Forthright MC said: Spotted my first Ferrari FF "in the wild" on the A1 southbound this afternoon. Crikey its a big car! - I saw one up-close for the first time yesterday and the size of it really surprised me too - despite being a 2-door it's as long and wide as a Panamera. I get the impression from comments on here that it's a bit of a marmite car, but I really like it.

Love the modified MP4-12C, it looks stunning! I saw these last Friday, the 430 near Silverstone, and the 599 at a services, can't remember which one it was though.

 Hopefully still rare.  [/quote] You didn't happen to get a pic of that E-Type or remember the reg did you?

Possibly not in the spirit of the thread but I stumbled upon a nice gaggle of Lamborghinis today just off the Kings Road.

No pics I'm afraid but saw a few Bentley saloons I think the Mulsanne including the 21 WO registered one that's in the press normally.
They were being photographed and filmed in Waddesdon Manor, looked very smart.

Nice selection driving to and from work today, almost made the trip worthwhile! No pics though as I was driving, but A3/M25 yielded:
Orange Muci SV
The Orange Noble M600
Morgan Three Wheeler
Bowler Nemesis (trailered)
Aston DBS
And nice to see a 993 Carrera and 993 Targa both within minutes of each other too.

Mr XXXX said: Ahem, apologises in advance, these are not my pictures, they were posted on another forum I frequent, however, upon seeing them I fought the founder of the original thread might appreciate them. Mercedes S73 AMG. What say you tigerkoi?    Hmmmm...I know the 7.3 engine went into the R129 SL, the Zonda and the C140 (ultra rare), but not heard of it going in a W140 saloon... There is a Brabus estate with a 7.3 engine -  - that I'd love to roll about in, but not a saloon as far as I know. Very interested in it's provenance, but the exhausts from this fuzzy parallax look a touch aftermarket. Brabii of the era tend to run their 'sooties' obliquely, à la Porsche 930 Turbo, so throwing me off the scent... Either way, thank you for giving me something to chew over. Need a Room 641A to trawl the internet to see if someone, somewhere....knows!

Need a Room 641A to trawl the internet to see if someone, somewhere....knows! He has a good relationship with Merc/AMG, and it was specially made for the chap by AMG in Bianco White, as "the Mercedes white tends to be a little yellow". He's a bodyguard, so you may have spotted the police lights hidden behind the front grill and under the rear lights.     He also had this SL60 AMG, one of the first if not the first ever AMGs ever built he claims!   Sent you a PM tigerkoi.

I used to know a 'spotter' from a different site that used to see this car and a few others now and again somewhere in the 'Far East' (perhaps Singapore?). I will have a look and see what I can find.
