend of mine buying a Micra of that era from an auction for £25. It even had MOT I think. Those were the days.

Putting me to shame. 😂

Not even a slight tickle down there.

 

[Krarl]

I don't think its fair that @massivewangers is in Dubai, all those cars are the equivalent to an A class over here 😂

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

It's ok, be probably doesn't think much to your car either 😉 I'm the same to be honest. They don't do much for me, but it's still nice to see one out in the wild!

It is ridiculous how common that stuff is. What is interesting is just how strong Lamborghini are out here. They probably outnumber Ferraris at least five to one.

Same applies to Bradford high street tbh 😂
