Teh Spotted Thread

I'm sure there's some sort of filth autocorrect on here! It happened typing this again Lol

I meant Corrado's seem much cheaper than Mk2 Golf GTI's.

I had a baggy mk2 Scirocco in Uni around 97, I absolutely loved it but in hindsight struggle to believe it was only 10 years old!

Would have loved a Corrado then and still feel the same. Great looking cars and don't seem to be crazy money like nice Gilfs.

Funnily enough, I had a mk2 Scirocco from 1996-98 and loved it. So much I did get a Corrado VR6 in 1999 and loved that too. Every now and again I consider a Corrado as a classic to keep forever. One day, perhaps.

Isuzu Vehicross at the local car meet. There was lots of more obvious stuff there, but I thought this thing was kinda cool. Sounded way better than you'd think too.

[ZedLeg]

Zehicrosses are really cool. I'd love one.

[duncs500]

Not something I've come across before, or something I'd usually be interested in, but it's definitely got something about it.

[Jobbo]

I'd like one of those and a Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution please. Both cool as can be.

I keep spotting a Pajero Evo in my locale - it's well used and they still look special. Approved.

A friend of mine was at Portmeirion this week and spotted Jonny Smith filming for a The Prisoner feature, with classic & modern Mokes, and a Caterham in place of the Lotus.

And in Tesco car park today I spotted an unmolested Compact, almost identical to mine (before I molested it).

Were you tempted to put a note on the screen?

Reminds me of my silver x-reg I should never have sold

Also made a compact friend last night.

Sienna red vs Calypso. No wonder people always get the two confused in photos. Even side by side there’s not a lot in it. Touch more orange to my sienna.

Spotted yesterday - an Alfa Montreal on the road. Going the opposite direction near Cheltenham so no chance to take a photo. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one being driven before, just static at shows. Still amazing looking, and small compared to modern traffic.

[240PP]

I’m assuming it’s the same one I’ve seen a couple of times. Yes, very small. I thought they’d be bigger as they have a bit of a 70’s muscle car look to them in pics.

Jobbo. Saw the car first then recognised the plate.

It crossed my mind but it had a sunroof, and I avoid them as far as possible.

Parked on the Promenade? We were at The Beefy Boys.

Driving past HR Owen. Funnily enough, we watched Tom Kerridge’s programme tonight and he had The Beefy Boys on.

[Jobbo]

I’m sorry I didn’t spot you then - what were you in?

We watch the Kerridge show in the week; booked before it caused a rush because we hadn’t been for a few weeks.

Was in my A5, sat at the lights opposite.

I foolishly tried one of their burgers (plus fries (and a beer)) about an hour before playing football

Some old VW plastered in Rally Scotland stickers.
The two spare tyres makes me think it’s participating?!
