The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

My mates just seen a purple pagani zonda, crashed in Suffolk!

 

[_Tom]

My mates just built and painted this.


Other than the roof vent I h'actually love it.

 

[Scrooge]

I wish I liked R8s

 

[cat171]

I've always liked them (and kind of want one) but the original one looks so dated compared to second gen.

 

[BGEarles]

I too don't like R8s', theres loads at my work.. Well, at least 7, theres 2 on my road too.. I just don't think their special enough.

Don't like that one at all to be honest. The wheels are nice, if they didn't have the coloured bolts, but that's about it for me!

Saw an old maroon Alfa 164 3.2 V6 Cloverleaf last night, I know it was a Coloverleaf as it had it written down the doors in like 20cm lettering :expressionless:

I've just seen something that made me laugh, a recovery truck that had broken down, getting recovered by another recovery truck!

I don't get that. What does special enough mean? Special compared to the equivalent car? I'd say they are at least as special as the equivalent 911, or gtr.

It's the same argument people had with the NSX. It'll be appreciated more and more for what it is as time goes by.

Mid engined V8/10 with an open gate Manuel shift, rear biased 4wd and a mega capable, friendly chassis that you can use every day? Awesome things imo.

 

[Poopensharten]

Agreed. Theres a guy in Canada that uses hos R8 every single day of the year, i believe its on well over 100k also.

Of the super cars, it strikes me as the friendliest to use!

 

[cat171]

Saw a mint 5 GT Turbo yesterday, white one on OZ Superturismo's, with a roll cage & no side decals, GTT reg on it too :up:
Also saw a black M635 CSi on some cross spoke BBS's, lovely!

Saw my first Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio during the weekend in Leeds town centre, I was in a restaurant eating and happened to look out the window as it was passing, was proper gunning it, sounded splended!

 

[v15ben]

I've seen one down by JCT Ferrari, properly nice looking and sounding car.

Saw a 4C Spider in Leeds this morning. Never seen one before!

 

[ForceIndia]

One of the doctors at our surgery runs a battered, lhd rs4 on German plates. It's damn cool. Also has a 993.

 

[v15ben]

Just seen this at my local ASDA. Bit low!

 

[Clio_fool]

I spotted a 205 gti the other night, looked pretty tidy too.

Im guessing its on 'air ride'

 

[v15ben]

I assume so as it sat very low indeed.
There are massive speed bumps on the road outside so I guess it'd need to be raised to get over them.

A friend just bought this after his X5 was written off. I think the dealer manager specced it and it wasn't for sale when he went it but he got it eventually.

Not sure what similarities is has to Waitey's old car but it's a f**king rocket ship. Red interior and a mental option list.

Same engine and drive train to my old one. They don't half go!

Just saw a yellow Lancia Integrale in Pompey city centre, looked awesome!

I randomly saw a dark blue one after work a while ago, it had Comp TH's on it & slightly bigger exhaust, it sounded ace, no f**ker was looking at it, but I sure was!! :hearteyes:

 

[Clio_fool]

For a 4 pot turbo they do sound good. I've not seen one on the road for years [emoji45]

A very nice yellow evolution intergrale on the M62 today. No photo as I saw driving alone.

License plate was 1 RUB.

snap...doubt it was the same car though.

 

[DaveDreads]

These two were out the back of the NEC today.

Also saw a Huracan spider but I was driving and couldn't take a photo.

There's a chap local to me that uses his yellow one to commute in summer. Proper car!

Saw it again today, reg 933 FOX, looked a bit tired and the yellow was very dull!

The one I saw was minty mint. Very cool looking cars but my god the interiors are a bit poor.

Lol the Delta did first come out in 79! Boxy was the style then.

 

[Mork of Ork]

No pic as I was driving but this morning I saw an old school electric milk float on an old X reg. You don't see many of those around anymore!

My mates new Triumph 2000 2.5l. Straight 6 goodness. Four of us went to the pub in it last night. It's awesome. The smell, the sound..i love it.

 

[Gally]

LL05LEE. Is it a Focus RS rep? If it not it is an unwrapped RS500 looked unreal in panther black with black wheels.

Registered dates are like 07 which is mental makes me think ST.

Mother fucker. Looked utterly brilliant in all fairness. Back wings and front wings all done. Proper replica and a genuine engine etc in fairness.

 

[Stay Puft]

Just saw this in Fratton, Portsmouth. Looked like the bat mobile and sounded insane!

 

[aucky]

 

[DannyR]

Saw this at the local VW last night.

Unsure if it's a concept as doubt it's something you can actually buy?

 

[v15ben]

They did sell a few XL1s. A bloke local to where I used to live in Milton Keynes had one. Was a bit strange seeing it in everyday traffic!
