Go on then, for internet points...

F40, F40 LM, 288 GTO Evo, Miura SVJ? Not sure about the last one.

Perfect! Just those 4 cars in the picture.

Rest of the spots:


Very poor picture of another Alpina - pretty sure it's a B7.

Silver Cloud III in a car park under a flyover. Seems to be relatively common in Tokyo, and makes sense in terms of using space that wouldn't be nice to live in.

This was in the same car park, as well as a 550 and another Phantom.

Electric power. Thought this was it for the night as I was heading home, but then this appeared... (with a crap photo due to the light sadly)!


Not too bad over 3 days in the middle of winter! Quite a few other normal modern day supercars, but not posted them since they're pretty repetitive. Have to say they drive a lot more variety of nicer cars there. Also saw (what I'm pretty sure is) the new Civic Type R, but it was in a showroom so not posted it. Same goes for a red McLaren 540C (car #12).

The Silver Cloud III, 550 Maranello and Phantom are all owned by the same person...

He also has an Azure and Continental Convertible (90s). He may also have a '60s 300SL Roadster too, but I haven't seen that for a year or two now.

Hi there,

Been in and around West London the last couple of days, sadly no pics as always driving but of the many nice cars I thought a couple were worth a mention. A Mercedes-Benz Slr Mclaren, a white Porsche Carrera GT, and what appears to be a Lamborghini Aventador SV Roadster, (sadly wrapped in gold) which is constantly followed by one of those silly 6 wheeled Gwagon AMG 6x6 thingies, (also sadly wrapped in gold.) Although not my cup of tea looks wise, the gruesome twosome certainly draw attention wherever they go.

By the way the Gwagon is, (badly) driven in relation to the Lambo, i'm guessing they are "security?" maybe for the Lambo bods?

Spotted in Seoul yesterday.

Not quite a supercar but you don't see many of these around

Is that an SL73? If so you definitely don't see many of those.

I think the 612 Scag was underappreciated in its day, but that looks absolutely lovely to me.

They can be had for relatively modest money these days ( linky) but I bet the running costs would chill your bones...

Hi there,

Heard this before I saw it as was sat inside having lunch with a client. Luckily it was still parked up when we left so I grabbed a piccies.





Marcos Mantis, think this might have been the first Mantis I ever drove having been involved with the company in 1998 for a year or two.

Japan-only B6 2.8/2 Touring... niched special edition as Japan didn't receive the BMW 328i Touring.
Only 136 units built.

He should offer his number plate to someone with a 918 spyder for a massive amount of money!

Yes i would have thought he could demand a good few quid for that now...!

That's usually how it works. The 'help' go in the 4x4 and the boss goes in the Lambo.

Over in London for a few days. Saw this

I never used to like the Turbo much but the 991.2 Turbo gives me a huge amount of want.

Was at Silverstone today, a few nice things there:

Plus the usual suspects, GT3/RS, another Speciale etc.

[Scooby P1]

Aperta in the best colour. One of the top spots. Bravo.

[MWM3]

And that CRT.
