I spotted a similar one (registration M15OKA) outside TW White & Sons in Bookham (A246) this morning. My son and I had a simultaneous 'WTF?' moment as we passed, but it would seem that they are now officially available in the UK...

Yay!




It was a toss-up between posting it here (as a rarity, thank fk!) or in the 'Badly Modified' thread, but apparently they're hand built by craftsmen, so not at all badly modified then?

1 of these monstrocities or a new MX-5, a standard MKIII, a track day MKI or MKII (or possibly even both) and still have enough change for fuel and some choice modifications...

pretty sure that's standard. Not a supercar, but fortunately a rarity! Until we Brexit that is.

Quite a nice selection outside Harpole's Premier Inn a few months back

It was nice to see this out and about in Mansfield today.

Good to see one that gets used properly, looks good covered in dirt.

Nice to see another Mansfield based PH member

Shame they've ruined it by putting a small plate on it

How on earth is a car ruined by a small number plate??? There are some real plate Nazi's on this site that get fixated on the how someone chooses to display their plate, but I can virtually guarantee each one of those breaks a motoring law each time they get on the road in their own cars. Guys you really do need to get a life

[DoubleD]

I dont like the small plate, but i wouldnt say that the car has been ruined.

[Fun Bus]

I think small plates can look great. And contrary to popular belief, they're legal too.

[Rich_W]

I probably wouldn't have trimmed it so close to the letters. I think it needs another 2" each end to look good.

What about furry dice on the rear-view mirror? Turbo sticker on the back? SPinners? Kinda ruins the look of a piece of automotive art - just like cut-down, chav or 3/4 plates...

[Justices]

Few days before Xmas. The Grove, Los Angeles.

Well if you knew anything about car history you would know that furry dice and spinners and very appropriate on certain types of cars of a certain vintage and style. As for the plate in this case, lets see the one you run on your Ferrari then we can all judge....

[Fun Bus]

It's a matter of fking opinion.

Some people like things others don't. It's life. Let's move on.

Its not exactly cut down, legal requirement is only an 11mm border. No point in paying for a 4 letter number plate and leaving it on a standard size plate.

[FERBusby]

Who cares about the size? Least it's correctly spaced.

Fair play to the owner actually using the car instead of locking it away in the garage for the winter.

Well what else would you bring to the boozer on Christmas day?

The Blue Boar. My Lamborghini was parked just down the road.

Indeed, missed the Lambo though.

Brother and Parents live there, I'd flown back for a quick hello over Christmas.
