Supercars spotted, some rarities (vol 6)

[Butter Face]

Spotted an Orange Murcielago in Camborne, Cornwall this evening. Anyone on here? 03 plate, sounded glorious at 30mph.

In the unlikely event you've been unfortunate enough to have not seen this already, then I'll just leave the petrolicious 250 lusso vid here:

Possibly my favorite petrolicious vid. Beyond jealous!

Parked up just outside the Natural History Museum this morning, complete with PH stickers too.

Why are people with iPhones incapable of referring to them as phones. I don't say 'it's on my note 3'

Apple bell ends.

Similar to people driving boggo A3's and listing it as a "black edition" on their PH profile - as if that makes it slightly better or remotely interesting.

Every time i see a veyron, it strikes me how small it looks.
Is it much bigger than i think - or is that just the worlds smallest car parking space?

Edit - it's 1998mm wide according to wikipedia. A RR Phantom is 1987, a Range Rover 2073, and a bentley Conti GT 1966. So it might just be a small space.

Good to know it has an appreciative owner.

Wide, but not very long at all. They are genuinely compact.

No pic unfortunately, but I saw a dark blue XJ220 in North Herts, on Friday at about 5pm. Was just packing the golf clubs in to a friend's car when we could hear something nice coming. Jaw hit the floor when it turned out to be an XJ. Absolutely lovely.

Bentley Continental R Mulliner. 131 were made over four years; the 420bhp engine being the prime differentiator from the rest of the S/R/T production. Dash design has obviously come on leaps and bounds over the years, and of course, ergonomics plays a significant part, but for me the structure present in this era of Bentleys was the apogee. Like John Foster Kane's fireplace in Xanadu, there is no requirement for anything so magnificent. But that's precisely the point. No building to a price - that's for the rest of the market. I know Bentley's resurgence was mainly down to VW's wallet, but if you want to lead your market, stretch ahead, especially in something as competitive as the luxury sector, then it is sometimes best to ignore the Porter Five Forces analysis and all that stuff. Go 'blue ocean'. Think big. Aim for the relatively uncontested space in ultimate quality and luxury and those with the fullest banks accounts will come.

Almost identical to my fathers old car (only sold it a few weeks ago).

Great car with monsterous torque. We took it on a trip to the Monaco Classic a few years ago. Great GT car but it struggled going up the Col De Turini a little bit!

More like piloting a yacht than driving a car.

It's now ben replaced with a Mulliner Arnage T.

Hi there,

Popped into Lamborghini Birmingham this morning on my way back from a meeting in town.

Great surprise to see this in the showroom. A RHD Diablo SE30 in Viola, simply stunning.

Also kicking around was a very nice Countach, an Orange LP640 and a Verde Inthica Aventador.



Regards

Tim

Lovely. Did you see what # it was? One of my all time favourite cars.

Was the purple Aventador Roadster still there?

Or any Huracan's?

Hi there,

No sorry, made a point of looking for the number but was not sure where to find it.

Hi there,

The reason I went was to see if I could see a Huracan but they don't seem to have one yet.

No sign of a purple Aventador.

This is why my mrs is a nightmare. "You want me to take a picture of THAT?" she said. But then again apparently TVR's and E-Type's are ugly and an S2000 looks like an elephant has sat on the bonnet. Luckily I have trained my 8 year old lad quite well. When he saw the picture he said it looked like an old jag, until he saw the steering wheel.

The owner was in a shirt and tie, and I wondered if he dressed like that just for driving it.
