I think there may be more Xantia XJSs in existence than Eventers.

Lesser spotted Toyota Martin

With the SL and Macan that would be a decent Londoner 3 car garage. Weekend car, commuting car, practical car.
How about not having a sig at all?

911 Dakar

Looks terrible, doesn’t sit right, doesn’t look right, and even more out of place in an urban environment than a 911 GT3 RS.

Saw one maybe last month ago, coming out of Wilmslow. Fully Gulf liveried with the roof rack on. Looked fucking stupid :lol:

I'll have mine without any livery or stickers, and no roof-rack or external stuff other than the off-road tyres. Please.

A silver Yeti piloted by none other than our very own @JonMad who stopped by for a coffee and to collect a chair.

A fisker ocean. Looked pretty good aside from the incorrectly spaced numberplate- O F15KER. May as well raise a flag “I’m a cunt”

Singers spotted. I don't think the turbo thing looks as garish in the flesh as the pictures, but I'd still take the other one out of the two, which also had a lovely interior.

The "Oil" and "Fuel" written on the filler caps can GTF though.

I hated the Turbo Singer previously but it looks truly terrible in that first photo :mrgreen:

812 Superfast making progress from South Queensferry area in to Barnton. Two letters, two numbers in grey. May have got the model wrong, it was dark and I just don't know Ferarris that well.

Yes I'm not a fan of that. Ironically I don't mind the notation on the filler doors - I expect it is referencing the short lived "oel klapper" models where the oil filler was on the rear wing as on that car. Funnily enough they didn't label that clearly enough and many filled the oil reservoir with fuel. Nonetheless it should read "oel" not "oil"... though that would probably have Americans doing the same thing and filling it with fuel :lol:

The 710 cap is on upside down 🙁
Would look a lot better if it had a flat front like a proper 935.

:D Great to see you again. (though I'd call it blue, not silver :geek: )

I agree. I remember sitting in and looking around a red one for about half an hour as a young boy c.1990/1 when my Dad was invited to a Cooper Rothley drive day and we'd just come back from being driven at pace in a special edition M5 and he was taken out in an M1 (which clearly didn't have room for me). Despite destroying the Porsche 'face' it feels correct for the 80's excess that SInger are recreating there.

Hopefully someone has requested that for their build.
