I'd love a Thema Turbo! love I used to pop over to Tanc Barratts near Kiddi years ago and he would pick me up from the station whenever my old GT Junior or Fulvia needed something doing in one.
Real wolf in sheeps! laugh

Spotted a BM 8-series tonight on the A46 Kenilworth. I've never been a Germanic manic but always thought they looked ok and could never understand why they always seemed to be comparatively cheap for a performance Beemer. Guessing its the V8/V12 costs?

Aha. This wasn't a turbo. It's a 8.32 - the one with the Ferrari V8

I had an 850 a few years ago and it used to average 12mpg!
It also has 2 of nearly everything in the engine bay and 2 batteries in the boot. crazy
Great cruiser though with a lovely V12 growl.
I would have an 840 sport if I could find a 6 speed in Estoril blue, but not an 850 again!

DS21 in Kentish Town earlier this afternoon, looked like a daily driver - but looked great, and then going past Kenwood passed by a silver Ferrari 330 GTC. Wowzahs (if that's how its spelt).

When was the last time you saw a Renault 11 1.7 5-speed? This afternoon, in Sentinel las Bodegas, as it happens...

Jumped through a wormhole in Costco this morning and in front of me was a 1988 Escort RS Turbo. All red and shiney and new.

Just like the Renault Alpine GTA, where have they all gone. Porsche 911 eating material once upon a time.

Had an immaculate Citroen CX pass by me yesterday. Colour was a sort of metallic soft sable, I think its looks have aged really well.

In the space of 15 minutes in Kenilworth Town centre - just spotted a Model S Tesla (though they seem to be getting more 'common!'), a Maserati Grancabrio which sounded superb even just pootling along in traffic - and my first 488 GTB spot on the road - looked stunning in Yellow with black wheels and roof, along with an Italian flag centre stripe............and was fantastically filthy!

Terrible photo because it was driving off as I was getting my phone out. Spotted in Prestwich, Manchester. Ferrari 488 GTB I think?

Had a good look at a parked DB11 in Cheylesmore Coventry yesterday - Met Grey with a Stainless Steel type roof/pillars. They really are alot nicer in the flesh.

Saw that Giallo 488 this afternoon by me in Coventry this afternoon. Parked up so had a good nosey. Very nice - local doctor/dentist owned whose had a strings of exotics all sharing his 1FER plate. Although he seems to have given it a matching offside pair of kerbed alloys shocked cry

I'm not sure how rare they are, but I saw a lovely Barchetta yesterday, a silver one, leaving Tesco's car park, London Road Newbury. I waved and they waved back.
