That's the b****cks!

 

[Pep]

Love that!
My mate who built an R33 GTR with 1000bhp has just got hold of a R32 GTR that he's started playing around with, can't wait for a spin out in it! His brother is the one who has a 9k miles Bayside Blue R34.

Just saw an old red Mini & a white one buzzing around, both with roll back roofs etc, they had some steering wheel looking sticker on the door, plus the red one had a plate ending in LDN (I didn't catch the white one) no blue one though, bummer!
I looked them up online & they're part of an Italian job tour

 

[v15ben]

Nice car, sounded epic, but that plate is a shocker! (I definitely lost btw!)

 

[CrippsCorner]

Oh dear, so chav

Parked outside work last week. Was mint.

Alpina D4 Bi Turbo on my way into work today, in that colour too. So cool, certainly caught my attention more than an M4.

Alpina's have always been cool, apart from the ones with the big daft Alpina decals down the side.

I'd love a D3 touring as our family wagon.

This one @cat171 ? Saw it outside Selfridges and the Lambo in Brixton last night. The Lambo had a dodgy sparkly silver paint to it.

These chrome wraps look blinkin' awful. Proof indeed that money can't buy you taste.

There is a gold Panamera in Wolverhampton with black door handles, saw it and said the same thing money can't buy taste

Saw one of these coming up behind me earlier down a dual carriageway so I gave the cup some welly to see how quick the F355 is. Actually not as quick as I thought it would be.
It did sound amazing at high revs though. Even better than my fatty induction kit

Doubt there was any effort, a 172 in a straight line is slower than a week in the jail!

you obviously aren’t driving it properly then.

Black Sapphire Cosworth last week in Edinburgh. Let it pass a few times on a dual lane bit to get a good look at it. Just mesmerising!

 

[yeecup]

Latest one from footsoldiers collection. New turbo s . Has carbon wheels. Apparently he has a new gt2 coming which is getting painted in racing martini livery by Porsche

I often see a brown diesel Bentley Bentayga on my morning commute. That defines 'money can't buy taste!'

I work off Sloane Avenue, it's all Range Rovers, Bentleys, Cayennes. All pointless, all vulgar, and all make me more angry than they should.

I saw a silver Merc Pagoda the other day, old H reg one with a silver roof, I've probably mentioned it before, but I love it!

I saw one by my work the other month, it was the same one I used to see about 20 years ago locally! It still looked the same, slammed OZ Super T's etc. It still had a bloody dump valve on it too!

 

[cat171]

Just saw a white Nissan GT-R. Still the b****cks, still massive!

 

[CrippsCorner]

Spotted one of these for sale just outside the mother in laws house, a rare sight indeed! Only 140 made iirc?

 

[cat171]

I saw one of those once, a few years ago now though.

 

[Jesse James]

Saw one of these would have always liked a rhd

There are a couple of old Mini's buzzing around pretty local to me, one red with gold Minilites & roof. The other one's a pale coloured van (I think it's grey) I think it's roof chopped & slammed with wide arches etc (I only got a glimpse)

 

[_Tom]

Nice 650S I've just taken delivery of for shipment.

 

[Stefan.]

Lovely colour

Roof looks all different shades though, im guessing its the paint in different lights

It's just the light as you say. It has almost a gold metallic which really pops under light.

Saw this which a little different

I think it's an ex Red Bull promo car ?

 

[Jesse James]

Good spot, pretty cool if it still has the fridge in the back. Good for the weekly shop

Just saw a minty fresh looking Mercedes W108 in a metallic red colour, LHD with black & silver UK plates etc. It was lovely!!!

 

[Stay Puft]

Where did you see that Redbull thing? I used to see it quite frequently but can't remember where!

Hmm, sure there is one in Portsmouth, not quite the same place!

Yeah would've been around Portsmouth mate, They used to come into Mercedes when I worked there and the surrounding dealerships quite a lot - always nice as it was scantily dressed young ladies giving out free red bull ??

there's a thread on cutters by a guy who bought one and it came with numerous issues and he ended up rejecting it. The thread is now a JLR bashing thread.

I love the way they look (although I hate SUV's)
