that is very nice, but would look better with one exhaust either side

My latest spots of motors from on the street and in car parks etc...
I hope you don't mind me putting a link to the pics rather than uploading them on here, it's just miles easier! http://athorby.zenfolio.com/p595078383

Great pics Kurt & CC8S!!

I don't know if I have ever posted this, but I have just found out they can be worth anything between £100k and £250k! I present the Jaguar SS100. One of 308 I believe.

Likely to be a Suffolk or similar with that registration.

Damn so it is not real? Ignorance is bliss

Is that like an SWB Gullwing or something?

Is this a chopped 300sl? It seems to have side exhaust. Replica? Real?

There was an outfit in Italy which converted SL Roadsters into SLS replicas - I imagine it's likely to be something like that.

Not bad, but a bit I do have mixed feelings about it.

That's beautiful! In the middle of Edinburgh?

Not real but nevertheless very desirable. They are definitely a very superior class of replica, usually based on 70s/80s Jag oily bits - think they often use the old 4.2 straight six!

No, sorry, it is Jesmond in Newcastle.

Hi there,

Its taken me a few days to work through these, but here are some pics of the various supercars that were spotted during the three days of the Le Mans Series meeting at Silverstone. I know that this post is not in the normal spirit of the thread but I thought I would post it as this thread has gone a bit quiet lately.

There were no hypercars such as a Veyron, Zonda or Enzo but there was some great cars in and around the pits/paddock area inc the first UK showing of the new Spyker Aileron.

I'll start with the Ferrari and Lamborghini ones: -

Very nice Yellow 360 Challenge Stradale



Not the normal 612, but a very striking 612 Sessanta



Standard Black Gallardo coupe



White Gallardo Spider with grey Callisto wheels



Stealth - all back LP640



Selection of Aston Martin V12 Vantages - one of my current favourites







Didn't know Mr Bond was racing this weekend - very nice DBS



There were two Ford GT's around the paddock over the weekend. Both had the 'whipple' supercharger upgrade.







Morgan Aero 8



Lotus Evora - very nice in Norfolk Mustard Yellow



Bentley Azure - this thing was huge a dwarfed most of the cars in the car park



A selection of Porsches including GT3 RS in Viper Green and a nice black GT2







and how about the very latest Porsche the Panamera.



This looks like fun, a Plymouth Prowler



Latest version of the Audi supercar the R8 V10



Something very different a Ronart Lightning - not seen one of these before





Finally there was a huge Spyker prescence at the event. C8 parked in the paddock.



No this is not a race car but a limited edition LM85, 1 of only 24 built - details here http://www.spykercars.nl/?pag=127



This weekend saw the first UK showing for the new Spyker supercar the Aileron.





Sorry the pics are not more creative but I was trackside for most of the event shooting the races.

Regards

Tim

New XJ??

Ridiculous plate on the Bug!

And yes new XJ, saw it testing at MIRA at a driving experience day, made an unusual noise.

[jerwatt]

Around London in the last week. Also saw an Enzo, cream coloured 8C Comp. and few other bits of tasty metal in a garage, but wasn't allowed pics, so won't say where it is.







I certainly wasn't expecting to see the Fighter on the street. Anyone know what version it is?




Anyone know what this is?



1950-1956 Rolls Royce Phantom IV, 1/18.

Nice pics everyone but I think I just won this thread. What a beauty...
