The original scirocco was a 3 door hatch based on a golf. Hth.

As was the second and third generation wasn’t it?

I still don’t know what is being argued here

Indeed - rather than the scirocco being a slightly-more-coupe-ish golf, like all the other ones before it. It should actually be a Peugeot that has a similar profile to a Karmann Ghia.

Obs.

I don’t understand any of this.

A good question. It's just Rich being his usual try-and-create-an-argument-from-nothing self. There's a response to that I hope he gives

Richard; first thought when seeing that with AM plate 'that's not an Aston'.

its not just me on this though. No one has a clue what you’re trying to say.

This. And Rich isn't arguing, just trying to decipher the nonsense above

Some good spots the last couple of days;
cream rhd Volvo Amazon estate, red wheels/whitewalls/roofrack, looked at home at the seaside.
Cream Volvo Amazon two door saloon, was going t'other way on the motorway so didn't see much more...
...also going t'other way on the motorway was a yellow De Tomaso Pantera, sounded
A black B7 RS4 estate with sport seats.
An egg/baby blue Bentley Mulsanne, something like this;




Saw my first new Continental, looked a bit underwhelming, maybe the silver it was in didn't help


My favourite spot though was one of these;





Rhd on a J plate, sat innocently in a cafe carpark it looked caf, even when a Ghost parked next to it






While googling pics for the above I found this http://bay2car.com/LOTUS-CARLTON-ESTATE ... /car108888

No photo because it was in a layby on the A303 and by the time I had registered it all, I had passed it.

What looked like an old Routemaster bus, painted matt black with "G-Shock" and "Never Give Up" branding all over it.

It was parked in a layby because it was hitched up to the back of an HGV recovery truck.

Having, presumably, given up.....

When pissing about looking at BMWs, I followed a Mustang Mach 1

It was stupidly wide, and the wheels looked like the arches were trying to spit them out in disgust. It also reeked of unburnt fuel.

It was brilliant.

Beat that.

It was less sideways in the reals

I just spotted a Senna in Senna colours, I think I might have beat that

Was it wrapped in clingfilm?

WAS IT?!!

So you’re thinking of making a real life Lightning McQueen replica, what would you base it on?

It’s obvious really - an FTO.

Jesus. Imagine that turnng up to a kids party, and all the kids seeing that evil looking mouth, and screaming....

Still, there's no scary films for kids to watch these days so I suppose something should scar 'em for life.

DIY PPF FTW!

My commute takes me down the A40 and through Burford which is near Lord Metcalf's farm.

Last night I saw his combine in his field and his Espada coming the other way. The Espada looks incredible in the metal. So flat, wide and purposeful.
