The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

[Mork of Ork]

I saw this on a guy's drive in Garforth the other day, you don't see many these days so it's a same to see it in this state.

My mate brought his MG ZT over I beleive it's called typhoon blue? One of less than 20 I think, his front bumper had a knock and he managed to source another in good condition so we swapped them over (hence the missing number plate)

A few from the Leeds Cruise meet tonight:

 

[Ex-User (72296)]

Sounded lovely. On it’s way to Top Gear.

 

[Ex-User (72296)]

Just saw a red Focus RS, reg was 99M or similar

 

[ChrisR]

Saw a red one yesterday as well, plate was RS18 LTD

 

[OssPoop]

They do look good in red. Wasn't that the runout model, @MarkCup?

 

[cat171]

I think orange was. They did a limited edition, then another one.

19 reg MB C63S AMG Coupe in white with black wheels last night. Lovely car!! Like this, but way better in person.

I love the shape but I just can't get past those chrome rimmed wheels. Looks really nasty / aftermarket (IMHO of course).

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean & I'm not into them either. They looked much nicer on it in real life though.

Sort of...

First they launched the 'Edition', Nitrous Blue paint and came with Mountune's front mechanical LSD, I don't recall they were limited in numbers.
Then they launched the 'Red Edition', same as above but with flat race red paint...this was limited, 300 total in the UK.
Finally came the orange 'Heritage Edition', 50 of with 47 sold to the public. Of course, by public, that mostly means friends and relatives of dealer principals who have made a mint out of them.

I know of about 5 max Heritage models that genuinely found their way into the hands of proper enthusiasts LOL

i saw a rally liveried citroen c4 loeb edition driven by a middle aged woman.

she didn't acknowledge my evo

 

[-Jamie-]

Seen a couple of these already but only white, I really like them look great on the road

 

[Ex-User (72296)]

What is it?

 

[McGherkin]

The new Alpine A110

 

[Tim.]

Saw a really lovely mk1 Golf GTi on Superturismos, in the work car park yesterday.

 

[OssPoop]

Spotted a kia stinger gt, the fast one. Dunno why anyone would buy one over an equivalent BMW or Audi. It was horrible.

 

[Euan94]

I’d forgotten how good 1Ms look, not sure I’d seen a black one before either. Photo is more for proof than anything ?

Some for sale at £38k now. Not much more than a megane trophy! ??

A yellow Mclaren with a shopping list down the side, a red 458 speciale, orange Huracan and a silvery/blue Esprit V8 today. Sun brings them all out it seems.

 

[Jesse James]

Saw a clean 106 rallye

J-Reg Metro 1.1 in Leeds today, old bloke in shirt and tie driving.
Looked like he'd owned it from new!

 

[Tim.]

Spotted a yellow A35 AMG with aero kit today. Looked quite nice.

Saw this in the car park this morning:

 

[cat171]

18 reg, Matt grey Huracan Performante just now. Identical to this one.

 

[v15ben]

Just seen my first Porsche 992, well a pair of them together, driving through Leeds.
Look pretty nice tbh!

Has there been a bad looking 911? It's amazing how they change it so much, but it's always instantly recognisable and good looking.

Saw a red one yesterday, looked great!
Not sure it looks a 100k car though.

The two I saw were dark blue and black.
Both looked good although the back end is a bit busy IMO.

 

[Euan94]

Saw this in Bermondsey, in a dodgy looking Porsche garage. No idea what it is but it I love it

 

[Matt W]

Saw the new jimny yesterday, so hard to get hold of that they are selling for many thousands over list price on autotrader!

 

[v15ben]

Saw my first new Jimny the other day in Leeds.
I don't get the hype at all.

 

[Tim.]

Old, brown, and pretty knackered, but you don’t see many cars of this age knocking around:

The new NSX. Not seen one before. Looked lovely on the road

That looks like the twin of one near mine, every now and again a Blue one looking the spitting image of that appears at a Porsche garage, where I come off the motorway, I keep meaning to get a pic of it

I wish I’d paid a bit more attention to this, it’s registered as a 911 RSR and turns out it’s a Sebring 12hr winning car and is rather more special than I thought. God knows how much that is worth

The old mk 2 Avenger! I used to have a brown mk1 standard 1500. But I built myself a mk 1 running a zetec on bike carbs with a 5 speed box. A fun car to say the least

Just bumped in to a friend who’s added this to his collection.
