Turbo_Verde Unregistered T	Parked outside of my work right now is a Aston Martin DB6 MkII, it is simply stunning! Might ask my director if he will let me drive it. He is going to bring in a different car each day this week from his collection now the sun is out, so I can't wait to see what he brings tomorrow.

There's a BMW Z3M Coupé parked outside my house most nights. There's less than 500 left in the country.

daithi28 My life on the forum D Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 1,632 Northern Ireland	White BMW M1 passed me on Sunday last. First one I've seen in the flesh. It's pretty awesome if I'm honest. Not F40 awesome, but awesome all the same. Speaking of which, I remember being on the autobahn in Germany in 1994 heading to Prague in a passat, doing about 115mph. We got overtaken by an F40 which was moving so fast that it had disappeared off the horizon within about 20 seconds! It must have been doing close to it's 201mph limit!

Very nice. Does your director own an Interceptor too by any chance? Not as far as I'm aware, but then again the one time I've been to his house/mansion I only looked in 2 of the 4 garages so you never know.

Nobby Unregistered N	I've seen loads of rarely seen cars this weekend - must be the sunny weather has brought them out of the garage. The list includes: a pearly white murcielago that keeps blatting past my house, 2x Aston Martin Vantages (haven't seen one for ages), New ish M3 CSL and 2 E-type jags.
