Hey guys, I'm very curious to know what the most outstanding car spots of 2011 were. There ARE rules to this. 1) It MUST be either on the road or in a car park. Dealerships and private collections do not count. 2) It MUST be from this side of the border. None from Carlisle or the parts in between, and 3) It MUST be from 2011, not from New Years EVE of 2010. Between New Years Day 2011 and the end of Saturday may only count. Posts CAN be made after Saturday as long as they are photos of cars seen this year. I preferably want to see the 5 best cars you hae seen this year and I will get the ball rolling with the next post.

I know the owner of the f40 spotted in ayrshire. He has a fab collection.

You'll be lucky to spot mine as it is always in for warranty work. Spoiler control failed a couple of days ago.

no offence but its hardly rare to see somethig special in scotland as there are ALOT of car enthusiasts up this way.

A better topic would be what cars have you seen out from december 24th-the end of today. just to see who the real hardcore are (not that theres that much snow)
