The Vw Golf was spotless with not a mark on it.

Mini with a Type R engine

And a nice clean Ford Orion

Spotted a Mk4 megane RS in orange this morning. You'd think they were 20 years old with how rare they are .

Booked a cheap holiday to Rhodes and found this abandoned where the hotel keeps the bins.

I spent far too long drooling over this

I think I know the owner of that - he runs an aviation company in Oxford - in the unlikely event there’s 2 of them kicking around the south of England!

That sounds quite likely!

One kefel owner.

That sounds quite likely!

He’s had some tasty stuff, before that GT he had a beautiful Aventador Convertible!

Just get it stolen and put in your hand luggage already. I’m sure with enough imagination we could find a uk v5 for it and have it on the road

Mustang Mach 1. I've always thought the wheels look shite

 

[CrippsCorner]

Quite like that, it's subtle, for a Mustang.

Did you overtake him at 135 in 4th banging the limiter??

Better power to weight than a 570s IIRC, if your Clio makes 350bhp and weighs 800kg, with acceleration video as proof.

Got him in the twist's (I g0t cUp sUsPeNsi0n)

 

[CrippsCorner]

Those wheels are horrendous.

At the gym, a local Forex trader apparently.. I don’t even know what that is.

 

[16V F7R]

I bet they are not disabled!

 

[Short Norman]

black bit on the bonnet looks s**t, position of the license plate makes the owner look a tool, and it being parked in what appears to be a disabled bay only confirms this.

Also how out of proportion do those headlights look, bit like some of the latest Astons.

No-one actually ever made that kind of money on Forex have they??

I found him on social media, and it appears so! Crypto etc. Fair play I say.

That’s probably rarer now than some of the other spotted cars in here, especially as it looks to be in good condition!

 

[Cookson]

2 Fezzas on the M6 today. Sounded glorious as they tore off out of the 50mph zone

 

[_Tom]

They definitely don’t look like they should be Road legal..

 

[Yarp]

I like how the spoiler is like a little umbrella so not as much rain goes down the exhaust. Nice touch that

 

[ForceIndia]

My brother had his GR wrapped. I love the colour.

Saw a carrera GT on the m40 this afternoon. Firstly, they’re sensational on the road. So wide and low. Stunning.

Secondly, brave b*****d given the current issues they’re having. I was under the impression they were all grounded?

What's the issue?

 

[ForceIndia]

What's the issue?

They accidentally found a pretty catastrophic suspension component failure on one (went in for an unrelated issue).

From what was on phead (iirc) they contacted owners via email and phone (which was recorded!) to issue a stop use notice. I wonder if they’re even insurable for road use atm.

 

[ForceIndia]

All cars carrera GT’s will be inspected to see if they have the issue, and if there is zero issues the car can be driven. If there are any issues in the affected components, cars shouldn’t be driven until new updated parts can be fitted. Which will take 18 months.
