if you want some nice Porkers, head up to Maida Vale. There is a beautiful 993 Turbo S.

also, a challenge: Honda NSX Type R or NSX-R.

IMO they'd never produce such a pretty car again

I remember them reviewing it on Top Gear. They sold hardly any?

It's a shame, from what I've read, they're pretty serious bits of machinery.

There was a red one I used to see all the time near where I live. Was quite an old one. Still made me look every time I drove by.

just looking at the cars coming from the orient - they're nice and look great but they're not 'drop your chips on the pavement' nice, IMO

Mazda's next sports car could be something pretty eye-catching judging by the styling concepts of late...

Honda NSX. Not seen much these days. Perfect.
I spotted that very same car driving down the King's Road on Saturday - what a lovely thing.

Also saw the red CLK63AMG Black Edition I think you posted earlier in the thread - it's amazing how a little bit of tweakery to the body can set it so far apart from a normal CLK looks wise.

Edit: Just realised it was a DTM Cabriolet you spotted earlier. The Black was parked outside a building right on Hyde Park Corner behind a Phantom if that's of any help for you to spot it in the future, although I'm not sure if it's a regular visitor to the spot.

Amongst the usual stuff, a Maserati Kyalami in Primrose Hill.

Incidentally also saw the red CLK Black mentioned above and the YET1 CLS.

Also, yes, the plate on the Merc was YET 1. Me no know why. Strange......BTW what have you got to show us....?
Thanks! hehe

How can you not like them, they look awesome. So classic and rugged. thumbup

Was just wandering about that plate because I thought it would be quite funny if someone spaced it so it read Yeti. But maybe that's just me.

Ye sorry I couldn't get down into the car park last night but I'll try tonight. It's probably rubbish and not even worth it but it looks interesting. It's old though and never moves.

it doesn't pass the gay test

put two blokes in a car and if they look like they enjoy bum love with one another then it's a ga-ay car

that fails every time

Isn't that the O2 Centre off Finchley Rd? Used to shop there all the time when I lived in West Hampstead.
