Caught a glimpse of some form of new RR on A470 heading into Cardiff amid rush hour last night, 89 GE.

Its you boxedin

Go back three pages, plenty of soft tops and plenty of exotica. Unless you class 600bhp Audi's, Lamborghini's, Bentley's & Rolls Royce's to be shopping trolleys of course.

Saturday evening around 7pm, parked up on Wind street Swansea (outside Revs, opposite TGI Fridays) was a black G63, Grey Lamborghini Huracan and in contrast a very, old Honda Accord dropped on its bum on some gold dished wheels. looked cool as! i'd take the G Class though.

Bit of an odd spot, I saw a brand new Impreza WRX STI TAXI in Trefforest this morning! Full on Taxi livery and the light on the roof - not something you see every day! Fair play to the taxi driver who refuses to give in to diesel smile.

Also saw another Clio 200/220 EDC heading westbound on the M4. I was in mine and they're a rare spot.

a nice suprise as i rolled into work this morning, heard it fire up a few hours later, by the smell of it I'd say it was running a bit rich...

Was the WRX taxi white? I saw a white one in Bridgend in December.

In December it was registered with Bridgend Council, can't be a cheap fare going to Treforest.

Because its the "Spotted in South Wales" thread and not an "Exotics Spotted in South Wales" thread?
Quite a few of the boring tintops are members cars also!


The Impreza Taxi driver lives in the Pontypridd area I was told before christmas. Saw it parked up for a few days in Hopkinstown. It is indeed a fully registered Taxi under Bridgends authority. apparently hes a bit of a car nut and decided "why not".
