Supercars spotted, some rarities (Vol 5)

[Stuartyvilla]

And some recent spots from NI. Not very often I mange to get the really exotic stuff on camera here very often, but I try.

Sorry for you guys that don't think this overly rare or special, but it's pretty good for Belfast!

And some more.

I really like the location of this, plus the car looked good as well.

This is probably the rarest car I have managed to get a pic of, seen in my hometown which was a bit of a surprise, lovely colour.

I think it is from Morocco.

Another vote for Morocco, similar format to this one I saw out there a few years ago



And yes, I took the shot as I like my old wedge Rovers!

Thanks guys, it seems you are right

Just a quick crop of this photo, I havent been bothered to add my name.

Very nice shots! Keep it up.

I'm around central London a fair bit & thought I'd drop some of these here. It's funny, when I lived in Edinburgh I'd have been really excited to see a Gallardo or F458, these days they don't raise an eyebrow and I walk past Astons every day without even thinking of taking a photo. Anyway...

Porsche 911 GT3, on an otherwise miserable December day.


BMW Z1. First I've ever seen in the flesh.


Speaking of oddballs... some really nice French metal.


No idea what this is. Charger? Camaro? Looked (& sounded) awesome.


Nowhere near central London, I go lost trying to find my way to a park & crossed paths with a 190(?)SL!


The same street had this. The new ones haven't a fraction of the attitude IMO.


Not sure if it's worthy of the company in this thread but I saw a really nice Nissan QX the other day. The most anonymous car ever made? But looked really well looked after. Either that or they truly are bombproof.


And since I've lowered the tone, today I saw this! Didn't have time to stop, I don't think I've ever known what this is. Certainly stood out. Late 90's early 00's retro GM thing?

The gold thing is a Plymouth Prowler.
I remember sitting in one at a dealership when they first came out when I was in school!
I really like the stuff in your post, the random mix of old and newer rather than just generic new supercar photos often posted from London.
I always enjoy keeping an eye out for the older, more eclectic motors parked on the streets when I'm in London.

Plymouth Prowler, horrible!

Maybe. But I saw one going up the M3 as I crossed a footbridge to get my paper on Sunday, and it SOUNDED brilliant.

[Justayellowbadge]

Not a huge fan of the Prowler, but I bloody love the fact they built it.

Disappointingly few spots during my Australia trip, especially considering the race meetings we attended. There's a bit of background to each of them on this page: http://www.motorcardiaries.co.uk/spotted/

AMG CLS 63 Shooting Brake:




Commodore VP HSV Clubsport:



BMW 1M:



Commodore HSV Clubsport R8:




Lamborghini Countach LP5000:




Aston Martin Virage:



Holden Monaro GTS:



Goggomobil Dart:




Ford Falcon XE DJR Replica:

[v15ben]

Some nice stuff there, Andy.
Some very familiar locations for me too!
Is the older HSV on Chapel Street in Melbourne by any chance?

[chevronb37]

Awesome urban street identification, Ben! Sooze lived in a hostel just off Chapel St for three months so we went for a wander around her old haunts - Hungry Jacks, purveyors of goon, that kind of thing.

[v15ben]

I spent a bit of time there when I visited Melbourne and my mate's family lived fairly close by!
Goon is always a good choice, if slightly dangerous.
Glad you enjoyed Australia, it's a great place with some tasty cars of the V8 variety too.

Any pictures of the 911 parked next to it?

[alexabsolute]

Yeah, will upload them soon.

Looks like Mosi's gang from earlier on in the year.

It's a Camaro, pretty sure '69 or around then anyway.
