Teh Spotted Thread

[Jobbo]

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!

Really just starting today - we’ve had 3 nights in Stornoway and explored Lewis and Harris, currently waiting for the ferry to Berneray. We have a ferry booked on all but one of the next 7 days.

Do it, but be aware that even the supermarkets and cafes seem to be shut on Sundays so plan to have some food in stock!

Currently in Saunderfoot, plenty of metal at the seafront. Loud R8, some highly modified Mustang, and about 3 Cayman GT4s

Undoubtedly my favourite, albeit back in Telford, was a green Vauxhall Maloo! Library picture but same type....thundering along.

[DeskJockey]

Didn't get a picture, but went past a house nearby with four R107s on the drive. They all looked like projects, but still.

Couple of bmw spots

M5 estate. Smaller than expected. Lovely
Xm. Uglier than expected. Horrendous, what were they thinking
V10 m5 driven in anger. Made up for the xm

6 of these!

I did a thing at Goodwood today driving old series 2 Landies. It was really good, we drove around the property, up the driveway, through the rally track etc before heading to their off-road trenches. The little landies were hilarious to drive and seriously capable - the trenches were basically the width of them and wound between trees and up banks.

But also, there was a track day on the main track, with a whole host of nice stuff (including 2 S1 elises). The Manthey GT3 and this alfa stood out!

Friend on her way to Le Mans spotted this this morning. Love the wheels

[Simon]

It definitely needs some more lights at the front.

I’ve been watching Neon Genesis Evangelion again

Lots of Triumph saloons down in Cornwall that looked like they were being used as dailies , a black M2CS with gold wheels - loked like the clay sculptor went on break before doing the rear; do not like.

The most exciting car was something I saw earlier: an E30 Aplina B3 or B6 Touring - looked very cool Like this, but grey -

ETA - maybe this



Actually, think it was a B6 due red numerals - like this..

Fiat Barchetta, always had a soft spot for these

[nuttinnew]

Dagnabbit, I was going to post a marketplace ad for a Barchetta
(and another for a coupe 20v turbot engine & box ).

Good looking and don't drive badly (iirc), always a smile-worthy spot

[integrale_evo]

Sweet little cars. Something which like so many other models fell victim to a completely pointless facelift which made it look worse.

[Beany]

I do like a Barchetta, but was disappointed to learn they're front whee drive and that's always stuck with me. Terribly pretty cars.

[Jobbo]

I seriously considered a Barchetta in 1998 when I bought my Puma. Many reasons not to buy the Fiat (a Punto underneath, LHD and cool but annoying door handles) but it still a really interesting and cool car.

And eu regulations when they put on that horrid 3rd break light

Caught this tidy little Polo on my way home, no smoke and he was making good progress..
