Not so much a rare car, but I'm betting a bl**dy rare sighting. I saw an old boy (65+) driving a new MX5, wearing a twead jacket and flat cap a few days ago. Alone that can't be too rare, but he was playing "Run DMC vs Jason Nevins - It's Like That" at full blast shocked

I had to follow him for a few minutes to make sure it wasn't coming from another nearby car... crazy


F****** b****** thing...

I saw a stunning silver 300SL roadster near Bracknell on Saturday. A few cobra replicas out and about as well.

A load of SL Mercs on the way to the ferry terminal today around 10ish.

All German plated and ranging from the 300SL to the 280 Pagoda. All of them looked to be mint.

i saw an F40 (a real one not a bodged body kit mr2) outside Bury St Edmunds a few weeks ago.

My all time favourite Ferrari.

Truly a jaw dropping car to see in the flesh.

Last Wednesday about 1100....Jaguar XJ220 - Silver heading Westbound on Broad Lane in Coventry going towards my village of Berkswell. I've actually seen it a couple of times before but not for some time. They are one HUGE car.
I actually used to see them quite often'ish as my Mum lives near Browns Lane when they were in production - They were assembled by TWR in Banbury but they stored quite a few unsold LHD cars in Coventry........Still stunning...

Maserati 3200GT, I think it was the banana taillights one. Unfortunately I didn't get to see them. Fantastic looking car, like an updated Coupe from the front.

That is hella cool man!

I used to have a '77 MK1 Scirocco with a storm interior and front spoiler. Miss it like crazy. Really dig the retro stuff!

While we are on old skool - saw a bright red Mk 2 Escort yesterday in GX, amazed anyone would risk it in the rain. Far too nice looking for that kind of abuse

Dark blue Nobel on the M50 last night, was overtaking a lorry at the time - hoping that when I pulled in he'd give it some welly.

Disappointingly quietly but incredibly quickly it disappeared into the distance.

Also saw "customised" F430 with rear wing in GX later that evening

on the A4 near Heathrow was a bright orange Murcielago with big rear wing trying to fend off a lorry driver who wanted his lane!

Trip into Belgravia/Knightsbridge area yesterday via Park Lane

In showrooms in Park Lane - a Zonda and a Gallardo, bit further down the road was the Lexus showroom with the LFA inside. Looks so much better in the "flesh" than in pictures

Coming back up through Belgravia there was a Gallardo Spider parked up but as I reached the A4, a red Ferrari Enzo (reg 2FXX) passed by. Sounded rather good every time it pulled away (often as traffic was heavy)

2 in 2 days, another red Ferrari Enzo, this time in Chorleywood and on Belgian plates. Sounded just as good as the first one though as he gave it beans away from the lights
