On the outskirts of Chippenham today. The car itself is fully mundane but it caught my eye for the reg being just one letter different to my 5 Series, which is HG10 LZX. Must be very slim odds of meeting one of your car’s registration neighbours like that.

Saw two Suburbans in Manhattan.. as I walked past, I noticed some gentlemen in full combats and body armour (guess that should be armor) with US ARMY written across it and weapons very evident! I got off that block rather quickly!
Cheers,

I love driving around random trading estates in south london - always some random stuff to be seen - seems to be a disproportionate number of car guys for some reason.

Daytona SP3 in a dark red colour - it looked wide as a lorry!

Parked discreetly in M&S car park a long way from the entrance, a Roma. I thought it was an Aston at first glance.

Not quite as fancy pants as that, but a classic scoob 5-door with a nicely bassy zorst, and a E60 M5 the other day, just pootling around like it was a normal thing to do in your V10 super saloon.

No pics because I was driving, arf.

A light minty green LFA
A GTR with what looked like a wide arch kit over another wide arch kit.
A Novotel (I think) 599
A 355 Targa
A 488 driven by an 18 year old manga looking girl
An Aventador driven by a stunning blonde lady and a moody G63 following her, both Matt black.

All in Singapore.

You park in an empty car park, minding your own business, and some nob in an A110 comes and parks right next to you….. :roll:

Is the MX-5 bigger, or the A110 further away?

Loads of ID Buzz around at the moment. People are snapping up the lease deals. Even saw a white one with steelies and various ladders strapped to the roof so looks like the trades have discovered them.

And one with the plate BU22 HEY.

No pics but a McLaren T-50 first one I’ve seen.

It’s isn’t the prettiest looking thing but, like the F1 before it, function follows form.
