Why would you do a replica in a different colour to a car that only came in one colour?

First 21 plate car. A red Honda Jazz. Rather disappointing.

That's reminded me that a neighbour has a 21 plate G63 AMG. First 21 I've noticed and it's that big dumb thing 😄

Two black marks as it was neither my spotted and also at a dealer which is verboten...

Anyway, the FF was in for a replacement battery... gotta love Italian exotics! This was in the service car park at Joe Macari (along with an F40 out of shot)

Awesome looking thing

That's the first time I have noticed the length of the mirror stalks - to get beyond those haunches. :o

Can't believe the design is almost a decade old. The only ugly LaFerrari I've seen is JayKay's one.

I had the 918 way above this in terms of desirability at launch, but the LaLa has grown on me.

I saw a Polestar coupe yesterday. It was certainly shifting. Looked not unlike an S60 or S90 but was a chunk of a machine.

It’s a 456 GT “Venice” - 7 produced according to this, but 6 of them were bought by the Sultan

It's definitely in my top 5 most desirable cars. Can't find anything from a quick Google saying if the Sultan ever sold them and how much they went for.

Going by what happened to large parts of his collection, they’re going mouldy in a warehouse in Brunei

Saw my first Rolls Cullinan last weekend. Ridiculous looking thing - like a Phantom on stilts. Didn't work at all for me (unsurprisingly).

I don’t know who own it’s, but it was a daily driver when I worked in Mayfair (‘06-09). I’d see it driving around the Belgrave Square area at least once a month, often with a woman driving.
