A set of wheels and tyres for an XJ220 would probably pay the rent on that house for a year or two.

A new petrolhead mate has one of the 5 220 Sports built. He mentioned a replacement carbon rear wing was something like £7,000 I think this was just the blade and not the pylons

Bloody hell.

I remember the old top gear with Tiff driving one. Rear tyres were 800 a pop in the early 90s.

Spotted the XJ220 mentioned in the previous pages at a test day at Donington on Thursday.

Quick question, as it's now August and the summer has officially come to an end. Was there ever the influx of Arab super/hyper cars in London this summer ? Or did people just not post them ?

[McAndy]

Iva, those two were stunning; two of my favourites. I've seen a Guara, but not ticked off the Koenig yet. Looks like it was a great event!

[Mr Adds]

I've had a weekend in London and amongst the plethora of Ferraris, G Wagons and Bentleys etc





Brabus 850S, and an awesome Gemballa GT3

Eta don't know why pics are upside down....

Whilst I was walking round the Guara,most people didn't know what it was.
I told them,as firstly I did know what it was and it said De Tomaso Guara on the bottom of number plate.....

One man asked if it was mine....

[L100NYY]

I saw your Barchetta parked up chap

I parked the Sud under the trees behind Druids to keep it in the shade. It was the only Sud I saw all day (apart from the green one racing)!

Just spotted this on the M1 J25 on the way home this evening - absolutely stunning in the metal!

Looks like a BMW i8 from this view.

Horrid chrome P1 in Brentwood today, plate KS1. I've seen that plate before on a 458 & Gallardo, so quite an upgrade.

Ha, I saw that too. Was parked up by the doctors on Shenfield Road when it drove past me. Couldn't get my phone out!

It's a one-off colour originally, in BMW's Austin Yellow

[sinbaddio]

Was a bit surprised to see this outside my local last night

[smithyithy]

Have to say the stance of that looks way off. It just looks like the car doesn't fit the wheels

[mab1]

I really cannot get on with that front wheel arch - yuk!

[Pistachio]

I knew the C post reminded me of something

Agreed, the side on view looks very wrong. Is there is some black panelling between the wheelarches which looks like shadow which is what makes it look all wrong?
