Scotland's Finest Spotted!! [Vol 2]

[BorkFactor]

I saw a Ferrari 458 coming up the A90 yesterday with the number plate F458 FER. Very nice!

[Georgeous129]

Saw a red Vauxhall Monaro VXR, a champagne gold old american muscle car (one I didn't recognise at all) which was massive, and also think I saw a TVR Griffith heading up to the Toyota garage roundabout, possibly the TVR Ecosse Griffith, all on Forfar Road and Kingsway. I thought it was a Griffith cos I was down by Morrisons when I saw it and it was up by the first roundabout but I noticed the brak lights come on at the bottom of the bumper, and I heard the V8 rumble.

haha fair enough!

Turns out the Porsche I always thought was a GT3 may just be a Carrera. Saw it parked outside Morrisons on Forfar Road and the reg comes up as a Porsche 911 Carrera.

Definitely a Carrera.

Ride height is the give-away, as are the ambers (the 996 range had gone all-clear by the time the GT3 was introduced in 1999)

Thought so. The sunroof was the other major give-away but I never noticed the sunroof, not even when I took the photos.

Spotted a red/white elan (sprint?) on the way into work either today or yesterday. Also a Hummer H2 for scotlands biggest spotted; certainly seems like it from inside an elise!

The champagne coloured Yank was probably a Mustang, there was one that colour at the Knockhill Speedfair, the huge American barge you saw was most likely going to the same place, I didn't pay much attention to it but I saw one on display, I think it was a Ford. There were several TVR's there too, a T350 and a couple of Tuscan's.

That Opel GT was my favourite car of the show, like a mini Corvette.

[LindsayMac]

Did not see you up there Mr Carrera. I left just after the Bi-Plane did its dogfight tactics.

I saw you from a distance (was the boy band hair) but when I'd finished my lunch you'd gone. Good value wee day some cracking racing and it stayed dry

[BorkFactor]

An Audi R8 in black, a white BMW 1M coupe, and a slightly barried 200sx in the car park at Tesco in Westhill.

Also spotted the gold Mustang (1965 / 4?) coming up the A90 on Sunday
