It's not painted, it's wrapped.

I saw a P1 today, sticking to the speed limits on the A40. He gave it stick onto the M40 then nailed the speed limit. Sounded fantastic.

Finchley Road yesterday

Phenomenal spot! Ex-works and then Ecurie Ecosse long nose D Type. That actual car placed second at 1957 Le Mans 24 hours.

Not sure if supercars, but a couple of rarities showed at the yank Ace Cafe meet last night:

Maserati Kyalami



Lister XJS Le Mans Convertible





(Some obligatory yanks of course!)

'72 Camaro SS



Our ugly mugs letting the side down smile



Hope you enjoy, the Kyalami was a talking point, happy to admit first I've seen. Large car in the flesh, bet it was stunning new. Anyone know owt about them?

Not everyone's taste, but certainly very rare.

Seen on the A34 near Newcastle under Lyme in September.
I passed this around a month ago on my bike in Staffordshire, very cool spot.

Obviously not! The body is though...

Don't see how anyone could find flat purple attractive, personally.

I'm glad that has finally surfaced, it's been hiding for a while!

Danny,

Do we know if the One 77 was just in town for the Chelsea v Man Utd game or whether it is a car we may see around Manchester more regularly?

Bobby Davro has a DB9 with a private plate on it which is very similar to that plate, it may even be that plate as I can't remember exactly what it is but there is definately a number and "DAV" somewhere on it but I can't remember in what sequence or what number it is, I work in the area that he lives so see him and the car occasionaly, however surely it can't be him as even though I'm sure he must still be a wealthy man, surely he's not wealthy enough to own and run a One-77.

Also given the area where he lives, he could well be a Cheslea fan as the training ground isn't far away and many of the Chelsea footballers live around here.

I thought Bobby Davro was killed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxYBpZ70y70

I saw this in Stockport. Sorry for the terrible photo. My..err...passenger had to quickly grab their phone from their pocket to get a snap.

I believe it's a Noble P4 replica of a Ferrari 330?
