Never seen a Huracan in this colour before, looked great in the flesh!

Originally I thought that 458 might be a shade of azurro but that last pic appears much more silvery.

Azzuro California seems to throw up different results on google:

488 looks like Grigio Alloy to me.

primer grey RS6 avant going past strangeways (sorry, "HMP Manchester") at rush hour this evening... so far so not that noteworthy, except it had literally the noisiest exhaust i think i've ever heard. It sounded like it was inside my car, and my car has active noise cancellation. It was cracking and rasping so loud it sounded like a fireworks show, not a car. I like a noisy exhaust, but it was absolutely OTT.

In other news, manchester spotters favourite PR09LEM has got himself a new motor... an AMG GT, or maybe even a GTR, but as he has a penchant for 'unique enhancements' to his cars (see the purple fluff covered SLS) maybe it's not the latter.

Nardo does suit the RS6. Think I saw and heard that around Castlefield over the weekend!

How does that make it OK? Do double yellows not apply within spitting distance of a Ferrari dealer?
It looks like it's actually their land, at least they have barriers up etc:

Probably to keep the public from parking there...

Not if its their private road adjoining their showroom and premises....looks remarkably like Stratstone Ferrari Wilmslow in which case they 'own' the Ferrari dealership, Porsche dealership and private service roads.
Bloody well spotted! Yes it is.

I spotted that 488 Spider too. And I've always classed that road as Stratstone property on the industrial estate. Never seen a traffic warden around there in my life, nor seen a ticket.


Nice! Looks stunning in the flesh. They have loads of 488s in black / red / grey etc but this one really looks special.

The 488 is stunning in that colour IMO - didn't they have a similar colour available on the 355, 360 and 430? It'd be my colour of choice were I fortunate enough that's for sure!!
Now you mention it - didn't James May drive a 430 in the colour on TG?

Three 675LTs at Spa on Tuesday, I've got photos but feels like cheating as not officially spotted in the wild.

I do find it a little sad that this is the fate of these cars, but there you go. The looks of them are growing on me!

It's pearlescent triple-layered yellow paint I believe, not gold. A £15k option too? Someone might correct me.
