One of these in this colour in Honiton this morning.....



...a very striking looking and unusual spot. I assume he was going to the hillclimb event at Wiscombe.
Ok I give up, Ascari sprang to mind, but I don't think it's one of those, so come on............................
DeTomaso Guara
I've seen DeTomaso Pantera, but never this model, looks good:

Subaru! Wash your mouth out. Did she not see the silver monstrosity opposite? tongue out
A tad cold a windy for mid-May wasn't it?
Well just to be awkward I actually prefer the stock looks of the GT86... and the fact they do a poverty spec model. If only they sold it in the uk. But she's liked Scoobys for a long time. Weather was poor but at least it kept the crowds manageable.

Were you due to be on the Rotary Club stand? It looked a little thin on the ground when we finally spotted them (the program had them shown in a different field lol)
Yeah. Compared to last year it was pretty barren! Lots of people put off by last year. Depending on when you visited though losts of people had booked track time

Hopefully in the right geographical location - as not a local - but a black Cobra-like vehicle, M4 hard shoulder not a million miles from the Severn bridge, on the English side but bridge bound, late on yesterday evening. Very nice! Hope the driver didn't get too wet waiting for recovery!

I can do that. Give me a curry and a can of beans, and I'll be sounding like a Gallardo long past 12am.

A few spots from the last couple days...

Yesterday morning burgundy griff stuck in the traffic on the Portbury Hundreds
This morning..grey California on the Portbury Hundreds
Lovely sounding XKR getting in to the M5 at Cribbs this evening

My rare spot of the day...what appears to be a Citroen SM, but it had a slightly different rear window/boot
