The safari did come in as a three door pickup but this looks chopped down to me:

I usually don't bother with supercar stuff but this looked nice taut, like a little ND mx5:

Rimac Nevara drove past me in Thurleigh Village yesterday. Looked purposeful 8-)

Imagine it was driven by car journalist on the way to the Autodrome.

A Nevera has got to be up there with rarest spots 8-)

An A110; always good to see one. first thought this time was "now with added Gordon Murray ride and handling benchmark kudos".

Ferrari Roma.

Image from teh library.

It looked... well... a bit weird tbh. :? Didn't look aggressive - appeared just a bit too smoothed.

Meh.

Whole thing is an aesthetic mess. Front end looks like it came off a Genesis. Hard to believe the same company designed that and the stunner that is the 812.

2 Alpine A110's...

Despite not seeing one at all until this week, like busses, I've now seen 2 - including one in Black with JPS'ish gold trim. They do look unique but I'm not 100% sure I like them ..

There was one next to me at the pumps yesterday so I had a chance to have a decent look at it. From some angles it looks really purposeful despite being quite a small car, I’m not sure it all works together though.

The A110 looks a bit shit but I'd still love to drive one.

Edit - As for the Roma I like it in a GT type way, the grill is horrible and offends me more than recent BMWs.
How about not having a sig at all?

I like the A110. There is one nearby (which he has just replaced with another A110) but when I found myself behind him on a nice little stretch of road - he just kept pootling. :(

Having sat in a black Roma Spider today, I can only say you are both so wrong that I am going to send you vouchers for specsavers! 😛

However, the back seats are an absolute joke.. zero legroom with the front seat set comfortably.

Schmee was there and, with no cameras running, sounded completely normal which makes me think his whole lisp/annoying voice thing is just to stand out from the crowd! 😵‍💫
Cheers,

Ian

You have been hypnotised by his lispy hardon (c) @Maurice and your judgement is therefore bollox. :(

Spotted near Europa Point in Gibraltar - a pretty well-used Honda S2000. Visible rust round the wheelarches and underneath, headlights yellow and cloudy and a blanket over the hood, which isn't going to look nice I'm sure. Bet it still runs well.

Saw a blue one today. Wasn’t too fussed on the colour but the design looked great

I've seen a few Emira and think they look lovely. A fantastic car design.

yeah, bizarrely the 7 series works best out of all of them.
