Teh Spotted Thread

Tyres are the highlight of that vehicle

[Jobbo]

Love this

And me.

Peter, do you ever go out and see dull cars? Not complaining, just envious!

[GG.]

Saw a new Defender 90 up close yesterday - painted that greeny colour the press cars are often in. Looked great.

[Barry]

Defender meets Defender. Amused me anyway

Spotted on my milk run today:


Also, bonus reg plate on the truck ahead

Rubber band tyres on a defender
Is that a kahn abortion?

Peter, do you ever go out and see dull cars? Not complaining, just envious!

I tried it out today with a single trip to the supermarket:

VK45dd Cima:


V12 goodness - love the curtains:




This was enormous:

[Jobbo]

Ah, I spy an E90 3-series in the background - you do get to see dull cars

[mik]

Not by me unfortunately, but wow - what a thing

[integrale_evo]

There used to be a maroon one which turned up to lancia events back when I had my delta. I think he paid something like £30k for it. Honestly, I’d have taken a £10k integrale evo over it every day of the week.

I get what it is and how bonkers they are, but it just looked awful. Not in a bonkers functional way, in a thrown together by some bloke in a shed from random parts way. I don’t think it helps that the bodywork is all completely different to the competition versions. As a road car id take the street versions of just about any of the other group b cars.

@integrale_evo with those non-Oem rims, it’s the funkiest looking S4 I can remember seeing.

I remember Fast Lane mag (who ran a couple of Integrale on their fleets over the years) testing one back in the day (there may even have been a dual test with the 205-16? ) and were pretty meh about it as a 250bhp road car.

An Integrale Evo makes a far more compelling ownership proposition, but I’d still be very excited to see an S4 in the wild.

How far we've come:


Nice curtains:



Mean looking jzx100:


This one takes some creative squinting but it's worth it:





Similar setup to last week:




Nice and scabby:


I like ugly dished wheels (v36 skyline, basically a 350z/370z as a sedan):








I've posted Nissan Cimas before, this is the infiniti q45, same thing but with added blandness:



I wasn't sure if you guys got the isuzu mu (mysterious utility) so I snapped this one looking badass with it's murdered out paint and lift:

[DeskJockey]

Wasn't the Isuzu sold as the Vauxhall Frontera here?

[ZedLeg]

Yeah, the three door was very ironically named the Frontera Sport.

[Jobbo]

Is the squinting one an Alfa Montreal?

[Peterlplp]

Is the squinting one an Alfa Montreal?

You got it. Licence plate V8ALFA

[Mark_bt52]

I saw a Montreal on the M25 about a year ago. Never seen one before other than on a Top Trumps card.

[DeskJockey]

Spotted a Polestar 2


It is smaller and more compact than I thought. Looks very Volvo.

[Mito Man]

Many many new green numberplates.

Spotted twice this week - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lotus-Carlto ... 890.l49292 - it’s quite distinctive since it’s a blue Lotus Carlton replica (body kit at least). Once was at the end of my Lane with the owner taking a photo of it, today again in Tewkesbury.
