Teh Spotted Thread

[John]

Spotted today what I thought was a very tidy Austin Healey 3000 but on closer inspection there were quite a few subtle differences. A plate search revealed it as a Sebring, very nice

Been going into work a bit earlier last week to train someone and passed a McLaren GT on a couple of days.

Must be one of McLaren’s rarer production cars. I’ve only ever seen a couple.

One for Dave! I was overtaken yesterday by a silver W124 E500 in Belgium. It had good road presence still amongst the Peugeot and Citroen SUVs. No pic.

Neither true "spotteds" but may be interesting nonetheless - I was up North over the Easter break and my dad and I stopped by one of his mates.

Extremely mint V70R:



Porsche 928 S4

Porsche 928 S4

Hard to say, but that looks like it could be a more-heavily-blistered GTS front arch (?)

I applaud you for the use of the correct nomenclature.

also... wibble - Love it and love the colour

Think it is just the angle. This one's definitely an S4 (but without the rearmost back box - it was a bit loud!).

A future spotted for anyone who can get to the testing at Cadwell park on Thursday. The Stratos that was in the Roger Albert Clark rally has been fitted with tarmac suspension and will be sending it around the circuit

Saw this (only one existing in this livery, surely?) in Costco car park yesterday and though of @Sundayjumper

I forgot that I had posted this, apparently the engine went pop after four laps

We needed to do a bit of shopping in Stamford today as it's our local place. A bit gutted it couldn't end with an all afternoon drinking session in the sun but we were treated to this gorgeous piece of art.



The paint was immaculate and with the weather today a perfect choice for driving round Rutland and the Fens

Dave!

You clearly saw a man with excellent taste and many women

Dave!

Hopefully the owner was off shooting nuns who made the mistake of working on Sunday

*Yes, I know this wasn't taken on a Sunday, but it's my favourite Pi scene.

Had a chat to a nice German guy on Harris who pulled up next to me in a matte black M5 Touring. He said he thought he’d be the first one in Scotland

[Rich B]

i had a chat with the guy who owned this today - he was parked at the pump opposite mine. I complemented him on the spec (he confirmed he was lucky enough to spec it) and we had a quick chat about cars. He was pretty interested in my van and the interior too tbh!

Way back from Edinburgh after my 15 year old had had a TP driving lesson spotted a light blue 288 GTO, then a few miels later two modern Ferraris.
A yellow 12 cylindri and a silvery white one, not exactly sure as I was driving into a roundabout and nebbing at the yellow one!

If you were there at 1pm, I was having lunch at Fego’s.. Hope you told him the virtues of Shell fuel!

This trip looks epic. I did a similar one up to Skye with my dad on... er... my qualification leave just under 15 years ago. Think another one is overdue!
