Seen this in the flesh and it is stunning...possibly the best SLR I have seen on the roads.

Nice to see a non-press release photo of the new V12VS, that thing looks fantastic!

We saw those that Michael posted above, so I'll not put more of the same. Below are from what my son and I saw yesterday, I think there might be one or two which might have already been posted but hopefully not many, if any;
Lovely old Aston (DB5?)

Another Aston which I suspect must have been here already, any information on this?

This Abarth Tributo Ferrari was round the corner from Harrods, and being ignored by most;

A couple of Aventador's I think haven't been posted yet;


First time we've seen one of these by Brabus;

Lovely old Bentley;

Daimler outside Harrods made a change from the usual chauffer driven mini busses;

One of many California's;

Thiss FF was looking all nonchalent and that!

F12/ 458 combo;

An R8 Spider and a normal R8 in the rain (inlcuded because my son is proud of his first "action" picture!)


Hamman BMW;

This looked rather pleasant;

It was a great day for older cars, starting with my own favourite of the day;






An Enzo made an appearance;

F-Type before they get too common;

Finally, three showroom pics, I don't think the Veyron has been posted;

Some nice photos mate, I really want to see a enzo and missed it once again

That AM I think is a DB5, another one of my fav cars that I have only seen one of so far, I never have seen that matte black aventador yet, which is odd as I am around quite often, did you see the condition of that Hamann BMW? it had a broken window and damage at the front

Well done on spotting the enzo that hides from me

Michael, that Enzo was parked on Pavilion Road for over 4 hours yesterday evening. Shame he didn't bring the black one.

Hi there,

Not sure but this is the press car that has been doing the rounds. Perhaps its something to do with that.

This bloke has ANOTHER Enzo? Crumbs, what is he, a bank robber?

Astons are a DB4 and a V8 Coupe.

Thank you, my sons first DB4 in the wild. Is there anything particualrly special about the V8 Coupe (other than being an Aston, and therefore brilliant!)?

[NomduJour]

Basically a Virage with a Vantage-style facelift. There aren't many of them.

Another race meeting, another 599 GTO dumped in the paddock. Unusual paint scheme though.

it's a development car -in fact it's actually a 'hacked' V12V
