Not sure that rare quite best describes today's spot - 1967 Dodge Charger dressed up perfectly as the General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard

Sadly Daisy was nowhere to be seen

OMG! I saw a black sEnny today, on the redbridge tube roundabout, it was amazing. Tried to get a photo but I was too slow. So I opted to open the window and do a sEnny shout.

Stunning White/Cream E-Type Jag. Followed it for a while on the A12, still looked great after all these years.

Also spotted a Black Lambo Countach outside Autocare at Stacey's Corner in basildon crazy. Mad looking thing but probably no match for the coop now evil

I was lined up at a set of lights next to an Audi R8 at the weekend and, because I was on my bike, I rather fancied my chances if he went for it.

He didn't though.

Not that impressed by the car, it looks too much like a tarted up TT.


Dear monos, a secret truth.

I saw what I believe was a TommyKaira ZZS Coupe yesterday.
Could be something else entirely, but that's what I believe it was.

Sadly, google won't let me find good enough pictures of it to verify frown

Ok I saw something very odd last night, looked like a 4x4 from the Dakaar rally, kind of modern looking Bowler wildcat, was on the M11 and certainly not haning around!

We also spotted this strange motorbike herse thing!

Here again - it cracked us up, how weird or what.

Surely these R8s are no longer rare - seems like everyone's seen them.

'cept me.

Saw the new four-door Jag today - VERY nice looking - a big departure on the overly retro Jags of recent years

Actually looked a bit italian - very stylish

A few weekends ago I attended the Noosa Classic Car Show, but on the saturday, we visited a fellow member of Fiat Car Club of Queensland and had a look at his collection.

In the link below you will see :-

1911 Fiat Tipo 7 (50 built)
510S (414 built)
501S

At the Car Show there is a Lombardi, a "Double Bubble" under restoration, and a couple of Coupes with a few other Fiats as well.

Spoke to some English tourists who were surprised to see the Coupe here in Australia. One even emailed a photo of his taken in the Lake District.

I didn't think the car looked that bad? Did you ever tell her how ugly she looked?

We had one come out to race at Snetterton back in August with the LMA Euro Saloons. Unfortunately the suspension collapsed early on in qualifying

And as I found the link to a picture for my forum back then:

That's what it looked like, except it had a hardtop or was a real coupe.
I only managed a very quick look as the traffic was flowing fairly nicely.

Will check around later to see if it was indeed one laugh

Spotted a yellow TVR Trident near my house on the A217. This car is apparently a very rare beast indeed with only a handful i.e. 4 built shocked
