Spotted one of these yesterday in Horsforth (nr Leeds), Koening Mercedes 560 SEC, was parking up as I drove past so gutted I didn't manage to snap a picture, but it was identical to the below but in purple:

 

[Saner]

We couldn't work out what the motor was parked behind it though, any takers? We were thinking Opel.

Correct, Opel Commodore, late 60's Early 70's

 

[S-JM]

Does anyone know what this is, I know it's a Toyota

Going back to this spot just came across this part in VisioRacers latest vid, these Soarers sound VERY NOICE!

 

[Stay Puft]

Outside the Pancras hotel. The brakes on the Maserati were ridiculous.

Customers today, it's all of my actual dream cars in one, also a Z3m, Panmera and Cayenne Turbo

Awesome though, is that a 3000GT?

Yup, the only car you'd buy on Gran Turismo but never in real life.

About 9K if you proper looked through the used car show, not a bad car to start the game with!

I think it's a reworked Golf R32 engine in there, I just love the look of them!

The pictures don't do it justice. It is literary minter than mint.

Stolen that abandoned Evo yet?

 

[cat171]

That Mini's awesome! I reckon it's had a full resto at some point / recently though.

It's actually red again and had a full repaint. I was chatting to him the other day. Just needs a new clutch and she's lovely again.

More than likely mate. If anything, it would have just been done. Even the interior looks brand new.

Spotted today in Otley, Leeds!

 

[Waitey]

So cool

 

[Short Norman]

Just seen an Audi Q7 on the M18 towing a trailer with an Impreza on. The licence plate on the Impreza was N555BAT. :wink:

No photo, I was driving.

Some from today

 

[Short Norman]

saw a Ferrari F12 dropping some lad off at my daughters prom the other night. He dropped him off then blipped the throttle the noise was immense, it sounded better than the current F1 cars. There was also a couple of California's there as well (oh and one lad getting dropped off in a helicopter)

What's the appeal of these exactly? not saying it isn't cool.

Once did some work on a guys house fitting a compressor for his car ramp inside his garage. Amongst the Wraith, Slr Mclarren 722 and countless other nice cars he had one of these. He showed us around and was most excited about a Citroen exactly like this.

 

[Stay Puft]

Saw a Bugatti outside a hotel near Hyde Park yesterday, as well as a bright hellow Huracan.

I believe the Bugatti was this exact one:

 

[cjgower]

Cool car but the colour makes it look like a cream leather sofa with wheels.
