Lots of boring stuff, small hatches and X5s, Q7s, Q5s, Lexus R450, Cayenne, Touareg etc, but two DB9s, an M5 (there used to be an M5 Touring too), a Maser GT, a new GTR, a new M3, a Z3 M breadvan, a Sagaris and one bloke with an amazing collection of Mercs, including a 1960s 600, a 1970s 450 SEL 6.9, a 560 SEC, a Maybach 62 and a few others,

On the Sq which is nearest my flats, boring toss mostly, the better stuff,

Range Rover Sport SC
997 S
Ferrari 360
R32 mk4
TVR of some kind

I wish someone lived in one of the private estates around here though, because that would be incredible, the cars that live in the private roads Wentworth/Oxshott/Esher/Weybridge/Cobham would be a very PH lot biggrin

Plenty of Audis, BMWs and Mercs around my area, but one neighbour has a DB9 and Continental GT. When they have the family round that increases to a Quattroporte, Carmague, a couple of 730ds, 330d Sport etc. Family business is quite successful smile

Just standard family stuff - next door had an S3 (traded for a shiny new A3 convertible) and an A-class - just standard run of the mill stuff for the most part.

There is an R34 (I think) Skyline GT-R knocking about in one of the garages further up the road, and a few doors down have an R35 GTR.

Over in Bristol our shared car park is also full of crap, apart from the FN2 Civic Type R and 2005 Impreza STi in our parking spot smile

All I can say about my street: pathetic!

Opposite, a brace of Hyundai, one down a 20 year old Passat. Next door to one side a 15 year old astra estate, a berlingo, and a landie that has not moved in the 5 years we have lived here. To the other side we have a people who think a new mini should be bronze with brown stripes. Class.

Not very PH.frown Bloke a couple of doors down had a 350Z until a few months ago, but that seems to have been replaced by a Lexus IS250.redface Next door have an E38 728i Sport, which is lovely. Must be one of the last on a 51-plate too. That's about it.

Same same, to list them would just bore people I recon - even my attempt is no use(Rover 600..first car), although there is a Bristol 401 under restoration nearby.
