Don't like that one at all to be honest. The wheels are nice, if they didn't have the coloured bolts, but that's about it for me!
 
Saw an old maroon Alfa 164 3.2 V6 Cloverleaf last night, I know it was a Coloverleaf as it had it written down the doors in like 20cm lettering :expressionless:
 
I've just seen something that made me laugh, a recovery truck that had broken down, getting recovered by another recovery truck!

I don't get that. What does special enough mean? Special compared to the equivalent car? I'd say they are at least as special as the equivalent 911, or gtr.

It's the same argument people had with the NSX. It'll be appreciated more and more for what it is as time goes by.

Mid engined V8/10 with an open gate Manuel shift, rear biased 4wd and a mega capable, friendly chassis that you can use every day? Awesome things imo.

Agreed. Theres a guy in Canada that uses hos R8 every single day of the year, i believe its on well over 100k also.

Of the super cars, it strikes me as the friendliest to use!

Saw my first Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio during the weekend in Leeds town centre, I was in a restaurant eating and happened to look out the window as it was passing, was proper gunning it, sounded splended!
 
I've seen one down by JCT Ferrari, properly nice looking and sounding car.

Saw a 4C Spider in Leeds this morning. Never seen one before!

One of the doctors at our surgery runs a battered, lhd rs4 on German plates. It's damn cool. Also has a 993.

A friend just bought this after his X5 was written off. I think the dealer manager specced it and it wasn't for sale when he went it but he got it eventually.

Not sure what similarities is has to Waitey's old car but it's a f**king rocket ship. Red interior and a mental option list.

Same engine and drive train to my old one. They don't half go!
 
Just saw a yellow Lancia Integrale in Pompey city centre, looked awesome!
I randomly saw a dark blue one after work a while ago, it had Comp TH's on it & slightly bigger exhaust, it sounded ace, no f**ker was looking at it, but I sure was!! :hearteyes:

No pic as I was driving but this morning I saw an old school electric milk float on an old X reg. You don't see many of those around anymore!

LL05LEE. Is it a Focus RS rep? If it not it is an unwrapped RS500 looked unreal in panther black with black wheels.

Registered dates are like 07 which is mental makes me think ST.

Mother fucker. Looked utterly brilliant in all fairness. Back wings and front wings all done. Proper replica and a genuine engine etc in fairness.

Saw this at the local VW last night.

Unsure if it's a concept as doubt it's something you can actually buy?

They did sell a few XL1s. A bloke local to where I used to live in Milton Keynes had one. Was a bit strange seeing it in everyday traffic!
