Wow just checked the MOT history and it needed two tyres in 2010... other than that not a single advisory since 2006.

On 54k now.

No, someone in the nuclear industry.

The dog that designed the front bumper did a grand job 👍🏽

Went to Le Mans Classic over the weekend and seen alot of nice machinery. I was drooling over this XJ220 in the queue for Le Shuttle, my boyhood dream poster car of the early 90's. Never have I seen one actually been driven. Had a quick chat with the owner who was a really nice guy from up north and has had it for 20 years, must have deep pockets

And this DB5 at a service station in France

Mad to think furious customers demanded their deposits back because it was a V6 twin turbo and not a proper supercar engine Jaguar had promised.

saw a XJ220 at Newby Hall a couple of years ago, forgot how long they look.

That one look lovely (apart from the wheels)

Love an xj220

Just spotted in the MOT centre, overheard him saying he’s owned it for 21 years 😍

My dad was offered one for a 50% discount as they were desperate to shift it. He wimped out and said no.

tragic wheels though.

Went to Italy a few weeks ago for a wedding in Tuscany. Visited Montepulciano and came across these two...
Both in pristine condition.

That's drippy tip material right there

Close thread, it doesn’t get any better than that

 

[DaveDreads]

I bet more people have seen UFOs flying around than have seen F40's in the wild that wasn't a car show or club meet.

Ferrari, F40, in Red, in Tuscany, Italy, in the wild, just parked up. It doesn't get any better than that surely?

Hard to find a supra with a decent looking wheel.

Literally a wild Unicorn.

Maybe. I've seen one though. It was ages ago mind and almost at the start of this thread. I saw a Ferrari P4 once too.

Silver BMW M4 in Milton Keynes today with the reg plate 'I TRY'

[Matt Cup]

I’ve never seen a F40 but a 288 GTO did blast past me several years ago on a road to Holmfirth just past Dovestone Reservoir. My jaw hit the floor as they are rarer than rocking horse s**t.

 

[ForceIndia]

There’s a family in Farnham royal that used to own every special Ferrari. I once saw them drive out, in order a 288gto, f40, f50, enzo. With their Veyron bringing up the rear.

 

[Short Norman]

288gto, F40 and a La would be enough for me.

I'm not greedy.

First two absolutely plus a F50. The La does absolutely nothing for me though.

This earlier this morning, an RBW Sports (I know that now as I looked the plate up) obviously we know it as an MGB.

Absolutely beautiful, obviously, but... are those Lancia wheels diamond cut!?

The delta wheels were diamond cut. They look like aftermarket 17" ones but my Evo 1 had its original 15" wheels and they were cut faces.

 

[CrippsCorner]

Really, that's early for diamond cut innit, wonder what the first car to get them was.

Neighbours friend has just pulled up in a lovely old Jag.

We went to a clasic car show at Wortley Hall this afternoon and for a fiver each to charity it was a fantastic afternoon. Lots of really nice cars, a band playing, a bar and of course the weather 🌞. I even took a few pics for a change😂.

Few spots this weekend...

Didn't they have them (or very similar) in the 70s?
