Give us a flash and a wave if you see either of these around the Inverness area!

Daily driver, 2010 Scirocco GT ~290whp. I wanted something with a little more comfort than the E93, and it's much better on fuel when cruising, 44+mpg isn't bad with the map it has on it!



When I'm bored I'll pull this out, 1984 Ford Ranger, 2L Pinto, 3 speed Ford C4 with B&M Street Bandit Shifter. If it got any slower it would go backwards, but it's great fun regardless!

Here's mine, have had this about 3 weeks now. It's a 1966 Chevrolet Impala, 327 and powerglide. It's a RHD car, imported from aussie a few years ago.

I assume you must live around Lilyhill Terrace as I regularly see your car parked in the area. Must be difficult to find a space large enough round there to park it? Hope the council don't make you buy two permits when the controlled parking comes in to force smile

It's not too bad although If I am going to be late home I sneak the daily driver in a spot to nab it. Bit tricky atm as we have cable layers working in the area. I am often pottering about with it, so stop and say hello some time.

Think the permit is going to hurt as it goes by engine size, I think.

Hi David, it was good chatting yesterday - sorry I had to head off in a hurry but stop by again if you see me out pottering about.

Hi. Good to meet you, and get a chance to see and hear that V8.

David.

I can add this to the thread now that it's on the road.

Most likely to be seen parked, hiding away in a far away corner of Tescos or scooting around the back roads in Angus.

Brilliant video!

We've got the best roads right on the doorstep with the best backdrops.
Might be bias (grew up in Gorthleck) but the Fort to Whitebridge section is a brilliant backdrop to any car.
My GTV V6 is still sitting on the drive in Gorthleck but as soon as it's up and running she'll be going to the top of the Suidhe.
