Nope, not that one. This thing looked like the real deal. It must of been a old school rally car or something as it didnt really look in place on the road. I bet it was running the 1.3 engine but was screeming through the gears! I pulled around 5 car lengths on him

Was up on the downs in Bristol yesterday afternoon flying a kite, or at least attempting to and failing.

Saw the bronze R8 GT again, sounded really nice actually and certainly better than the 3 other R8s I also saw in those coupe of hours (white, black and silver). Also saw a stunning old white morgan with a picnic basket on the back (looked ace), a very noisey original white mini, awesome looking green VW beetle and masses of loud and dubiously modified cars smile

If anyone on here looped round the downs between 3-5ish in anything vaguely interesting i probably saw you smile

I imagine on a really bright summer day there might have been all sorts of interesting things pootling about.

Old school mini on the A303 near podimoore. Was a stripped out caged with plastic windows, couldnt hear the engine over the diffs on it!! Sounded like a proper weapon! Had a little blat with it, not a match for my straight line grunt but without a doubt a very quick car! Looked cool on the road too, think it was mainly white with blue decals etc
This one?
R1 powered, i believe the chap who owns a very nice mk2 golf VR6 Turbo used to own it....
R1? But it says GSX-R on the side wink

Sounds a total hoot and would love to see it!
As you can tell I am a clearly not an expert on bikes.....

The one with the 'disabled' badge? No idea. But it's become a bit of a local landmark hasn't it.

Not noticed that but I can't imagine their being two, looks great doesn't it. The Carbon is so nice although I remember hearing rumours the Carbon side panels were £8,000 for the pair. Not sure if I could afford £80,000 on a car I could warrant an extra 10% for aesthetics. Hats off to the ones that do though.

It is pretty striking in that red, silver or white ones seem a bit ten a penny (compared with Monaros wink )

I'm just about to nip out for lunch so I'm going to check out that carbon...
