Saw this wild Bentley at Ripon Classic Car Show today! I'm led to believe it has a 9 litre Cummins engine!!

Craziest car I have ever seen on the road was a Porsche 935, years and years back, my god did it go, looked massively wide, if I remember rightly it said "turbolader" across the top of the windowscreen

Yellow GT 40 which overtook me on M1 in early 70s doing 150 mph +++. Astonishing sight and sound .

Michele Mouton's Gp B Sport Quattro which also overtook me between RAC Rally stages in 80s. My passenger got out to see why we had stopped...

I have seen these two a few times. I saw the shed in Chippy a few weeks ago. The driver was very happy with all the attention and questions. His wife seemed a little less happy...

The white and blue Zonda that drove through my home town a few years ago as I was driving the opposite way.

Mainly because everyone drives such generic cars in my home town that seeing any unusual vehicle is akin to seeing a purple elephant walking down the street, so a full-blown supercar bombing past was quite an event.

I remember that and an equivalent car but made like a Hoover Constellation spherical 'hover' vacuum cleaner. I wish I could find pictures!

Can't say I've seen anything too crazy but this stands out in my mind. It's a TVR Sagora so basically a cross between as Sagaris and Tamora.

There's certainly some mad cars out there.
Another I remember seeing 10 years or so ago when I was about 8 was a white VW Beetle with 'Barbie is a Slut' stickered onto the side of it

Hmm, Lambo LM002?

Ive been to some racing events lately though, so plenty of serious racing metal would qualify too (Aston Vantage GTE? 488GTE?)
