I know it's worthless without pics, but I spotted a David Brown Speedback heading south on the M1 this morning.

And it was stunning

EDIT - holy fing shart... £600k... I guess they didn't make many?

Is this a real one? From an Aston run in Farsley, West Yorkshire last year to celebrate the old DB tractor factory in town that knocked out a few DB3s ...

Some bloke who does Youtube videos. Seems he used his internet money to buy the Lambo and even released a song about it -

that would be perfect if those diamond cuts were just a little bit bigger and wider to fill those gigantic arches. Also dished. Am I a chav? Well it's a white capri so it's retro chav if anything. Which is cool.

May be of interest to some, though appreciate it's not a supercar.

No, but it is a rarity, and therefore most welcome smile

Great spot. Do you know the attrition rate? Numbers made versus numbers still out and about?

Love these...

I think it was Kant who reckoned there were four key tenets or aspects of what we think as beauty: beauty is 'disinterested', 'universal', 'necessary', and sort of purposeful without purpose. I think I have that right!

He saw real separation between what is our usual rational judgement (i.e. Bar Rafaeli is a fox in anyone's books - that's just clearly rational, right?) and aesthetic judgments (e.g. "...hmmm, Michelangelo's Laurentian Library is incredible and enchanting isn't it, Patrice?".

Anyway he laboured the point that aesthetic thoughts are not based on concepts, or things that we definitely know, but on intuitions or sensations. Just general feeling, you know? Anyway, before I get completely lost remembering some philosophical cul-de-sac, focussing on Kant's view that a valid judgment of beauty is that it is 'disinterested', well, he meant that it isn't derived from any normal pattern. Merely sensory intuition that what you see you know is right, that its offers a full, detached pleasure. You know when you know.

Anyway....that's the Miura. Complete unadulterated, undiluted, detached, pleasure. A truly beautiful car.

Just going by the "How Many Left" website it would appear that there were 7 road taxed in 2014.

However I guess there would be a fair amount stored in collections never to see the road again.
