Doing a course in La Chaux de Fonds, the birth place of Louis Chevrolet. This was part of an annual anniversary meet.

A few from the regular Sunday morning classic car meet in Tokyo...

Where does that take place? I'll be back over soon and that looks like a very pleasurable way to spend a Sunday morning...

Have you come across a dark blue Stratos yet? Passed me early one morning in Ginza mid-week so I can only assume it was being used for a very exotic commute...
The meet takes place at the Tsutaya in Daikanayana: http://real.tsite.jp/daikanyama/

There is a small gathering most Sundays, but the next "proper" meet is 10th Sept, 7:30-9:00am.

The blue Stratos (it's a replica) is a reasonably common sight - it's quite often parked outside one of the restaurants on Naka-dori in Marunouchi at lunchtime.

Many thanks Voxy - might see you there...

Shame the Stratos is a replica - it looked superb

a few from Brittany - those of you following the mystery car thread might recognise the last car as one of the potential candidates...

Not yet sure if I'll make it on the 10th, but let me know if you plan to be there.

Also saw a pristine looking MG Montego Turbo travelling south on the M1 but no photo as was driving
That would be one of just 6 (poss 7) that are still on the road and taxed.

Colour/reg (year)?
Silver and, I think, E reg

As I live close to Brooklands Museum, we have a fair number of classic sightings:

Triumph TR4A; Split screen Morris Minor; Lotus Elan (1960s vintage); Austin 7; Triumph Herald 948....

One of my neighbours owns a MKIII E-Type Jag. Another of my neighbours owns a 1960s Ford Mustang convertible. I'll try and get some pics of the latter two over the next few weeks.

An interesting point – would you rather see a Stratos that looked superb, or not see one at all?

Personally I assume every Cobra (for example) that I see is not a real one – they still look great and make me smile.

Was rather hoping someone was using a high end exotic for their daily commute - a modern day Noel Edmonds if you like....

There is a guy in Tokyo with a collection of 20+ modern supercars - Aventador, Wraith, P1, F50, F40, G63 6x6 etc who uses them to commute. But he is in automotive media/promotion, so driving his cars is arguably part of his work.

Once or so a month there is someone who drives a Countach Anniversary into (I assume) work in the Yurakucho area.

Wow. That Chevy Stepside is very desirable. Probably the only US car I would consider.
